Juanes Sings for 'Peace Without Borders; It's the BOMB!

Some of Latin music's biggest stars plan to join Juanes to perform a free concert atop a bridge linking Colombia and Venezuela in a show of unity among neighboring South American countries still recovering from a diplomatic crisis.

Others scheduled to perform: Juan Luis Guerra, Miguel Bose, Carlos Vives and Alejandro Sanz.

Juanes, the Grammy-winning Colombian rocker, said the "Peace Without Borders" concert _ scheduled for Sunday _ is an effort to ease tensions caused by a Colombian raid into Ecuador to kill a top rebel leader on March 1. In response to the attack, Ecuador and its ally Venezuela briefly sent troops to their Colombian borders.

"We want to consolidate the union between our peoples," he told reporters Tuesday by telephone from the Dominican Republic. "We are brothers and sisters, we are equals. We just have to raise one flag together, the flag of peace."

The artists will perform on the Simon Bolivar Bridge linking Cucuta, Colombia, and San Antonio del Tachira, Venezuela, while fans from both countries line the banks of the narrow Tachira River that marks the border, local officials said.

It is tempting to diss the stars not there, but I understand they could have prior commitments or other reasons for that.

Latin pop, rock stars sing for peace


The Associated Press

Tens of thousands of Colombians and Venezuelans flocked to a border bridge on Sunday for a free concert that Grammy-winning rocker Juanes organized to help heal the worst crisis in Andean relations in decades.
Held atop the Simon Bolivar bridge connecting the northeastern Colombian town of Cucuta with San Antonio in Venezuela, the show also featured Colombian singer Carlos Vives, Dominican Juan Luis Guerra and Spain's Miguel Bose and Alejandro Sanz on the playbill.

Below the span, which was draped with a huge banner reading "Peace Without Borders," thousands of fans dressed in white enjoyed the music in a dried-up river bed.

Juanes' idea for the concert was born out of a bitter quarrel that started March 1, when Colombia launched a commando raid into neighboring Ecuador to kill a leading rebel commander and nearly two dozen other members of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC.

Venezuela and Ecuador both withdrew their ambassadors to Bogota in protest and sent troops to their borders with Colombia.

The three nations' presidents shook hands and reached a tentative detente soon after at a Latin American summit in the Dominican Republic, but Juanes, a Colombian, decided to push ahead with the concert to promote good neighborly relations.

"As a Venezuelan, I am happy that we are strengthening the peace with our Colombian brothers," concertgoer Alvaro Riano said Sunday as he hawked white T-shirts to the crowd.

"Music is a weapon of peace, and the people who came here, came ... to listen to the music," Bose told Caracol Radio before the concert.

Colombian President Alvaro Uribe had planned to attend but canceled on Sunday, saying Juanes' manager asked him not to come because the show "was not to be a political event."

_______________________________________________________

We spoke with Juanes in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on his way home.

So why a bridge?

``It would have been much more practical and simple to do it in a city, but the border is a symbol of peace between all countries. And this message is for everyone, all the countries in Latin America and the U.S. as well.''

Do you think this concert -- or music -- can really make a difference?

``It's not that a song by Alejandro or Carlos is going to change people. But music becomes an excuse to send a message, that we're all here together building peace, that we are here as citizens and this is what we want, and we have to be heard. I think the governments have to understand and listen. We don't want to get involved in conflicts between people. We've had enough internal conflicts.''

How did the artists react when you invited them?

``Incredible. They immediately said yes. Everyone was super responsive. I think they all share my feelings: How can we use our music to support this, use our art for something important?''

Do you think artists have a responsibility to use their fame to help?

``It doesn't cost us anything to do something positive, and we've enjoyed so much love and support from people. In my own case I feel it as an obligation.''

Grande Juanes, se le ve el crecimiento como persona. Pese a su historia que lo a inclinado a un pensamiento de derecha, en este concierto no salio con la misma rhetorica que usan los politicos sino que se enfoco en lo que es importante que es la paz. "El futuro de un pais no tiene que ver nadamas con un gobernante...La ciudadania es fundamental". Hizo bien en decirle a Uribe que no fuera.

