''Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium'' is the final album released by the band Rage Against The Machine , on November 25 , 2003 . It is a recording of the final two shows Rage played at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles on September 12 th and 13th , 2000 . The album was originally planned to be released in November 2000 , but was delayed due to the break-up of the band shortly after the September concerts. It was then slated for release a year later, but was again delayed due to the formation of Audioslave by the remaining three members of Rage ( Tom Morello , Tim Commerford , and Brad Wilk ) with vocalist Chris Cornell (formerly of Soundgarden ). The album was finally released amid mixed reviews in November 2003 . Despite some criticism that it does not do Rage the justice they deserve, it remains a reminiscent portrait of one of the most important bands of the 1990s in its twilight.
