ENGLISH VERSION(go down for the Italian version):

WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR
After following 30 Seconds to Mars for most of their tour, in Italy but especially abroad ,over the last year, we, the Sicilian fans of the band (United Echelon of Sicily), started to think how unforgettable would it be to see a 30 seconds to mars concert in such a magic place as the Taorminas Greek Theatre is.
The theatre is an important venue which regularly hosts many theatrical performances and some important concerts too.
Some great artists, such as the Cure, Liza Minelli, Elton John and many others, already chose this theatre as a venue for their concerts, delivering some unforgettable shows that drew people from all over the world.
Now we were wondering if 30 Seconds to Mars would be interested in joining this illustrious list of artists, making us (if possible) the great gift of performing in one of the most beautiful monuments here in Sicily, with one of the most charming landscape of our wonderful land in the background, making the Italian fans and above all the Sicilian ones very happy and honoured.

SOME INFORMATION

The city of Taormina was founded in 396 b.C. by the native Siculans.
The most important and best-preserved ancient monument of Taormina is its theatre.
It was built on a wonderful panoramic point, from which the massive structure of the Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea are clearly visible.
On some steps of the theatre theres carved the name of Filistide, wife of Hiero II, the king of Syracuse, who probably wanted the theatre to be built in the III century b.C.
The theatre was rebuilt in the II century a.D., during the Roman age.
The cavea, i.e. the space where the spectators sit, is 109 metres in diameter and its divided into 9 sectors.
The Taorminas Theatre is the second one in Sicily for its size, and it boasts the capacity of 5000 people.
