With the latest release of "A Thousand Suns", Linkin Park's musical pieces and artwork has evolved to a whole new level. And now on September 9th, 2011, the night before the Thousand Suns Japan Tour final performance, you will witness Linkin Park like never before with a completely new art show at Roppongi nicofarre.
A Thousand Horizons Show
We will be streaming a special art film combining the unpublished remix of "A Thousand Suns" (world premiere) and nicofarre's visual effect. After the show ends Linkin park will be doing a talk session and you can view all this over at Nico Live! Don't miss out!!
Thoughts on all of this? Do we have any users attending the event? Let us know!
Sounds like a DVD title to me for some reason...maybe they'll finally release a DVD like Frat Party for the ATS cycle, that'd be amazing.

It'd probably be in black and white though

Possible ideas? New DVD like Frat Party, possible LPU Summit in Tokyo, the name of the tour in Asia?

I am confused about "a Tokyo" not just Tokyo

Maybe it'll be a Live-DVD with the or one Tokyo from this year. And 'A Tokyo' maybe, because the show would play in Tokyo, but if you buy and watch it at home, not living in Tokyo, you see LP playing a show in Tokyo at your home -> so the place you watch the DVD could be the Tokyo they mean.
Sorry for this complicated explanation

i think "a tokyo" has nothing to say. sounds just more interesting than "coming to tokyo soon", in my opinion. i highly doubt it's gonna be something like Frat Party, since it's clearly restricted to tokyo. Maybe ATS front to back, I don't know.

In my opinion i think its a live bootleg cd/dvd like live in Texas and im thinking we are gonna see a new setlist also, i just have a gut feeling.

If they play a new set in Japan, they'll probably play that set in Florida. I'm going to Florida. That would be dope.

lmao at all the speculations, nothing really great has come out the ATS cycle so lets just wait and see what this is . and lol at people saying new sets.

"Coming soon to a ___ near you" is a common expression.
When considering Joe's sense of humor it makes perfect sense.

Sounds like a DVD title to me. I hope its something like Frat Party. It'd be cool if they had commentaries for all of their music videos, extended making of's or something along those lines.

Brad mentioned in the recent LPU chat that he was looking forward to debuting Robot Boy "in a special setting" or something to that effect. With that in mind, the only thing I can think of that makes any sense is that they'll be doing ATS all the way through when they play in Tokyo. I'd be shocked if it was anything different.
The DVD idea makes no sense whatsoever, they wouldn't have a title ready before they even play the show that they're recording, and they probably wouldn't inform people of where it was being filmed ahead of time either.

It makes perfect sense as a Remix album...however, probably not something that cool.

I wish it were a remix album, but somehow I have a feeling that LP won't do that again. It also could be something like a Tour Documentary, but it's true that it would be weird to announce that before it's shot.
I've collected some funny ideas of LP fans on Twitter and put them up in a poll. Don't take them all serious! XD You can vote here: https://adiek84.wordpress.com/2011/08/23/li...usand-horizons/ My fav ones are: a restaurant in Tokyo and "it's nothing, they just like to lead us on" XD

It'll probably be a Live DVD by the sound of it ... whatever it is it'll be cool
i for one dont want another frat party type of DVD. The only reason that dvd worked was because it was a mixture of live/tour and FUN. They are old and 'mature' now and i just dont think they can pull off the spontaneous fun and laughter they used to do.

A Thousand Horizons sounds like a Documental DVD from a Live Tour.

Though I highly doubt it, an EP of ATS b-sides would be awsome.

A short film based on A Thousand Suns? I dunno. A secret document somewhere mentioned a film.

Have you seen their recent LPTV episodes? They're as lively as ever, they're not exactly as old as the Rolling Stones or anything.

i don't think that would happen but it would be awesome. i would love that!
i agree with Astat, probably ATS in full or maybe just Robot Boy. It's usally not Joe that tells us were getting something so maybe this time we are actually getting something unlike previous times where they say we are getting something special and we don't

Maybe ATH is the real album and ATS was just a bad joke the whole time.

Wow. I think this is just the tour title.... But you guys have fun speculating. Would bet real money though that its NOT a new setlist. I think the band has proven many times that they're loving the current setlist and won't be adding any "old" stuff soon. The only change I could possible see is the premier of Robot Boy, but nothing beyond that.

The tour has always been just known as the ATS tour so why would Japan be any different and get another name for it.

maybe it's a name of new album that coming in the beginning of 2012 and in Tokyo, in this tour, they'll play some songs from it... crazy idea, but...
How can you say it looks fucking awesome when it's all in Japanese? Lol! I'm intrigued to find out what it is as it sounds like some sort of museum exhibition from the brief description that I could read - anyone got a translator?

it looks like it will be cool. from what i get they will be broadcasting a documentry(art thing) witch will have a remixed version of ATS. then they will broadcast there live show witch will have new visuals and maybe ATS in full. they will also be selling Nendoroid toys of all lp members (i think) plus on the website there asking people from all over to send pics in and a video of you singing or lip syncing to iridescent

to make some of you stop bouncing off walls when you saw "remix". "Remix" means a new mix of the songs. So i'm thinking a 5.1 mix. Not Reinterps of all the songs. I may be tottally wrong but I think people need to realise that when they say remix they don't mean "renamiation" every time.
