The Beastie Boys headlined at Lollapalooza —an American travelling

The Beastie Boys headlined at Lollapalooza —an American travelling music festival—in 1994, together with the Smashing Pumpkins . In addition, the band performed three concerts (in Los Angeles, New York City, and Washington, D.C.) to raise money for the Milarepa Fund and dedicated the royalties from ” Shambala ” and “Bodhisattva Vow” from Ill Communication to the cause. The Milarepa Fund aims to raise awareness of Tibetan human rights issues and the exile of the Dalai Lama . In 1996, Yauch organized the largest rock benefit show since 1985’s Live Aid – the Tibetan Freedom Concert , a two-day festival at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco that attracted over 100,000 attendees.
