Rage Against the Machine “will not be touring or playing live again,” says drummer Brad Wilk in a new statement posted today (Jan. 3).
“Bottom of my heart. Thank you to every person who has ever supported us,” Wilk writes in the caption of a statement that reads:
I know a lot of people are waiting for us to announce new tour dates for all the canceled RATM shows. I don’t want to string people or myself along any further. So while there has been some communication that this may be happening in the future… I want to let you know that RATM (Tim, Zack, Tom and I) will not be touring or playing live again. I’m sorry for those of you who have been waiting for this to happen. I really wish it was…
Brad Wilk
