Does anyone know of any bands that mix traditional Greek music with punk? In a similar way Flogging Molly do with Irish folk...
If you do, could you post links to mp3s, please?



I think it could sound good...

As an answer; no

however, on a related point, Flogging Molly are bloody awesome, easily the best band I have evr seen live, and I happen to be emo.

:p Manchester...if you're seeing them at the MEN as well, and you want free food/drink, try asking at one of the food stands for a guy called Keith, tell him you know Rob, Adam, Neil etc... It might work.

Weird, I'm going there too. Maybe we can pass each other and be non the wiser.

If I get desparate I'll do the food stand thing. :)

At least you live close enough to a big venue to see decent bands regularly, my closest real venue is Brixton, a 2 hour journey away.:(

Manchester's a couple hours away from me...it's going to cost me a small fortune to see the Pogues. It'll be worth it though...only reason I'm going there is because I get a free place to stay (and a free weed party afterwards...)

Anyway, this is getting kinda off topic...can't find anything on Google, but then I don't have the patience to go through hundreds of pages of results.
