In September of 1996, Rage Against The Machine played a sold out show at the Spanish Fork Fairgrounds.

The band was accidentally booked, as city officials didn’t know who Rage Against The Machine was, or the type of music they played. Weeks leading up to the show, the whole town was in a panic worried about their “satanic” music. The night of the performance, people left their jobs early, locked their doors and closed their blinds, not knowing what kind of hell would be raised. 

They played their show, teens came from all over the state, went through high security, and somehow SURVIVED. Which is why I want to bring Rage back to Spanish fork, and I need your help!
