Tom Morello‘s set at today’s (October 03rd) ‘Power To The People‘ festival in Columbia, MD saw him welcome numerous guests to the stage. Among them were System Of A Down vocalist Serj Tankian, who in addition to reprising his role on his recent collaborative track with Tankian, “Adjourn It“, also joined in for a cover of Morello‘s past band Audioslave. Tankian once again fronted “Like A Stone“, a song the pair have covered live together in the past.
Morello‘s set also saw a mini-Prophets Of Rage reunion, with Chuck D of Public Enemy and B-Real of Cypress Hill back onstage with him. DMC of RUN-D.M.C. was another featured guest, taking part in a cover of RUN-D.M.C.‘s “It’s Tricky“. A Public Enemy cover with members of the pioneering rap outfit, and a rendition of KISS‘ “Rock And Roll All Nite” with Foo Fighters‘ Dave Grohl, were also among the setlist.
