  1. That doesn't make any sense to me considering Metallica and LP are the rock headliners and the rock portion of the event is a Friday and a Saturday.

     

    It makes sense if you know Rock in Rio. I saw at the same day Evanescence, System Of A Down and Guns n' Roses in 2011. Look the linep below from Rock in Rio 2011 here in Brazil and you'll see that's possible. If they can have 3 headliners at the same day here in Brazil, it's gonna be easier to do the same in the USA.

  2. It's not that hard but you definitely have a really hard time with amphitheaters without a car, public transport to those doesn't really exist. Getting a cab back might be a problem with all the after show traffic, and is going to be expensive if you are stuck in traffic. Arenas are usually directly in the major city centers, so that is a plus. Amphitheaters are not in cities, they are in tiny little shitty towns, and not even in walking distance from there.

     

    Yeah, I'm fucked anyway.

    Ahh by the way, LP and Metallica will be playing at the same day at Rock in Rio USA, according to José Norberto Flesch, one of the best journalists in Brazil.

     

    He is the same person who confirmed before the official announcement the concerts in Belo Horizonte, Brasilia and the South American Tour 2012.

  3. No because they will likely play MSG. Wantagh is really hard to get to from NYC.

     

    I won't be able to travel for a Winter Tour, only in May, June or July. That's the problem.
    Really? I saw that I can take the Babylon (I think that's a train) somewhere near Manhattan and then a cab in the Wantagh Avenue. It doesn't look so hard. I know it's far away but it looks so simple.
  4.  

    LP is a huge band, so they aren't going to play small venues or obscure places unless they intentionally want to do so. LP wanted an intimate venue in 2010, so that is why they chose the Best Buy Theater. On a regular tour, Linkin Park is going to play places more like Madison Square Garden because they know they can sell the tickets and bring in way more people. Chester said it best during MTV The Ride. He said when they dropped Meteora, they had to basically start over again, going from selling out huge arenas and stuff to having to play smaller places with less people, which they didn't enjoy as much. Madison Square Garden is a great venue, though, I have only been there once to see LP, but I recommend it to anyone that has the opportunity to go.

     

    I get it. So I will have to prepare my backpack to travel some miles from NYC to another city next year.

  5. but they won't play that on a regular tour, there are other small venues but they won't play them. If they do an arena tour it's MSG, if they do an amphitheatre tour in the summer it will be Wantagh.

     

    I see. Isn't possible a LP concert in NYC in another place?

     

    So probably I will have to go from NYC to another city to see them. That's not good.

    In regards to APFMH: I don't know if it's ONLY Brad. Dmitry asked Mike in Holmdel this year about it and Mike said he knows fans want it but he was "outvoted" on it in the setlists. Chester wants to play it, he loves the song and it's no secret he blows the fuck up on it. Chester even got the song played in Melbourne last year, when it was audibly obviously that the fans wanted ITE over APFMH when it came to that fan vote and Chester said fuck it, let's do APFMH. I love it.

     

    I do know that in August, LP didn't show any interest when making the Carnivores setlists in keeping the rarer Hybrid Theory songs around. By that, I am referring to Forgotten, By Myself, and Pushing Me Away. Runaway was kept because the transition to Wastelands is good and even though Chester doesn't like the song, they seem to be ok with keeping part of it. I guess APFMH falls into this category. I can ASSUME that based on Brad's activity on the actual stage that he does not enjoy playing the heavier songs and he likes the different stuff. A good example of this that I can give you is OSC at San Diego in July. He goes behind the keyboard on the bridge and looks extremely uninterested. Fast forward to Carnivores and he blows UP on Castle Of Dance - dancing around and going wild on stage. He doesn't seem to jam at all on the heavier stuff. So I assume it's Brad there, but it could also be Rob and Phoenix. You can rule out Mike and Chester (and probably Joe since he doesn't do much on APFMH), so half of the band is remaining when it comes to APFMH. So based on the on stage antics, Brad is the most likely candidate to me to vote OUT APFMH in the setlists.

     

    It's no secret that APFMH is a fan favorite. I know everyone loves Papercut and Points so I don't know how popular APFMH is compared to THOSE songs, but I do know the crowd goes wild for APFMH and loves to see it live.

