I don't think so, but they did play in Gijon in north-west Spain, in 2001.
And there was a report that Verlaine spent time in Portugal (can't remember
when).

While I'm at it... I can give you a brief second-hand concert review from
Gijon (which is a great little city, by the way). A friend of mine (another
fan of Cover!) was at the concert and told me about it. He was fascinated
and thrilled, but there were a few equipment failures that night and the
delays and interruptions dampened the atmosphere and excitement.

Later on that tour, I saw Television in Dublin -- a great night. Plenty of
tuning, but everything worked...
