It's a weird take by them to be upset the band is playing *more* shows than originally announced. People should be grateful we even have a tour, much less that they are playing new areas. There are a million things that could describe this - the Lolla contract says they can't announce the headline show first, or LP didn't know demand was this big until Lolla tickets sold. Who knows. This is really common for them, they will announce a Hamburg arena show after they have Rock am Ring/Rock im Park announced for months. Etc.

Wow the show intro here could go down as one of the most iconic starts to an LP show ever. Like top 5 moment for professionally filmed LP show starts. That's a hell of an intro.

Watched this show yesterday. Have a LOT to say - first of all, this is an insanely good performance. Remember this is the THIRD show of the entire touring cycle and the SECOND in Europe. That is crazy they were performing this good with a brand new setlist already. There is true magic with the OG 6. The band started so hard on the LT tour and then for the U.S. tour, while the setlists were GREAT overall, they really sadly fucked us a bit with the songs. I really wanted to see Runaway and From the Inside. This core set from Pinkpop should have been played exactly like this in the U.S. - it still bothers me they didn't keep this set. Anyway, about the show. The start is pretty incredible because they run through all these heavy songs for half an hour and just crush them. The crowd is really into it, Chester is blowing up, and Rob is rocking so hard he has to take his glasses off. God damnit APFMH into Given Up into Faint into With You, Runaway, From the Inside, and Somewhere I Belong is just insane! If APFMH didn't kill you, then Faint in the 3 spot would destroy someone in the pit. lol. Brad's guitar on With You just sounds heavy and dirty, in a good way. What a gift this is for fans. We take it for granted at the time this is happening because it's just another show, just the same set, etc. But damn this show rocks it big time. I remember this show, I remember Lisbon the show before it, this whole tour had tremendous shows. And can you believe they didn't even play the UK in 2012?! There were *entire tours* proposed for LIVING THINGS in 2012-2013 that did not happen for some reason - unsure if band politics/internal stuff, or offers, or more, but what a SHAME because that era was epic for them on stage. They roll like 14 singles in a row to end the show but hey who is complaining with that? They are in great form, the crowd loves it, they are having a blast. Banger after banger, could you imagine seeing them at this show? You get like every major LP song in one set you've ever liked, with maybe Lying From You as literally the only exception. But you get some Hybrid Theory deep cuts instead. Badass. Mike told me that summer at a M&G they deliberately wanted to play more old songs that year for fans and he hoped they enjoyed them, I said YES we love that shit of course. To many this is just another show, but think about it like this - you could have seriously released a show like this as something significant (a live DVD) if you are Linkin Park and it'd be one of your most legendary/well-known shows ever. What we all would do to see the OG 6 perform one more time, with a set like this... wow. Breaking the Habit in the beautiful sunset gives off huge TLTGYA vibes from the Road to Revolution DVD... just epic. You can hear the crowd roaring the BTH chorus... look at the emotion coming from the band, Chester is wearing his heart on his sleeve on the bridge with his gestures, Mike is jamming, Brad is singing, Phoenix has his hand in the air, we get one more of these epic "shake the mic" videos at the end of the song from Chester. Fuck. GREAT stuff here.

Damn this is a good show. The best Points yet from Emily and the crowd is insanely great. The time between shows reflects positively on Emily's voice here as she is really on it. Really like it!

Well done on this. This is a bit messy if they are removing "thank you" and such from songs... they have to be careful or they will eliminate the longest versions of the tracks as the primary versions that exist. The goal should be to always export the full song (no transitions) and add a tiny fade at the end if needed. They seem to instead be chopping things. What was removed from Standing in the Middle? The transition into the live sound of the next song?

Sorry to hear. Always sucks when that happens. Next time for sure. One thing is guaranteed, with 4 shows in Mexico this year alone, they will return every album for multiple shows.

The U.S. even had LA start and end the 2012 year, which is cool. Club show for LPU and then KROQ Acoustic Christmas.

No one knows. Maybe something shorter again. But better than nothing. Don't forget 2013, I'd say that was the last of the prime for LP1. Before The Hunting Party era. They had amazing setlists in 2013. One of them was like APFMH -> Papercut to start or something crazy.

Pinkpop is continuing their archival releases and will be putting the full Linkin Park 2012 show out on YouTube on November 15, 2025 at 11:00 am EST. This follows Pinkpop releasing much of the 2007 show, minus a few songs, recently.

