Mixfest ’99

True to its name, the Boston radio station Mix 98.5FM (aka WBMX) brings together a diverse mix of performers for this two-day music festival. The first part takes place on Oct 9, downtown at Boston’s City Hall Plaza, where 1980s veterans Duran Duran share a stage with 1990s hitmakers the Ben Folds Five, as well as the quirky roots band NRBQ, singer-songwriter Jeremy Toback and modern-rock band Train. The next day, at Foxboro Stadium, the festival continues with performances by Blondie, Luscious Jackson, the Pretenders, Natalie Merchant, Sugar Ray and Melissa Etheridge.
