Wow! It’s been a DECADE?! It feels like just yesterday to me, I remember when it dropped and I was absolutely blown away. Just listened to the song, it’s still a freaking banger, entire THP album is underrated to be honest. Especially Rob’s drumming, it’s absolutely insane on the album. It sucks that THP is kind of under the radar, people were asking for “heavy” for years and they got it! THP is arguably the heaviest album LP did, and that’s probably why it wasn’t promoted well by the label. I remember Chester saying on Twitter in 2017 that GATS was “too rock for radio”. Also the video they did was a very puzzling decision, a proper music video instead would’ve been much better.

No Catalyst being there is definitely the strangest for me, but they should’ve included a THP song for sure. Even though the album wasn’t commercially successful it still deserves representation, I’m really surprised they didn’t put Final Masquerade or Wastelands on here

I’m interested… especially because they’re reposting the live pictures, they wouldn’t do that for no reason! I’m gonna try & not get my hopes up until they actually start teasing something…

Agreed with everything you said. I’d definitely buy them too. There’s still so much they have yet to be released. Probably from the old days too, I’d love to have one of the shows from the POA video for example, maybe another PR02 show that doesn’t have the Live In Texas style editing. I’m sure they may have a PR03 show, they left Reading off the box set, a Meteora Arena tour one too, MTM definitely has some shows such as Rock Am Ring 07, Europe Summer 08. ATS era, MSG11 full, would be cool to have Brazil 2010 in full video as well. Crazy how there’s nothing from 2013 onwards officially released. I’d love for one of the 2013 shows to be released, the band sounded great. For THP we definitely need Download 2014 in full, it also would be good to have a fixed version of Berlin 2014 or Beijing 2015 without all the text overlayed. A 2017 show would be incredible, especially one of the UK ones.

HOLY SHIT. Hope maybe someone else could potentially have a copy of the full footage you never know… but it’s incredible we get some more footage of this show!

Update Landover 03 source. Sorry for the double post, tried to link the thread here & my phone wouldn’t let me type this underneath

To me, it really feels like a Meteora Reanimation, even if it’s not officially done by the band, you guys did a phenomenal job!

This sounds awesome! Looking forward to this! So, in a certain way we get Meteora remixes after all! Wasn’t there rumors of a cancelled Meteora remix album?

If this is MS & friends I’m 100% on board with this! Would open up a lot for him sound wise, especially because Bonnie crushed Bleed it Out. Not many people can do Chester’s vocals justice but she did. Also, let’s take a moment to appreciate how much Mike Shinoda has improved his vocals & how good he sounds now. Because I did NOT know he could sing like that.

Big time…

Coincidentally I also really like Promises I Can’t Keep. Watching As I Fall is my favorite Shinoda song though, behind it is this one, Over Again, Promises and Hold It Together.

Holy cow that sounds amazing!

Not sure about a download… I’ve talked with him before & he said he doesn’t want to share original files at this time. At least it’s on YouTube…

A Chicago 2001 video was just posted on YouTube! This doesn’t even have a source on the show page! Taper is same as the Elkhorn 2001 barricade.

Wow!!! First live appearance in 4 years… here’s hoping he announces more shows or even a tour soon, I’m still intrigued as to what that “Mike Shinoda & friends” thing is.

Oh yes. This 100% would be amazing, I agree. But I am glad they edited live footage into the Hold It Together video, I quite like it.

I think I remember that the original video (someone could correct me if I’m wrong) was on an HDD that got stolen at the airport, and that’s why we never got it. They probably made a new one, and seeing as we have every video but that one, it would make sense to release it for the anniversary. A new video (even if it’s for a 5 year old song) in my opinion is better than just merch…

Agreed, it’s been since 2019 since he played a show… that’s what 5 years? It’s time. We need a Shinoda performance again!

The live shows in the box set are incredible. My favorite show is Denver, Chester is going insane on every song. Highlights of that show for me are Figure.09, with Chester’s insane roars, ITE when Mike goes into the crowd and fans start pulling his pants down. “I don’t think Mike’s ever been violated like that before” LMAO. Intro of APFMH someone throws a condom on stage & then the bridge where Chester says “Daddy’s on board now”. Philly is awesome too and there’s a moment before Papercut where Mike mentions that fans were cheering when girls took their tops off and he says that “I know we can’t compete with that, but can we get ALMOST as loud as that?” Seoul is epic to have because it’s such a long set, highlights for that show for me is the performance of Nobody’s Listening & My December in the encore. Crowd is going CRAZY. Manila is great too & while lacks some of the highlights of Denver & Philly (in my opinion) is still an incredible show. Overall I’d rank it: 1. Denver 2. Philly 3. Seoul 4. Manila. I’m not disappointed with any of them at all & I am SUPER happy that they not only released them but released them uncut.

Love the song, and it’s incredible we got this AND “TTAMP” (Lost). Both “holy grails” from this era.

I know that even if LP continues with a new singer, (which will admittedly be VERY divisive in the fanbase) I will support them anyway. I support them also if they want to continue as a 5-piece. I’d even support them just releasing vaulted material & calling it quits afterwards. They are in an impossible situation you guys are right because every choice they make is going to have some form of backlash. But I’m confident they’ll figure it out, Phoenix says they’re not done, so. Guess we’ll see? Hoping for something this year, but it’s foolish to put a timetable on it when he says they literally don’t have one.

That is awesome!!!

Thank you! Must’ve missed that.

When did he say that? Did I miss something?

I agree with you. Chester was human just as much as the rest of us. I always found some of the reactions I’ve come across as weird, It’s cringe as you said. Yes, it sucks he’s gone, but at some point you gotta… I don’t want to say get over it, because I’ll be the first to admit I sometimes still get sad over it but it’s more fleeting than actually wallowing in despair. But the way people are making him out to be is not who he was, because honestly nobody is.
