RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE's MORELLO To Co-Host 'Rock 30' This Weekend
April 19, 2007Guitarist Tom Morello will co-host L.A. Lloyd's "Rock 30" on 25 radio affiliates the weekend of April 21-22. Tom will discuss the RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE reunion shows along with his solo project THE NIGHTWATCHMAN. Many stations stream online. Here is a link to affiliates and show times. The interview was conducted in Austin, TX at this year's SXSW (South by Southwest) music conference where Tom played and promoted songs from his THE NIGHTWATCHMAN album.
Morello and RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE singer Zack De La Rocha took to the stage together for the first time in nearly seven years in Chicago on Saturday (April 14). Their appearance was part of a demonstration and rally-turned-celebration for the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, an organization of immigrant farm workers who pick vegetables for big businesses like McDonald's.
The rally was meant to be a protest, but just before the march was to begin, a McDonald's rep told the crowd their demands had been met. So the rally, due to inclement weather and that fact that it was now a celebration of the news of the agreement, moved indoors at the House of Blues.
The set started out with Morello coming out alone as THE NIGHTWATCHMAN, performing several songs from his upcoming "One Man Revolution" CD. After that, De La Rocha took the stage to perform a brand new song about the event that he had written on the plane ride from Los Angeles to Chicago.
At that point Morello joined in, and the duo performed the RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE songs "People of the Sun", "Bulls on Parade" and "Down Rodeo".
