Pedro man I hear what you say'ing, as a matter a fact I wuz supposed to head up early this summer but had some business to take care of therefore I could not make it.  You see I'm a big boxing fan as well as a big time salsa, merengue fan.  There wuz some big boxing show taking place early this summer too bad I missed it but hearing what you just mentioned in regards to the artists performing en Montreal, I gotta go soon!  I've been to Montreal many years ago so I ain't too familar with gett'in around the city but I'm sure I'll find my way around plus I got friendz who have lived there in the past now living en Toronto.  Montreal es mejor when it comes to jamz, Toronto as much as I love my city just don't know how to party.  Last time I visited Montreal I wuz surprised to see so many Dominicanos and Chilenos at the clubs.  I believe the club wuz called Salsatech I'm sure you've heard of it.

Wow! I feel bad for you guys in T.O. .....It was the opposite this year in Montreal where the latin community were more than satisfy with the organizer by bring in us some good artist like Aventura in June. In July, Fulanito y Voltio (reggaeton group de puerto rico), Shaggy and Maxi Priest were here for Montreal Reggae Fest.

Still in July 22nd-23rd, Joe Veras, Tito Rojas y Papi Sanchez were here for el Festival de Merengue de Montreal with a very good crowd even though it was raining the 1st day, the people were dancing. On July 29th, Alex Bello, Elvis Crespo, N'Klabe (salsa group de puerto rico) made the public dancing until late at night. And now last friday August 4th, Magic Juan y Elvis Martinez put on a nice performance for the many muchachas y mujeres that were here and it finished by a delicious reggaeton contest on stage. Up to now, I can't complained for what we received in MTL.

I would suggest you guys to support the latin fest august 12th, go and see Qbanito (Montreal hispanic reggaeton group) who's having a blast in Montreal at the moment passing over some french artist in Québec among Quebecers too. You'll definetly dance with them on stage. The next day on Sunday, I am going to Qbanito but here in Montreal and Yaga y Mackie (reggaeton group from Puerto Rico) will be closing the show for the Guatemala cultural day. For all these event la communidad latina (hispana) ha apoyado los eventos.

And I hope you'll all do the same for the Latin Fest in T.O.

and also do not hesitate to come in Montreal when you see artist and show that you'd like to see. Organize yourself with friends for rides here. Don't let these artist pass by. There's a 6 hour-drive for a ride between Montreal and Toronto.

The organizer were so good this year, that I had even forgot that Amarfis performed last July 15th, Criollo on July 29th and last Sunday for Cuban cultural day..the invited artist was Eddie Santiago. I hope it will be the same thing next year.
