.... Bose: "there will be no concert! there will be no concert! because we cannot comply with our good intentions and all it entails. All this, all this, all this- we have gone through it all! We have complied with everything! We came with good intentions, without political discourse, get whoever is in charge to take care of this NOW! They either stop the blockades or there will be no concert! Juanes- "What the fu at #! This? NO NO NO, brother- NO! No because I said so!"
Bosé - "It's over! It's over!"
Juanes- "Tell me, what now? Should we leave Cuba now? We are pissed off! We are PISSED OFF! You hear me? We are pissed off!"
Olga Tañon (to Juanes, trying to calm him down): If they take an aggressive position, we can't do the same. So we are unhappy- peace and love!"
Juanes- "But we can't permit that not all the people who came to see the show cannot enter the concert"
Olga- "We can't act like them!"
Juanes- "If they don't wear a certain shirt, they won't let them see the show"
Singer from Orishas- "Juanes, Juanes, Juanes, if we stop it now, we are letting them win!" (a Colombian reporter tries to console Juanes)
Olga- "listen, listen to me, papa! We are all united. Or they open it to everyone, or the hell with it! We are the soldiers- the soldiers of peace!"
Next you see Juanes sobbing on Bose's shoulders while Bose hugs and consoles him.
Bosé - "I chit on it all! We will not stop, we will not stop, we will not stop"
Juanes keeps sobbing on Bose's shoulder-
Bosé : "how the hell- they cannot understand us with all this pressure! Yes, that's true- this is the the biggest headache that we could ever expect! When we leave, what will remain of all this, what this man has done, understand? It is going to be huge! It is going to be huge! It's going to be good!
Why do they punish us like this? Why do they humiliate us like this? Why are they hitting us with this? Why are they accusing us of things that we ourselves do not understand and cannot explain?"....

Juanes Tried to Cry His Way Out of Cuba Concert
.... Juanes accused pretty much everyone around him during the hours leading up to the concert of being a government spy, including the waiter serving him breakfast.
In an exchange recorded by journalists at the Hotel Nacional in Havana on Sunday morning, Juanes pointed to an individual apparently from Cuban state security. You can see it on YouTube here.
"I just realized a little while ago that since yesterday, the guy who's bringing me breakfast, the guy who is accompanying me, then I see him in the concert, and now I see him sending messages," Juanes shouted.
Juanes was also upset about the Cuban police stopping people from coming into the concert venue because they didn’t have on the white t-shirt encouraged by promoters to symbolize peace. Lighten up, Juanes! Bouncers on South Beach turn people away all the time and its usually because they are wearing white t-shirts.
"We are very upset, very upset," he Juanes yelled. "We are here for the youth of Cuba ... for the future of Cuba."
Clearly the stress of being a new dad and promoting a controversial concert in Fidel’s backyard was getting to poor Juanes, who reportedly was seen crying in his oatmeal. During different points, he refused to go on stage or go back to his hotel room.
Eventually, Juanes and his buddies did the concert in front of an estimated 1 million fans who had no clue the thing almost didn’t happen.

Juanes, Olga, & Miguel Cry Before Concert in Cuba
It’s been almost a week since El Concierto Paz Sin Fronteras and the controversial concert is still providing plenty to talk about.
Juanes, Miguel Bose, and Olga Tañon were caught on video having a heated discussion with the organizers of the event in Cuba.
We mentioned that one of the snafus that occurred before the concert was that the Cuban officials wanted to select who got to sit front row…something that the performers did NOT want.
The conversation got emotional and tears were flowing.
CLICK HERE to watch the video and see them deal with the pressures of the Cuban government.
