Live At The Grand Olympic Auditorium Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. “Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium” is the second live album by the rap metal band Rage Against the Machine, released on November 25, 2003, by Epic Records. It captures the energy of two shows that Rage played at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in their hometown of Los Angeles on September 12 and 13, 2000. Originally planned for release in November 2000, the album faced delays due to the band’s breakup shortly after the September concerts. It was later rescheduled for release a year later but faced further delays due to the formation of Audioslave by the remaining three members of Rage (Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, and Brad Wilk) with vocalist Chris Cornell. Formed in 1991, Rage Against The Machine comprises vocalist Zack de la Rocha, bassist and backing vocalist Tim Commerford, guitarist Tom Morello, and drummer Brad Wilk. The band is renowned for its members’ revolutionary political views, which are prominently expressed in many of their songs.
