Oh, dear,
I am SO mad for having missed your show in Madrid last month... No idea what happened, but the venue was small, tickets were gone way ahead of the concert date, and there was a general media confusion surrounding the whole Primavera Club thing.
I do hope the Primavera Sound "proper" works out better (it usually does). Any chance to catch you again in Madrid in the following 12 months?
On the other hand, to get back to the topic of your post, add my vote to "Tehilim" and "Third".
I would also add AC's "Merriweather Post Pavilion", but I can't really do this legally until sometime next week... ;-)
Happy New Year,
Kamen
