Still all rumours i know but imagine it.
Surely they'd play Reading or some UK festival if thats the case.

World Tour! World Tour!

acquiescefc

Would love to see them one more time.

hopefully this does a few things:

1. re-unites RATM on a long-term basis
2. kills audioslave
3. brings forth the return of soundgarden

Alucard II

so far its only for one show, but if the guys are getting along again, then maybe/HOPEFULLY we'll see more gigs in the future. i read this last night, about an hour after it was confirmed, and spent the rest of the night fretting over missing the biggest musical event in the new millenium, bar Floyd playing at Live 8.
ironically enough, the only thing which cheered me up was listening to Rage at high volume.

Jizz!
|Oh my mother****ing god.
TRABOPALINE EVEN!
Man they cant reform for just one show. Its Rage.
They'll have to play at least a worldwide stadium tour.....

Mushy

Hahahha, brilliant! We want Rage and we want them here. They cant just do one show, bands always say that and it always multiplies.* Wow, great news altogether.


*may be factually incorrect

honru

Jesus and Mary Chain ****.

o1s1n

Jesus that is some lineup. I'd even go to that just to see VNV Nation and Infected Mushroom.

Time to start saving. :eek:

acquiescefc

The Frames!!! In the same sentence as Rage.....

The worlds gone mad.

Lemming

ZOMG :eek:

*breathes deep into brown paper bag*

Normally I'd be suspicious of a band reforming but Rage should have never split. I hope they return with a new album with all the fire and excitement that Audioslave never had. Plus I hope they ditch Sony and do everything independently. They can do it. I believe in them.

Probably San Diego.

Rockee

WOOHOOO!!!!!!

I note too that Crowded House are playing. Didnt even know they were back playing either. Madness go léir.

plonk

Flights are only 572 return from dublin to la, which seems to be as close as san diego.Add another 200 for ticket and 500 spending money--- 1400 to see ratm and a trip to la. Not bad:D

MrJoeSoap

Tickets will surely be like gold-dust though...

plonk

Theres always ebay

Then I think you might have to revise your €1400 figure!

plonk

Indeed One of my mates is a huge fan and id say hed go if he could get a ticket. Id love to but dont have 2000euro and I have exams around that time. If i didnt have exams id seriously consider going

seanironmaiden

well, I'm there for sure. wow, imagine Zack releasing 7 yearsof anger onstage at this gig. It will be unreal....

oh, and seein' as I have all the Rage-heads together... here's a video of Wake Up, by my band Bulls On Parade (RATM Tribute)... there's footage from gigs in Doran's and The Music Centre that some of ya's may have been at..

just finished it today... before I heard the good news, strangely enough..
wow, today is a good day. there's no way they could walk offstage after this show and not want to play more...

Zack refuses to comment on the re-union.. my guess is we'll hear nothing from them until they walk onstage.... "Good Evening we're Rage Against The Machine from Los Angeles California..." *and into Testify........*

wow, *shivers*

Shiminay

Oh.

My.

Fúcking.

Gods!

I can't even begin to describe my excitement as to the possibility of this happening. I'm actually gonna so some serious sums to see if there's any remote possible way I could go to this gig.
