It was called "Field Day," and was supposed to be held in a large park on Long Island. Town got antsy about a week before the concert and they moved it at the last moment to Giants Stadium. This would have been 2002, I think.
It rained the whole time. A couple songs into his set, Beck slipped and hit his head and needed to be brought to the hospital. Although the bands all sounded good, the day appeared to be a disaster... then, two songs into the headliner Radiohead's set, as Thom Yorke sang "rain down, rain down," the rain stopped and the sky opened up as if on cue. The rest of the set was pure energy and bliss.
