Two thirds of Destiny’s Child plus one sister, were back together again as Beyonce and Mama Tina showed up to the J&R Music Festival to show their support for Michelle Williams and Solange Knowles, who were both making their solo debuts at the event. Held in City Hall Park, the festival attracted a large crowd of about 5,000 people, who also showed up to see Terrence Howard and festival veteran, Lyfe Jennings, perform as well. Beyonce kept a low profile as her sister and fellow bandmate rocked the New York City crowd and most of the financial district. Anyone who has been to this festival knows the coolest place to watch is actually from the office buildings windows, which are usually crowded with people sneaking away from their cubicles to get a glance at the musicians performing.