Depeche Mode ended up releasing the full show outside of the documentary, right? Isn't that what is coming next? Don't understand the outdated comments since these were great shows with the return - there is still a ton of room down the road to release 2025-2026 shows. The touring cycle isn't even done for the album yet lol. Also some fantastic songs like Breaking the Habit were played then.

Holy shit at how toxic the fans are on the Linkin Park Instagram. That is a horrific comments section. People have their headspace totally wrong on this.

As many Linkin Park fans know and have been waiting on for a year, LP filmed the São Paulo 2024 shows professionally and announced plans for at least the first night to be shown in theaters in 2025. Rumors around the show indicated that fans at the venue were interviewed by a film team who claimed a documentary on the band was coming at some point with the night one show. Unfortunately, no updates this year have been provided by the band and fans were beginning to think the project was scrapped. After all, the shows changed quite a bit from the end of 2024 with the introduction of the rest of the From Zero live songs in the show and the removal of a handful of 2024 songs the band was performing. It would, at this point, have made sense to film and release a more recent show (or showS) that encompasses/encompass more of the album. After all, major shows took place all across Europe (Olympiastadion, Wembley, Stade de France, and more) and the band recently performed an incredible tour in South America after going coast-to-coast in North America. All of that followed Mexico and Asia to start the year, so 2025 has had a LOT of shows! Well good news is on the way. Following three absolutely massive, iconic shows in Brazil, our great friends at LinkinPark:br have an update on the long-awaited From Zero live release: They share: "News On The #FromZero Movie? We received information that the long-awaited live film from the From Zero tour, recorded in São Paulo and announced by #LinkinPark last year, had its release delayed. Although the initial expectation was for this year (2025), all indications that the official launch was for 2026. Since we don't have an official word on the band or label yet, we cannot confirm an exact release date. However, our sources indicate that the movie is still confirmed, just won't arrive "this year." We're going to have to hold our anxiety just a little longer! Tell us in the comments: what are your expectations for the film?" They are claiming that now the project has been postponed and will be coming in 2026. Linkin Park still has a lot of momentum with the tour, with Asia, Australia, and Europe still to come this year. It is important to know that LinkinPark:br, source-wise, was first to know about the São Paulo 2024 concerts well before the band's comeback was even rumored, so we would tend to believe this news from them. At this point we are unsure exactly WHAT the band is doing - if it really is a documentary, if it's a standalone live show (which seems like the most UNLIKELY option at this point), or if it's something else entirely. But what we are glad to hear is that something is coming next year from the band. We are waiting anxiously to see what that is!

That was a great show and one of Emily's very best on the world tour. Check out Cut the Bridge, that one was pretty good. It would make sense to just put Brazil 2024 and 2025 together and put those out, lol. SOMETHING, we need something.

Weather looks pretty bad this morning and then it should move out for the show.

