La Oreja de Van Gogh offered a special concert alongside Amaia Montero, their original vocalist, revisiting the songs that marked several generations. The audience, of different ages, sang along to every song with total dedication. The band from San Sebastián proved that their music remains relevant after three decades of career, connecting with attendees through melodies that are collective emotional heritage. Montero's presence added a nostalgic value that reinforced the bond between the group and their followers.
The sound engineering that supported the reunion 🎧
Behind the reunion was a notable technical deployment. The sound system, configured with state-of-the-art line arrays, allowed for uniform coverage throughout the venue. Large diaphragm condenser microphones were used to capture Amaia Montero's voice with clarity, while in-ear monitors ensured precise tempo among the musicians. The real-time mixing required a parametric equalizer to avoid feedback, given the volume of the audience. All of this ensured that every note of classics like Rosas sounded without distortion.
The dilemma of choosing a song to go to the bathroom during the concert 🚽
At a concert like this, the only serious problem is deciding when to go to the bathroom without missing a great song. Because, let's be honest, there's no bad time to pee, but there are terrible times: right when the first chord of Cuídate or El último vals plays. The audience, in full nostalgic ecstasy, preferred to hold their bladders rather than miss a single second. In the end, the true hero of the night wasn't the sound technician, but the one who managed not to get up even to applaud.
