In October 2001, Bowie opened The Concert for New York City, a charity event to benefit the victims of the September 11 attacks, with a minimalist performance of Simon & Garfunkel's " America ", followed by a full band performance of " Heroes ".
Taking in Europe and North America, the tour opened at London's annual Meltdown festival, for which Bowie was that year appointed artistic director.
Reality ( 2003 ) followed, and its accompanying world tour, the A Reality Tour, with an estimated attendance of 722, 000, grossed more than any other in 2004.
Onstage in Oslo, Norway, on 18 June, Bowie was hit in the eye with a lollipop thrown by a fan ; a week later he suffered chest pain while performing at the Hurricane Festival in Scheeßel, Germany.
Originally thought to be a pinched nerve in his shoulder, the pain was later diagnosed as an acutely blocked artery, requiring an emergency angioplasty in Hamburg.
