I love the X-games! Good combo!

Special Guest aye? LP/ Muse = Jean creaming time, but not happening.

 

Too bad you have to win tickets. That's why I hate KROQ contest because they don't really yield winners who represent the fan base if I can say that w/o sounding snooty. Still going to spam said contests...

Maybe the LPU will give out tickets. Usually the LPU is good about doing that. I'd imagine they'd give tickets to this and the Mexico show. Maybe even Kimmel too.

Sounds cool. Seems like these are the kind of gigs LP would've done back during the 2000-2001 era. Nice to see them getting back to these sort of things.

Might actually watch the show just for this.

This doesn't seem to be a part of the actual X Games.

Does that make this the first post-album release show?

Jimmy Kimmel.

 

Hopefully they do an LA CD release show too on the 26th. Don't see why they wouldn't.

Congrats! Seems like it was super hard to get tickets over the LPU. A report from you would be appreciated!
