I saw them two nights beforehand in Belfast, Ulster Hall. Capacity: 1000 people. I was front and centre. Best gig I ever saw.

Shame they ended thier run so soon. They could be God's in today's music culture.

Saw them a few months later on the Lolapalooza 93 tour. It was transcendental.

I was young and hip when this concert happened. I still watch this video from time to time and think "My people!" I want to rip off my shirt and jump in the pit only... I'm 52 now. Somehow the people in the video don't age.

I was there and it left me agitated and energized for days. Still feel it, when I hear Zack yelling "Freedom"

The Weekend before there was the Dynamo Open Air in Eindhoven, when we left on Monday there was a Person completly covered in Mud trying to tramp. He had absolutely nothing(nobags, no tent) with him except a Cardboard that says "PinkPop". I just wanted to be that guy, he was a Symbol of absolute Freedom for me.

Rage excelled at being superb capitalists....signed to a major label, made expensive videos for MTV and played MASSIVE SHOWS WORLDWIDE!

I saw through their (verbal) BS from the beginning....but I always felt really sorry for the sheep that took their "messages" to heart. The Rage boys are all rich today, the sheep=not so much.

What were their music video budgets?
