The concert on November 25 was special for Panos Gourgiotis and Pocket in Red, because it was the first concert after the release of the band’s first, self-titled EP. And also special, because it was combined with an appearance together with two important names of the English-speaking Greek music scene, Leon of Athens and Katerine Duska.
The concert was opened by Katerine Duska, accompanied by Dimitris Stasinos on acoustic guitar, who with her special tone welcomed and warmed the audience. A special moment was her performance in the song “Inside Dead”, by Attik, which touched everyone who was there.
The baton was taken by Pocket in Red, Panos Gourgiotis, Nikos Vogiatzakis and Pavlos Monastiriotis, who raised the tempo and intensity, to slowly start to stir the people in more groovy situations, culminating in the end, a medley of well-known songs from past decades and closing with the already familiar to the Brussels public “rock’n’roll”, since the video clip of the song was shot last year in Brussels.
Somewhere there came the low-key off-stage but so active on it, Leon of Athens, to take off the beautiful night, with people in the end even asking for encore. Which Leon did not deny, receiving the warm applause at the end, like all artists of course.
