Live - Tibetan Freedom Concert (June 13, 1999), various tracks Options

[dangum]

I was trawling through YouTube this afternoon looking for any 1998 TFC footage - didn't find any of Live but did find an awesome Radiohead show from the day.

Anyway, for years now I've had I Alone from the 1999 show, but found a couple more tracks. Lightning Crashes and Pain Lies on the Riverside!

Hope you enjoy these.

Is there really a bad Radiohead concert? I know you talked more about sound quality, but still, I really came back to that band since last summer. Just an amazing band!

By the time they started performing songs from In Rainbows I felt like the energy at their shows diminished. Fans love the Bonnaroo 2006 show when they premiered several In Rainbows songs. I was there and it was meh. Saw them at the Tweeter Center in MA in 2003, and it was insanely amazing.

I think that some songs from this record were difficult to reproduce well live with good energy. I think of All I need for example. On the record it's really haunting, dark and all. In concert it's not the same vibe. So your point is valid for that era. But In rainbows is still a masterpiece for me, at leat on record.

Footage from the show and brief Ed interview. Crappy quality but includes The Dolphins' Cry.

Nice find Andy. Would have been tough to discover with the generic YouTube title. If only there was footage from the 1998 edition.

In trying to find better video for Dolphin’s cry (no luck) i found the entire lineup broadcast video so if anyone wants to see the other bands, here they are:
Tracy Chapman
Blondie
The cult
Rage Against the Machine
Beastie Boys
Run DMC
Cibo Matto
The Roots

Even in this broadcast, Dolphins Cry was cut out

Does anybody want to make a large donation to the Milarepa Fund to encourage them to release this pro-shot footage?

In 2010 I began digging for usage rights for Live's performance at the 1998 Tibetan Freedom concert in Washington DC.

I reached out to freetibet.org.

Originally was told that the Milarepa Fund fronted by Adam Yauch of the Beastie boys would be the best place to get footage.

I was told to contact Andrew Bryson.

I was also told to try reaching out to Palm Pictures who made a movie called Free Tibet, a documentary about the concert.


Unfortunately the leads were not useful because I learned Adam Bryson left Milarepa in 2001. Palm pictures only took footage from San Francisco.

Also, when Adam died, so did Milarepa.

However, I then learned that Milarepa worked more closely with Students for a Free Tibet than with Freetibet.org.

I never followed up with SFT.

If anyone would like to follow up their contact is:
