Rage Against The Machine Make Me Wonder Why No One Knows The Difference Between “Peek” And “Peak” Anymore

Professional agitators Rage Against The Machine have already announced that they’re playing a Minneapolis concert as the Republican National Convention takes place there next month, and today came an announcement that they’d be headlining an anti-war show in Denver that just happens to be timed so that it coincides with the Democratic National Convention. (The Coup and the whitey rappers Flobots are also on the bill.) Brooklyn Vegan’s post of the show had the above screenshot of a page on the DNC site, and I like to think that it serves as a snapshot of how our country’s future leaders want to change… the meanings of homophonic words. Sigh. Anyway, if you’re going to be in the Denver area, info on the Rage show is after the jump.

Rage Against the Machine has joined forces with the Iraq Veterans Against the War and Tent State University to perform as part of the “Tent State Music Festival to End the War” on Wednesday, August 27 at the Denver Coliseum. They will join the Flobots, The Coup, State Radio, and Wayne Kramer. Doors open at 9:30 AM, show begins at 11:00 AM.

Tickets are free and available by lottery. Sign up for the lottery, with a valid photo ID (person must be present) at Tent State University at Cuernavaca Park between 11AM and 6:30 PM (look for the Tent State Music Festival booth near the IVAW Tower) Sunday, August 24 through Tuesday, August 26 during the D.N.C. Winners will be notified by email Tuesday evening, August 26.
