Got back from Spain a week ago, wanted to compliment you again on capturing the spirit of Madrid, and its fun side. (Though where was the ham? :-) ) When I saw the white streamers in Plaza Mayor, I told my friends my trip was complete, because now I saw something that matched what I had seen on YouTube. :-)

[AericWinter]

Cool, those streamers are still there?

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed your trip. ^^

[gorymilia]

cooles video danke fuers posten

[rhythm7a]

Very cool! You got some great shots in this. I'm a little disappointed there's no footage of you castanet dancing though as I'm sure you did.

[AericWinter]

I'm sorry, man. But that footage is classified.

[foxleyleon]

sehr schon , muy bonito.

[kim013523]

Those DRUMMERS are AWESOME!!

schön, dass Du uns Madrid zeigst :) ich bin noch nicht da gewesen!

Schöne Grüße aus anderen Seite der Welt :o)

[AericWinter]

Diese Drummer sind wohl jedes Wochenende dort. Unglaublich... die haben stundenlang gespielt ohne müde zu werden.

Viele Grüße zurück. Ich hoffe Dir geht's gut auf Deiner Seite der Welt. (=

eine neue Bekanntschaft?^^

[AericWinter]

Hahaha. YouTube Partner sind halt sexy! (c;

[SparklestheClown]

Great tour. I was there in 89' and the buildings seemed grey - the restaurant actually looked familiar. Maybe I went there. We ate squid, and some other things. It tore up my stomach. (For days and days) was only one day and night there. Had a mixed feeling about being there.

Bis Spater!

[AericWinter]

Well, I'm not much of a seafood fan... so I didn't have anything of the sort.

Madrid seemed a lot of things to me, but grey wasn't one of them. Maybe it changed a lot in the past 20 years?

[SparklestheClown]

I believe they actually did wash/clean many of the buildings after I was there.

My uncle is still in Wiesbaden, and I sure hope in the next 12 or so months to go see him! Will keep ranting until then - sparkles has more work to do!

[celestialsam]

I want to go! :)

[Emmalene]

you should maybe take a trip to Canada *nudge nudge wink wink*

Great video

[AericWinter]

Well, Canada's been on my to do list for the longest time. But if I ever went there, where would I stay? *nudge nudge wink wink*

[cynterslave]

Very nice! Madrid looks great.

[EdgyRootStudios]

Looks like you had a fantastic time!

[richfranz84]

Well thank you for the invitation.... I like the town crier. nice to know that there are still places where a man can speak his mind. The city looks beautiful and you looked like you were prepared for the heat.. : )

[AericWinter]

Liked my fan, did you? *g*

[itekisan]

Great music! Glad my ex gf ain't here with me, she would want to samba or salsa right away for sure! (And I'm sooo lazy, esp with the heat today - 32°C. I bet u got more over there, though... *g*)

Oh and the 2:13 girl is indeed cute! :) (Flirt idea: "Hey, now you've spoiled my film!" - "WHAT?" - "Yes, I wanted to show how boring Spanish people are... or aren't you?" - "I well am!" and from there you could be going... *smile*)

[AericWinter]

Hahaha, a new move, eh? That's going right in the arsenal!

[DallasGuyZ]

Quick question: What was the street march/demonstration for?

Random girl at 2:13 who smiled for the camera, LOL!

[AericWinter]

I wish I knew what the demonstration was for. Inconveniently, all the signs were in Spanish, which I hardly know a word of.

[Ciaela]

I was just going to comment that I DID like the music.. =\

Can't please everyone, I guess.

[AericWinter]

You never can. But I'm glad *you* liked it. ^^

[SomebodyIusedtoknow]

great video!

[EdEditz]

Beautiful images but I'm sorry to say the music sucked imho ^^

[AericWinter]

What would you have used? (No breaking copyright laws, though.)

[EdEditz]

Yes I know. The copyright free stuff isn't always much to write home about. But hey, the video was cool! Music can be turned off ^^

[musely81]

Yes I have to agree - great video but the music was a tad franetic and I turned it off too. Btw...u have prob shown us b4 but what camera do you use? I ask because it's really decent pic quality.

[AericWinter]

Really?

Well, I use merely used my trusty digital camera, a Samsung NV8. Unfortunately, I don't have a digital camcorder yet, but I hope to change that in the future. A digicam is much smaller and easier to carry around, though.

[ciarrella]

cool.

[random500]

Good timing. I'm going to Madrid next month. You have an eye for always making a city look interesting and fun.

