German iconic post-cold war band Scorpions visited the "Ark of the World" foundation in Athens, yesterday, within the framework of a series of concerts they are giving in Athens.
"Ark of the World" was founded fifteen years ago by father Antonios Papanikolaou to offer shelter for needy children and abused and unwed mothers.
The band along with hosted children sang their popular song "Wind of Change", and were given a tour of facilities along with a detailed briefing of the activities and work of the philanthropic foundation.
In an interview to Mega television channel, band frontman Klaus Meine, spoke of the warm relationship between the band and the Greek public, adding that he was well aware of the plight of Greece and his hope that Europe will step in.
On September 11, September 12 and September 14, German hard rock legends Scorpions will play three concerts in Athens, under the banner "MTV Unplugged - Scorpions Live In Athens" at the Lycabettus Theatre over the roofs of the ancient city. For the first time in the history of the "MTV Unplugged" series, a concert in Greece under the open sky will take place.
