[C2ARNY85]

I love the vibe of this!

[LIBERALTSUNAMI]

fuck the republicans

[DaSoggychip]

@jaksnopp , acapella is a genre of musi where you only use your voice to form the sounds

[MrBrawl]

You don't even have to agree with them to realize that this is some real shit right here. They've got an agenda and they're following it wholeheartedly; more power to people like RATM that want to express what they believe in, a right held by every US citizen in this country.

[scottportergood]

Chills

[Soberguysknowsbest]

Go back to your communist country bastards.

[StonyArc]

@Soberguysknowsbest but America isn't a communist country...

[daveme7]

I thought all the commies died while diverted to Elmendorf AFB in Alaska because our plane was broke. The next day we got on it again and had to stop in Tokyo-because of a typhoon. We finallyh got to a hotel room and a few drunk commies were trying to dispose Gorbachev and some guy decided we all needed to strip naked and run through the quads-the inspiration of Will Farrel in Old School. I am no commie or socialist but love the music despite the politics. Free Ted Bundy and Charles Manson!

[vwgti4]

[Queezerboom]

[joystan]

@Queezerboom How?

[chrizcrozz]

I can hear their music at the background.

[TherealE2J]

Everyone leave that goverment agent troll named lgw1984 alone & enjoy the music :D

[devsteel13]

@lgw1984 the reason they have those symbols is to represent resistance and that people have to work together to create change. Not to be taken so literal, they are musicians.

[chailizard]

Surely this megaphone explodes.

[cb7pwn]

i love their music, but these guys are nut jobs... im canadian and honestly, i look at politics like they are a joke, republican, democratic. liberal, federal..who gives A SHIT, its all the same shit, all politicians will ever be is corrupt... everyone needs to learn how to get along, i think its funny how americans fight americans and canadians fight canadians over politics.. our enemies are OUT THERE! not here

[westhighwrestling]

@cb7pwn fuck your god.

[nathanOyok]

[Hindu435]

His true motives are now known and he is not welcome.

[Soberguysknowsbest]

This illegal is a fucking raciss man.

[daughteroflight13]

He looks like BobDylan and Bob Marley's love child.

"He use the F-word a lot"-Forrest Gump

[randrells]

[randrells]

This is what we called artist for the people and not for the bucks no band can do this because they are all mainstream sh*t

[society21]

[NathanSimmFTW]

This is fucking inspirational shit.

[ermonski]

this proves that sometimes, you don't need instruments to do a gig...

all you need is a megaphone... and a lot of passion!

[mattfreaknparker]

[blaint09]

RAGE AGAINST THE ANTONIO MACHINE!

Why people's still saying bullshit against this band?!

[AnD0jUsTiCe0FoR0aLL]

lol i didnt hear anyone say 'bulls on parade'

[DeliciousMike]

Here's a little idea for all protestors.... a little pipe dream i just came up with if you will

You know those mega sonic crowd speakers they use to disperse riots, crowds etc?

Well what if someone were to hook up 30,000 watts to a van with a generator and play RATM vocals at high volume on the protesting side?

Just a thought ;)

[BrainSpecialist]

"Yeah'!

/shakes head

"No!"

[VintageVCX]

what a f'n retard.

[54321kola]

@VintageVCX

retards are you and your mother

[VintageVCX]

what a f'n retard.

[bushisatweeker]

as you may be able to tell by my username. i am not the biggest fan of bush but Mr.Bush may have alot of faults but he and John McCain are not responsible for the current wars that we are fighting, that is the result of 17 Islamic terrorists hi-jacking planes and killing 3000 people and it was funded by a group of thugs that have been waging war since the 1980's first the Soviets and now us.so please don't misinform yourself and the world by stating something that is not true.

[DislocatedDesign]

Rage have more spirit in their middle fingers than the entire cadre of pop goons on the TV-for-smurfs channels. Are they planning a new album ever? The people need their voices. Peace

[willyp22]

Wars started by Bush? What about the crazy muslims that stole our own planes , then purposely flew them into our buildings.911 happend less than 11 years ago.Seems in America that lives of our own people isn't important enough,to go take the fight to our enemies.And if we all want to live in a safer world,terroists that yes started it first. They need to be stopped.I don't think a peaceful sit-down would warrant the kind of justice that is deserved by the families whose loved ones died.

[IHateThisSpace]

@willyp22 So because a very minor part of a contry's population attacks the US, it gives you the right to invade a foreign country and, directly and/or indirectly, kill thousands of people who had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks? Does that also mean that, for example, Nicaragua and Chile would be justified in declaring war on the USA? Or that Norway should declare war on Israel? Or that Sweden should declare war on Germany? You can't make a nation responsible for the actions of extremists.

[bushisatweeker]

@IHateThisSpace no,but if the attack came from people who live in a country whose government is ran by the same organization that attacked your country it does justify it.Al Qaeda are a group of murders and rapists who also kill large amounts of people thousands of miles away from their country.They are a minority of people who control local farmers with brute force and terrible human rights abuses and if no one will stop them locally than the nations who receive their terrorist attacks will.

[TROVADOR2009]

They Afraid Of You!!!! Hell Yeah, I Think I heard A Shot...

