Well for me it was great!Sure I didn't expected to listen the classic Juno since I saw their latest dvd release and listening their latest album which I realy liked..Zen Lemonde were great too,a little bit chill for that specific time but sure great music.Actually the only thing that caused your "juno reactor/wtf/no trance/why" problem was the soundsystem which wasn't the best for this event.Not enough loud for such o big crowd.Organizers should take care of it since they expected so many people.I have to agree that the best thing was the people and the whole vibe,and of course Juno were simply amazing for me!

good..
juno reactor was super.. i feel sorry for the ones that expected something psychedelic but they have involved and i cant say that is commercial its a great fusion of music styles electronic/tribal/alternative.. i found it refreshing and fantastic.
zen lemonade nice music although to much on the chill side.. not the best way to introduce juno.
bad..
not good sound system... was to small for the place.
no ventilation and WHO THE FUCK WAS THE IDEA TO GIVE FREE CIGARETTES TO THE PEOPLE...??? we must be the last country in europe that supports smoking inside clubs... and even sponsor it.
about the rest of the performers i have no opinion cos i wasnt there to listen to them.
who expected juno would play like the "good old days"? xaxaxa

the sound was awful... REALLY disappointed of the sound coverage for such an event...
too hot inside, why not doing it outside?
for the cigarettes i don't care, but also the 'VIBE' was not there...
i enjoyed Juno Reactor, not all parts but it was interesting, [just again really disappointed not by them but by the sound engineers... shame !]
and a lot Direct Connection ( Bravo guys u are becoming the GREEK High Tone band as in France to my taste )
Now sorry but for Zen Lemonade, next time bring me a couch and a bottle of Vodka and i will listen... + the microphone of Cozi on the mini KORG... :S awful distortion...
this kind of music is for opening the event, not right in the middle!!!
Music? Juno reactor has past to other ...dimensions lets say, but in any case the music we heard tonight was not what all of us were waiting. and i am not talking only for me, i am talking for the majority of the people we talked and from what we could see from the suprising and bored people that were surrounding us.
juno played exactly the tracks that were expected...if you and others are not well informed it's your probrem...i mean there were people wondering "WTF are we hearing?"...wtf for me then...you are hearing juno...they sound like this for years...what did you expect oldschool goa?
Now the soundsystem wasn't good...and i couldn't hear many sounds from the computer...but it was a nice experience to see them live...Zen lemonade was a very bad choise before juno...
The band with the didgeridoo was kool.(Direct Connection?)
Juno perfomance was good to, a lot of energy from the africans.
However.
Mediocre sound.
TOO FUCKING HOT.
TOO OVERCROWDED.How can someone enjoy it if he not only cannot dance, but even move 10 cm.)
TOO EXPENSIVE (35/40 euros and not even drink included? And 4 euros for some crap 'vergina beer' ? ARE U CRAZY?!) Detox u say "low prices in the bar" ??
All in all, a very beatiful arpaxth
P.S. I did not expect to listen pure psychedelic trance, i expected to listen tracks from labyrinth (that were played) but with a better sound and some space to dance and enjoy like human, not like sheep.

Raziel noone expected Juno to play Trance and Goa but noone also expected them to play rock/industrial music along with some dub stuff that i found them uninteresting.And not only that but even the guitar tracks in the beggining were horrible since you could only listen to the guitar and nothing else in the backround due to the soundsystem.I know very well that since Labyrinth the style changed but Labyrinth was a great album and i am afraid that its the new album Gods And Monsters that is more industrial and the people cannot be aware of that since the album just got released if i am not mistaken.
Anyway me i was dissapointed by the music but i will still buy the new album to check it out although i dare to say i dont expect much in it after last nights perfomance.
P.S Nick 4 euros for a beer in a concert is an ok price same for 1 euro for water.
Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

noone?i doubt...this year's performance was exactly the same as last year's...they only played two tracks from their new album which is indeed different...but ghetto priest was there last year too...so i guess you were not informed...they even have a DVD released with the same performance as the one yesterday (ghetto priest,drummer,guitarist,taz,amampondo)...you could also search youtube to see how a juno reactor live is recenlty...
for a bottle, sure, for some cheap crap beer and just 300ml of it... I don't think so ! And shouldn't they at least have the decency to have 1 drink free incl. with the ticket? ;P
I am happy that i was there...
I dont hear Juno since the old times of mid 90's but ok.....The juno psychedelia was still there...
Dont forget that yesterday 2 of the most respected names of psychedelic trance was there..i am talking about Gus Till -Zen lemonade- and Ben Watkins -Juno Reactor-

The sound was Ok
Direct Connection,mpravo Guys.Nice Performance
Zen Lemonade was too downtempo for that slot
Juno reactor show was the best electronic music live I've seen along with the Prodigy one
My best regards to this initiative and I hope for more events like this to come
btw. at some time the idrima looked like n6 5 years after Helicon Sounds Music

this event, was a concert, not a party! Have you seen many concerts with drink included??? i don't think so...
as for the 35-40 euros price, i think is logical for a concert, with 4 bands, as normal prices for band's concerts (rock bands etc,) they start from 60 euros less for 2 hours gig mostly.
As for the space to dance, i say again, WAS CONCERT, NOT A PSY PARTY...
For the rests, about the sound, the band's gigs etc, i can't have an opinion, as i coundn't made it to come unfortunately
