Then the presentation -- intense and epic live shows. They also employed a humble populist/hardcore approach to everything, all while being masters of many styles. (Primarily jagged post-punk and long, spacey soundscapes.) The time and place Juno occupied at the height of their powers was also conducive to loving them I think. Particularly in Seattle in the mid-late 90's, Juno made their music better than many others who were making theirs. AND they are cool, maaaan.

He played some of the bass parts on their second full-length. Nate Mendel did as well. For these shows, though, someone mentioned that Jason Lajuenesse will be playing bass. I haven't confirmed that with him, though. He played bass with Juno when they toured Japan in 2004, and he also played a number of Seattle shows.

This is going to be a great show!
