Synopsis
Alternative rock-rap band Rage Against The Machine have set themselves apart from the hordes of similar bands through their attachment to political causes. Paying special attention to the causes of Mexico, particularly by supporting the rebel group the Zapatistas, their October 1999 Mexico City concert was more than just a rocking good time, but also served as a show of solidarity. In addition to containing lively renditions of songs like "Bulls On Parade," "No Shelter," and "Testify," this video features an interview by singer Zach de la Rocha with radical media critic Noam Chomsky and a speech from a Zapatista leader.

Customer Reviews

One of greatest live acts in music history
Outside Mexico City's Sports Pavilion hundreds of young Rage fans rattle metal fences and throw rocks at the increasingly nervous police. Inside, a seething crowd of 5,000 lucky ticket holders cram into the cavernous pavilion chanting anti-government slogans and poking their middle fingers into the thick, sweaty air while waiting for Rage Against The Machine to storm the stage.
One of greatest live acts in music history, Rage only affirms that fact with this show . Whatever club, theater, arena, of stadium they're in, the opening of each Rage Against The Machine show always feels like a grenade has gone off. But this night it was as if a truckful of bombs blew up as the band tore into the opening salvo of "Testify". Fans cascaded toward the stage like rippling waves stopping only to pogo up-and-down like jackhammers.
Longtime supporters of various political causes in Mexico, Rage were perfoming for the very first time in Mexico City. The connection between the audience and the band is electric. From the early "all hell can't stop us now" chant in "Guerrilla Radio" to the blood-curdling screams in the finale of "Freedom", there is an urgency at this show that is unrivaled. This is love rock & roll as it's meant to be heard: fierce, funky, uncompromising. This is Rage Against The Machine in their finest hour.
Here someone wrote that it had a time delay on DVD. The rejected disk has possibly simply got. At me such problem was not. A fantastic sound. A concert excellent, buy and enjoy. Unforgettable night, 5/5!!!

"BULLS ON PARADE!"
The band last tour outside US before the farewell performance at the
the Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles.

This is worth a collection!

I recommend this to all RATM fanatics!

FEEL THE RUSH!

Its Rage Against the Machines finest hour!

Excellent
Another great performance DVD from Rage (Olymipic Auditorium is arguably more essential due to the fact it's their last show and features Renegades songs). The set list is great and the performance is, as usual, phenomenal.
I would argue that the extras are somewhat lacking, but who cares when the show is so good.
In reference to the sync problem, it is only noticable in the first song Testify. I couldnt see any sync problems at any other time in the DVD so dont let that put you off.
However, if you only buy one Rage DVD, make it Olympic Auditorium for a better crowd atmosphere and brilliant extras.
