Politia Live Clubbing summer 2010

Politia Live Clubbing summer 2010 is a series of concerts by Greek pop/rock singer Sakis Rouvas with Greek pop singer Tamta, rock group CABIN 54, and upcoming singers Stefania Rizou and Eleana Azoukia as his supporting acts, with Giorgos Axas as his special series guest. The show was an extension of The S Club concert series and brought the show to Thessaloniki beginning on 14 May.

Background
Following five successful months at Rouvas' self-owned The S Club, Rouvas opted to move the show to Thessaloniki. This is Rouvas third consecutive summer series at Politia; he had first performed there with Peggy Zina in 2008, and continued his own performances in 2009 while also on a national tour, although this performance was not an extension of his Athens STARZ shows. Originally, the premiere date was announced as 7 May. The media speculated that due to further perfecting technical developments of the show it would finally premiere one week later, although the crew themselves did not actually comment on this. This was materialized when the show premiered on 14 May. Originally set for a six-week engagement, Rouvas told ANT1 News that they would also be present in the city in August, bringing the total number of shows to more than 24. The show was similar to The S Club shows, however, some changes were made: the Greek The X Factor contestant Eleftheria Eleftheriou was taken out of the program and rapper Gifted was replaced with Giorgos Axas. The deejay was also changed to Antonis Dimitriadis, who is the house deejay at Politia. Additionally, Rouvas performed in an entirely different wardrobe than his S Club outfits.
