Sydney, Linkin Park is playing for you tonight! The band will play their first show at the Acer Arena of the tour....with a second show coming on the 15th with the LPU Summit! An interesting note is that this is the first headlining Linkin Park show where the band has played a venue in the middle of the tour and then comes back LATER after several other shows to play it again. This is their first time playing two venues on the same tour where it's not a back-to-back run of shows! Sweet!

 

LP has played Sydney a total of four times before today, so this is their fifth appearance there at their fourth different venue. In 2001, they played the Enmore Theatre (show page here) where the fans actually broke the floor of the venue on 'In The End'! The band mentioned this in many interviews over the years and even at the 2007 shows in Sydney. In 2003 (no show page) they played at Moore Park for the Livid Festival for a short run of several shows down under. They returned in full force in 2007, playing back-to-back shows at the Sydney Entertainment Centre for the third-to-last and second-to-last shows of that tour (show pages here and here).

 

We've had four shows so far on this tour.... the first 3 had the exact same setlist but the last show in Adelaide (show page here) featured a "new" setlist for the band. They didn't debut anything different but mainly just changed the order of songs with a collaboration of the main setlist they've been playing and that new London night 2 setlist. It was the first time that 'Crawling' appeared in the encore since September 2004!

 

'Burning In The Skies' was rumored to be on the setlist for the last show (no official confirmation on that yet), so do you think we'll see it tonight? Do you think the band will play it during this tour? At the last show's M&G, it was said that Brad is the one that is holding the band up in playing it....hmmm! What setlist do you think we'll see tonight?

 

Who's going tonight? Does anyone have a M&G? Anyone thinking about playing 'Faint' on guitar? Everyone cool with the fact the band is bringing up fans to play 'Faint' now like they did back on the Meteora World Tour in 2004? Badass, right? Read Lewis's experience of playing 'Faint' at the LAST show during the tour HERE. The DSP's for this tour should start arriving very shortly as well.

 

Here's a video of 'Faint' from Adelaide with good ole Lewis rocking out up there!

I'm going tonight as well, I got picked for the meet and greet! Stoked... should ask if I can play the drums, not a very good guitarist. xD

 

I'm gonna give mike an album of my original music, hopefully he will listen to it and maybe feature it on his blog. Imagine how many people Mike can suggest to me if that happens! Fingers crossed.

 

Time to get in the car and drive to canberra where a plane is waiting to take me to sydney. :D

cheers for the shout-out dude, happy to help. will be updating tonight as well guys - much easier from the stands rather than front of the pit! hoping for something new - i've got a feeling we'll get setlist A... but you never know - maybe a repeat of... is it setlist D we're up to now?

 

either way - should be a good show - am i right in saying this one is sold out?

In Adelaide someone asked if they could play drums and Mike said that Rob is working with Jo with all the samples... As in, Hahn governs tempo because of the samples so they probably wont ever let anyone do drums... But anyone who can play bass... That's what you should go for becuase they were keen as to get someone to do the bass!

 

On a side note, I can't wait to see what setlist they'll play.. I'm thinkin 'D', But you never know, I'll be awaiting Narc's updates. You're a legend Narc85.
