You are on your feet at a Rage show the whole time - unless you're off them in the air ( They say jump, you say how high?!). Every word of every song was being shouted along with the band, and there was not an ass in a seat in the whole place. For "Bullet In The Head", Tom Morello ripped out his famous solo, adding a riff with his teeth that had the bros in the pit losing their ever-loving shit. "People Of The Sun" and "Bulls on Parade" were the one-two punch that came next, and a huge screen behind the band showed both them in close up, and real serious video content about the state of the world right now. It was also very moving, as my friend Tom's wife and young sons were there on the side of the stage, and it was the boys' first time seeing their dad rock the fuck out with Rage! How cool is that?! Super special, and I'm just so glad I was there. I was also so, SO happy for my friends rocking out on stage, with their wide smiles, it was clear that they too were extra happy to be back. I got all choked up, thinking about how long it's been since I'd been at a show like this, ROCKING my face off with a huge crowd, and all that has happened since.
with Zack's voice repeating a phrase that was impossible to understand with the incredibly loud yelling for Rage - and then lights came on, and there was everyone's favorite band, BACK with a "BOMBTRACK"!!! The energy in that space was off the charts, and the pit immediately erupted in a sea of bodies flying, heads banging, and fists pumping in the air. but there's nothing like the real thing, and when the lights went down and a P.S.A. and B Real filling in for Zack de la Rocha. Now, there have been performances of Rage songs in the last decade, with Chuck D. They had the crowd in their big hands the entire set, even though I lost a shred of respect for Killer Mike when he admitted to being a Packers fan while shouting out Wisconsin. Everyone sang along until Killer Mike said, "Nah, I hate that song", and they launched into their song, "Run The Jewels" from their first album. Opening act, the excellent Run The Jewels had their big inflatable fists hanging above the stage, and all of a sudden we heard Lionel Richie singing the opening line of "We Are The World", as Killer Mike and El-P took the stage. You could feel that it was going to be ROWDY. It was about to go OFF.Īs weed smoke swirled above the crowd, more and more alcoholic beverages were being consumed while the excitement built. I saw guys stretching, warming up for what was going to be maybe the most long awaited mosh pit ever - as this show was originally scheduled for over two years ago. After grabbing some overpriced, mediocre concert food, we made our way down to our seats near the stage. But whatever, the show more than made up for any drags we encountered (we'll get to that more later). so you'll have to settle for the old Iphone shots, sorry. That was a huge drag, especially as my brother, Paul, had just flown in to road trip to this show with me, and was going to shoot the bands, but we were never able to connect. The bad news about this is that there is absolutely ZERO cell service, making meeting up with friends and colleagues impossible.