[BillyTalentRocks2010]

Justin Sane at 7:02 ....can't believe I missed this

[666ragnarok666]

This is awesome this is the kind of social consciene people need inorder to make the world a better place, i dont care if you are capitalist, socialist or whatever cause i think we all agree we want to live in a better place

[hatenatchi7]

誰か簡単に訳してくれ

[Dihnekis]

true musicians, able to perform without their fucking instruments and keep a crowd.

[mto234]

fuck the guy in the scout uniform he is a disgrace

[theinvisible09]

@therealsteamingpile

You couldn't be more wrong. RATM has been very critical of the democrats as well. Just take a look at the footage from the 2000 Democratic National Convention. Further, you obviously have no understanding of what socialism is. Lenin, Stalin, and Trotsky perverted socialism. Think for yourself. Socialism is intended to be based on a mode of existence that places the highest value on the individual, not on material wealth.

[therealsteamingpile]

Good band, idiotic message.

Democrats are just as culpable as the republicans in the war but yes lets blame one side completely, that makes sense.

Communism/socialism looks fine in theory or on paper, in reality you need a massive force to control the people so that style of government works in reverse.

[TWiiGLegS]

@therealsteamingpile True thatt

[PiFuenftel]

@therealsteamingpile theinvisible is right aswell. RATM was formed during the presidency of bill clinton. as far as i know he's a democrat.

[therealsteamingpile]

@PiFuenftel They formed during bush the first

[PiFuenftel]

@therealsteamingpile oh damn, you're right. still lots of the RATM songs were meant to critizise clinton&co

[13heavymetal]

@therealsteamingpile Rage aren't democrats. And if you actually researched any of this, you will find they have protested the DNC as well.

[therealsteamingpile]

@13heavymetal Protest is a strong word for their DNC visit

[13heavymetal]

@therealsteamingpile Had this concert gone off without a hitch, it would have been the exact same deal. Both protests were supposed to be anti-convention themed concerts, but they were refused entry on the stage at the RNC, resulting in this.

[PainfulJoy]

@therealsteamingpile Their music doesn't only call out the Republicans, they protest all failures by the governemt, and I don't recall any songs by them claiming that war is okay if socialist of communist governments cause it. You are uninformed sir. As I said, RATM protests the wars and unjust actions caused by people in positions of power, as should we all.

[therealsteamingpile]

@PainfulJoy I know you may believe that but they are against corporate anything but the problem is someone has to own it, that is why they are identified with the dems, redistribution of wealth is something they preach.

[akonapo1]

there is anti flag beside them

[ezelgue]

zack for president please [2]

[therealsteamingpile]

@ezelgue Good god, no. Sorry I like earning my living and being able to keep what I earn.

[monalisasmilesforyou]

RATM is what music is all about. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!! FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION!!

[tucdu17]

@monalisasmilesforyou In the 90's maybe.

[Lgw1984]

@monalisasmilesforyou

They act as "cool communists" but then Morello has a $4000 Les Paul Custom. Why not using a $100 guitar?

An what about the bassist tattoos? He could have donated that money, but NO, it's better to spend it in that shit.

That's what I call a hypocrite, a guy ranting about rich people and the next day he spends thousands of dollars on useless crap.

[monalisasmilesforyou]

@Lgw1984 "Useless crap" ??? Guitars aren't useless crap, especially nice ones like Les Paul ($100 guitars don't sound as awesome as nicer guitars). Tattoos aren't "shit." Look, a few hundreds or thousands of dollars on personal items (which the band bought after becoming successful thanks to their hard work and dedication) does not AT ALL compare to the BILLIONS being spent by the U.S. on war, wars that a majority of Americans don't support but are forced to pay anyway because of taxes.

[monalisasmilesforyou]

@Lgw1984 You simply cannot compare RATM's success and their being able to afford nice guitars to the corruption and greed of the U.S. government. The reason the U.S. is in the Middle East is driven by pure greed, greed for oil and power and domination. The U.S. is an empire. You can't compare the American government to RATM. RATM aren't hypocrites. The U.S. government are the biggest hypocrites in the world. They tout democracy and freedom, but innocent kids are being killed in Afghanistan.

[Lgw1984]

@monalisasmilesforyou

I find very hypocritical making songs about "poor people" and "how communist I am" and spending thousands of dollars on tattoos and guitars. But they're the typical communists, they expect someone else to do what they say it must be done.

[monalisasmilesforyou]

@Lgw1984 RATM wrote songs about where they are from, what they believe, and what they want to accomplish in the world. THAT is not hypocritical in the slightest. And has RATM ever said they're communists? You might want to do some research first before you criticize a band as powerful and talented as Rage Against the Machine. Find somewhere else to troll and spread your negativity.

[Lgw1984]

@monalisasmilesforyou

"And has RATM ever said they're communists?"

Well,the EZLN, red star and Guevara shirts gave me the clue... :)

[gibbz91]

@Lgw1984 your an idiot tom guitar cost him about £100 and he sold it for thousands and gave all the money to charity plus 4 people cant change the world and when people like you are in here the world will never change

[Lgw1984]

@gibbz91 When you find a $100 Gibson LesPaul please e-mail me... :)

[giorgosrom0]

@Lgw1984 YOU ARE STUPID

[hardfelony]

Zack's smile is priceless, genuine artists, genuine musicians.......
