You Review Juanes
They call him El Nuevo Boss, a nod to Bruce Springsteen. Others like to compare Juanes to Bono of U2.
Whoever he's compared to, there's no denying that the Colombian-born singer and guitarist is every bit an international rock star.
He was at Save Mart Center on Wednesday night. Were you? What did you think of the show? Did he unleash that star power? Live up to those comparisons? How did it compare to his previous Fresno shows? Better? Worse? How was the crowd?

It was FABULOUS. His concert was a big improvement from last year. This year he interacted with the audience. He took photos with people near the front row and asked the crowd to sing along with him. His live performance overall was great: his guitar playing and singing rocked (No lip-synching here).
He spoke about the victims of landmines and the need for peace in the world. Photos of landmine victims from around the world were displayed on huge screens. The pictures of children, women and men with missing limbs or legs were taken by a Spanish photographer.

One more note: I wouldn't call him El Nuevo Boss or compare him to Bono of U2. He's simply Juanes : a Colombian-born rocker who is a story teller and crafts powerful lyrics. He creates his own music: he doesn't mimic the other rockers. He's his own boss.
