Plot spoiler: they turned out to be from Birmingham...

Today I walked through town and to my astonishment I heard music which was somewhat familiar. I altered my course as swiftly as I could only to discover there, in front of me, the legendary band that is Alborada! It is hard to explain my excitement at this, but I should probably attempt to do so. Alborada are a sort of pseudo-Inca band who are aimed almost entirely at tourists in Cuzco, and who were played in just about every restaurant we went to in that gringo-populated city. It was shortly after this that I was informed by Oli that he had also previously sighted Alborada in both Bury St Edmunds and Sheffield. Even more shockingly he claims they are from Birmingham.
As you can imagine I found that news rather shattering. But I'm trying to ignore it.
