Awesome live experience. All the songs are epic. My only complaint is the engineering of the album--the bass doesn't sound as powerful as it should be.
They Rock!!!!!

Granted I'm not the world's biggest Rage Against The Machine fan, but I own all of their studio albums including the XX RATM and, of course this Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium album. And for the life of me I can't figure out just why there are so many 4-5 star reviews for this terrible live album. The sound quality of this is worth a very generous two stars, at best. Truly it sounds like it was recorded in the parking lot a half-mile away.
For any casual fan thinking of getting this as a 'greatest hits live' kind of thing- DON'T, instead get the studio albums (The XX RATM has 3 live tracks). All of the studio albums are seminal, legendary discs worthy of 4-5 stars, but this live album DOES NOT do these legends justice.
One of the best live albums ever.

Rage Against The Machine is hands down one of the best nu metal bands in the world. They revolutionized funk metal and rap-rock/rap-metal. They have a killer bassist. Not only are they amazing and epic, they put on great live shows. I own this album on CD, and am currently listening to it.
Tom has a great voice live as well as on a regular album.
"Born Of A Broken" man is a perfect song. It's my favorite track off this album.
10/10, buy it.
WAs there when they recorded it!

This is probably one of the greatest live albums ever to be created. This group is so tight on the stage, it's insane. And how they incorporate the crowd into their music, and switch up the lyrics every now and then, it's just remarkable. Best money ever spent. 5/5.
A must have 4 Rage fans

Though i wasn't at this show, i did attend the opening show of this tour at the Oakland Coliseum and can definitively say that it was one of the best shows I ever went to and I've been to alot of good ones. I still have visions of the entire floor of the Coliseum, literally becoming a giant mosh pit as they kicked up the energy to crazy levels. It's one of the few concerts I've ever been to where I can still conjure up the sensations of how it felt to be at the show just by thinking about it. This album isn't as good as being there live, but it's pretty close.
Amazing

This is truely an amazing live album. RATM did something that most live acts aren't able to pull off. They managed to bring all of the magic from the original studio recordings without making them sound mechanical or stiff. They put all of the energy that their legendary live shows were known for on record. All of the songs are performed perfectly, although a live rendition of "Wake Up" from their debut album would have just made this album transendent, but at the end of the day, this is the greatest testament to an amazing band.
P.S.
Reunite, the world needs RATM now more then ever!
COME BACK!

God, If this is my last prayer, let it be for a return of RATM. They defined rebels and I think they are way too good to be gone from the alternative scene. COME BACK RAGE!
Cool!

the songs are even more intense and powerful with the addition of a screaming audience. The album also serves as a kind of greatest hits CD as well considering it has most of the best songs from throughout their career.

A above average Live album that showcases all of Rage's best work. Only faults is ocasionally De La Rocha messes up and Morrelo's effects don't always work but other whys good job. They do the rare job of letting you hear the audiance.
Really Great
