ROCKLAB

I was born in ATHENS (wich i will always love) but fate has brought me to live in the island of Rodos (wich i also love). I play guitar since i was 13 trying to get close to my "heroes", Ritchie Blackmore, Ulrich Roth, Gary Moore, Michael Schenker, Yngwie Malmsteen and later Eric Johnson, Zakk Wylde etc. Guitar and generally MUSIC was, is and will always be MY LIFE, MY BEST FRIEND, MY DEVOTED MISTRESS. During my "path" i had the oportunity to play with one of the most famous GREEK hard rock bands "SPITFIRE" (also slightly changed our name into SPEEDFIRE for record company reasons)recording one LP "100% LIVE" touring ALL OVER GREECE including support performances with IRON MAIDEN, SAXON and SCORPIONS. Also worked with top greek POP band "RIFIFI" and recorded one record with them "Ametanoita trellos" again touring everywhere in GREECE. Played for 5 years in "Sticky Fingers" bar in Rodos, the oldest and BEST live rock club, then "Roadhouse club" for 3 years then go back to "Sticky". Currently gigging at numerous places playing with the best cover band of the island "ENCORE" in VALHALLA Rock Bar at the bar street, but also playing with "The BLUE ORANGE band" at legendary old town's bar "Rogmi tou hronou" ("Crevice in Time"). PLAYLOUD's latest news is that he got BACK at the legendary STICKY FINGERS playing with "TRES HOMBRES" every SATURDAY and off course "ENCORE" at Valhalla every TUESDAY. Everybody welcome........
