Going to Istanbul

I will be in Turkey from oct 21 to oct 27 if there are any flamencos on the board in that area. It is mainly a friends wedding but I hear of a possible gig, mostly likely a rumba gig but who knows. So if anyone wants to meet up in that area I will be there all week!

I was in Istanbul a couple of years ago. You will love it! There did not seem to me to be much of a music scene, I expected more. Hopefully you will find it more to your liking.

Good luck
