Franz Ferdinand
A couple of months ago, at the beginning of April, Franz Ferdinand had the great idea of including a date in Barcelona on their tour. Not that I would not have seen them otherwise though: I saw them last summer at Rock en Seine and that was the exact reason why I decided to buy my ticket for their gig in Barcelona. Of course, I didn't know at that time that they would also play at Solidays (yes, at the end of this month). So in the end, I would have seen them three times in a year... Few bands could say the same! I have been following Franz Ferdinand since their debut album -with more or less attention, it's true. Maybe their second album didn't fascinate me that much, for example. I quite enjoyed the last one but the real surprise for me came from the fact that it had been a while I hadn't seen them live. And that show at Rock en Seine was such a complete in-your-face reminder of how good they are on stage! Not only good... Just so much better now than they have ...
