Montreal is doing it again with summer concerts. All types of Latin music by popular artists live in concert weekly. The next upcoming concert on June 17, 2006 will be Raulin Rodriguez @ Caballeros Club.
For bachata fans and fans of Raulin in particular this is a surprise and a nice one too. I always thought that if (and when ) I see him live it would be in the DR or in the USA but this will be a nice treat.
I just called the owner to confirm the show, it's still on and the price range for the tickets is $30-$40.
Concert info:
Sábado 17 de Junio
Invita: Caballeros Club
Presenta: RAULIN RODRIGUEZ
Lugar: 7474 rue St-Hubert
Info.: 514. 272-6844
If any info changes between now and the show date I will post the details.
For my fellow Torontonians I did ask if there would be a show in Toronto and the owner said he did not hear anything about a Toronto performance. I say make the six hour drive down the 401. It's worth it.

Apparently, he is scheduled to perform in TO Friday June 16 at Latin Fever. Tickets are $25 ahead of time and $35 at the door and are already on sale.
With the current track record of some bachateros not "materializing" here, I will believe it when I see it. Enjoy!
That's good to hear. Luckily, I have the flexibility of attending either show whether it's in Montreal or Toronto but as you say the reliability of the Toronto shows are questionable now.
I will makes some calls tomorrow to some reliable TO contacts I have and I will post the info if it differs from yours. Montrealers will support him (I hope). If he's playing at Latin Fever in Toronto he will get a good crowd once people know about it. I will find out.
Recent disappointments appear to have stemmed from visa issues/problems with entry to Canada period...or thats what my sources have said anyways! Hopefully Raulin has a clean slate!!!
Lesley finally so I guess he is supposed to come. Let me know what you find out and if it's for real. I will look into it myself as well.
I agree drloca, I want to believe he'll be performing in TO but I don't want to get my hopes up either. I will keep my fingers crossed! If he comes to TO I will definatly be there for sure!!!
As soon as anyone finds out anything about the Toronto date, let us know. I would love to see this guy sing (especially, after not being able to find his latest cd).
I will probably have to wait until next month to get his cd from the DR when we go on vacation so seeing him live would be great.
I will be making two calls today which will definitely confirm the Toronto concert. Keep in mind everyone the issues surrounding cancellations in the past affects both cities. If it's cancelled in Toronto due to unforeseen circumstances the Montreal show won't take place either. As I said I confirmed the Montreal show last night with the host and I will do the same for Toronto today so everyone can feel comfortable.
As for me this show in Toronto has caused a dilemma because my heart is in Montreal of course but I know will get pressure from my Toronto friends to go with them. Anyway I will be at either show and I will decide soon.
Jrzyguy-
Hang in there. This is very odd that Canadian cities attract a Latin artist and not a major US city like NYC. After all it's only hour away (and less) by plane from Montreal to NYC or TO to NYC so Raulin may very well have something scheduled. I did check on the home page of bachata106.com but nothing was listed for Raulin. Keep checking.
Tarrantino-
Why do you have to wait to go to the DR to get Raulin's new cd? If you live in the Toronto area you can buy it asap at Super Latin Music (on St.Clair).

Okay I made some calls and basically the show is on in Toronto too. I would think that visa issues and such would be taken care of before scheduling the show. Tickets are on sale as drloca mentioned- $25.00 in advance. You can buy them at most Latin establishments in the city, at Super Latin Music for sure. The date is June 16, 2006. See the venue on the ticket.
All for now.
