Daydream festival is one of the most important rock festivals in Barcelona, almost as Summercase (Summercase festival tickets). This year Daydream festival 2008, at June 12,  with the list of acts still not closed, is completely based on Radiohead. The English band published their last album, In Rainbows, at 2007, and will offer in 2008 only one conert in Spain, and will be at Daydream Festival. So you should buy Festival Daydream - Radiohead Concert tickets soon, as full house is guarantee.

Radiohead is a rock band that needs no introduction, since their 1997 album Ok Computer turn them on worldwide stars, and became one of the most acclaimed albums of the ’90s. Radiohead’s last album has been very successfully, giving fans the option to pay whatever they’d like for downlading the album from Internet.

Daydream festival will be a great party, with Radiohead and the other bands in the festival, wich all hold some type of relationship with the english headliners. If you are a fan of the english band, and of good rock in general, don’t forget to buy Festival Daydream tickets.

Exactly one month is left to THE MATCH: Real Madrid vs FC Barcelona. This year the great challenge will be in the 36th round of La Liga. It will be a very hot moment, because after this round only two more games will be left to finish the championship. For this reason FC Barcelona is obligued to win at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium if they want to have some possibility to reach the first position. Today it seems impossible… see barça wining La Liga is a dream for the catalonian team supporters, but Real Madrid is playing very irregular and 7 point are not an insurmountable obstacle.

Be sure that will be a great spectacle. No other match in Spain attracts so many attention like Real Madrid - Barça. It’s for sure the most important match of La Liga championship.

You still can get the last available Real Madrid - FC Barcelona tickets for several categories at Tickets in Spain, a reliable spanish ticket shop. You can’t miss this match, we will be there!! For those who can’t attend the match, we will confirm in the next weeks what spanish television will broadcast the event.

Barcelona city derby will be played 20 of April, at FC Barcelona’s home, Camp Nou. Every year this match has a special feeling for two teams.

At this moment FC Barcelona needs to win all the matches from now until the end of La Liga, if they want to beat Real Madrid. They can’t lose no match in order to reduce the 7 points that separate them from the leader.

But RCD Espanyol is there to spoil the culés dreams. The two local Barcelona teams dont’s feel affection for each other, and RCD Espanyol supporters (pericos) are fed up of being considered the second or the losing team in the city. So they are wishing to get an historical victory at Camp Nou to demoralize Fc Barcelona football club once and for all, as well as to approach to the UEFA cup positions, wich is their main objective this season.

What will be, we don’t know. Very very few times Espanyol obtains a victory at Barça’s home, but pericos, takint into account the irregular season of their opponent, think that 20 of April FC Barcelona can have a bad day and be defeated….. mmm maybe they don’t realize that for that day Messi’s back!!

You can attend the match buying FC Barcelona - RCD Espanyol tickets at Tickets in Spain. We are sure it will be a great match, few times you can see FC Barcelona supporters screaming so loud against the visitor team. RCD Espanyol is likely the most detested team at Camp Nou, after Real Madrid of course. So if you are in Barcelona and buy tickets for the match, decide before wich Barcelona’s team you are going to cheer on!!

And Now for Something Completely Different… Today is time to talk about Music. Yes, not just music… we’re talking about Music. Because Summercase festival isn’t just the typical summer music festival. Is more than this, is one of most renowned music festivals that you can find along Europe. Make a note, this year it will be 18 and 19 of July.

Year after year, since 2006, they have been improving the organization, facilities and the quality of the bands and artists engaged. Last year they brought us the unique chance to watch the incredible shows of Chemical Brothers, PJ Harvey, Scissor Sisters and some more unforgettable bands.

For Summercase 2008 edition the list of acts is still not closed, but we already know most of the stars that will be playing, and in Tickets in Barcelona we love some of them:

• Sex Pistols: The kings of punk are back!! You can’t die without seeing a legend like them life.
• Grinderman: The alternate band of the music geniuos Nick Cave. They come to Spain from Australia to fulfill our needs of good rock music.
• Kings of Leon: One of the best contemporary rock bands. You can accuse them of being not original, of not doing anything Black Crowes didn’t do before… we just say that they sound great and rocks like no other nowadays.
• The verve: The mythical brit pop band, they need no introduction.
• Primal Scream: One of the few bands that kept the rock alive at nineties. Another legend.
• The Stranglers: One of the leaders of the new wave. Everybody still remember their hit “No more heroes”.
• The Breeders: One of the best bands of the grounge years. Unjustly forgotten, and always under the shadow of Nirvana, you should get some of their albums (if you don’t have) and listen carefully. They rock really well.

Those ones are some bands we emphasize, but together with them at Summercase Festival 2008 will be more artists, like Interpol, Kaiser Chiefs, Mogwai, spanish stars Los Planetas, Cornelius, Edwin Collins, The Raveonettes and more… to sum up, two days full of rock music in Barcelona, at the Parc del Fòrum venue. You can get Summercase Barcelona 2008 tickets at Tickets in Spain y you want a summer full of rock in Barcelona.

Summercase Festival 2008 takes place in Madrid too, at the same dates, and with the same list of acts. The bands play one night in Barcelona, and the next in Madrid, alternating the days of the show but with the same global list of acts. If you will be in Madrid at 18-19 July, you can get Summercase Madrid 2008 tickets too.

La Liga has a surprising team every season. In Spain clubs spend a lot of money in players and you never know when a little team becomes an important one.

This season this role is for Getafe CF, a team from a little town in Madrid. Last season, with Bernd Schuster as coach, they played good football and get UEFA cup classification. Surprisingly the new coach, Michael Laudrup, not only continued with the good football but even  the team has improved and they will play soon UEFA Quarterfinals against a big of Europe: Bayern Munich (Getafe CF -Bayern Munich (UEFA Quarterfinals) tickets)

FC Barcelona is further from the leader Real Madrid every week. Currently few Barça supporters (culés) believe that they can win La Liga. But nothing is impossible and with a victory at Getafe’s stadium plus a Real Madrid fail, they can be up to 4 points from the top of the classification.

It’s told that FC Barcelona football club is more than a club, and it’s true. They can do the best football if they want to. With stars like Messi or the-every-day-better Bojan La Liga is not a thing to spoil right now. They must prove it in their next home match against Getafe. The cules are waiting for it.

If you want to see the air at Camp Nou in an important match like this, you can get FC Barcelona - Getafe CF tickets at Tickets in Spain. You can be one culé more cheering FC Barcelona at their home, and helping them to dream with wining La Liga again.
