Rocking On
GENERAL By Devin Chanda on May 12, 2009 at 4:48 pmI never questioned my decision to skip out on copping a few pairs of the Fire Red III’s as I scrapped together the cash to scoop three tickets to see a re-united Rage Against The Machine at the 2007 Rock The Bells (my two homeboys weren’t exactly willing to pay $130 a pop to see a rock band and I didn’t want to brave my first festival alone).
A few Zach war cries and Tom Morello solos later, two Southside, Queens niggas were moshing to “Bullet In The Head,” bloodied up — and wanting more.
I even recouped some of my extra $260 outlay a few weeks later.
Two years later, Zach might still be in hiding, but Tom — liberated from Chris Cornell’s mainstream yearnings — has continued to rock on, with Boots Riley in tow.
That’ll more than suffice.

Rage Against The Machine, jeah!
Do my kicks match my new era? Piss off!
The Rage man, the RAGE!!!!!!!! Yeah!
Big Zach and Morello always cold rock the spot.
Is there something fundamentally wrong w/clothing Paw?
Anyways, I remember the white boys I used to smoke w/put me on to RATM when they first came out.
@Gotty, you can put the cool in clothes but the clothes cannot put the cool in you. No matter how expensive or cheap the piece you sporting is, that’s the key fundemental right there.
^ I swear he’s just trying so say stuff to be different or to piss ppl off
@Pro Jay, if you here, I just found one which actually is on par (if not better) than the Betty Boo video. Check this out, is that Spike Lee?

in all honesty…its been a slow downward spiral for RATM since Evil Empire
BOLA was pretty good though
Lol, I don’t pay him no mind b/c it’s his opinion. You’ve always got someone going against the grain. I guess I’m just curious as to how deep rooted his sentiments are.
If the man wants to walk around in doo-doo brown dickies, a purples shirt & orange crocs, that’s kosher w/me lol.

I saw them with the Wu not really my thing but it was cool
My man just said Orange crocs! LMAO
I actually liked Audioslave’s 1st album lol.
I used to think Zach was such a poser till I heard “Testify”.
@Gotty, this season I’ll mostly be sporting a camoflage dashiki, with an indigo kufi to match and perhaps a Slick Rick eye patch, and I’ll walk around talking tough like that geeza from Snatch. Go on giz a job guv’na, gawd bless yee Mary Poppins, in my past life I was a 14 year old boy named Tommy Cobbles who was a chimney sweep during Victorian era London. ;)
Ha ha, chill, I’m only jesting. You’re cool peoples Gotty, TSS is major!
