Didn't he say "3.... maybe 5"? Would love to see Good Things Go and Keys after last night got IGYEIH and Stained. IGYEIH is a total jam live. Looking forward to it.

That phone thing is so like, it's something you see in videos and when you're there in-person sure there are phones you notice but you can see the stage absolutely no problem and there is so much going on you never pay attention to the phones. No issue there. Can see the stage easily and people are literally starved for this band - this is the first USA tour in 11 years in any shape or form for them. I don't blame them for recording. They are in amazing shape live right now.

Holy SHIT is all there is to say about Raleigh. The best band performance I've seen since they came back - 6th show I've seen. They absolutely burned the place down. The crowd on the floor was insane, just going nuts all show. Like 15-20 around us just formed a huge group in the middle of the floor roaring all the words to the songs and jamming. The pit was to the right of us and was going nuts. It was SO LOUD and mixed absolutely flawlessly... so impressed with the sound. LP came in with a mission and lit the place on fire and the crowd just reacted massively to it. A++ show, the song debut was GREAT and Stained sounded amazing. We are incredibly outnumbered in the crowd with every single person around us besides who I came with ( @ChuckCheese @xxHybridXeroxx ) had never seen the band. It's almost a 90% new fanbase out there, which is very good for the long-term success of the band. Met Erynn after the show on the front rail. Super nice guy. Ran into all sorts of people. That was a massive show and the floor was popping off. Couldn't say anything better about it - Emily was really in the zone all show and the vibes were just so high the entire time in the crowd and on stage. Even better than the Austin show. The setlist they are playing kicks ass - how about that From the Inside? Awesome! Emily came right to us in the pit and the place was going craaaazy. The From Zero songs kick fucking ass live. LP is in the zone right now... go see this if you can. Wow.

See you there. Big one as they rarely get over to this area.

Great post and well done - awesome story. Looking forward to the first show in NC since 2014 - wow it has been a long time but part of me feels like it was just yesterday that Charlotte 2014 happened. Dirt Off Your Shoulder/Lying From You show. In Raleigh today and heading to Greenville next. Let's rock and roll, I'll be on the floor and doing LPU Early Entry. From Zero Fest hat with LPLive on the side.

That sounds like a job for @SerioDrew!
-
What is the song before Inception Intro?
-
Mike recently called in to Mike Jones to discuss Linkin Park. Of note, he says Brad had sole power over picking Alex for a touring guitarist.
-
Mike called in to 98 Rock to discuss the band ahead of the recent Baltimore show.
-
Definitely didn't see Stained coming - thought that third rotation song may be Unshatter. Points is good.
-
Come on back to the set, Lying From You!
-
Well there are no gang vocals in the first place lol. Mike is the only one singing that line and it sounds like sampled vocals are layered on it. Dave, Joe, and Alex are not on the mic on that. Seems like an odd choice, right?
-
Would much rather never have Cut the Bridge in a show over a song like Lying From You, From the Inside, etc, lol Really surprised they didn't hit Points and something mellow mid-set (LOATR, etc).
-
The rotations don't make any sense unless now they are random as there were Set A and Set B rotation songs in Set C. Maybe Lying From You is completely gone?
-
It's... really unique. Can't pinpoint a previous LP song like it. Mike whispers quietly on the bridge to give you an example.
-
lol at now we have a LFY and a LYF abbreviation. Oh boy.
-
Rotation predictions: - Points of Authority - Keys to the Kingdom - Unshatter (debut) - Lost in the Echo
-
lol we are coming. Yes.
-
Really great technical analysis here - greatly appreciate it. So it's really just Alex learning the songs slightly differently than Brad played them - you could argue he learned them more accurately and in relation to the studio version, sure. All I meant to point out from Sept 5 to now is the guitar indeed sounds quite different to me in those specific spots when Alex is playing. I of course know he is a very talented guitar player.

Not to keep harping on it since we aren't able to change it, but this doesn't sound completely off to you? https://youtu.be/miQ9Y5UW08g?si=5mx-PqIcJ0b6m281&t=233 It sounds... "chunky" or something, like the rhythm is off. Like... "chunka, chunka" and not smooth or something. I don't play guitar. But I can immediately notice at the show that Papercut, LFY, POA, APFMH are really sounding different on guitar. Thats just how it is now. Listen to that and compare it to like Rock am Ring 04 and you can hear a night and day difference. What exactly it IS, I am not sure, because I don't play or speak in guitar terms - but I can hear it audibly very easily at the show.
-
Austin looks like it's the magenta/purple new one for FZ Deluxe, right? Or am I wrong? I noticed the Papercuts zoetrope lookalike but not the blue one.
-
SIB as an opener is tremendous. Massive energy on that song.
-
Day of the show just check and click the QR code and you'll get there. No problem.
-
Well it's fine because the LPU pit is even too close to the stage so the back of that coming and going for merch and bathroom will work great. Good Things Go is awesome. I am surprised it is rotating - I'd have thought it'd be more of a staple than Overflow. Thought Cut the Bridge was coming after Mike didn't do it in Austin on Bleed It Out. Wonder what the other set rotations are. There are 4 rotation spots. Points, Keys, Unshatter, Lost in the Echo?
-
Heard them at the From Zero Fest in Austin but wasn't able to confirm that info yet. They sound good though.
