Hopefully Detroit will be full, it's practically an arab republic :) I'm glad you had fun.
Very true about the publicity. I was lucky to come across this website, because I had not heard of the tour even 4 weeks ago. so merci ktiir bashar
: What a night...
: 9 PM the pearl enters the stage singing b7ebak ya lebnan...This was my first experience in attending a concert for fairouz. I loved her legacy and formality in the way of singing standing straight in the same exact spot all the time. Indeed she touched a lot of people last night throughout her 2 hrs of singing. Changed her cloth twice. first time the colors were balck and gold. The second time, baby blue color I think?
: She sang my favorite song, "Shady" and of course towards the end. Nassam 3alyana el hawa that she repeated twice before leaving.
: I just wanted to comment on some people's saying that there was a lot of empty seats not filled.
: 1- Fairouz is holding 3 concerts in the USA, people tend to go to the one near them (a closer state)
: 2- You cannot compare this tour with the Vegas one because, it was one concert and people met from all arround the states to attend it.
: 3- I don't think a lot of publicity was done. I know that it was in some of the newspapers. Like beirut time for example and on the internet, elderly people do not go online as frequent. I think publicity should have been more organized? What do you guys think?
