BlackChester Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 @Tomer they're talking about LP .. last time they were at Rock am Ring was 2007... I'd know if they were there 2009 Quote
[AndOne] Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Sometimes I wonder why what we have the live guide for Quote
Tomer Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 LP last played there in 2007. Metallica played there in 2008, so it must be LP they're referering to @Tomer they're talking about LP .. last time they were at Rock am Ring was 2007... I'd know if they were there 2009 Sometimes I wonder why what we have the live guide for my bad mixed it up with another date i should have checked the liveguide before sorry Quote
Op4blushift Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 i wonder if LP will debut new material at the concert if the album hasn't released by then. Quote
LPU90 Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I Hope, they play QWERTY in Japan 2006, before the song was released so they could play at least the first single that I think it'll be released before the album; I this case I wonder about the dsp; They'll release before the album or not? Quote
DecanoLP Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I would love to go, but the tickets are expensive as fuck although the line up this year is pretty awesome. There are a lot of bands I'd like to see (again)... Hm Quote
hahninator Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Great, glad they're playing these festivals again. Some of their best shows come from Rock am Ring. Plus it's Germany, who loves LP, so it's sure to be awesome. As always it will be interesting to see what other shows they play in Europe, and hopefully we get DSPs. PLUS Metallica is performing the Black Album in full, sooooo damn. I'm jealous. Quote
sckofelng Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 true words jonas. mark get your ass here! Quote
1996_LP Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 wow thats a pretty epic lineup! SOUNDGARDEN! TENNACIOUS D! I hope this means they'll be going to the Download festival aswell! Quote
hahninator Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 They played Download Festival last year, I doubt they'll do the same festivals two years in a row. What's a fest they haven't done in a while? Pinkpop? and I bet another Portugal show. Quote
problemdog Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Finally! I've been waiting for 5 years. Quote
frank Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) Yeah last time they played pinkpop(and the only time) was in 2007. And pinkpop only has 2 names confirmed so far, Bruce Springsteen and Soundgarden, so they are a possibilty. Altough they did play Rock Werchter last year.. and 2 shows in the BeNeLux(Belguim, Netherlands, Luxemburg) in 2 summers isnt normal for linkin park haha Edited December 19, 2011 by frank Quote
Legend Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I don't think we'll have a new album by then, but definatly some new songs will be played. Quote
Exzero Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 When the management from rock am ring announce a new album, then I'm sure it comes. The Promotion have to come from LP and to play on this festival make really sure that they have new album in the summer. So I fucking amazed, Metallica and Linkin Park at one festival that's great. I will buy my ticket next month. I don't have to miss that. Quote

The Promotion have to come from LP and to play on this festival make really sure that they have new album in the summer. So I fucking amazed, Metallica and Linkin Park at one festival that's great. I will buy my ticket next month. I don't have to miss that. Because a third party like the Rock Am Ring promoters totally have control over when Linkin Park releases an album. Not like the band, producer, record label, etc. have any input on that or anything... Quote
