Setlist

  • 1. People Of The Sun
    Early version
  • 2. Bombtrack
  • Yeah. This song is called Take The Power Back
  • 3. Take The Power Back
  • For hundreds of years, America has sent people in the fucking middle east in the name of freedom, in the name of democracy, and have murdered innocent woman and children to rape and conquer and divide them of their resources. Today, the situation still stands and people are being murdered in the name of Freedom. Wake up your power as an individual and speak out and act against imperialist actions like this. This song is called a Bullet in your Head. So check it out.
  • 4. Bullet In The Head
  • 5. Know Your Enemy
    In-Song Dialogue: Eh yo light man. Put out this fucking sprinkler lights. This ain't fucking Alice in Wonderland.
  • Alright. This one is going out to my bro Rob and it's called Wake Up.
  • 6. Wake Up
    In-Song Dialogue: We've got to regain knowledge again and we've got to regain an understanding again of who we are. Not just [as] those chosen to fuel systems, but [as] individuals who have the power to criticize and analyze and attack injustice when it becomes prevalent and apparent in front of our faces like it is everyday in ours right now. We need to begin to awaken and use our ability and our strengths to combat systems which continue to perpetuate ignorance amongst our spirit and amongst our minds. We've been all put to sleep. Put to sleep to a system who wants you not to act. To a system that would rather see all of you at that bar drinking beer filling your minds--being put to sleep with beer or with drugs rather than acting against it and fighting a system which has been perpetrating imperialist lies and fucking bullshit for 500 years. So fucking drink up or fucking wake up. You're part of the solution or you're part of the fucking problem. We can talk about this all fucking day, but I know I am sick and tired of my own complacence in my life and I know I'm fucking sick of yours. So fucking stand up and stop fucking sleeping. Wake up.
  • 7. Settle For Nothing
  • This next song is going out to one of our roadies and good friends Andy because it's his birthday. It's his fucking birthday man, fucking great guy. (crowd chants "Andy") And it's called a Fistful of Steel. So let's get this shit going.
  • 8. Fistful Of Steel
  • What?
  • 9. Killing In The Name
  • Peace, later on
  • Encore Break
  • 10. Freedom
    with intro jam by Tom

Show Notes

  • Bootlegs of this show have been floating around for years, the most famous of which is "The Killing Zone".
  • Zack gave an unbelievably impassioned speech during Wake Up.
  • This is one of my all time favorite Rage concerts - definitely a must listen!
  • I have heard that parts of this performance were shown on a local TV station, but have no way of verifying that.

Notes

Possibly my all time favorite recording. There's been some speculation that this is FM sourced, by spectral analysis indicates that it's not. The last two tracks on this recording are taken from another concert, but it is unclear which one.

Another Silver CD of this performance printed in 1994. Likely taken from a P3 radio broadcast which is why People of the Sun is missing.
