I changed the line:

"Gus" is the English equivalent of "Kostas,"

to :

"Gus" is a common Greek American English tranlation of the name "Kostas".

The reason I did this is because “Gus” is not the English equivalent of “Kostas”. “Kostas” is short for Konstantinos, which translates to “Constantine” in English. Also in Melbourne, Australia (where I live), there is a large Greek population and “Gus” is never used as an English translation of the name “Kostas”, instead “Con” is used (short for Constantine).

The section on the wikipedia page talking about Gus G.'s gear might need some cleanup. It might. But if it does need cleanup, someone else needs to do it, since I don't really know exactly how to do it.

According to iTunes his full name is Konstantinos Karamitroudis. — Balthazar ^(T|C) 15:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I don't know if this is something worth adding, but he will be a guest star on the metal band Kamelot's new album. I don't know how to add citations, so if someone deems this worth adding, here is a link to the Kamelot website where they announced he would be a guest star: http://kamelot.com/2010news.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hirkonris (talk • contribs) 00:05, 19 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

It appears (at least I think) that the *are* sufficient inline citations now, it might be possible to remove that tag now.

The article mentions the upcoming second solo album without having any mention of the first album actually having been released since March 2014? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.227.95.128 (talk) 12:29, 17 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
