[Watch] Rival Schools - "Eyes Wide Open" (Video)
Guys: don't trust beautiful women with intense back tattoos in sexy red dresses. Especially if they have a gun and want to get in a limo with you. That's pretty much what I learned from Rival Schools' new video for their single, "Eyes Wide Open" off their latest release, Pedals.
The band is heading out on tour this fall starting in mid-October. For those of you lucky enough to be in Chicago this weekend for Lollapalooza, you can catch them not once but TWICE over the course of the weekend.
Have a look at dates after the jump.

[Watch] Footage From Rage Against The Machine's First Live Performance
Rage Against The Machine returned to the live scene in '08 after announcing their hiatus in 2000 and it was 9 years prior to that that they made their first ever live outing as a band. Today via CoS/RacingAccidents2 you can watch the bands October 23rd, 1991 performance in front of a small crowd at The Quad in Cal State Northridge. With the band looking unlikely to play anymore live shows after an appearance at L.A. Rising last weekend so soak it up and maybe in 7 years we'll get another reunion tour or something? We can hope right...
