Haha yes, I love MTM, there must be some more awesome demos from that time period.

I'd beg to say 2006, even, not 2007. Lol.

I will attend this to ask if LP will play something special for the Sunset Strip show.

Hmm.

I thought we already got the music for the game, those 7 'tracks' from a few months back? I wasn't aware LP was releasing an official soundtrack for a Facebook app.

Well I just thought you meant any demo that had vocals that weren't completed words. My bad. I thought Fear and Drum Song were cool, but I wish we got the version of Fear that we saw on the making of MTM with Mike singing complete verses, and the version of Drum Song we saw in LPTV with Mike singing the chorus. I actually kind of agree with you now that I remembered those. I think it is better to have LP release demos without the gibberish because it can distract from the song.

Oh so basically you think Fear and Drum Song from LPU9 are shitty? A lot of people liked those demos. And don't forget the Blackout episode of LPTV with the gibberish vocals, which were awesome.

Obviously LP isn't going to put tons of complete demos on every LPU CD, they have to space them out to keep the trend going. And yes, they do have a lot of instrumental demos, but they also have a lot of demos with vocals too, it's common sense. We also DIDN'T see that with MTM, if you actually watch the making of DVD, the band says that Rick encouraged them to write scat vocals on a seed right away before they did musical work to it, to see if it was worth developing. You can see all the gibberish vocals on the making of MTM as well. Hybrid Theory and Meteora was when the band didn't put vocals on stuff until it was almost finished, but starting with MTM they have done the opposite of that. I don't get why we have discussion threads on this site then. If I can't debate why I don't agree with something someone says or agree with something someone says, what is the point of a forum? You have your point of view and I have mine. Obviously neither of us are right or wrong, because ultimately LP will decide what they are doing with their demos, not any of the fans, LP always says they never listen to fan's input on stuff and will do whatever they want to as a band. The only point I am making here is that they DO have a lot of demos in the vault ever since they were a band, and they do have demos with vocals on them, as well as a lot of demos with completed music and vocals.

Explode and The Team aren't Xero song titles and it's absurd to think that they are.

How do you know, are you in the band? No one hear knows how many demos and b-sides LP has in the vault except for the members of Linkin Park. If they wanted to do a b-side album, they absolutely could. When I said a 20 track CD, I was over-exaggerating. Maybe a 10 or 12 song CD would be fine.

I don't ever recall Chester saying these songs reflect his entire life. When you compare it to how well FM sold, you have to remember that FM came out in 2005 which was a time when people still somewhat bought records instead of just downloading everything, and it also during a LP hiatus.

Trust me, they have more than enough to do this CD, as well as have tons of stuff for LPU in the future. I also wasn't saying for them to put instrumental demos on this CD, I meant fully completed demos like Across The Line, Slip, What We Don't Know, Blue, I Have Not Begun, Pretend To Be, So Far Away, etc. A lot of bands release b-side albums. Granted, we get almost the same thing each year with LPU, but it's a bit different because we don't get fully completed demos. They have a lot of completed songs that never made the album for each cycle. I would want fully completed ATS demos the most.

November 14th, 1997, Xero at the Whisky a Go Go. Also, June 9th, 2000, Linkin Park at the Coconut Teaszer.

We've had tons of Meteora demos too. Being greedy would be me saying for LP to never put ATS or LT demos on LPU albums because we have hardly any ATS demos and no LT demos. Meteora and MTM demos are what we usually get. Also, I was replying to a post earlier in the thread that said we should get some MTM, ATS and LT demos.

The only way this could be cool if is they released a 20 song CD, with 5 fully completed demos from each album. An EP would not work. It would cover each album cycle, and 5 for each or something would be cool.

I understand that, what I'm saying is that didn't that cover band make those titles themselves for the songs? The Team and Explode aren't real Xero demo titles, right?

How about 3 MTM demos, 3 ATS demos, 3 LT demos and 1 Meteora demo with completed vocals? Would be epic as hell.

I was under the impression that all those titles were fanmade, and also, this show was available on YouTube in the past and it was really just a cover band playing those songs live.

This thread is full of fail. Lol.

Pretty cool... hopefully STP will have more songs with Chester by then.

Wow, that description sounds fucking awesome. I am going to go out and buy the book tomorrow. Sounds really cool. I think the movie will be amazing, especially with Hahn directing.

In the Inked Magazine 2008 interview, Chester said this about his ex-wife: ''All my money and half of my publishing up until Minutes To Midnight is hers. There is a lot of anger that goes along with that - like, you did not DO that. All she did was piss me off''. So basically, doesn't that confirm he probably got some rights for Hybrid Theory, possibly even Hybrid Theory EP? Also, what about Chester Chaz publishing?

Bleed It Out (w/ all extenders)

Maybe not, because I don't think STP's music would fit the theme for Mall. LP's music could if done right. It'd have to be pretty dark lyrically. After all, the movie is about someone who shoots up a Mall (I am pretty sure).

Camp Freddy would have been better, but STP is good too.
