SamirCanada coming to California


Who's up for another summer jam session?
Let's make him feel at home in SoCal.
He'll be here in a month.

Hey guys,

I should be in the LA area the end of September with some shows - hopefully will have time to hang out. :) Have fun in August!

By the way, a very incredible oud player, composer, and teacher will be moving to LA very soon if all goes as planned (we're losing him from the East Coast).

;)

I too will be in L.A. during the last weekend of September for a conference.

Mav., I'd love to check out some shows if you can give me a heads up. I've never been to a live oud performance.

Ha! Thanks, but not in my wildest dreams buddy.

Once things are more certain I'll let you know about your newest import.

For now, I hope you have a great time with everyone in August, and hopefully I'll be seeing you guys in September/October. :)

Okay...got some information.

First of all, if you are interested in Sunday's gathering at my house, please email me for my address.

Also, I've got the details for Afif's performance on Saturday. It's an early one. Starts at 1:00 pm.

Hollenbeck Park
415 South St. Louis Street
Los Angeles, CA 90033

Unfortunately Afif won't be able to make the Sunday get together, because he's going to be at the Mendocino Middle Eastern Music Camp. Wael won't be there either. He hasn't returned from up North yet and won't be here by Sunday either. We'll still get together and have a good time though.
