OFFBEAT News - Copyright of Karagouna


In our quest to find some sort of offbeat news this week, we discovered that residents in Trikala are fighting back at the "system" through common sense thinking with the copyright of Karagouna!

As most of you know all music shops, cafeterias, clubs and entertainment centers that play music in Greece are required to pay royalties to AEPI, but in these troubled times every penny counts and since AEPI is not lowering its fares, the residents in this small town decided enough is enough. This seems to be the reason why shopkeepers warned AEPI to come to its senses or they will take the case to court.

A report on trikalanews said at a Town Hall meeting the come back line that stole the show at a recent Town Hall meeting over the matter was given by the town's vice-mayor Theodore Spanos.

"If we hear "O Aetos" from Notis Sfakianakis royalties go to Sfakianakis, but what happens when we hear Karagouna Who gets the royalties" asked Mr. Spanos making the AEP totally speechless!

This is where the Greek idiom he sent him unread fits in perfectly... make your own translation!

(Smart comeback line, must be something about the name... - inside joke)
