Thanks for posting the videos. My son is very excited to see some of the show from last night. Hopefully next year they come back in this area and we can go when he's 6. Also, Mike giving his hat to the little kid with headphones on last night was so awesome.

What an amazing show. I'm still buzzing. FTI was electric. Overflow live is just a totally different song, really enjoyed that one. APFMH bridge over BIO which is my favorite version (bc of the pink ATS deluxe version). Santa Claus. Papercut to ITE to Faint to close it out, I mean does it get any better than that?

Can't wait for it. See all my fellow NJ people tomorrow night!

Great write up. Hope you guys have a fun week. See you at The Rock on Sunday!

This was fun to watch. Did not expect to watch the whole thing at once, but really like this kind of loose interview.

Mike has said that the music is just better when it's LP, so whatever system they have going for them right now sure as hell works for me. They've released 13 new good songs. Something we all thought had .01% of ever happening.

That's how I feel as well. I mean in this short time of a few dozen shows they've already played what ~50? something different songs. Keep em coming.

Just watched some of that 2015 show and Benjamin Chandler had a nice solo on the WID extended bridge (which I miss so much btw). Have fun!!!!

unfortunately LP just has so many bangers. 27 songs is not many considering their catalog. I was a bit surprised yesterday that they didn't shake things up a bit more considering they had a couple of months and bunch of shows under their belt (I know not a lot but enough to get a sense of what works). I really thought they would lean into more FZ stuff, like Good Things Go, and similarly, more Emily-crush-it songs from the past, like From the Inside. I would be fine with Crawling in a rotation spot. I would like to see IGYEIH live during this tour for sure. But Good Things Go has to be a lock. I wish FTI was as well. Would be very happy to get My December in there a bit as well.

The bridge of this song is really good and I like that they've added it to the BIO extended bridge when playing live. Overall it has grown on me and I think it would be fun to play in full live.

Then Two Faced. Keep counting up until they hit Figure.09

For sure. We could either be watching Forgotten at RAR 01 on repeat or listening to brand new awesome LP songs that have only be played live like 4 times, but are down a key or a touch off the album version. Or both. I know which side I would vote for.

Half the band is new, including lead vocals and lead guitar. We are lucky to get so many 25+ song shows already and if this is what they are starting with, the shows later this year are going to be much more refined.

Do you think it's because she's singing those "powerful" parts too far from her mic? Or just a bad mix? Or something else?

Thanks for the insight. As someone who is the opposite of an audiophile and can't really tell any of these differences besides volume and some weird sounds, I'll try to focus more when I listen back. The overall volume differences have been most noticeable to a layman like me. Mike's vocals always seem the loudest. Emily's vocals vary sometimes, especially when she moves the mic away from her. Guitar volumes seem to change a lot depending on songs. I can almost never hear Mike's guitar in any of the recordings.
