I just booked flights to Hydra for October 2012. I will be there, even if there is no conference, no music, and nobody else from this group. It will still be a pleasant few days. 

Of course, if some of you are going to be there as well, it will be better. If there's a conference, it will be better. If there is Rebetiko, it will be sublime...

Two months and nobody at all answered. It looks as if I will be the last mangas standing on Hydra. Am I really the only person going? Has Ed Emery been beamed up by aliens? 

Don't just sit there, answer, if anyone but me still likes rebetiko...

Για σου!

Hi Akritas, my friend. It isn't my list, it's Dave Murray's list, I think. Nice to know you are still around.

I'm just trying to find out if everyone but me has decided not to go…

Cheers,

Chris "Walrus" Blackmore

Hi Chris (et al),

I'd forgotten, due to the extreme silence from all sides—maybe Ed is in the hands of the space aliens!

Still lurking on this list, though, and finding the idea of October in Hydra rather tempting...

Cheers,

Mike

I'll be there, in spirit, as usual. I do hope that something can be
worked out so that those who are going can have a good time, even if
there is no conference. Perhaps, if there are enough of you, you can
bring your instruments and play together. If so, I hope someone
manages to make a recording!

Keep us updated,
Eleni

Hi Eleni,
I'm taking my baglama and my recorders. Shame I play so badly!
How's your bouzouki playing developing?
Best wishes,
Chris

Wait, I thought Ed Emery was under control of some alien force all along.

I will not be attending, but have fun walrus!

(ps-it's not MY list...it's everybody's...)

It's not. I've been far too involved with politics and debating on
Facebook lately. *smile* But I do still enjoy rebetika. Anyone who
wishes to add me on there can just look for the e-mail address that I
use when posting here.

Fun shall be had, to the best of my ability. Possibly on my own. Where is Ed?

Cheers, Dave, hope to see you again some day…

Though I'm not a frequent poster in this group, since I am partially indebted to all of your work presenting Rebetika online in helping me learn the music over the years (thank you!) AND since I'm currently living in Athens, Greece trying to make a living playing bouzouki, I suppose I could stand to go to Hydra and perhaps meet some of you. It's my birthday month as well so why not celebrate? But that's a bit far into the future and my life is not regular enough to plan so far ahead. We'll see, as they say in Greece.

It would be good to see you Bobby, but please don't blame me if there is no conference and no music! Without anything official from Ed, who knows?
