The press conference

So, finally, let me tell you about the press conference in Madrid on Tuesday.

Wow, what an afternoon it was! I made my way over to the hotel where the press conference was being held with my two red boxes in tow. The room at the hotel was a hive of activity, with loads of journalists, photographers and film crews buzzing about ready for the start of the press conference.

A huge array of stars of the music world were already mingling in the lobby. Eva Amaral, of the Spanish group Amaral, was looking particularly glamourous. She is a huge star in Spain and Latin America, and is a great asset to the Make Trade Fair campaign here in Spain. Amparo Llanos, of the group Dover (another huge band in Spain), was also there, along with many others.

And, of course, not forgetting our very own Chris and Jonny, who turned up looking very excited, and maybe a little bemused at all the attention they were receiving. The great thing about the Coldplay boys is that they are very unassuming, and really do seem genuinely surprised to receive such attention.
