latin grammy, sevilla, spain

latin grammy (1)

The Latin Grammy Awards are being held in Sevilla TODAY and I’m even more clueless about who anyone is than I have been over the past twenty years when the other Grammy Awards have been presented. Aside from the old-timers “Hall of Fame” entries, or the “the ones that died” homage I have no idea who most of the grammy artists are anymore. Which is then multiplied by LOTS when it’s a specific Grammy celebration here because I have not listened to music on Spanish radio since 1993 (when I stopped listening to commercial radio in general).

But, it’s still fun to watch all the excitement. Two 5-star hotels near my house have had a steady crowd of fans waiting outside hoping for a glimpse of their idols. Meanwhile, last night I found out by accident who Danny Ocean is because he had been in one of my all-time favourite tapas bars Casa Morales and left this chalk-written memento on one of their magnificent tinajas, quoting the title of his latest song.

ali kaye

I’ve known Ali & Kaye on Twitter for ages (and they have been real life best friends since 2011, though they live on opposite sides of the Iberian peninsula) so it was great to finally meet them both in person and take them out on a tapas tour. As they have both been to Sevilla before we decided to eat our way around Triana and it was a fabulous afternoon. Honestly these two are like a comedy team, funny AF and constantly playing off each other, and hey, they thought I was funny too! Always makes a nice change when people think I’m funny and not a cranky old cynic who hates everything and everyone (who me? 😇).

We even went into “overtime” going for a penúlitma after the tour was over and, since I was off the clock, so to speak, I finally felt able to swear properly again. Heck, by our final tapas tour stop we were already sharing pet photos and comparing scars à la Jaws (don’t ask, but I won!). I would have loved to spend more time with these two lovelies, so hopefully that will happen again before too long. Whenever people dis Twitter I always have many happy-making stories like this to counter all those cranky old cynics. 🙂
