| Videos: Rage Against the Machine go a cappella in St. Paul Contributed by ben_conoley. Posted on Thursday, September 4, 2008 at 12:00 PM (EDT) 
When Rage Against The Machine attempted to play a left wing rally at the Republican National Convention this week, local authorities weren't so sure it was a good idea and shut the show down. While a proper permit was reason enough to ensure Rage couldn't play a real show, the band responded by holding a breakout a cappella session. (166 comments |

I can't decide who I find more condescending: Zach or Palin.

I know someone who was involved in putting this together. The event has put them in a $30,000 hole, but they put together a huge event on the state capitol lawn. This was from that event. They had a proper permit until 7pm. It was an all day festival that featured Anti-Flag, Matisyahu, Dead Prez, and speakers. Rage was a surprise guest and the state troopers prevented them from entering the rally until 6:45pm at which point the power was cut.

I see they've learned the error of their ways after performing at the 2000 Democratic National Convention. Dub-ya has been meaning to thank them for that.

There is so much crazy shit going on in St. Paul right now. Preemptive raids on peaceful protest groups. Downright robbery of video equipment by organizations filming the protests. Detaining reporters for covering protests.

My main beef with Rage is that they were the one band throughout the years that were still "rabble rousing" enough to draw mainstream attention. They broke up, like most bands do, and thats fine, but when they came back it was to, "get Bush out of the office" near the last year of his term.

I had barely any idea about the scale of these protests, especially not the whole police raids and what not.