It's a Linkin Park show day in Brazil, and not just any city in Brazil... the band headlines yet another massive concert in the amazing city of São Paulo! Fans may recall the From Zero album release shows in Brazil last year, with two nights in the city, but before we get there, let's recap a few iconic moments in São Paulo over time! Of course, one of the most famous shows in the Linkin Park fanbase is the insane show at Estadio de Morumbi in 2004... ironically where Linkin Park makes their long-awaited return today. This show was for the Chimera Music Festival and with over 80,000 FANS IN ATTENDANCE, this show went down in Linkin Park history! Fans to this day have requested the full show from Brazil but with no mention of it around the Meteora|20 release, it is possible the full recording of the show does not exist anymore. Here's to hoping someone at Warner, LP HQ, or MTV finds the show in their vault one day on a mislabeled tape. Linkin Park was firing on all cylinders for the last show of the Meteora World Tour in Brazil in 2004, their first-ever show in South America. Sadly, it took the band 6 full years to return to Brazil, with Minutes To Midnight not having any shows in South America. Linkin Park performed THREE tours in the U.S. and Europe, each for the album, and likely exhausted themselves doing so. Combine that with full Asia and Australia/New Zealand runs and you can see how they didn't hit the entire globe at that time. The good news, though, is that right off the bat to start the A Thousand Suns World Tour, Linkin Park headed directly to South America and headlined their first shows in Argentina and Chile along with their long-awaited return to Brazil to headline the SWU Festival. This was right when the new songs on A Thousand Suns were getting played for the first time, so fans were treated to ELEVEN songs on the album starting with Wretches & Kings in the set! Luckily, some footage of this show was aired on TV so we can see how amazing the crowd was again for the band and we also were treated to a DSP (Digital Souvenir Package) live release by the band. At this show in 2010, Linkin Park returned to closing the show with Bleed It Out again after experimenting with What I've Done closing for the first three shows of the world tour. What I've Done didn't last long as a closer and Bleed It Out returned to stay in place for a while... but Faint and One Step Closer still popped up at times! And from that moment, things became regular for Linkin Park in Brazil. After a great world tour for A Thousand Suns, LP headed right back to South America for LIVING THINGS in fall 2012. Going from 1 show in 2004 to 3 in 2010, the band then expanded to 5 shows in 2012 and coupled an Argentina performance with 4 shows in Brazil - their most to-date! The 2012 performance at Arena Anhembi is one of the best performances of the LIVING THINGS World Tour, although that world tour was so great from start-to-finish it's hard to pick the best shows. Remember Summer Sonic 2013? Australia 2013? Everything in 2012? And the list goes on and on. We are very lucky that the entire show in São Paulo in 2012 was broadcasted as it was a true highlight. What a crowd in Brazil! If it was not clear to the band before, São Paulo clearly showed that they were one of the biggest cities in the world for Linkin Park. A big shoutout to the modern From Zero era too, as it has held that spot for the band and we have seen others emerge as well - especially Germany getting even bigger than ever but also places like Mexico City! Linkin Park slowly started dialing their world touring back a bit after Minutes To Midnight, understandably, and not every continent was featured on every album tour. For example, Australia missed out on several albums in a row and unfortunately, the visit to South America for The Hunting Party was very brief as Linkin Park played two shows at Circuito Banco do Brasil in 2014 but did not make it to São Paulo. There were VERY strong rumors at the time that Brazilian promoters presented offers to the band to headline three more shows, including São Paulo, with Panic! At The Disco, but the band did not accept the offer and therefore, only two shows were performed. So, after several years, LP made it back for One More Light and played a great show at Maximus Festival in São Paulo in 2017! Brazil 2017 was really unique in the terms of the show opening as it had a very rare opener with The Catalyst, something Linkin Park has done just a few times throughout their history. Lucky fans! And that brings us to modern day with the From Zero era! With rumors of stadium shows in São Paulo circulating through the fanbase as early as April 2024, tipping fans off that a return was imminent, the band delivered and headlined two absolutely massive shows at Allianz Parque. These shows were professionally filmed and featured different setlist rotations each night, providing fans in Brazil with a rare chance to see two different shows at one venue. Linkin Park teased a theater release of the first show (or possibly a mix of both?) to come in 2025, but with just a few weeks remaining in the year, nothing has happened yet and things aren't looking too great for this show to come out... we'd love to be proven wrong! The full show was broadcasted on Multishow again for the band - maybe we should get around to watching it if a theater release isn't coming... ha! To-date, this is the last performance of quite a few of the songs in the setlist - Friendly Fire, Leave Out All The Rest, Lost In The Echo, Breaking The Habit, and My December. All of these are songs we would love to see pop up again someday but unfortunately none of them have made their way into the 2025 setlists as Linkin Park started moving to playing more and more songs on the new album. A rotation spot for a few of these would be really nice to see for 2026. That brings us to modern day, 2025, as Linkin Park is rolling through their largest South American Tour ever with 7 shows across the continent. This show comes after Curitiba, which was a massive and crazy crowd, to kick off the Brazil run, and comes as the second of three Brazilian stadium shows. Importantly as well, this is the first time that Linkin Park returns to Estádio MorumBIS, the location of their iconic 2004 show in Brazil. A homecoming in the country of sorts. So this one is going to be legendary once again judging by how great these crowds are in South America so far. Interestingly, setlist-wise, we are unsure what to expect. Linkin Park loves Brazil, and there are a lot of options of what to play in the rotation spots. Of note, the three rotation songs this year that have not made it into the South American Tour so far are Keys To The Kingdom, Let You Fade, and Unshatter. Will any of these 3 get played this tour? Or even tonight? Let's see! HAVE FUN if you are going to this one - it is a hot spot for Linkin Park on the planet and we know Brazil is going to deliver big time once again. We have had a blast watching the show streams online and we're looking forward to another one with the LP community. Enjoy and have a great show!
