La Oreja de Van Gogh performs for 15,000 fans in Valencia

La Oreja de Van Gogh performed for 15,000 fans at the Roig Arena in Valencia, marking the first of two sold-out concerts in the city. The event featured the return of original lead singer Amaia Montero as part of the ‘Tantas cosas que contar’ tour.

The concert focused on the band’s most successful early era, including hits from the albums ‘Dile al sol’, ‘El viaje de Copperpot’, and ‘Lo que te conté mientras te hacías la dormida’. Notable songs performed included ‘20 de enero’, ‘Rosas’, ‘La Playa’, and ‘Cuídate’. Montero made a dramatic entrance via an elevating platform and frequently engaged the crowd, turning the arena into a collective karaoke session.

During the performance, Montero expressed her affection for Valencia, noting the band's history in the city from their early days at Sala Arena to the current spectacular Roig Arena. Despite recent social media scrutiny regarding her vocal performance, the atmosphere was described as a nostalgic celebration for a generation of fans.
