You Look Like Demis Roussos!

Posted on January 6th, 2010 in Europe

Happy 2010!

How do you start off the new year, let alone, a new decade on your blog? I wanted to start with something that was non-photography/non-Collodion related. There will be plenty of that coming this year.

Every where I go in Europe, especially in Holland and Germany, I get comments about looking like a famous European singer, Demis Roussos.

It happened at a Döner last night. A young Romanian guy asked me, “Where you from?” in that great eastern accent. He was real curious about where my birthplace was. I think he was convinced that I was Greek and related to Demis.

So, next time when this happens (and there will be a next time, believe me), I’m going to get some milage from it - Demis Roussos now has a son - me. Here’s how it goes: “Well, Demis is my father. No, it’s great to meet you! Oh, a free Yufka Döner? Why, thank you. I’ll tell my father you said hello.”
