Thursday June 29 Joaquin Sabina Tickets in Palau Sant Jordi at 22.00

Spanish singer, and one of the biggest and best around. Not really the kind of thing for tourists over on a stag night, but fantastic if you’ve lived here long enough to learn some of the language and appreciate this guy’s terrific songwriting skills. Spain’s answer to Tom Waits or somebody like that, his songs ooze of supping glasses of whisky on your own in a bar, thinking of what could have been. Anybody Polish or Serbian could probably do with a bit of this after their sorry World Cups.
