Well, all good things come to those who wait. And in this case, it'll be a TWO YEAR wait since they initially announced this thing. Two years after its original start date, Rage Against The Machine's highly anticipated Public Service Announcement Tour for North America has now announced rescheduled tour dates for 2022 (38 dates total). This is the first time the band will be back together since 2011.The reunion tour will kick off in March and run through the summer with special guest Run the Jewels. Where's the Philly date tho? Guess I'm gonna have to HIT ALL 5 OF THE MSG SHOWS DAWG. Let's GO!

Via Blabbermouth:

Fans who had previously purchased tickets to see Rage Against the Machine on the tour that was originally scheduled to begin in March of last year can retain their tickets as all previous purchases will be honored. Tickets are still available for purchase as well and additional dates from the original schedule have been added too. The reunited quartet — Zack De La Rocha, Tom Morello, Brad Wilk and Tim Commerford — was originally set to kick off its run of shows in March 2020, and then postponed it until 2021. The "Public Service Announcement" tour will now launch March 31, 2022 in El Paso, Texas. RUN THE JEWELS will provide support on the trek. Tickets will be honored for the postponed shows.

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE last played together at L.A. Rising and has resisted calls for a reunion, with vocalist De La Rocha previously believed to be the lone holdout. Guitarist Morello and his fellow RAGE bandmates Commerford (bass) and Wilk (drums) have since teamed up with PUBLIC ENEMY's Chuck D. and CYPRESS HILL's B-Real in the similarly styled PROPHETS OF RAGE.
