stich Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) Just when we thought that Linkin Park was done announcing shows for this year, they have added one more. From the band's Facebook page, "Secret’s out! We’ll be closing out this year’s #BlizzCon on November 7th. More details at BlizzCon.com - Watch the concert LIVE online with the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket: http://smarturl.it/0u0ich" The show takes place at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California and will be streamed for everyone to watch online in HD. Unfortunately, the streaming costs $39.99. Tickets to the actual show are $199 and can be purchased here. Previous performers at BlizzCon include Metallica and Blink 182. Metallica played for just over an hour and a half and Blink 182 performed about 85 minutes, so somewhere in that range will likely be how long Linkin Park plays. This will be the third show for Linkin Park in November.... 2015.11.01 Tempe, AZ, Tempe Beach Park, Monster Mash2015.11.07 Anaheim, CA, Anaheim Convention Center, BlizzCon2015.11.14 Los Angeles, CA, L.A. River Studios, Relief Live! Will anyone be attending? Edited October 20, 2015 by Hahninator Quote
hahninator Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 $40 is really expensive to stream something. Quote
stich Posted October 20, 2015 Author Posted October 20, 2015 $40 is really expensive to stream something. Hope someone is willing to pay for it and record it Quote
Coizu Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 $40 is really expensive to stream something. You have to consider that the $40 are for the whole BlizzCon and not just the LP stream. Still pretty expensive though. If you are a fan of the Blizzard games and their esports tournaments at the convention I think it's worth it though. Quote
hahninator Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 I guess so. An option for $15-20 for just LP would have been nice. Speaking of streaming, it'd be cool if LP streamed their Relief Live show online via VyRT. Quote
GlassCastles Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 They've charged $40 every year they've streamed it. It comes with a bunch of extra shit, usually, all of which will be meaningless to most people here. A stream-only option would be nice, but they've never done that before. Quote
Astat Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Yeah, BlizzCon offers a bunch of in-game perks to people who buy virtual tickets. I know there's been an exclusive Hearthstone cardback in the past, for example. Quote
dagla Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 There are usually restreams of Blizzcon on russian sites like sc2tv.ru or cybergame.tv Quote
hahninator Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 There's been no proper California show since 2014, you could argue The Wiltern in Oct 2014 was one, but definitely Irvine, LA, Chula Vista, Wheatland, and Concord. I guess that's why they aren't doing a normal Cali/LA show this year. I thought they'd do a club show around this time. Even if they didn't want to do a show for HT on 10/24, I'm surprised they aren't doing just some "oh come join us in LA for a celebration show in November for 15 years of the LPU" or something. 2014 had 12 Cali shows, 11 were for THP, and then 2 this year, so 13 for one album is a lot of shows in one state.

It's also where the band is from so it isn't like they are travelling incredibly far. 10+ shows in NYC in one year would be a lot for them, but a lot of bands play shows constantly in their home area.

It is frustrating, but you have to understand that the band is from California. So naturally, they are going to play a lot in California. Quote
chmaaoges Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Hopefully they will not play the same set they've been playing for the last six months. I know debuting a new song is a loooooooooooooooot of work but I hate to see them play the same shit over and over and over and over again. Some songs I can really do without in the set. Quote
