This is where everyone (one of the many one off line ups of 2011 with Trigger returning on bass, Mark Braby on drums and Yusuf B'layachi moving to guitar for the trip- VEY lucky to have such a talented and versatile group of musicians to turn to) stayed in Vic, one of Vic and the gnu's favourite hotels, a truly unique place, very welcoming (especially from Mistu, the VERY friendly and loveable resident Jack Russell)and definitely recommended if you visit Vic, which is also highly recommended. It is a very piggy place and related products abound, so if you're not keen on meat, like the gnu,there are also lots of peppers, tomatoes and pasta and a local speciality- a very, very thick hot chocolate, for dunking in to and scooping out with the local speciality biscuit.

This is the whole gang-the Sect lot, the Vic lot and the Barcelona lot after the last gig in Barcelona, Vic was staying on to record and the rest were returning home the next day.
