Long time reader (from time to time) first time poster.
For some reason I have been playing my ass of these days.
You wanna set up a Montreal Oud meeting.
I believe park Lafountain would be highly suitable. Its already packed with every other kind of musician.
Let me know and when it would be convinient for you.

for it??fhalaw - 7-13-2009 at 11:41 AM
Yes, Guys and girls.
I know there are a bunch of Montrealers, but maybe a lot of people are out of town for their summer vacations.
Anyways, Let give this a couple of weeks gather the replies and then set one.

Hi, I'm in for a Montreal Oud meeting, although I'm still very new with Oud.fhalaw - 7-15-2009 at 01:16 PM
great we are 3 so far, anyone else?
Do you guys have any suggestion for the place?
I think parc la Fontaine is nice.
Fadisaddas - 7-15-2009 at 01:21 PM
Haven't been to Lafontaine parc but heard it's nice, so it's fine with me. For the time, Sunday after 1pm would work for me, but also open to other
suggestions.fhalaw - 7-16-2009 at 08:57 AM
Great, how about this Sunday at 3 at the Park (assuming the weather is nice )?
I will U2U my number so we can coordinate.
Anyone else whats to join us let me know so I can send you guys my number.
Hi guys,
I will be in montreal for my cuzzin's wedding in montreal on Sat.
I could meet up on Sunday but around 1pm would be better. I think that its going to rain all weekend so we might look for an indoor location.
what do you think of Al-Dar cafe on MacKay? they are friends of mine and they will host us really well.
I will check back here for updates. saddas - 7-17-2009 at 03:41 AM
Weclome aboard, SamirCanada. The earliest I can come Sunday is 1:15pm, but let's check if this also suits the others. If it rains Sunday, then El Dar
sounds great as a second option..checked the forecast now though and it says Sat rain but Sun no rain. Anyway, I am fine with Lafontaine parc if no
rain and El Dar if it rains.fhalaw - 7-17-2009 at 05:27 AM
Wow excellent, its fine with me both locations (Al dar happens to be 2 blocks away from my house) I am not sure is we are going annoy people though
its going to be lunch time.
Samir I will U2u my number if there is any confusion on Sunday.

By the way,
Does any one of you have a wide semi -soft risha I could take/buy from you. I lost 2 and my last one was broken by an idiot friend of mine. I just
have a narrow hard one.
Much appreciated.
See you all Sunday.
Fadisaddas - 7-17-2009 at 11:56 AM
I had two of those but broke one so have only one left. But I may be able to get some more from Egypt this summer.SamirCanada - 7-18-2009 at 04:59 AM
annoy people? impossible!! I am friends with the owners and I play oud there often enough its never been a problem.
no Risha over here either. fhalaw - 7-18-2009 at 05:29 AM
So 1:30 aldar , that works for all?
Anija are you still with us.
?
saddas - 7-18-2009 at 05:34 AM
I'm ok with Sunday 1:30 El-Dar. See you there!Anija - 7-18-2009 at 09:22 AM
hey guys... really sorry, but i'm in the middle east right now.... oud hunting!!! i am planning on being back in August... wish i could be there!fhalaw - 7-18-2009 at 10:07 AM
No its ok!!
When you get back let us know and show us the new oud !!!!
I am really hoping myself to go to lebanon and do some hunting of my own..
ANYWAYS, good news, two other people are going to be joining us. Samir since you know the guys at Dar can you call ahead and let them know (so no
surprises when the oud meeting..more like convention now.. rolles into town)!!
See you guys tomorrow.
FadiSamirCanada - 7-20-2009 at 04:13 PM
