If indeed LP plans to play other shows around that time that includes festivals then it’s the same procedure they used on the first US leg. Those shows weren’t 360 as well cause they played big festivals that more or less required LP to bring out their stadium set up. The stadium set up can be sized down for arenas (basically cut the wings and the length of the catwalk and you are fine). It’s pure for logistic reasons.

Just low demand and small markets. I remember LP playing in that arena in 2015 (end stage setup) and closed the upper section as well and played a smaller capacity configuration. There are just some areas that aren’t big on LP or rock/metal in general. And perhaps a small part is people not liking the new era and Emily as the new vocalist. The US/Canada is pretty heterogeneous. In the east/noth east, they probably could have played one baseball stadium show in Boston, New York and Montreal while they have trouble filling an arena in the mid west. Let’s see what happens in Australia. Curious tinder whether they sell those out immediately or not. I expect 2nd nights.

Joe is constantly posting pictures in his instagram stories with LP music and not just the instrumentals. When there are pictures with Sam playing OSC, he puts the bridge in the story with Chesters vocals. Lol

What about this then? I guess that’s a bit different here but they only chose snippets with Mike, Joe and Dave in it and some wide shots where you can’t see any of them. They had no other footage back then for obvious reasons. But I agree, it’s not the most intelligent move to do that. Other Tv channels etc. had better promotion videos.

If you refer to the mess US show in the middle of the tour then it the following: The shows from Nashville to Kansas City aren't selling very well. Some of these are really small markets, and demand doesn't seem to be that high. It's a bit messy, mainly because the upper tiers of some arenas (Nashville, Omaha, Kansas City) are no longer available for sale. Not because they're sold out, but because they're reducing the capacity. Nashville won't be a 360° show e.g. They've reduced the size of the arena there so that it has a classic end-stage setup. The capacity is shrinking to about 9-10k+ instead of the original 15-20k+. But it must be said that this only affects these shows (Nashville, St. Louis, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Omaha, Kansas City). The first show in Boston wasn't sold out until 48 hours before the show started. In the end, however, it was very well attended. Overall, the US tour will also be a success for the band even if other markets (Europe, South America, Asia, basically the rest of the world) are performing at an even higher level.

Yep probably due to the lack of additional cameras in the stadium. They have cameras on these tower in the middle of the pit who focus on the band members on stage and then they have camers at the front of the stage. One even on rails that basically goes from left to right. That's probably the camera that gets those pit shots.

I always thought that the studio version of their live show intro with the mix of Mike's ITE rapping and TEM singing creats a great atmosphere.

Canada really delivered and seem to be on a similar path like Europe in terms of being a bigger market than before. A double arena show in Montreal and all the other Canada shows almost sold out immediately. As I wrote in another thread that arena shows fit them better but I can see them playing a one off stadium show in Canada or in the East/Noth East of the US since those markets seem to be pretty big for LP.

Based on the comments from brasilian fans, they rather had another double date in the Allianz Parque than in Morubis stadium due to better sound. Rock/metal overall is pretty bigh in latin/south america. Even Limp Bizkit announced stadium shows (in whatever configuration they play is another question) in Brasil e.g.

I'm not naive when it comes their venue choices in Europe. They are amongst the biggest band here on this continent. There is no doubt that from western to central europe, LP fills large stadiums (France all the way to Poland or Czech Republic, if they were to play headlining shows there instead of festivals). Even the double headliner in Spain comes as a surprise. Counting both shows together, they could have gone for a mediums size stadium there I guess. Them going for a stadium show in sweden is a bold move as well, even if it is a move to combine the nordic countries together in one show. If you look the way the US shows sell the last couple of weeks, there is a bit of a movement there. Shows from Brookly all the way to Pittburgh were/will all about 95-100% sold/sell out. Couple of smaller markets taking a bit but even the US tour will be a success in the end.

She sounds amazing on KTTK, sadly they didn't play it in all 3 shows I went to.

Do we know why he got kicked out of the show? Edit:

Wished we would get arena shows in Europe as well. Everything is closer to the stage etc.

Those lasers in the corners weren't there when they played those 360 shows last years right? Looks like they transfered some of the new stadium production to their arena shows.

It's interesting to see how different the approach by different bands is when it comes to touring members. Deftones do not have a bass player in their line up and have Fred Sablan as their touring member. Yet they put him in phot shoots and he is in the badn picture on Spotify e.g. Not the same situation in LP as Brad is still in the band but it's interesting to see different approaches. Yet, I would say the way LP handle that, they handle it perfectly.

Lol

Great quality. I always thought that this stage setup with all the different layers was one of their best looking one.

Nothing better than that synths during the verses that sounded like a maschine gun due to the higher BPM lol

There is basically no difference between that approach in 2014 and the way they perform it in 2025.

still 2:40h till he show starts, rip!

It's especially a big brain time move when you debut a new song in that screening. You never know how the debut of a song goes. And in the case of Two Faced it didn't goo as good as it could be. Alex messed up the octaves in the first pre-chorus.

She came close to it several times but it looks like this is the first time she really went all the way!

wtf that sounds horrible. I went to all LP concerts (Hamburg, Berlin, Düsseldorf) alone and didn't experience something like this. I've even seen a lot of people who went alone to see LP.
