Uhhh, have you been following this tour? Mike is up to what, 3-4 Chester mentions just on this one leg of the tour already? He's brought up more than ever right now.

No pop up, it's only a few per tour. LA will get one. None in a while before that.

Happy Linkin Park Day to all who celebrate the band's surprise comeback one year ago today. Where were you when you were watching? What do you think one year later?

It has both working titles. Villain and UIOP.

Looked into this again and still no luck.

UIOP being a working title is pretty funny since it is what comes after QWERTY on the keyboard lol

Watched this full show on YouTube. From the Inside is really a great live song. Emily messed up the second chorus of New Divide going into the bridge and the band did not self destruct on it like they have in the past lol Love Stained in the early spot, they should do that more and drop Crawling.

The My December investigative work was amazing. Hope they play it. Should be a Keys to the Kingdom night too with the rotation with IGYEIH.

Mike saw the fanbase blow up about the WTCFM verse 2 - I bet he pulls out some good stuff for these next few shows for verses. Jealous of this setlist. They are really rocking it right now.

It's in the demo only right? They recreated it for the studio version? Similar to the intro of Cure For The Itch unmastered which is sampled but Joe/Mike rerecorded vocals for the studio version. What do you think?

The Good Things Go to me sounds good but the Overflow snippet sounds like it isn't fully mixed/mastered yet? The vocals pop more. That isn't a bad thing, it sounds cool. Or am I reading too much into it?

Linkin Park's 2025 From Zero World Tour continues through Poland, Germany, and France. Joe enlists Mike to cut his hair and the band celebrates the end of the tour with their crew in Frankfurt.

This was hands down one of the best shows I've ever seen of anyone. The crowd was absolutely insane, next level feral. Louder than the band at times. People talk all day long on the Internet about the Philly crowds - it's all true. They go freaking nuts for LP the entire time. The energy was just crazy - it was like it could be an international show or something, but Philly is like that every time I see LP there and the band notices it. Boston night 2 was off the walls crazy too. The entire northeast run is the most successful they have ever had - we're at like what, 7+ sellouts now in the first leg of this North American Tour? That is just crazy, the band is exploding in popularity right now.

We posted in December 2024 about Linkin Park possibly performing in India in 2025. Since that time, Indian promoters visited the Linkin Park team in Jakarta in early 2025 on tour. And now, Indian sources are claiming that Linkin Park will perform at Lollapalooza India in 2026. The exact source of this appears to be a Reddit post from an alleged insider with the festival. Articles have appeared online since this post claiming that Linkin Park will be at Lollapalooza India, held in Mumbai, around March 2026. Lollapalooza India took place last year on Mumbai’s Mahalaxmi Racecourse on March 8–9, 2025, for its third edition with Green Day, Shawn Mendes, Glass Animals, and Louis Tomlinson. As we have always said, we have zero insight into if the band will actually visit India for the first time and this is now the second year in a row big rumors have gone around about their return. Will they actually visit on the From Zero Tour? We are unsure, but they are at least in that region of the planet with their long-awaited Australian return in March 2026 as well. Could they couple on Asia shows and an India visit? Possibly - we are not sure. But we wanted to share that rumors are popping back up and the Lollapalooza crowd seems to have the band's name being thrown around. We will see if it finally happens - it seems like a moment of "when" they will finally make their debut in India, not "if."

Did not know it was their 50th show - Alex, Colin, Emily all. Wow.

