here is an article from Iwon.com about it:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Nearly 50 people were sent to area hospitals, and more than 200 others were treated for heat exhaustion Saturday at a concert festival at RFK Stadium.

The daylong HFStival, sponsored by local alternative rock radio station WHFS-FM, featured acts performing on several stages. Among the headline performers were The Cure, The Offspring, Papa Roach, Jay-Z and The Violent Femmes.

Thousands of concertgoers crowded on to the stadium field in sweltering heat, and danced violently in several mosh pits. The most serious injuries came out of those pits, city Fire and Emergency Medical Services spokesman Alan Etter said.

One 18-year-old man was treated for chest pains and several other people suffered broken or dislocated bones.

Did you see The Cure? I'm a big fan but i've never seen them live. I'm hoping they will tour their forthcoming new album and play Glasgow.

we left after Offspring... myself and the group of people i was with dont like the cure.

As for them touring... i DO believe they are going on tour to promote their new cd that is being released (in the states at least) later this summer... as for a scotland tour, i couldnt tell you, sorry

Dude, that's just wrong. I would LOVE to see the Cure! The Offspring do put on a good show though, even though I'm not a big fan.

I used to live in DC...I miss WHFS....sniff...
