They told Janie Hendrix that they would play "Fire" as a tribute to Jimi, who, iirc, may have been an iconic performer at the original Woodstock, or something. I remember grampa telling me about Jimi playing the national anthem in a very orthodox and respectful way.

They had obviously planned it, because for the encore break they ALL went and dressed up as Jimi, replete with white fringe leather jackets and headbands, so it wasn't like they decided to play "Fire" at the last second to thumb their noses at anyone.

Sometimes, things have simple explanation if anyone cares to look.

Will quote Eminem here though when I post "mother**** a limp bizkit."

Yes, that’s what the promoter/film says. Nothing in there about a tribute to Hendrix.
