Tuesday april 5th. Luz de Gas. Is a nice, small and fashionable theater / disco.

21h. No more than 300 people. Expensive tickets can sit on chairs in front of the satge. The rest of us have to stand way back. Just after Axel Zwingenberge beggins to play everybody can sit in the chairs.

Charlie appears after Axel and Ben together with bass player. He looks great, relaxed, smiling and enjoying himself. It's sad but I think that 3 nights on a row in Barcelona is too much specially considering that yesterday night (april 6) Barça (Barcelona soccer team) was playing Champions League in the stadium. I guess that the attendance was even worse. I'll repeat again tonight.

I saw Keith in Barcelona withh the Xpensive Winos, Bill with the Rythmin Kings and now Charlie with the ABCD project and I have to tell you that all of them looked really relaxed and enjoying themselves and the music was great ! The only Stone that dissapoints me in his solo career is Mick even though I never seen him live.

Some local promoter claimed that Watts will also play Bilbao, but unfortunately don't see it happening. Enjoy tonight's show on my behalf!

The show reminded me Ian Stewart all the time. I am sure that he's having fun up there watching Charlie and his mates playing Boogie Woogie !

Un gran,gran repertori de boogie.(Amb una versió absolutament fascinant de Stormy Monday.)
Charlie somrient, i si Charlie somriu...tot va bé.
LLàstima de la poca assistència de públic.

Segurament el preu no va ajudar a omplir ...

Stones CAT said (in catalan) that maybe the price didn't hel people going to see Charlie. I disagree. I am sick and tired of people complaining on music prices. CDs are too expensive we better download free music, concerts are expensive we better stay home and wait for the free youtube version, etc ... They are killing music !

This is the same people that waste its money in silly things such as clothes, watches and GinTonics.

Please protect musicians !

CATALAN VERSION

Et contesto en català Stones CAT. Prou de queixar-se dels preus de la música ja sigui concerts o CDs o música del iTunes. Si realment t'agrada pots fer l'esforç de renunciar a altres compres tipis roba, rellotges o GinTonics i gaudir d'un bon concert, CD o comprar cançons a 99 céntims al iTunes.

Perdoneu, però algú ho havia de dir !

I drank a gin and tonic every three days!

Keith drinks 3 gintonics a day

How much for a ticket?

El rock and roll sempre ha estat car. Jo vaig pagar 900 peles a la Monumental,ja fa uns quants anys, i 50 euros pel Charlie al LDG l'altre dia. Perqúe les puc pagar. Però quants fans no poden comprar-se un cd o anar a qualsevol dels espectacles de pop que arriben fins aquí ? Ni estalviant en gintònics. Per cert un gitonic al LDG 11 euros!!!

Very good concert, Charlie is great!
Thank you SILVERTRAIN for all and for the spanish Blood Red Wine!
Espana is ever the best
