hahninator Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 As many of you already know, one of my favorite times of year is the summer, where we get quite a few webcasts from festival shows in Europe. Nothing is like getting out of school and then a week later starting this massive month-long barrage of festival shows you can sit back and watch in the comfort of your own home. Rock am Ring, Pinkpop, Download Festival, and Rock in Rio are just some of the ones that fans are able to check out. Well, there is one more. Except this one is in the Winter. Oh yes, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas 2008 webcast. The show that Linkin Park has played five times before (twice in 2001, remember?) is back again and is featuring a great lineup. Although yours truly, LP, is out writing the record, they can be almost guaranteed to play the show next year. The two day KROQ show begins today. All times are PST (Pacific Standard Time). Thoughts on the lineup this year? Is night 1 better than night 2? For all webcast information, head on over to http://www.kroq.com/. Thanks!
linkinpark-64 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Hey guys... I have a BAD new for you... I just saw the advert on Virgin17 and... TOnight it's Live in Texas... But I'll record the document
Jack Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Wow, holy shit.. Mark, or someone else on staff should make another post regarding this
linkinpark-64 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 If you wanna have information about the day LP tell me. Cause today it's week end Linkin Park on this channel
gtrnowak4tkd Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Ok ill try to record them. When its Pacific Time you subtract two hours or add? It'll only be Three Days Grace, Rise Against, and Staind if i have time. Most Likely on THree Days Grace and Rise Against. Edited December 13, 2008 by gtrnowak4tkd
chazmike Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 First night's line up is way better in my opinion. However, I won't be home to watch it.
lp0827 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 night 1 owns night 2 i'm in the LA area and listen to kroq regularly... i don't know about radio station concerts for you guys, but all kroq shows sell out within 10 minutes of the first ticket. it's crazy stuff...
lp0827 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 by the way, lp kind of butchered their headline spot on acoustic christmas last year. this was the show where mike whipped out the hello kitty guitar, chester missed a few lines, and (not their fault) the sound engineer had some problems and the set was delayed for like 20 minutes they definitely made up for it with the arena tour and pr, but i'm just saying..
sublimeric Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Night one is definitely superior, in my opinion. I hope somebody rips the STP set, too. It would be pretty badass if Chester showed up to do "Wonderful" with STP tonight or even with just Weiland on Sunday!

No, not really. Mike pulled out the Hello Kitty guitar on FTI at the KROQ Weenie Roast y Fiesta, not AAC. AAC featured the UCLA drum line on NMS and BIO, as well as a childrens' choir on HHH, and the first time they did My December the entire cycle. LP didn't butcher it. The KROQ webcasts always are really shitty quality. In person, they owned. Watch the YouTube videos and read the reviews. It was all fine. Pooch mixed them normally. The webcast sucked ass so people think incorrect things about the show, but whatever. He has nothing to do with the webcast. LP's set wasn't delayed at KROQ last year as far as I know either. Chester did mess up just a tad, but I mean who's perfect? AAC last year was one of the best shows for LP in 2007-2008 no doubt. I wish we had a DSP for it......
Revolution1985 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 can anyone record the whole show? i have a family christmas party to attend and i am going to try and sneak away to catch some of it but would love to see the whole thing

lp12311 Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Night 1 is 100000000000000000 times better. No contest!
ChuckCheese Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 (edited) I'm sorry, but this Hollywood Undead group is terrible.....I'm watching for Three Days Grace, Staind and Rise Against. Edited December 14, 2008 by ProjektCharlotte

hahninator Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 good setlist from them so far. Animal I Have Become Pain I Hate Everything About You Never Too Late Riot Hmm. Wonder what the last few are. sounding pretty sweet.
hahninator Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 holy crap a short setlist. Home now.
Revolution1985 Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 i gotta get some sleep, i have been up for like 40 hours...can someone please please record from AFI till the end
ChuckCheese Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Damn, Three Days Grace tore that shit up. Staind sounds awesome so far.
hahninator Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 sure rev. aaron's voice is 110% tonight. staind is mixed excellently. very impressive so far, best band of the night. aaron man, damn.
Conjure Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 TDG and Staind were awesome but Rise Against stole the show for me.. Anyone get a rip of any of them?
