Juanes is a big fucking deal. Huge. So much so that I kinda can’t believe he’s playing in Seattle. “La Camisa Negra”? A bop. “Es Por Ti”? Yes, it is for me. “Fuego”? Baby, I’m on fire! While in his earlier career he made cheesy pop rock—that we all rightfully ate up—the past few years have seen him hop on the reggaetón wave, making tracks that you can bump in the club. There’s an earnestness and palatability to Juanes’s work that endears him to people across the world, regardless of language. I’ve said a lot of events are unmissable, but I’m serious about this one. In a venue like the Moore, you can get up close and personal with a real live superstar—how about that! by Jas Keimig
