Rage Against The Machine has announced an additional tour date in Minneapolis, Minnesota during the Republican National Convention.

The show will take place at the Target Center on September 3 while the Convention is scheduled to take place from September 1-4 according to Minneapolis’ Star Tribune.

In addition, guitarist Tom Morello will be performing a show with fellow social activist Steve Earle  at a union rally at St. Paul’s Harriet Island on September 1.

The date was announced following a chaotic performance at Lollapalooza where singer Zack de la Rocha needed to stop the band’s performance three times due to the crushing of fans in the front rows.
