Nothing so far has topped that Was a great performance and fantastic to finally get to see them in the flesh. Friends saw them at their '94 Glastonbury performance and I have never, ever got over the envy. This project is in line with other stuff they'd done in the past. I'd probably be up for seeing them. I've given up on ever hearing new Rage tracks now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could delivery half the energy of their Reading 08 performance that would be something! I'm so upset there isn't any pro shot footage of that reading gig.

First gig on June 3rd apparently. Unless the have an album ready to go? Looks to me like its a couple of weeks rehearsal and then a smash and grab summer tour. Morello playing Fight the Power, Bring the Noise, Insane in the Brain etc. At least that clown Flavor Flav isn't involved. I thought it looked pretty interesting at first but if it's just them doing the three bands' songs then that's much less so. Still more forward thinking than a third Rage reunion though ffs.

HoTWire Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I hope Zack isn't involved in this because he is busy doing more One Day As A Lion stuff ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbailey80 Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) It is really really fun playing songs you wrote and love with your mates. Cash grab? I wouldn't be so negative. They have a right to make money from something they are really fucking good at and I'm sure having a great time too and travelling the world. Making money whilst making people happy and spreading knowledge about all sorts of world issues is nothing to be ashamed of. If we get an EP/ charity single out of it then even better.

Yokel Again Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Watchiing the C4 coverage of them in 1994 was what made me want to go to Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
