17:15 - 18:30 Meeting at the Private Meeting Room kindly offered by the Hotel's Director to play on guitar and sing Leonard Cohen songs all together and keep on talking. If you are late, please ask at the reception desk where the meeting room is to join us. I won't know it till the very moment.
18:30 - 18:45 Time to go to your room (if you stay at the hotel as some of us do) for the last preparations for the concert (going to the toilet, taking a coat, taking the camera...etc.)

Please, bring some distinctive mark (a Cohen T-shirt, pin, ring, book, cd, or whatever...).
I'll be at the hotel at about 13:00. Obviously, I don't know the room number I'll be given. I'm 1'86 height, I wear glasses and I'll be wearing a black Unified Heart Order T-Shirt and an all-saints bracelete.

Re: 1 LAST REMINDER FOR MADRID MEETUP /ÚLTIMO AVISO PARA MAD
In case you are a little bit late: Today I've been writing to the Hotel Convencion's Director to arrange and confirm everything for tomorrow and I have just got an e-mail from him reporting me that our private meeting room will be the so called "SALÓN LA PAZ" ("THE PEACE" MEETING ROOM). Ask for it at the Reception desk.

Re: Madrid meetup
Thanks to Daniel (Dreamermusic) for organising the Madrid meet-up. It was nice to speak to likeminded people and put some faces to names.
Of course, the concert was amazing but did we expect anything else!
Looking forward to the next one - hopefully in the UK next year.
