One thing that’s never been clear to me is what Brad actually doesn’t like about touring. Is it the performance itself or the logistics? I understand if he doesn’t want to play with the band at every show, but I was expecting a few special appearances. Couldn’t he have played at the comeback show, the São Paulo show for the documentary, and the Champions League? If he didn’t show up for those three, I think it’s almost impossible that he’ll ever perform with the band again. I hope I’m wrong.

Right now, I’d be really surprised if a song from OML gets played this year or anytime soon. It seems like the band doesn’t really care much for that album, maybe for commercial or emotional reasons. Anyone hoping to hear something from OML will probably have to settle for the occasional performance of Friendly Fire, even though it was originally released on Papercuts.

According to the post, the fans who were already inside the stadium because of the LPU Early Entry were allowed to buy merch.

Since the band is already performing again, the reason for the cancellation doesn’t really matter if they reschedule the show for next year. I just feel bad for the fans who traveled to the concert and had expenses like hotel and transportation that won’t be refunded. I can imagine how frustrated I would be if they cancel the Vancouver or Seattle show after everything I’ve already spent. Another thing I keep thinking about: whoever managed to buy the exclusive shirt from the Bern show is holding a real treasure.

The apron and the white shirt look really nice. I'm just wondering what exactly happens at these events. Is it just a get-together?

It's really amazing how the German market stands out as the most economically important one for Linkin Park compared to the rest of the world. No other country comes close to Germany in that way, maybe only the United States (but it doesn't seem to offer the same level of popularity). Since the beginning, the band has always given special attention to Germany and has always gotten great responses. The shows this year, especially the one in Berlin, are a clear example of that! I saw some people saying they're going to the show, so make the most of it! I can't wait for the North American Tour to return in the second half of the year so I can enjoy it again!

The beginning of a really interesting tour! Although I’m not expecting major surprises at the festival shows, I’m curious to see what’s new for the stadium concerts. I’m really looking forward to the shows at Wembley and the Stade de France. Finally, I believe the chances of there being a livestream for any of these European festivals are pretty low, right?

We can probably expect a livestream! That’s the most exciting part, especially considering we most likely won’t have one in 2025.

In this video, you can see how Mike has evolved as a vocalist over the years. We had already noticed that, but it really stood out to me in this episode.

I know your comment was directed at me, but I didn't say it's generic compared to the album. I think it's a completely generic song in general and that it will be forgotten soon

In my opinion, Let You Fade is the worst song on From Zero, maybe tied with Stained. I found it a bit generic. The only part I liked was one of Mike's offbeat verses because it felt different, but overall, the song sounds unfinished and seems like it was rushed just to sell another version of From Zero.

People might think that if they like the song for reasons other than how heavy it is. I think Stained is the weakest on the album ’cause there’s just way too many vocal effects.

I bought Mike and Emily but it's ridiculous to pay 30 dollars for shipping to Canada.

To me, this only happens for legal reasons. It doesn't make sense for them to 'forget' Chester throughout the entire tour. I could be wrong, but I think the only time any member mentioned Chester's name during the shows was when Mike did at the first concert.

To me, the problem isn’t that it’s ugly. The problem is that it doesn’t resemble any design the band has ever used for their products.

Curious to know if the events like the pop-up stores and free food will continue throughout the entire North American tour.

Lenny Kravitz's show last year lasted only six minutes and included just three songs. We should expect something very similar for Linkin Park. They’ll probably play for a maximum of ten minutes and perform three songs. In my opinion, they’re likely to play The Emptiness Machine and Numb, as the first is their current hit and the second is the biggest hit of their career, besides being the one promoted by UEFA. If there’s time for one more, it’ll probably be In The End.

I agree 100%. I’ve personally gotten into several arguments for criticizing the band over a release I didn’t like. Every fan has the right to dislike something and to criticize it always with respect. As for taking fans’ opinions into account during the creative process, that’s what sets apart true artists from hitmakers. Linkin Park practically never cared about what we thought and always followed their own sound. Still, here we are, years later, still talking about them (some of us have been listening since the Hybrid Theory or Meteora days). As for CTB, I really like the song and I think it had the potential to replace BIO as the last song in the setlist. Ending the set with BIO is something I just can’t take anymore! The only problem with CTB is that it’s not as relevant within the discography as BIO is, so it’s hard to imagine it being considered as a show closer.

Same here

It's cool that in this episode you can clearly see how it all started with Mike, Phoenix, and Joe, and then how the others gradually got more involved with the project.

Lies Greed Misery is definitely one of the songs I would most like to see return to the setlist.

I think it’s not very clear what this remix is, but I believe it must be an instrumental version that will be used commercially during the Champions League and might include some parts of the instrumental from Numb. A more traditional remix (with vocals, for example) wouldn’t make sense because it would either have to use Chester’s voice or re-record vocals with Emily and both options are terrible. Exactly! Perfect observation!

I want to know what this track is. Will it just be an instrumental? We have the audio from the video, but what will the full version be like? As for the performance, this is huge. It's the biggest performance in the band's history. I also want to know if Brad will be there. But he is not in the promo, so I think he won’t.

It's very unlikely that Burn It Down will be dropped from the setlist. It's Linkin Park's biggest single since Minutes to Midnight (disregarding From Zero).

I can tell you one: when people said that Amy Lee would be the new lead singer of Linkin Park. Someone probably heard 'Amy Lee' when the information was actually about Emily. 🤣
