Rage Against The Machine have promised to play a “free UK victory gig” if ‘Killing In The Name’ beats Joe McElderry’s ‘The Climb’ to Christmas number one tomorrow.

Guitarist Tom Morello wrote on Twitter: “NEWS FLASH: RAGE ANNOUNCE THEY WILL PLAY MASSIVE FREE VICTORY GIG IN UK IF ‘KILLING IN THE NAME’ IS NUMBER ONE XMAS SINGLE!!! Let’s go!!!!”

Promoter Live Nation has today confirmed the gig and revealed that X Factor judge Simon Cowell has been asked to MC. We can’t see him agreeing to that now can you?
