This is a great deal for $35 and it will be Linkin Park's first show in Tucson, Arizona since April 19, 2003 on Projekt Revolution 2003!

 

This seems to be a U.S. warmup show before the European Tour. Do you think they'll add a few more U.S. shows before this one?

If this becomes a mini warm up tour, I hope it comes to NJ, PA or NY.

Finally another venue, i was a bit tired of Shows in Las Vegas before European Tours. Hope they can release GATS and a couple more from The Hunting Party.

Since they are doing this show in AZ on May 24 for Radio spring festivals, I'd probably think that LP will play at this year's KROQ Weenie Roast in Irvine, CA which will probably take place May 17 (Either as a headliner or surprise performance). No info yet though on this year's Weenie Roast.

I wonder if the set will be similar to last full show the band did (Vegas), but with GATS thrown in.

I guess they will release at least one more song before this show.

Yeah I bet Weenie Roast is likely since it's on May 17, just before this. They could do some USA promo around that time. I still think they'll do an LA Hybrid Theory show as a warmup in a small venue.

They need to return to pittsburgh, but I think they'd need more shows around that area before they hit this region. Going from Arizona to the Northeast so quickly would never happen

God I hope so.

It's nice to see that they chose this venue for the warmup show. Since they haven't played in a long time, I wouldn't be surprised if they'll add one or two more shows like this before the tour. Weenie Roast is definitely an option.

Nice to see they are doing a warm up show in AZ. I bet they will do a Club Tattoo signing, too. Pretty good support acts.

There's a SLIGHT chance I may be making it out to Arizona for this show. It falls during my honeymoon and Katie and I were planning on going out to the Grand Canyon and stuff the week after our wedding. We may be in the area that day, just not sure what money's going to look like at that point. Wouldn't complain about being able to do 2 shows in a year for once though.

That'd be epic. Tucson + Carnivores.
