| RageAgainstTheMachine: | For the official Rage tour itenerary, check out ratm.com. Keep checking the site for the on-sale dates, some of which have yet to be determined. |
| Moderator1: | Now you've completed your album, are you completely happy with every song? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: Absolutely. I think that it is clearly our best album today. It is our most cohesive, most rocking, and funkiest album so far. |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | We have really gelled as a band and are totally proud of The Battle of Los Angeles. |
| Moderator1: | You guys used to play a song live in 1994 that I think was called "Producer". What ever happened to that song? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Brad: It's just a song that we kind of played as a jam at the time. There's a few songs like that floating around that were kind of left behind, which is kind of cool, because kids can get them off of live records. |
| Moderator1: | What is your favorite song to play live? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | YtimK: Killing in the Name is the best song that any band will ever play live. |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Brad: Freedom. |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: With so many to choose from, it's a difficult choice. But I might have to agree with Timmy, Killing in the Name is a song that stirs the crowd in every city on every continent into such a frenzy, that it is really hard to believe. |
| Moderator1: | You guys seem to have high expectations for "The Battle of Los Angeles". Did you have high expectations for the debut and Evil Empire when they were released, too? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: We did have high artistic expectations for the Battle of Los Angeles and I think we've exceeded them. Commercial success is out of our hands. Whether it sells ten copies or ten million copies, we've made the record of our careers, and that's really our only responsibility. |
| Moderator1: | Do you think Leonard Peltier will ever be granted executive clemency? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: The only chance that Leonard Peltier has for being set free from prison is if YOU demand it. The only way that Clinton or the next president is going to be forced to act is if the American people demand it and hold our leaders accountable for their inaction in Leonard Peltier's case. |
| Moderator1: | I have noticed when you play live Tom and Tim get next to the drum kit and kind of talk. What are you usually talking about? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | YtimK: We usually talk about what we're doing and how we can do it better. We're trying to figure out a way to make the explosion bigger. |
| Moderator1: | What do u guys think of the thriving L.A. new metal scene? i think of u guys as a pioneer of all of it. |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: What exactly is the "thriving LA metal scene"? |
| Moderator1: | Hey, you guys kick major ass and i heard guerrila radio and i was so glad to hear that it was like your old stuff and i was wondering if the rest of the cd is like that because i really hate when bands change and try new styles. |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | YtimK: No love songs, nothing but just hard music, all 12 songs. No bullshit. Just Rage Against the Machine. |
| Moderator1: | Will there be any bands opening for you on your tours? |
| RageAgainstTheMachine: | Tom: Yes, there will. But we've not decided who yet. |
| Moderator1: | What did the band think of the rock for life article? |
