There is now an interview and full set from Bis live at Primavera on Ola’s Kool Kitchen on Radio 23. It’s now posted here

There’s live audio and an interview with Bis on New Ola’s Kool Kitchen this Wednesday 9th June 8pm GMT time on Radio 23. We will also be on ErrorFM this Friday 8pm PST. Will let you know podcast links once they’re up too!

We’ve been building up to this gig for a while now, and it’s over It went so well though, so definitely worth it! We were first on the San Miguel (main) stage. Amazing seeing the sea and a boat passing by from the stage, so very pretty indeed! It wasn’t too hot either, so perfect. As we were on so early it wasn’t packed, but certainly a good crowd and many familiar faces (James Jam NME, Kevin the biggest Bis fan in the world etc).

It was good being on early in the festival so I could stop being nervous and enjoy the rest of the fest! The backstage area was just for the Fall, Superchunk, Pavement and us so very relaxing. Stuart’s a giant Pavement fan so was in his element to meet them. The boys liked the San Miguel unlimited tap they could help themselves to, and I got into the Spanish mood with my Rioja wine!

We’re all a bit worse for wear today, but apart from one more interview it’s a day of no commitments. Sitting in the lobby of the hotel is fun as all bands are staying here and it’s really busy. Everyone just looks around with the ‘what band are you’ face. Awoke to hear the Pixies sound-checking today! It’s been so nice to do this kind of thing again, as we haven’t gone abroad with Bis for many years. As it was so fun and everyone seemed to enjoy it, it’s certainly something that I hope we get similar offers to do again.

It was hot and sweaty in Glasgow (rare!) but that didn’t stop everyone really going for it thankfully, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. It’s times like that when John and Steven don’t miss having hair I’m sure! Perfect for practicing for Spain as it’s going to be even hotter.

My Dad filmed it for me so I’ll try get something online shortly. Need to pack for going away Wednesday morning, and tie-up all my badge work. For the first time in 8 years Wee Badgers is closed! Scary, but I need to stay sane and enjoy events like this!

Thanks for all the wonderful comments on Facebook and Twitter I came home to last night, that makes me so happy! Will report more from Spain as I’m taking my laptop, camera and camcorder!
