This day in music history.

June 30, 2000, Nine people are crushed to death and many are injured at a Pearl Jam concert during the Roskilde festival in Denmark. The incident happens when the people in the back tried to push their way to the front. Officials say those killed slipped on rain-soaked ground and were trampled under foot.
Push Me, Pull Me by Pearl Jam
I had a false belief
I thought I came here to stay
We're all just visiting
All just breaking like waves
The oceans made me, but who came up with love?
Push me, pull me, push me, or pull me out
Push me, pull me, or pull me out
So if there were no angels, would there be no sin?
You better stop me before I begin
But let me say: if I behave, can you arrange a spacious hole in
the ground
Somewhere nice, make it nice
Where the land meets high tide
Push me, pull me, or pull me out
Push me, pull me
Like a cloud dropping rain
I'm discarding all thought
I'll dry up, leaving puddles on the ground
I'm like an opening band for the sun
Push me, pull me
I've had enough,

said enough,
felt enough,
I'm fine
