If enough    chordians  were   intrested  I'm sure  my  friend  janni who  has the   Lassion golden bay  resort    near   Sitia  would    put  a  deal together  for  every  one . We  gig    by  the  pool in summer  its  a  great  venue .

The  second  pic  was  Matala  beach  festival 2012 the  crowd  was around 40 k in total , It  was  fantastic  to  do this .

This  is  in the   UK Dino were back  in here  at  the  moment  hence  the  plug for  the  club ,were  not  back  in Crete  for  a  few  weeks .
yet .
how ever  to  answer  your  question  yes its  mainly  he  weather (for  me  at  any  rate )

I  thought  it  might  be  fun to try  and  encourage  some  of  us  to  post  our  favourite  gig pics so I'll start  things  off  with a  few  shots  of  me  doing   what  I  do  best  I.E  showing  off  to the  audience .LOL.

my  wife   has so  many  shoes  I  think  she  must  have  been a  centipede  in another  life ,her  mate  liz has a  dedicated  room  with  shelves  where she  shows  then off  each  pair  has  a matching  handbag hanging below .
I on the  other hand  have  3 which get  changed  when they  wear  out .

Thanks  Dino they  were  clips  from last  Augusts  end  of  summer  concert Manos  who  runs  the  local  station   did  a  great  job with  the  filming .I  always  enjoy  playing   at that  venue  in Sitia as it  has  a  great  atmosphere .There  are  events   throughout   the  summer at which all  the  local bands  get  an opportunity  to   do a  night the  council  fund everything to  help  boost  tourism and  the  tv cover  it  as  part of  the deal  so we  all  benefit .

I  think you  are right ,I think  also  this lack of personal involvement carries  over  into a lot of other  things.
