I am heading to Barcelona for a week ( Sept.24th - Oct.2nd) and would like to know if there is anyone out there who can point me in the right direction for good music.

We're going to be there from the 13th to the 22nd of October and I was going to ask the same question, any good band playing then? Will be sure to check out the bars mentioned, some great looking bands - hope some of them are on while we're there!

We had a really good time at Las Guindas. Great music playing and really friendly people. I think we were there from maybe midnight to 4 am, is it a cafe during the day? Barbara Ann was cool too, though you could almost walk right past it and not know it's there.
We also went and checked out some of the Tiki Bars in town. Crappy dance music and every drink tasted the same at all of them (cheap cough syrup), but worth checking one out for the decor at the begining of your night.

Thanks! I've never been to Barcelona,can't wait! go.gorostiza said:

Overstocks (record store) doesn't exist anymore, but there's a new one that's worth checking out: Discos Juandó (only 2nd hand vinyl), just two minutes from the Picasso Museum:
