I being a rage fan have some pent up angst, not necessarily what Rage is angry about, but i do find solace in the fact that they are unsettled about things and can emote that in songs. If anything their anti-establishment feeling is what draws fans and the fact that they are popular may be a sign of a disgruntled generation. I think "anger is a gift." What's the point of music anyway you pompous ass?

Doing so is akin to worshipping at the feet of Mick Jagger - although his longevity may grant him a bit more credibility than RATM. Good lord, grow up people. RATM plays these kinds of events with political implications because those events are a niche - a little slot which allows them to remain in front of the public eye and generates sales of their music - if you care to call it that.