Linkin Park is back in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, home to one of their rowdiest and loudest U.S. crowds that they play for! And with it being a Philly show, we of course dedicate this show, this thread, and this weekend to the legendary @nkramar who we tragically lost earlier this year. Always thinking about you, Nick! It's already the 10th show of this massive tour and Linkin Park rolls into Philadelphia with several plays of all three of their setlists - A, B, and C - under their belt. With Philadelphia scheduled to get Set A, it may look obvious what they will play, but not so fast... the Detroit Set C featured a changed end of the main set and encore. Could we see the band starting to switch things up on the tour already? With "Lies Greed Misery" being added in, there are still plenty of opportunity for other songs to pop up, especially older ones - "Lost In The Echo", "My December" (shout out to the Nashville show, where hopefully it will be played since it was recorded there), and more. Linkin Park is no stranger to Philadelphia and Camden, playing 16 shows in the area since 2000. One of the most iconic shows in their career, Live 8, took place in the city in 2005. LPLive is so old we remember watching the live stream of Live 8... on dial-up Internet! And chatting about it on mIRC in chat rooms and on AOL Instant Messenger! We of course also know another great show around this time period - Camden 2004, which we were fortunate enough to have received and released quite a while ago. This show is one that the LPLive team sat down to watch together during the opening 4 show run on this tour. A big shout out to our friend Billy on guitar on "Faint" at this show, a song he absolutely crushed. This is one of the band's most beloved tours by diehard fans so it is no surprise that iconic shows like Mountain View 2004, Camden 2004, etc are so popular in the Linkin Park community. What a massive show! We all know Camden 2014 was webcasted and quite a few of you all were there, but one of the most iconic moments to happen for local fans was the Linkin Park Underground Summit in 2012 in Camden with Linkin Park, Incubus, and MUTEMATH. The day started out bright and early for fans who had traveled across the world to see the band and culminated in an amazing Meet & Greet and acoustic performance that had "In My Remains" in the acoustic set. What a treat! And of course, that night Linkin Park hit a grand slam on their setlist, opening with "A Place For My Head" and burning down the amphitheater over the next few hours; this was one of the best shows in the LIVING THINGS cycle. In other highlights in the Philadelphia area, the 2007 show in Camden randomly had a crazy setlist change mid-tour that left the encore with "Cure For The Itch" into "Breaking The Habit", a super unique start to an encore for the band. And in the Meteora 20 box set, the Philadelphia show at Veterans Stadium on Summer Sanitarium 2003 was included, giving us now two full, professionally shot, releases from the tour. Linkin Park has never had an album era miss playing Philadelphia and From Zero is no exception with LP returning indoors there for the first time since 2011 at the same spot... another great show for A Thousand Suns. There are highlights from the early days as well, with the Electric Factory show in 2001 being somewhat of a local legend for those lucky enough to have attended the high-energy show. And don't forget our very own @RogueSoul playing "Roads Untraveled" on guitar with Mike at the Post Traumatic Tour stop of his tour in Philly! Needless to say, a LOT of iconic moments have happened in the band's career in Philadelphia and we are really looking forward to this show. For local fans, there is also a pop-up event at John's Water Ice with a From Zero flavor, taking place on August 15 and 16. Don't miss out! A fun note about this show is that Linkin Park will be the first performance at the venue after it changed names... THIS WEEK! Less than 48 hours before the show, the venue name changed from the Wells Fargo Arena to the Xfinity Mobile Arena. Who will be at this show and where will you be sitting? We hope to link up with some friends as usual at this one, so if you see us be sure to say hey! After this show, Linkin Park has two days off before heading to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for a second Pennsylvania show in a row and then heading down south to Nashville, Tennessee. These will be the last east coast/southeast stops of the tour as Linkin Park then heads to the midwest and further west over the next month. We're having a blast following this tour and we hope you are too!

That 2003 show is really epic - surprised they didn't release the full thing on the Meteora 20 box set. Would love another Easier to Run video and a Hit the Floor video. But the Nottingham show is really epic - glad they put that out.

Easier to Run is really great. Love that Rick and Andy talked about it. Emily would absolutely nail that song.

Get to know Colin Brittain of Linkin Park! We recently caught up with Colin and Linkin Park at their show in Frankfurt, Germany!

We can't get a response about the song.

Who is muting Chester? When has that ever happened?

That sure was fast!

What the fuck at removing Chester from the music videos?

Chady films a ton now so Mark can edit. They have footage, they'll get it out.

You are correct, just adding a few things: Nashville will still be a 360 stage, aka the pit is all around the band but yes they closed off some of the seating. It will not be endstage. It's the same stage setup all tour, they just don't have those grey areas available anymore to buy. The midwest sold very poorly for the band but the northeast was the most successful run they have ever had there - 7 absolutely slammed shows, like 90-100% capacity at all 7. They've never played multiple nights in cities and done that well in the northeast. In the future they may want to cut down on the middle of the country shows and do a full northeast run (with Philadelphia, and do 2 Montreal shows, etc) since they can't get enough of LP up there. Look at some of the other midwest maps - it's pretty bad. But they now know what they can and can't do in the U.S. - at the end of the day it's nice to see them make up shows from 2015 and 2017, but they will definitely cut it down some moving forward. Just hammer the full northeast and then the select other markets.
