Not trying to revive an old thread, but thank you for this. Listening now. Good quality and this may be one of the only HQ shows we get in 2014 since they are no longer doing DSP's.

I was judging by the fact that Mansfield/Boston wasn't included on the MTM Winter Arena Tour. Neither were Hartford or Wantagh, though, so I guess my logic is a bit off. But yeah, two NY dates would be cool, but there is no way I'm driving to Buffalo. Such a long drive for me.

If the touring schedule looked something like that, I'd probably hit up Mansfield, Hartford and Wantagh. Never been to Wantagh and I have always wanted to go, I just never get tickets for it every time LP comes there. I think Mansfield might not be part of a B cities tour, though.

So I am assuming they are going to be releasing a tour this week, maybe even before the single announcement or the album title, with 30STM. Yes.

If they do a B city tour, I probably will only be able to go to 2 shows instead of my usual 3, because it means going farther away from bigger cities like Boston and NYC. Oh well. It will still be epic.

I liked all of their 4 album titles up until the 5th one, LIVING THINGS. The Hunting Party sounds better than LIVING THINGS, IMO, but it's not as good as the first 4 albums titles.

Yes!!! This sounds so heavy! I am so excited right now. I can't wait... June 2014 seems like a good time to release the album, June is almost the perfect time. As far as ''The Hunting Party'' goes for a title, it's meh, but it's not terrible IMO.

A B city tour might not be all that bad.

I think it's time that LP doesn't collaborate with any artist and just release their music.

At this point, I am only going to trust and/or believe members of the actual band or an official statement on their website, etc. But rumors ARE fun to discuss. Just in the back of my mind, I will only really trust members of the band or their management.

I don't think they will just debut the single right away, though, I could be wrong. I think they will announce a date that the single will hit radio/etc. like they did with BID.

No idea.

Bullshit from Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park? It's not like this is some random guy on the radio saying stuff. Like I said, something big will get announced. Not everything at once, obviously. I guess ''big announcement'' could be very different things to different people, though. For example, I get really excited over album title announcements and single announcements, etc

What do you mean ''hint''? He flat out says ''this week is going to be an action packed week. Stay tuned''. HUGE news. So excited. I bet something big will get announced. Album title, single title, tour dates, etc. Huge news.

Is this pic from MTM sessions or current?? His gauges look different too

30STM's new album actually isn't all that bad. Listening to it now. If they do end up touring with LP, I might buy their new album. I don't like any of their past albums before this one, but this new one has some good songs, actually.

I've never seen 30STM live, so I have no idea what it's like. I never really cared enough to look them up live on YouTube or anything. But yeah, I guess you are right. I do like when singers let the crowd sing with them because it feels awesome to be part of it, but not the entire song, etc. However, I do disagree with you about one thing. I would rather see 30STM live over seeing Britney Spears.

I would rather see LP touring with 30STM instead of bands like Imagine Dragons, Mumford and Sons or Fun. Also, I don't hate when singers let the crowd sing a long. Most people here seem to hate that, which is maybe why there is so much hate on 30STM here. Like I said, I'm not a fan of 30STM by any means, but there are definitely worse bands out there that they could pick.

I thought just ALTNC and Recharged was enough, but who knows, maybe this song will be good.

You guys. Remember that these are just RUMORS. Coming from me, that says a lot. Lol. The guy didn't even mention 30STM (even though Jared Leto DID just do something with the Oscars, I think). Besides, I think this DJ in just making stuff up. I will wait and see official announcements from LP or announcements from more credible sources. If they were to tour with 30STM, it wouldn't be THAT bad. I'm not a fan of 30STM really, but there are definitely worse bands out there that they could pick to tour with. 30STM is booked up with a European tour until mid or late July as it is, but I assume the US tour would be in August anyways. Nonetheless, rumors and hype before LP releases are always a fun part of the album cycle.

This question has been bugging me. I went to the SSMF and AWOLNATION, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Finch and Street Drum Corps all played before LP on the stage LP played at. Did LP pick these bands, or did the festival just schedule it that way? Does LP have a say?

LOL Neil Young is apparently the most popular band in my state. I guess it could be true, because I know a lot of people that live here that DO love Neil Young. As for Arizona, that's awesome. It might be because of the Chester connection, who knows.

I purchased Meteora the day it came out as well, I don't remember if it leaked or not. I was only 12 at the time and I wasn't very active online or anything like that back then. I got it at FYE, I still remember the day. Getting home and putting it in my CD player was so awesome.. I downloaded every leak since Meteora but I always buy the CD on the release date, it's fun to go out and buy it, IMO. For this album, I might give in to the leak (if there is one) but I will definitely go and buy it the day it comes out.

Imagine if nothing ever leaked. Imagine if we had to wait until the actual day of the single release, or the actual day of the album release. It would be so much more fun, but sadly, that will never happen in my lifetime. I know we can ''choose'' to do so, but it just isn't the same when you know it's leaked and everyone is talking about it and downloading it. I always buy the album regardless, but I will admit that I give in and listen to the leaks.

For the past two LP albums, the single comes out and about two months later the album comes out. So if the single DOES drop next week, I'd say that the album will come out in May. If the single comes out in April, I'd say the album comes out in June. EDIT: I was wrong. Just realized the only single to be released with a gap longer than about a month is BURN IT DOWN.
