Well, The Barn is a kind of little haven of various musical instruments and people who are related to Keane, or in Keane... its a little place that we've set up. I mean, the whole process of recording is just, y'know... going to a studio, especially if you go abroad, is obscenely expensive - and in some ways is lovely and its nice to go away together on a bit of a jolly, but The Barn is basically a very easy and good place to go to get stuff done quickly and in our own time. And we love it there, we love hanging out there and we've got everything we need - and its sort of a mid-point for all our homes, so we can all sort of convene there whenever we need to get things done. I guess its just a simple easy way of getting us all together and getting our heads together... and also I guess, an easy place for Tim and Richard to store their multitude of ridiculous instruments that they don't need, that they seem to keep buying hehe... and my one microphone, which sits there on its own and feels rather lonely!

vocabulary: "a jolly" in this sense is probably best thought of as going off on a holiday with your mates for a good time.
