Notes (by Corrine and Ronny):
* The venue not just looked pretty impressive, it sounded almost perfect – maybe Benaroya Hall (Seattle) level – really really good!
* As it was all seated, and to respect the venue, it was more a quiet show.
* The whole band was in a good mood, so they jammed a lot, songs almost never ended – ‘Moving On’ was a highlight in this category.
* Lisa Hannigan’s ‘O Sleep’ was big fun as Glen didn’t appear to know the words and wasn’t able to read them from notes on the floor – it was a good improvisation.
* ‘Passing Through’ was fun as a guy in the audience had a guitar with him, so Glen asked him to lead the band through the crowd
* Glen pretended to call Zurich several times throughout the show to tell the people there they were not coming because they liked it better and had more fun in Barcelona
