Morello and de la Rocha to pair up before Coachella

Rage Against The Machine members Tom Morello and Zack de la Rocha are set to play together before their high-profile festival reunion.

As previously reported the reunited band are set to play together for the first time since 2000 at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, which will take place over the weekend of April 27-29.

However, Morello and de la Rocha are set to play for free at the 2007 Coalition of Immokalee Workers Truth Tour in Chicago on April 14.

The rally comes after the announcement that McDonalds will meet the demands of the CIW, an organisation whose members are largely immigrant working in low-wage jobs.

The duo will be part of a parade and carnival that make its way through downtown Chicago and return to Federal Plaza for a celebration featuring CIW members, reports Punk News.