However, thank god there are musicians like those that took part in this event that realize the importance of spreading such a positive and vital message.

Rikito says on Mar 17, 2008, 09:12:

MitchAlvarez why are you are so f*** ignorant? Shakira has done more for charity than all of the "entertainers" at the Peace Concert combined. Hell, she has probably donated more than most of these men ever made. I heard that she has given and or raised over $200,000,000USD to charity…$45,000,000USD of her own money. Through her work she has supported programs for Adoption, Fostering, Orphans, AIDS, Children, Education, Environment, Health, Human Rights, Hunger, and Poverty. Shakira also supports charities such as: ALAS, Live Earth , ONE Campaign, UNICEF, Pies Descalzos, Treatment Action Campaign and she is currently a UNICEF Goodwill Amabassador. What have Juanes and the other male singers done for charity besides this concert? No doubt that Juan Luis Guerra and Miguel Bose have given to charity over the years, but what else has Juanes done except cheat on his wife.

So why dis on her? I think she is currently on a world tour that was was planed for over two years. This Peace concert was planned about 2-3 weeks ago. Why not dis on the organizers…all of the singers were male…no women…why? Sure, they are all good singers and deserve a great deal of recognition, but it looks like there was a heavy male bias for the featured performers.

The concert was a wonderful effort…anything is that promotes peace is valuable, but don’t jump on someone who has contractual obligations elsewhere in the world. And someone like Shakira that has made a huge and continual effort to help so many people. The quality of the concert was average and all I saw was a mass of confusion before a new act came on stage along with poor sound quality. But, it was still a great thing to do and certainly worth the effort.

But Mitch, my man...How come no woman names were featured at the concert except as back-up support? Hell I'm sure Piedad would have showed up if she were invited. She is always ready to be seen in public. And with that big ass of hers she would have rocked the entire continent.

“Shakira once again proves she's a fake Colombian"? Mitch, I think the only fake in here is…you!

Rikito says on Mar 17, 2008, 10:07:

My point is that Mitch just jumped on Shakira without even looking into what she does to help the less fortunate. Calling her a fake is just f***ing ignorant. I like some of the music that Shakira has as I do Juanes, but it is ignorant for Mitch or anyone else to paint a singular act as the pathway to the Noble prize. How long has Shakira been around and how long has Juanes been around? Both do a tremendous amount of good and no doubt Juanes deserves a ton of attaboys for what he did yesterday. But don't jump on someone becasue they may have had other commitments 3,000 miles away and then call them a fake.

Again...why no females acts at the Peace concert?

Shakira just sent us this message in regard to her absence at the upcoming Concierto Paz Sin Fronteras concert…

“Regretfully, it is impossible for me to attend this event and I am saddened that I can’t be there on Sunday.

I wish you all a grand concert, I’ll be here wearing white, accompanying you, and know that my Colombian heart is with you all today and always, above any impossibility and border.

As a Colombian, I am relieved to know that the relationship between our countries have normalized, and I yearn with all my strength that there be long-lasting peace for all.�

Fundación ‘Un padrino de corazón’: Ni Shakira ni Juanes los apoyan

La comunidad no debe dejarse engañar por personas particulares que se hacen pasar por funcionarios de ‘Un padrino de corazón’. Con chaleco y carné, como aparece en la fotografía, se identifican los colaboradores.
Por Laura Calderón

Ante los distintos rumores de que en Valledupar existía una Fundación apoyada por Juanes y ‘Pies Descalzos’ de Shakira, EL PILÓN escuchó las versiones de la comunidad y llegó hasta las instalaciones de ‘Un padrino de corazón’.


Lo que la mayoría de las personas conocen de la Fundación es que es la misma de Shakira, ‘Pies Descalzos’, a lo que Edwin Calderín, coordinador de la sede Valledupar, dijo que “a nosotros no nos apoya ni Juanes ni Shakira, y que quede claro que no hemos utilizado sus nombres para hacerle propaganda a nuestra fundación. Eso es totalmente falso‿.


