Taking place on June 6, 2010, the gig was a result of a successful Facebook campaign forged by Jon Morter and his ex-wife Tracy to get the band’s 1992 track ‘Killing In The Name’ to Christmas No.1.
This successfully stopped Simon Cowell’s X-Factor single from taking the obligatory No.1 spot.
Only previously available as an extra in the Rage Against The Machine Deluxe Box Set, the twelve track concert film also includes ‘Behind the scenes at Finsbury Park’ footage, as well as an interview with campaigners, the Morters.
Check out some footage from the concert below:
