Dear Barcelona,

I showed up to the Detroit Bar on Tuesday night with little expectation, having never even heard of you before I arrived, but from the moment you started playing, I was impressed.

What I immediately noticed and appreciated was your level of musicianship, not to mention what went on when you weren’t playing (but I will). Your posture from stage was inviting and sincere instead of pretentious, you looked like you were enjoying yourselves, and your transitions went smoothly. Your combination of musical excellence, showmanship and professionalism really separated you from everyone else. (I also liked the light inside the kick, it added an aesthetic that fit your style)

Then I went to your booth to buy a cd. You guys shook my hand, talked to me for a bit, thanked me for coming, gave me a free poster, and were as sincere off stage as on. You simply did everything right. Thanks for an amazing show, you’ve won a fan here.
