RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE Kick Off Reunion Tour: Video + Setlist

11 July 2022

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE took the stage for the first time in 11 years at the Alpine Valley Music Theater in East Troy, Wisconsin on Saturday night.

The show marked the launch of the band’s long-awaited “Public Service Announcement Tour.”

Originally set to begin in 2020, the trek was twice pushed back due to the pandemic. The initial run of North American shows nows takes place through the middle of August, followed by a UK/European outing in the fall, and a second leg of North American shows in early 2023. Tickets are available here.

During Saturday’s gig in East Troy, RATM ripped through a 16-song performance of fan favorites and greatest hits - check the full setlist below.

The members of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE did not speak at all during the performance. Instead, messages, photos, and video were displayed on a background video screen. One message read, “abort the Supreme Court,” while another noted the financial cost of forced birth. There were also images of a helicopter descending on a group of refugees, a border patrol agent posing with a drone, and police officers with their weapons drawn while detaining a man.
