Fantastic performance

as it has been said, he is paid to perform for bands live. If LP are not performing he will just take other gigs. Im sure LP will reach out to him for the next tour

Using the word cringe is the cringiest thing you could have done honestly. Try to not only read, but also understand. Happy to take this in dm so u stop spamming in this topic

No faults are given here. If you are unaware of what superfans do at times you are blind on the topic. Not saying its fault, just that you are naive really. Which is not a bad thing.

Im not talking about her particularly or about Mike particularly, Im aware of their interactions. But if you guys follow any other Band / Celebrity online, and see their fans, you are blind if you dont see how creepily obsessed some people get, and it shows when these bands/VIP dont wanna interact with those "superfans"

Dont know about many on this site, but I think she promotes the band way more than most of us (not all by any account) do, so its normal she gets some breadcrumbs from them. But, there is also a downside to that, if you were a band member, would you wanna be having meet and greets with somebody that obsessed with you? I honestly wouldnt, most band wouldnt

No she doesnt. These kind of people just get obsessed with some things, in this case a band, and do it in hope to get noticed. She did, and got plenty of reward for it. She does free marketing and gets a little cookie from the band from time to time in the form of a like from a band member, being in some official shots, etc

I dont know about the superfans, its clear some people like the Ananas girl or that other woman that goes to every job get some kind of VIP treatment, and im ok with it, they do free marketing basically. I dont know Adam myself, but Lorenzo has been always extremely kind to me at shows and has given me picks as well. There is also another girl in their team? I see her hanging out around them at the shows, maybe she also has something to do with LPU?

Mixed feelings on this. We know they are perfectionists, but on the other hand they wanted the connection with the fans and that raw LPU with unfinished material, Its not for everybody, its for the super fans. Because being a "superfan"doesnt mean buying everything they put out blindly, it means digging into why the band is the way it is, into their music, what makes their songs the way they are, etc. The art, not the merch

Signed, lets see if the groupies decide to sign too or will keep paying for whatever the band decides to milk them for

Im joining the critique. Its time for new demos, and they have plenty. Adam and Lorenzo know what the fans want, and it cant be this

I feel like the creative teams behind this kind of merch are really lazy. These are not exciting products

On one end you are absolutely correct. More than anything I miss demos, cd's and meet and greets. On the other hand; early pre-sale, and early entry are INCREDIBLE features. I like my comforts, I aint waking up at 5am to sit down in a queue. I go there at early entry time, watch openers and watch the show from the barricade. That, for me, is luxury

People that wanted tribute had Hollywood Bowl, that is up there to play on repeat. Talking about cashgrabs. They had post traumatic album + tour. They had the reference on the debut show and the hometown show. They have backing vocals at every show. What else do they want really? A Hologram? Band members crying on stage saying they miss him? Im sure Chester would be extremely proud of the band going this way, and of Emily, Colin and even Alex giving their 150% to honor the band that adopted them. This album+tour has proven that LP still has what its needed to top the Rock Charts and fill stadiums up. Next tour probably won't be as successful (hopefully I get proven wrong) due to the nostalgia not being there anymore, but I can still see them filling up Stadiums

You got proof shes in a cult? Nope, you don't (now you are going to say her mom was in it and the whole mars volta thingy) but you will fail to show evidence that she is in it after that. Therefore my dear trumtram, who is making assumptions now? She talked about the mars volta thing confirming what we all knew. So which behaviour you want to stop from happening, assuming our lead singer is in a cult and calling their cashgrabs, or people calling out this behavior? Genuinely curious, and again, please dm me nxt time to avoid going off-topic, its a matter of respect towards the community.

His last PS HEAVILY implies he believes she is in a cult. Which is a pretty ignorant take, given there is no correlation anymore between her and them. Believing that she can just post on her socials a smiley picture saying fuck the cult im out of that bs is being delusional. Nobody can do that. It is the world we live in.

You decided to keep off-toping which is bit disrespectful but given you expect a reply here I am i will make your day. I think we all see who we refer to when we have those conversations, but next time feel free to ask directly so we can help you with that. I appreciate that with the PS you also show your true colors, not that they were that hidden honestly

Not saying you are, but im glad you follow me that closely, means I inspire you😙 Nobody was pushing a narrative, I was showing the fact that in multiple socials there is a recognized and hate for women, and people not accepting that a woman can front Linkin Park. And seeing the comments of some users here, it was tracking pretty well in that direction (Id be glad to be proved wrong tho). Now if you want to believe that nobody hates women, that no people think Emily is in a cult, or that those same people accept gladly a women fronting a Rock Band then u are delusional and live in a yuppi world. And honestly, if thats the case, I'm jealous. And please do not keep this off-topic going, its disrespectful to other forum members. feel free to write me in private

So you basically twist the words of people on this forum to make a cheeky joke. Low level but its expected🤪 Theres no need to know who anybody is around here or how long we have been with the band, opinions are opinions. Failing to recognize that music is not charity though, needs to be adressed. And i agree, sealing tape or yo-yos are stupid ideas (im the first to say most of the t-shirts they make are bland af or corny), but if they get sales, they are right.

Multiple LPU pop-ups at venue cities, LPU pit literally reserved to fans, the two experiences at the last show, the collabs with brands to do exclusive merch runs in cities, the hat give away at every show. But hey, lets focus on two items of the shop. Are you aware that music is a business? Or you think Linkin Park is a charity act? Just asking? Or are u maybe sore because u one of those LP died with Chester, Emily is in a cult, or who knows, maybe u are a GD band member lmao

Yep, lets also not forget the band got material and instruments stolen in brazil, just as a cheeky reminder

I think Spain opened up as a market for them, Germany, Italy, UK and Spain must be the start point of every european tour, and then take it from there to other countries like france, poland etc

The only valid reply to this is this link: Linkin Park continue to fumble their epic return.

I also think it will be released on platforms at some points, the band saying it wont is just to create a bit of FOMO, i would do the same ngl

OSC is in every single recording. If theres a song that can be left out of the classics, thats the one