     

    I also agree that surely they get bored playing Numb for the millionth time. Mike this year in an interview (anyone know which one?) or something said that they sometimes make songs in the studio for certain purposes (likely referring to radio play, for a big single to push to radio) that they feel obligated to play live. Aaaaand that's Burn It Down to me, ha. So I bet they're tired of playing that one too. Just drop one of those two and add in APFMH and bam, people are ecstatic.

     

    Ok, Numb is not out of set to be one of the most popular songs but what happened to Crawling in 2012/2013? They won a Grammy for this song, everybody knows the lyric and we still can hear it on the radio. Now they are playing a shortened version and just in some concerts. I think we have something more than what you said.

  7. Ohh no! I don't want an Arena Tour in North America. I planning to travel to US in the middle of the year to see them in NY. They never play in New York City, just in some cities near by. I hope they announce an Asian or Australian Tour for the beginning of the year and then an American Tour for May, June or July.

     

    As far as other rumors go, the Multishow broadcasters for the Belo Horizonte, Brazil webcast mentioned that Linkin Park is rumored to headline Rock In Rio 2015 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil between September 18th and 27th and that they could also perform in Sao Paulo around the same time. A European Tour for next summer (August time frame) is rumored - specifically, a return to Germany. The band's first show in India as well as an Asia and Australia run is expected in mid-to-late 2015.

     

    Multishow belongs to Globo group, one of the partners of Rock in Rio, so I think they have credibility to talk about that. They helped to bring the festival to Brazil in 2011 after 10 years. It's a reliable source.

     

     

     

    I dont see any chance for Lollapalooza if RiR get into the negotiation. Of course they has more power.

     

    Agree. I think that's more believable to see LP playing at Rock in Rio than Lollapalooza. It's more economically attractive and the RIR executives worked with the band in a lot of opportunities in the past (3 in Lisbon and now in US).
    But it's good to say: Lollapalooza and Rock in Rio don't work with contracts of exclusivity, so it's a possibility to see them playing in both festivals. It's hard to believe that this gonna happen but it's not impossible. I bet they will be playing at Rock in Rio and not at Lollapalooza. One thing we an say for sure: The band was consulted by both and we have 90% of chances to see them in the stage of one of those festivals.
  8. AWASOME CONCERT! AMAZING NIGHT!!!

    But I'm I really disappointed with the festival. During the LP set, someone in the middle of the crowd used pepper spray for unknown reasons. A lot of people got out of the show and passed out. The band should have stop the show but they didn't.

    Brazil fans deserve something better then last night.
    This short tour should give fans some fresh stuff after boring Carnivores Tour.
    But like we all can see after last night, LP don't want to suprise us

    I hope that's Brad is, someone got any news about him ?

     

    It was much better than Saturday. You can trust me.

     

     

    Just enjoy the show, forget about instagram im happy for you dude!

     

    Thanks, man! It was amazing. The time that I will be happy for you is coming. LP will be back to you country very soon, man. You can trust me! :)

  9. I was in the concert last night and I thought I would never say that but I missed Brad. Benjamin was ok... I don't know. It was not the same. One thing I can say for sure: he was much better than Saturday in Belo Horizonte.


    I know that's not the correct place to say that I'm really disappointed with the festival. During the LP set, someone in the middle of the crowd used pepper spray for unknown reasons. A lot of people got out of the show and passed out. The band should have stop the show but they didn't.

  10. Hola app on Chrome works for me here: http://multishow.globo.com/circuitobancodobrasil/cobertura/

    Great quality.

     

    I'm surprised you can get such a good spot near the stage right now during the P!ATD set. I see people walking up no problem near the left side like 10 rows back. Wow. I guess that's because this isn't Rio or Sao Paulo with the insanely huge crowds.

     

    P!ATD set is pretty good. I'm a fan.

     

    Edit: I moved all the posts from today in the broadcast thread to this thread so we don't have 2 threads discussing the same thing.

     

    That's why!

    You'll see tomorrow, It's gonna be emptier than today! :unsure:
