Tom Morello has once again lent his voice to the Occupy movement, this time for their presence at South By Southwest.
While speaking with rollingstone.com, the rocker/activist revealed plans for what he is calling a "flash dance mob party."
"SXSW has a lot of specialty shows - record companies, vodka companies, promoters and things like that. I thought it was important that at a music gathering of that size, to have a place where the rebels, revolutionaries, rockers, rappers and the 99 percent could gather and have a mighty SXSW throw down," Morello says.
"Their intention is to have this flash mob dance party that's going to arrive at the venue," Morello explains. "Due to the fact that it's an official SXSW show, a lot of the space inside is reserved for badge holders, but there will certainly be a healthy Occupy presence in the venue, and also a contingent outside the venue."
