I think the only way to properly celebrate the end of a 3 month long tour (aside from lots of sleep and homemade food) is to play one of the premiere music festivals around. A Sunny Day in Glasgow will end their latest tour this weekend with two performances at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound Festival. You can catch the band on Friday May 28th @ the Pitchfork Stage at 6:00pm and on Saturday May 20th @ Parc Joan Mirò at 3:00pm.

More info can be found here and here.

For those of you unable to attend Primavera you can listen to their performance on WFMU 91.1fm on Friday at 3:30pm EST.
