50 Cent Attacked On Stage At Gig In Brazil

Pearl Jam @ Roskilde Festival. June 2000 – During the headline set on the Friday, due to sound problems audience members pushed forward to get nearer to the stage. Unfortunately the ground was muddy and many of the crowd fell to the ground causing them to be trampled upon. Nine people died of suffocation while scores more were injured. In 2002, Pearl Jam wrote a song 'Love Boat Captain' which poignantly addressed the tragedy: "Lost 9 friends we'll never know... 2 years ago today."
