There will be more, guys. It was a lot of work to bring Colin there, set up his drums and such. Obviously there will be more. You can even see in Drumeo's insta that Colin CHANGED SHIRTS at least 3 times to record different videos. https://www.instagram.com/p/DSQXWZwklL8/?img_index=4

Not necessarily. I think today it's only going to be The Emptiness Machine playthrough and breakdown. Then with time more videos will come, more LP songs, some interviews, and some challenges (like playing another band's song hearing it for the first time)

I got bamboozled with that when they revealed the world tour on their comeback last year and they had Sleep Token and Bad Omens on the poster. Took me a lot to see the "*".

I always saw LP as a very bureaucratic band. Not having fun on the stage, not talking much with the public. Just very professional and solid. LP 2.0 is waaaay more fun, loose, organic, spontaneous.

Mostly events in Brazil happen in Sao Paulo or Rio, it's rare to see mainstream artists going to other places. Many people will travel 1.000 miles or more inside Brazil to see LP in these concerts right now. I hope they sell out or at least close to it today, cause if they don't i don't know if they will come back again to southern cities like Curitiba or Porto Alegre (they went there in 2012). Last year they announced a Porto Alegre show for this 2025 leg and it was supposed to be in a BIG stadium. 50k+ capacity. And it was cancelled a few months ago. The 2012 Curitiba concert had already tickets sold and they changed venues due to low demand, most people that would watch the Curitiba one decided to go to Porto Alegre. And the Porto Alegre venue had already been reduced from a 25.000 capacity to 15.000 capacity, also due to low demand. Curitiba is one of the best Brazilian cities. Well developed, feels like a European city, very cultural and artistic, low crime rates (way lower than Rio/SP)

And here i am losing my mind having to plan a birthday party for 15 people.

Meaning a sequel to QWERTY.

Oh nice, really want to hear his opinion on how AI will affect the music industry.

At the day when From Zero 20th arrives, we will know.

oh, yeah, makes sense. Forgot about the intro hahahah

Album was supposed to be 10 songs. I guess they felt something missing and created IGYEIH last minute.

The band just posted a nice short backstage video on instagram. The feeling of that week is something i won't feel ever again, the hype on the day is unmatched, waiting for the stream and all of that. When Em started to sing i instantly thought: Yeah, she is and feels Linkin Park. This is Linkin Park. Even though Emptiness Machine didn't felt special at first, it didn't catch me instantly. I loved all of it, didn't even notice at the time the voice cracks or stuff like that, didn't mind at all. It was an emocional experience, not a technical one. So many people messaging me that usually didn't, old friends and such, cause i am know by them as the "linkin park guy". One of the greatest emotions/feelings of my life. And i tried to be rational about it, is it right to feel so much for a band? But i can't help myself, it's a part of who i am.

Yes, it's all on LinkinPedia's WYD page.

There was also a nice and fun interview with Mike and Emily uploaded yesterday.

these dates are so spaced out, why? 11 days for 3 concerts.

is there a real reason why many many artists don't consider Australia when going on a World Tour?

Dman, i loved her in the first livestream. Even with all the slips and cracks, i felt every emotion, i really felt like she IS linkin park in the first 5 minutes listening the stream. So sad for people judgning only by pitch perfection or things like that. Music is much more about emotions.

Emily did the full 16second scream on HITC! First time? Even in the proshot LP posted months ago it was cut short at 13s

That's very odd. Usually people are so friendly and you can even make a lot of friends right there, talk to people, have a good time together with strangers.

Yep, the OML cycle was probably too emotional and disturbed to the band. Seems like 2016 was an awful year for Chester right when the album was being produced. Probably too many memories attached to those songs.

Weirdest thing is they just not replacing, as they did many times, if the one sick is Joe/Colin/Alex/Phoenix. Their technicians usually know how to play the whole set too.

No Colin and Joe in this one. Who is the one in the back at 0:34?

Mike is very very very hypocritical in his sayings against pop music.

I guess the backstage was a bit too serious, not having enough funny moments. Looking back to those concerts you kinda feel the band taking it all too professionally, focused "on the job" itself. Maybe it was the overall reception of the album, the intense criticism, Chester answering back and switching between "fuck you come fight me" and "we have to love each other" moments.
