No one yelled for Freebird. Per New York Times: ★ RHYS CHATHAM: A CRIMSON GRAIL FOR 200 ELECTRIC GUITARS (Saturday) This isnt the first time the minimalist composer Rhys Chatham has tried to corral 200 electric guitars and a troop of electric basses into performing his original piece A Crimson Grail: last year the concert was thwarted by rain.

(Its a tough act to precede, but the New York band Liquid Liquid will â€" bravely â€" open.) At 7:30 pm, Damrosch Park, Columbus Avenue at 62nd Street, Lincoln Center, (212) 875-5766, lincolncenter.org; free.