[AericWinter]

You're right. But it just happens that I see something fun and interesting in every city I visit.

[speedyconkiwi]

ganz schön windig da!

[AericWinter]

Frag nicht nach Sonnenschein.

[xCANOCx]

schöne Bilder, macht echt paß das ganze anzuschaun :-)

[kazzart]

Nice one! Reminded me of my visit to Madrid last year.. u went to alot of the same places we visited too. :) So I take it u liked Madrid? I think both Madrid and Barcelona are beautiful cities. :)

[AericWinter]

Well, Madrid is a nice enough city. Very crowded, full of life. The weather was a little unexpected. This weekend's been full of rain. (Gaeri will probably complain to you about that.)

I haven't seen Barcelona yet. Which one did you prefer?

[Juliambo]

cooles video! ich hab mal ein jahr in madrid gewohnt. der typ mit dem regenschirm am anfang macht seinen job wohl schon ziemlich lange. der verdient damit seit mindestens 5 jahren sein geld :)

[AericWinter]

Das war ganz in der Nähe vom Museo Prado. Mensch, dann ist er ja ein richtiger Veteran!

[PockhuhnFilm]

Du kommst ja ganz schön viel herum!

[AericWinter]

Ja, geschäftlich. Macht aber nicht immer Spaß...

[skarlinx]

wtf? du warst hier in madrid ?!?! hätte ich das gewusst...

[AericWinter]

Noch bin ich hier.

Aber nur das Wochenende hatte ich für mich. Der Rest ist Arbeitszeit. Ich hoffe, ich kann noch das Museo Reno Sofia einschieben. Am Samstag habe ich nur das Prado geschafft.

Wusste gar nicht, dass Du in Madrid bist. Ich halte mich in Chamartin auf. Ist das weit von Dir?

[JXintheZ]

¡Hola!

[AericWinter]

¡Buen día! ¿Cómo estás?

[JXintheZ]

Muy Bien, Gracias!

[Squawk7600]

Great tour of Madrid, loved the way you worked in the people etc along with all the fantastic architecture! "Dancing to the drums"-- that looked fun!! Really enjoyed this, thanks for taking us along! (c:

[AericWinter]

As long as they don't mind, I kinda like to film random crowds and people because they represent a city just as much as its architecture does. For myself.

However, I have to be careful what I publish, there are rules about that.

I'm glad you liked it. (c:

[ppuerj]

the music papapapapa... pa pa pa pa pa. papapaparapa, papa ra papa papa ra papa ... is spoken in spanish?

[AericWinter]

Well, at least it sounded hispanic to me...

[orionpk]

nice

[muserine]

Soo beautiful! I wanna go to spain, too! :(

[AericWinter]

For an architect especially, I think Madrid and Barcelona must be a dream.

[karenergy]

I enjoyed this tour of Madrid! It was really really well shot and edited.

The ending was wonderful - people sitting relaxing by the river and then a handsome guy in black on a cool air vent/grate which could be interpreted as a live interactive moving modern minimalist temporary art installation!!

Um... I was going for a lot of adjectives! I suppose a simpler interpretation would be, "TP Grate!" Looks like fun!

Life is good in Madrid! :D

[AericWinter]

In fact, the air vent thing actually was an live interactive moving modern minimalist temporary art installation. I spoke briefly to the artist who kept working on it while we were walking around it.

I threw this video together quick and dirty from random footage I took this weekend. It could have been better, but I'm glad you liked the result. ^^

[Dinzla]

oooooh! the toiletpaper grid thingy!

It's all so pwetty! ^_^

..and you got a spanish fan! :O

[AericWinter]

The toilet paper thingy was spontaneously made by this Spanish artist who then invited people to walk through it. I totally love that kind of stuff.

Haha, I only saw that grinning girl when I reviewed the footage of the market later.

[bell02]

I think my brother wants to go there (along with Italy as well), he's studying architecture and art so that's why.

I'm not sure if I would go with him though, I'd feel more comfortable if I knew Spanish. (Because I still don't like visiting a country if I don't know at least a little of the language)

Oh well, looks like it was lots of fun though!

[AericWinter]

I can't really be the judge of living here, I suppose. I don't speak any Spanish, but if I really wanted to move somewhere, I'd learn the language. Not vice versa. LoL

[Barboy0]

the music goes nicely with the video

[AericWinter]

Gracias! I didn't have a lot of time to search ccmixter from Madrid. I guess I got lucky. (=
