Hello all,

We'll be having a casual get together to practice Portuguese, chat and share our collective longing for Brazil. This Thursday, we will meet at The Irish Bank. It's an Irish bar (obviously) but its got lots of seating and is well suited to speaking and being heard, grabbing a bit to eat and/or a pint.

Portuguese meetup at 7pm on Thursday, September 27, 2007 at The Irish Bank

Yelp says its in Nob Hill, but actually its in downtown San Francisco, 2-3 blocks from the Montgomery BART Station. We will be in the back room, which is away from the bar and more restaurant-like. You do not have to buy food. If you would like to come, RSVP on meetup.com so I can get enough tables for all of us. Bring your Portuguese language skills and join us!

Oi galera--

Michael has again taken it upon himself to organize a San Jose conversation. So in case you missed the last one, come again down to the Sonoma Chicken Coop for food, drinks, and meeting people who speak Portuguese.

This time it will be from 6 to 7 p.m. Michael asks, "Have people let me know if that's not a convenient time; we may just reschedule it for the week after at the original 7-8 p.m. time." You can reach Michael on his cell at 510-506-3078, or by sending him a message through the Meetup site (http://portuguese.meetup.com/292/member/4384015/).

Abracos galera!

Stern Grove, 19th Avenue and Sloat Boulevard, San Francisco
http://www.sterngrove.org/location.html

Os Mutantes reunites for a dynamic concert at Stern Grove! With their playful, energetic version of Brazilian pop, they are regarded as one of the most talented, radical bands of the psychedelic era.

One of the most original and exciting bands today, Venezuela's Grammy-nominated Los Amigos Invisibles will move the Grove with their Latin-infused dance grooves.


* The Grove usually closes before 1pm. I encourage attendees to arrive early: to save spaces, conversar e comer coisas deliciosos.

traiga um blanket e some comida para compartir.


I'm planning to arrive sometime between 8:30 and 9am to scope
out a nice spot.

I plan to wear a red feather boa hat and will have some meet up
signs... not sure yet how to make them visible.

If you have trouble finding me/the group, please call my cell
(415) 420-4516

looking forward to a fun show
