Traditional chants by monks from the Drepung Gomang Monastery opened the concert. Iggy, Spektor, Gogol Bordello, and Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew would follow, each playing three selections. However, as Billboard notes, it was 5-year-old Tenzin Kunsel, a Tibetan refugee who moved to the United States in 2003, who stole the show. She performed a Tibetan aria, backed by the Patti Smith Band. Speaking of Smith, the legendary singer/songwriter helped close out the evening with performances of both “Gloria” and “People Have the Power”. You can find the complete setlist below.
CoS contributing photographer Jeremy Gordon was there to capture some of the evening’s images:
