Rage Against the Machine reunion? Police too?

Forget Audioslave, we need some Rage Against the Machine back on stage reports Ultimate-Guitar:
Rage Against The Machine, the seminal L.A. band that made heavy music into political manifesto, will reunite after a seven-year lull for one show as the headliners at the 2007 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Sources say Rage, which played the main stage at the first Coachella in 1999, will be joined by other familiar faces for the eighth edition of the festival, which covers three days this year and begins April 27: Red Hot Chili Peppers, which headlined in 2003, are back, as is Björk, who topped the bill in 2002.
Those Police reunion rumors are only getting stronger by 80 times too says Rolling Stone:
These reports also claim that the band is about to announce 80 post-Grammy tour dates, which rocks less. Nothing deflates excitement about getting into that ONE special reunion show like the idea that there will be 79 more. Should they play 80 dates? Totally. Should they tell us that’s the plan? No way. (And when’s that Genesis get-together scheduled?)
I disagree. When you work for Rolling Stone and can get tickets to any show you want, you probably just want there to be ONE special reunion show. For the rest of us, the band has to tour. Sorry.
