hahninator Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 If they stay in South America for one week, it looks like there is room for one more show on the 8th or 9th. Maybe Chile. I'd be surprised if they don't do a Brazil headlining show though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be awesome for Linkin Park to do a proper South American Tour in every possible country. Also, I would love for them to announce more shows in Brazil and Argentina but I think it's not probable. :fingers crossed: Edited December 11, 2016 by HybridT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a picture how the setup looks like: Edited December 17, 2016 by LinkInThePark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzo23 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Maybe they will change the stage to the left or to the right and the crowd will be raise to 30.000 or more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinkInThePark Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Maybe they will change the stage to the left or to the right and the crowd will be raise to 30.000 or more I mean they already have 20.000 after 24 hours.Maybe they will get 40.000 at the end. But LP is using this setup quiet a lot for big stadiums like in Kuala Lumpur or China Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hahninator Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 That's incredible. How many tickets were sold? 40,000? 50,000? LP hasn't done something like this in forever. Too bad Peru wasn't at the end of the tour, they could have added a second show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bourdongirl Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) Actually around 26k guys, the band won't accept more than that amount. People here are crazy about make it full stadium but the producers say the band won't let that happen. And yes, we would've love to have a 2nd date, too bad it's not possible =(.

Do you have any idea why the band isnt allowing more than 26k? The gig in Peru will be the most amazing show in South America since São Paulo 2004. im sure about this.

The gig in Peru will be the most amazing show in South America since São Paulo 2004. im sure about this. For what we've been told, seems the band is focusing more on the experience than big audiences. That works great for me, but I feel bad for the ones that couldn't get tickets. The expectations are huge, we can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
