  1. I wish no ill will on any of the band members, but if there's a disposable, nameless/faceless/useless member, it's definitely Phoenix. Besides "Given Up", he's pretty non-existent, at least off the top of my head.
  2. I would think the exact opposite. Without time to butcher the recording with overdubs, cuts, and the most jarring crowd mixing ever, it should be GREAT! After listening to a years worth of DSP's, it was refreshing and great to hear LP's live show before Pooch could fuck it all up. No offense to him if he's doing what he's told, but I highly doubt Mike Shinoda called him up and said, "Hey, can you jack the audience noise up 5000% then completely mute it randomly? Thanks!" End of rant and / or I hope the US iTunes store sells the Adele cover soon.
  3. I NEED IT. UK, help Being a lowly American (ever heard of us?) I routinely get screwed out of international exclusives. I think I should move. I'll gladly trade the live show for bonus tracks.
  4. Great to hear a higher quality (and uncensored) rip is on the way. I only want "Rolling in the Deep" but the whole show is a keeper, if only because it's yet another gig that will be better than Madrid when I burn it to DVD :-p
  5. LP are dropping the ball bigtime if they don't find a way to release the Adele cover. I see past iTunes Festival performances have been released on iTunes, so considering that and LP's DSP mentality plus their apparent great standing with iTunes, I hope we see an official release at some point.
  6. Well, you're my new hero, then. Thanks for the link!
  7. http://soundcloud.com/sublimeric-1/lp-roll...-the-deep-live# Boring show with an almost identical setlist to what I saw in Boston in February...with the exception of Chester blowing my @#$%^ mind with the Adele cover. I saved the audio and put it on SoundCloud via the link above for the time being, until (hopefully) a video surfaces. Amazing cover!
  8. Rollin' in the Deep would be great, but I think it'll be a collaboration or old song (Papercut, most likely. This is LP we're talking about).
  9. I prefer the original but don't really care for either version. My biggest issue with the Iridescent remix is that it's not a *GOOD* remix. It sounds like something you could make in 20 minutes with a free audio editor. On the bright side, it's cool that they performed it on TV, so we at least have it. I would have preferred that they do the intro piano chords, then go directly into "QWERTY", but that's just me. :-p
  10. I *HATE* the way the crowd noise has been mixed, at least for the ATS North American tour. The crowd is either super loud for 5 seconds (then abruptly "faded" out) or non-existent. For some bands this wouldn't be an issue but LP have such a sing-a-long aspect to their shows that the mixing is a big black eye on the DSP's.
  11. I bought ATS+ when it came out and feel the same way as everyone else: Ok show, would be better on Bluray, the MP3's sound excellent (but definitely post-produced quite a bit) and I wish they used the NYC show instead. I definitely expect another album before we get a new live DVD, too.
  12. I'm cool with Joe sampling beats and sound effects but definitely agree on the anti-lip syncing stance. LP have been this way forever, though, citing "perfectionism" when it really just sounds overproduced and fake most of the time.
  13. For the most part, I love it, but it could use 3 key improvements next time: 1) Chester needs to work on or find a way around the high notes, or change the chorus to "Warbling In the Deep" 2) Mike needs to provide some falsetto backing vocals ("Rolling in the deep!") 3) Our German LPU friends should YouTube "Clapping Synchronization" Seriously, though, awesome that they did something like this, and Chester nailed it for the most part. I was hoping he would incorporate some of the scream/singing that he does in "The Messenger", but this is overall great and reminds me of when Mike covered "Umbrella" a few years ago.
  14. No kidding. I voted for songs I've never seen, or at least haven't been released on a DVD
  15. My submission. It's interpretive like all of the other ATS artwork. Not a fan of the remix, or even the original song really, but I feel like this really just...WORKS!
  16. I don't blame LP for the half-assed set last night. If I had to play after the Foo Fighters I'd do the same thing. LP kind of got screwed in that regard, but also didn't rise to the occasion. Linkin Park are good for about one tour for every album. The "same old shit" factor kicks in quickly, especially as a hardcore fan that knows they are extremely unlikely to play what we want. Cancel any future shows and get back in the studio guys!
  17. Yeah, I noticed this for the first time while watching the North American Tour videos, when it said "Boston" and was showing Florida footage :-/
  18. I thought the MLK issue was with U.S. releases only? Isn't ATS+ supposedly just an international release? I don't miss it either way. The show sounds amazing. "The Messenger" blew me away!
  19. Just got my copy today! Glad to have Madrid on an official DVD, with the audio levels mixed properly. The MP3's are 192kbps and a nice bonus, too. Only complaint is the grayscale/washed out look of the album artwork/book, but I already own the deluxe edition so no big deal. The "Robot Boy" instrumental/remix during the DVD credits is sweet, too
  20. ANY version of this song fails to fit in with an action movie. Still stumped as to why they chose it.
  21. So it's region-free? I've purchased other imported DVDs and had to rip them to my PC and re-burn them as region 1 NTSC for it to work in certain DVD players and my PS3. They were Region-2.
  22. Geki: the DVD will work with your computer, most likely, since you can easily switch regions on a PC at least a few times. Regular DVD players, PS3, etc, might be out of luck.
  23. I'm in the US but just got a copy on eBay for $20 shipped. Hopefully the DVD will work in my PS3! Really, really cool of them to include the MP3's of the show. I bought the EP on iTunes but it'll be much better to have the pro mix of the entire Madrid gig.
  24. I wish Boston was featured more, or at least had accurate footage. When they cut to the crowd shot, you can clearly see it's from the Sunrise show.
  25. Get a clue kids. Just because "Hahn" in the title doesn't make it a Joe diss track, and Lethal has been nothing but complimentary towards LP on his Twitter account. There's no feud.
