We never finished the blog! Oh dear! I suppose you all just assumed that we stayed in Spain, and set up new lives for ourselves there? Well it did cross our minds.
Anyway, the four days in Madrid were great fun. Barcelona was rainy, but nice, and the journey back to oxford (via Bordeaux and Paris) was LONG.
We spent a day in Madrid at RTVE (which is like the Spanish BBC) promoting the shit out of ourselves. We did a radio interview/acoustic session at 10 in the morning and then later that day recorded for 'Los Conciertos de Radio 3' on La2 (BBC2?) in front of a audience made up for people apparently pulled from the street. You guessed it... it was pretty weird! But probably the best thing ever at the same time.
You can
listen to our session and interview on Radio 3 Espana here. Please bear in mind that it was 10 in the morning, live, and completely unrehearsed. I think the DJ was called Magda, and Noemi from Acuarela kindly did the translating.
and here are the videos:
