The Machine Rages on!

The rumors are true!!! Rage Against the Machine will be doing just more than one show this year and could lead to other opportunities. The band is confirmed to play this years "Rock the Bells" festival in San Fransisco and making its debut in New York in August. Rage will co-headline the festival with none other than Shaolins WU-TANG CLAN! The last time Rage and Wu toured together was in support of Evil Empire in 1996-1997. The rest of the lineup will be announced soon, as well as ticket info.

In other related news, former Audioslave front man Chris Cornell has confirmed a summer tour in support of his sophomore solo disc entitled Carry On. For his solo trek, Cornell will be playing career spanning tracks from his days in Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Audioslave. His goal is to play every song he has ever written at least once, much like what Springsteen had done on the "Devils and Dust Tour" in 2005. Carry On hits stores in early May.
