RATM vs. RNC
Forget about Obama vs. McCain, the most interesting battle later this summer is likely to be a just announced Rage Against the Machine appearance in Minneapolis while the Republican National Convention is going on in St. Paul.
The September 3 show, which is sure to include more than a little of the band’s fiery brand of political activism, will take place at Target Center, according to Minneapolis’ Star Tribune.
Tickets, priced at $60, go on sale August 9.
The last time Rage performed at a political event of this magnitude, during the 2000 Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, the free outdoor show devolved into a riot when police attempted to disperse the crowd.
