Rage Against the Machine’s latest tour, which was cut short due to an injury sustained by their lead singer during a performance in Chicago, has left fans wondering about the band’s future plans. In a recent interview with Tom Morello, the guitarist of the band sheds light on the resilience of Rage Against the Machine on tour and their future plans.
Reflecting on the recent tour of Rage Against the Machine, Morello acknowledges that Zack de la Rocha had to perform while seated due to a ruptured Achilles tendon. Despite this, the band’s performance was still powerful and received positive feedback from fans. The songs performed during the tour still felt relevant and impactful, showcasing that Rage Against the Machine remains a political force to be reckoned with.
Morello also addresses misunderstandings around the tour, such as vaccination requirements and ticket prices. The dynamic pricing practice caused an uproar among fans of Bruce Springsteen, but Morello clarified that every penny collected over $125 went to charity. The European leg of their tour was cancelled due to doctor’s orders to avoid risks associated with flying.
When asked about future plans for Rage Against the Machine, Morello emphasizes that it’s not necessarily about touring frequency but rather about each show’s impact. The band may or may not continue touring in the future; however, fans around the world “deserve to see” Rage Against the Machine perform again.
Rage Against the Machine has been nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for the fifth time. Morello expresses his support for the band’s nomination and argues that the hall should also induct artists from different genres. He speculates on the diverse mix of voters for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and believes that artists from various genres deserve to be inducted.
Morello is currently working on a new album in his studio, inspired by his 11-year-old son’s musical talent. He is committed to his music and message and will play shows with his solo band, the Freedom Fighters Orchestra, in South America. Morello hopes to play at the November induction ceremony if Rage Against the Machine is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In conclusion, even though there is no concrete update on future plans for Rage Against the Machine, Tom Morello’s interview highlights the band’s resilience on tour and the impact of their performances. Despite any setbacks, Rage Against the Machine remains a political force to be reckoned with, and fans around the world eagerly await their next move.
