RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE

Setlist

Yeah. This song is dedicated to the student rebellion at UCLA. Because there is a war going on at that campus. A war for the correct representation of Chicano culture. A war for the correct representation of African history. A war for the correct representation of ancient culture and history. Yes. That's why we gotta take the power back. This goes out to the [??] organization, to conscious students of color, to the hunger strikers. Don't ever bow down. Bring that shit in! Yeah, c'mon! Check this out LA

Check this out? How many of you know your history? Yeah. Well those of us who know our history, who are willing to do anything to reach the level of our ancestory, the [??] people, yes. Who will do anything. Those who know it will do anything by any means necessary to get our freedom in this country. Right now, right now, yes. Because we want, the days of our ancestors, we want [??] positions, we weren't subordinate slaves, we weren't brainwashed, we were People of the Sky. We were people of the Earth.

Those that probably heard that song on the radio realize that they cut that motherfucker in half towards the end. It's upsetting as an artist trying to fucking keep a hold, a hold on our pure sense, keep a hold of our purity in music. When radio stations across the country are cutting and editing our fucking music without our permission, we never gave them, we never gave KROQ or any of those fucking stations permission to cut our records up. And to cut our music out and to cut our message out of our message. Fuck that. And I gotta say this too, fuck KROQ for doing it, I don't give a fuck. Now that's out of the way, I want to ask everyone a question real quick, because uh this whole concert is supposed to be about questioning right? So check this out. Why on earth would an organization as established as Lollapalooza make you guys pay the difference to bowing down to promoters or land proprieters and charging 23 dollars for a shirt that cost 7 dollars to make. What the fuck is up with that. If this whole event is about questioning, this whole event to promote critical thinking, I think they're doing more to promote blind consumerism than anything else. And I think it's wrong. So in protest we decided we weren't going to sell shirts on this whole tour. We've been telling all the people about it because I think it's fucked up and you all should know. This next song is called a Bullet in your Head. Check out how it's going down.
