Tuesday the 22nd was Rage Against the Machine in the Sydney Entertainment Centre. Paddy sorted the tickets and we hit town. I was actually nervous going to this gig. There's something every special about seeing a band when they haven't been around for 10 years and you know you will never see them again.
You hope they live up to what you remember them as becuase otherwise that memory is stuck with you forever. Every band plays a bad gig from time to time but from Tuesday night, I reckon it's a rare thing when it's Rage on stage.
I've never seen energy levels that high from a crowd. Aussie crowds are known to be subdued at the best of times but WOW. There was a Mexican wave circling the arena before even stepped on stage. The crowd behaved impeccably and even though there was rough and tumble it was in good spirits.
Enjoy the pics and vids, it was a special night. Lucky my camera got out of there tbh :)
Outside the SEC before we go in... Bought a few T-shirts
