Me Hotel, Barcelona, Spain: Prologue

So I am sitting in my hotel in Barcelona I am here for the start of the Fall Out Boy tour tomorrow and today as it turns out is the official launch of the Me hotel, a towering 30-storey glass complex. The band will be launching the Angels and Kings bar here - it's global domination! It's overcast and the odd drops here and there constantly threatened me as I reached the beach, a good 20 minute walk from the hotel. There is construction all over the town it seems but the architecture is amazing, a mixture of wildly contemporary and classical. I need to find time to see some Gaudi architecture and check out the rest of the city... this city is beautiful.
