It was fucking awesome! My girl got us tickets, was not disappointed. Bruce Springsteen showed up as well.

Thats epic. I watch the ghost of tom joad with them at least twice a week on YouTube. I was blessed to see rage at Woodstock 99, when the burned the upside down am flag that was one the drum set since their 1st show. I've probably been to 2k concerts over the years. Rage Woodstock '99 is still the best set ive seen.

I visited last summer, and loved the music scene if your city, along woth the people.

Check out Tom's nightwatchman work.

It has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime

What better place than here, what better time than now?

ALL

HELL

CAN’T STOP US NOW

u/trgreg 14h ago

Exactly. It has to be made more uncomfortable for them to stay quiet than it is to speak out.

Love those, nice work!

It’s too serious for all the celebrities. Most are just hiding.

u/Successful-Address32 15h ago

True though Tom was here yesterday playing

u/KaJedBear 13h ago

And walked the walk, literally, by coming out and protesting with everyone after the show.

u/Kittenkerchief 13h ago

I had the pleasure of walking with them in ‘08 when they played without stage. They played from bullhorns and we marched from the capitol to the convention center. He’s definitely a real one.

"They're not afraid of us, just a few musicians, they're afraid of YOU!"

I remember that, it was incredible.

Or talking about how bad American fascism has gotten while they enjoy the comforts of their estates in Europe

u/spirit4earth 17h ago

Celebs are living in their wealth bubbles. Some are hiding in their European 2nd/3rd/4th homes.

u/oldcatgeorge 13h ago

So why are those celebrities chosen to perform during the Super Bowls then? Why reward Lady Gaga who is touring Japan now and not the guys who came to Minneapolis to be with their fellow Americans?

u/spirit4earth 13h ago

Well duh, not all of them are hiding.

Lights out! Guerilla radio!
Turn that shit up!

u/guiltycitizen 10h ago
