There was a concert today, January 30th, at the First Avenue nightclub in Minneapolis. Local music legend Ike Reilly was joined by Tom Morello (formerly of Rage Against the Machine) and Bruce Springsteen for the Defend Minnesota benefit concert, including a performance of Springsteen's latest release, "Streets of Minneapolis."

Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello Slams Hegseth Over Wounded Knee Medals

Morello: “What the f*ck is wrong with these people”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has decided that U.S. soldiers who received Medals of Honor for the 1890 Wounded Knee massacre will keep them, ending a review begun under the Biden administration. The massacre, in which Army forces killed hundreds of Lakota Sioux—many of them women and children—has long been condemned as one of the darkest chapters in U.S. history.

Bruce made a surprise appearance at Tom Morello’s benefit show for the people of Minneapolis today (January 30, 2026) and performed “Streets of Minneapolis” solo and “The Ghost of Tom Joad” with Morello. Screenshots taken by me from a Facebook livestream of the show.
