In May 2001, American alternative rock band Incubus—at the peak of their tour supporting Make Yourself (1999), with over 2 million copies sold and breakthroughs like "Drive" and "Pardon Me"—performed at HFStival, WHFS radio's annual festival in Washington, sharing the bill with Coldplay and Staind before 50,000 at RFK Stadium. Their hour-long set, fan-recorded in high quality, embodied the American tour climax, where Mike Einziger's guitar riffs merged with José Pasillas' drum power and Brandon Boyd's vocal intensity to spark euphoria under spring sun. Featuring tracks like "A Certain Shade of Green", "Stellar", and "Drive", this show highlighted their role as 2000s alternative leaders, turning the stadium into a realm of collective unity.
