On Tuesday, Sept. 2, the rock group Rage Against the Machine made an impromptu appearance at a rally on the grounds of the State Capitol. Midway through the appearance, officials shut off electricity to the event. As another group of marchers approached, the attendees to the State Capitol event merged with the other protesters.

  • RATM#1 Minnesota hasn't had it's knot rocked like that since the militant Teamsters strike of 1934! That very brave, threatened, bloody, attacked, shot at group of the Minneapolis Teamsters Local 574 forged a major part in the foundation of industrial unionism in the U.S. Just I little history I happen to be reading right now: Labor"s Giant Step by Art Preis. And not only did he right the book he was there leading too. -Peace to Rage. You've been an inspiration to us all!

  • Why wasn't this huge news? especially if this concert went down. That would've been a huge monumental occasion. You saw stuff like this in the 60s and the early 90s but no one cares like they used to. No one gets in to whats going on in the world and we need music and upliftment to get people interested again. Forget about other ppls average lives in hollywood and music that portrays greed. The country needs strong intelligent people more than ever. But no one fucking cares. It's sickening.
