Now you Sue what they told ya - could SuBo join forces with Rage Against The Machine this summer?
The Californian rap-rockers are playing a free gig in the park on June 6 to celebrate their Christmas Number 1 in the UK with "Killing in the Name". The band promised the free victory gig to fans who took their 1992 track to the top slot following a Facebook campaign.
Some X-Factor fans felt the campaign was a deliberate slight against the TV show, but De La Rocha explained that the band love vocalist Boyle and said, "The truth is Simon's shows occasionally produce talent.To show there are no hard feelings we would like her to perform with us on
stage this summer."
He added, ""She is a great vocalist and we would love to perform Killing In The Name with
her. Everybody knows her in the US and she can add her vocals to anything.
It would be an honour for us."
Tickets for the 6 June gig have now all been allocated. The lineup for the full day of live music has yet to be confirmed, but is rumoured to include Cypress Hill and Does It Offend You, Yeah? RATM will also be playing in Dublin on June 8 and headlining the Download Festival.
Boyle's management have yet to comment on the possibility of a live collaboration.
