Until this, which was a one off, they'd only been here once as part of a festival as well.

They play the Download Festival next weekend.

Still no proper touring. It's like the Black Crowes all over again, which means they'll break up again next year.

Not true, especially in America. They have played some shows here in the USA since re-uniting (9 cities by my count), but there are still a lot of markets they haven't covered.

There has only been 1 reunion show within 600 miles of where I live, and it was one of the very first reunion shows. The only reason I didn't go was because I figured a full-blown headlining tour was sure to follow. I'm still kicking myself for that one.

Also, I don't think they've gone to Canada at all since reuniting.

I would absolutely kill to see Rage live. I don't event think they have played a show on the East Coast yet since they got back together.

I don't think they have ever played more than 70-80 min sets.

Not even sure how much this qualifies as "back together" seeming they only play a few times a year at the biggest possible shows. I would venture to guess they still hate each other but have bills to pay and lifestyles to maintain.

I wouldn't. Not seeing how much they were clearly enjoying themselves last night.

I saw Rage on the battle of LA tour with gangstar and ATDI. It was one of the best show I've ever seen in my life and that's out of a couple hundred. I saw them again at rock the bells NY in 07 and it was kick ass besides the whole war criminals speech. We were really close and saw a lot of great pit action that was intense, yet managable. It was also crazy jumping in unison with the 54,000 or so people behind me. The setlist in '99 was the best because back then you got all the great songs plus the non-album ones like No Shelter and Tom Joad.
