Jun 13 - 14, 1998 (26 years ago) RFK Stadium Washington, D.C., United States
Herbie Hancock And The Headhunters Blues Traveler Dave Matthews Band
Many bands, including Kraftwerk and Beck, were cancelled after lightning strikes at the beginning of Herbie Hancock and the Headhunters' set on the first day of music. Bizarrely, Live played “Lightning Crashes” earlier in the day.)
Organizers had to scramble in order to squeeze as many acts as possible onto day two of the show, though Beck, Patti Smith, Tracy Chapman and a few others couldn’t make it. Still, the sun was shining as R.E.M. played their first show without drummer Bill Berry, the Red Hot Chili Peppers performed their first major gig with guitarist John Frusciante in six years and Radiohead sucked it up and played a rare “Creep.”
Speakers: Xiao Qiang – Human Rights in China, Lhadon Tethong – Students for a Free Tibet, Palden Gyatso – Former Political Prisoner, Wei Jingsheng – Chinese Democracy Activist and Former Political Prisoner
