Alright, I understand that this was the first time they'd ever played New Divide in front of any kind of public audience, and they've had some time off and probably haven't rehearsed a whole lot yet...but that had to be the most horribly out-of-tune I've EVER heard Chester sing. I hope the other songs weren't that bad.

 

Also, looking at the setlist, the rehearsal set probably had Faint 2nd and Numb 3rd too and whoever reported it just mixed them up. WID > Faint is something they did a bunch in '08, makes more sense.

Thank you! i was hoping i wasn't the only one to hear that... at some points i was wincing at the bad notes he sang. Quite outta the norm for chester. He hits bad notes yeah, hes not perfect... and to sing on key 100% live without help, is almost impossible, but he can DEF do better

Glad I'm not the only one to notice that, haha. After 10 years of band and 3 years of intense music studies, things like that really get to me. I don't think it was as bad as some of the early performances of SOTD, but still.

In The End:

Bleed It Out:

Chester sounds much better on these than he did on New Divide. Guess he just has to get used to singing a new song live, the first performances of songs like Shadow of the Day and In Pieces were pretty bad too.

 

Also, I'd like to remind everyone that Linkin Park nearly ALWAYS has cameras at their shows projecting stuff onto big screens. They mean absolutely nothing in regards to proshot video recordings.

I wasn't VIP at Tranformers 2 Linkin Park concert, but it felt like it when the lead singer & lead guitarist came out on our side like you see in the vids--cool:)

 

As for tiks to this, it was under KROQ invite via email only right by UCLA last night--Parking Lot #9.

 

I thank my daughter (who was w/ me) very much for helping me get to see this--it was worth the wait!

 

Thanks to all the IPOD people. They got a good glimpse of this stuff--amazing!

:rolleyes: Where to start.. I guess i'm late on this but: I got there around 430, straight from work didnt feel like going home and come back. The LP Fan Club had to wait a lot longer to get our wrist bands because the lady with our list was running late. Most of the fan club where the once in the pit, me included! :rolleyes:

After our wrist band we had to walk a good one long as block to the location, where we where seperated into wrist band categories... <_< we waited.. :huh: and waited... and WAITED :angry: ! until around 930pm where they started to assign where we would be standing. The PIT was the last group to be escorted.

It was cooled, we where all hungry and getting antsy!

Once there, around 10pm the camera crew men wanted to get some shots of the fans screaming and showing love for the video..... LP started around 1015-1020, they did there set like there was a fire going on. One song after another, non stop. I guess it was all well rehersed, for the TV show, because I know they usually talk befor esome songs and get the crowd all excited... Not this time though.

From where I was, It was all good, the crowd was jumping and into the songs..... Towards my right hand side, it looked a little dead.... im guessing because it must have been a dissapointing view. Both Left and Right side of where the crowd was where blocked by the huge speakers. :(

 

Overall though, I had fun with those 6 songs, I took all the pics and some video my cell could take, it ran out of battery though. :( My fiance, although his back started to hurt due to the cold weather, he definately gave LP there props. We have seen Rancid Play, and Hoobastank, he said LP gave a good performance. :) so that was my goal, to have one more person who might become an LP fan....

 

My pics will be posted up on my MySpace and Videos On my youtube account. :D

You know what I did! Dispite of all the waiting and cold, and all some anoying ppl, I did like the show. it was short, I was wanting more, but non the less the band did great!

I have been to other shows from other artist, Spanish Artist, and some perform great others just SUCK live, LP... They ROCK! I especially like there humbleness, where they all took there turns going down the whole stage thanking there fans. That was really nice of them, I have only seen about 3 artist and one band that does that.