Pero la comunidad afectada dice que unos señores con ropas sucias, viejas y de mal aspecto, llegan a sus casas, les dicen que vienen de parte de esos artistas y “nos piden seis mil pesos para inscribirnos en la fundación, con el fin de que los hijos reciban regalos en Navidad y otros beneficios‿, dijo Teresa Martínez Parejo.


Calderín agregó que su Fundación no tiene personas trabajando de esa manera por las calles y que además “nuestros trabajadores se identifican con un chaleco y un carné, y sólo van a las casas de los que ya se inscribieron previamente en nuestra sede por voluntad propia. El grupo de Gestión Social sólo va a la casa después que se verifique que los niños que habitan allí son realmente población vulnerable‿


Cuando EL PILÓN llegó a la Fundación, había varias personas esperando su turno para ser atendidos. “Lo que se hace aquí es recibir las solicitudes de las personas que quieren que terceros, ya sean empresas o personas naturales, apadrinen a su hijo. Llenan el formulario, se les toma la ‘foto’ y luego los de Gestión Social van a sus casas y hacen un estudio de las condiciones en que viven para verificar que merezcan el apadrinamiento‿, expresó Calderín.


Pero había comentarios de las polémicas ‘fotos’. “Son seis mil pesos que tenemos que pagar en la Fundación para que les tomen las fotos a los niños‿, dijo Yaneth Coronado.


Por su parte, el Coordinador de la entidad sin ánimo de lucro, aseveró que “esos seis mil pesos no se piden para inscripción como se ha regado, en verdad son 600 pesos los que cuestan cada ‘foto’, que corresponden a 10 imágenes tomadas en distintos lugares de las casas, para que los futuros padrinos conozcan las condiciones en que viven los menores‿.


Además agregó que no era obligación de que las personas se fotografiaran en la fundación, que ellas podían llevar sus ‘fotos’ y que eso sólo era una vía alterna y más económica para cumplir los requisitos de las imágenes.


EL PILÓN habló con varias personas que estaban haciendo la fila afuera de las instalaciones de ‘Un padrino de corazón’, y fue evidente que estaban desinformadas y no tenían la menor idea de qué estaban haciendo allá.


“A mí me trajo una amiga acá, me dijo que esta fundación era de Juanes y Shakira y que me iban a dar algo. Estoy esperando el turno para ver qué me dan, si sale o no. Pero es realidad no sé de qué se trata‿, explicó María Isabel Lozano, quien además aclaró que estaba allí por su propia voluntad y que hasta ahora no había dado ni un peso, pero que sí se iba a tomar las ‘fotos’ allá, por economía.


Entre tanto, María del Carmen Bohórquez afirmó que “vine con mis tres hijos para tomarles las ‘fotos’ pero no sé más nada de eso‿. La Fundación ‘Un padrino de Corazón’ fue constituida legalmente en Barranquilla, el siete de noviembre de 2006, su NIT es 900.755.367-8.


De todas maneras, la comunidad espera que para este diciembre logren gestionar los apadrinamientos para los niños, ya que provienen de familias de estratos uno y dos que no tienen dinero y que depositaron su confianza en la entidad para que sus hijos pasen la Navidad como los demás, con un juguete y ropa nuevos.

Can anyone tell me, did the other Presidents (i.e. Correa or Chavez) attend the show? kat1 seemed to suggest that Uribe was the only one that was told to stay home. I cannot imagine a bunch of Colombian musicians (juanes y Vives) making this mistake. Is their any truth to this or did I miss interpret kat?

Lcacique, I don't think either of the other presidents ever even attempted to attend the concert.

I like Uribe but I totally understand why the musicians/organizers didn't want ANY politicians to attend. Besides the security nightmare that would have ensued, the whole point of the concert was that, ultimately, the people of Venezuela and Colombia want to TRANSCEND politics.

First...your spanish is very hard to understand. Second, I live in Armenia, Colombia. As in Colombia, a place that I doubt you have ever seen.

Mr. Hollywood,

Thanks for responding. I thought kat must have been misinformed. I agree, it was wise that they did not invite any politicians.
