Not for 2024.

Not that we know of. But we will provide setlist updates on Twitter as usual.

We are very excited to announce a project that we have been working on for the website, part of which you may have already seen, and that is moving the live guide on LPLive over to the Linkinpedia pages! For a long list of reasons, this will better help integration with the wiki overall (song pages, etc), but a long-term goal of getting the website into a mobile-friendly format is now finally achieved! This has been a long time coming for a mobile-friendly layout for the site. Over the course of the year, we have tried many different layouts of the show pages themselves, but we are pretty happy with where we landed. Some obvious updates will be that we have the "Acts" integrated into the setlists like Linkin Park used in 2024-15 for The Hunting Party Tour and again in 2024. We are able to put show intros, interludes, etc as their own "thing" on the setlists. Additionally, below the setlist we now have a song chart showing which album the songs in the concert came from. All of the usual features of a show page are there - setlist, show information, show notes, other notes, sources, gallery, etc. We will be uploading the full gallery to the show pages again this year. The pages will be linked from LPLive - NOTHING is changing on LPLive and we are not "rebranding" or moving sites or anything... we are and always will be LPLive but we saw an opportunity to upgrade how we were doing things and we wanted to take it. We are just seeing this as the "next evolution" of the show pages and how we archive Linkin Park shows. A HUGE thank you goes out to @Rasputin 93 for leading, overseeing, and engineering this project. RammWiki is his creation and is simply an incredible site. Many things are still being updated and moved over, as the band comeback happened before we were ready, but we are integrating more features in the coming months during the FROM ZERO era and we encourage people to leave feedback and suggestions! We are working on a good "live landing page" on the wiki to serve as HQ for all things live (with good stats like we used to have on the LPLive homepage, etc)... more on that this year. As always, THANK YOU for the support and a big shout out goes to everyone that has helped us archive information on Linkin Park & all other projects over the years!

LPU early entry info hasn't been sent out yet, probably tomorrow. We'll post about it when it comes in.

Correct! Saw that after we posted the thread, weirdly enough lol

Much of our staff/team will be at the Forum show but we will figure out how to get the live updates out since it's the first full show back. Going to message @Rasputin 93 the setlist to update live on Twitter.

We'll be at the Forum so if it is for sale there we'll grab it.

On Twitter on Saturday, September 7, Lorenzo Errico replied to a fan asking about LPTV saying that Mark Fiore is currently working on a new season of LPTV. LPTV, a longstanding video series that provides a glimpse into the studio work, concert touring, and more by Linkin Park, has been inactive during the break by Linkin Park so this return will be highly anticipated by fans. The series has not consistently been active since the European Tour in 2015, about nine years ago. With 137 episodes in LPTV currently, a new look into the recording of From Zero and the concert touring will be welcoming. Mark Fiore was spotted at the first show of Linkin Park's comeback on Thursday, filming content.

Attendees at Linkin Park's show on Thursday were treated to event-exclusive merchandise after the show, including a surprise CD for lead single 'The Emptiness Machine'. The artwork comes from a painting Mike Shinoda did and the CD features two tracks - 'The Emptiness Machine' and the instrumental of the song. Copies were limited at the show, but so far no information has surfaced on the CD being sold online or at other concerts yet.

Yes. 4 is the max.

The morning after the LA show, Mike spoke with long-time Linkin Park fan and KROQ DJ Nicole Alvarez about the band's return. He explained how it all came together with Emily and more.

The day after the first show back in LA, Mike spoke to Q101 for 15 minutes virtually about the return of the band on stage, how it was performing with Emily and more. Mike mentioned that Emily got emotional on Waiting for the End and that he was nervous during the first part of the show.

With a 2 hour set they have room for a lot of stuff. That's a long show. If LYING FROM YOU is in the set then there is room for deep cuts... they can play some good stuff. Would love to see anything Emily sounds great on!

They sold that CD single at the show. Could not get one because it sold out fast.

Wow this audio smokes and the camera angles are excellent. Nice work. Hope they keep this up for all of the touring cycle, love seeing this type of content!

$150 before fees. Yes. New LPU had access to them.

The promoter probably paid huge money to get them there for one show as a region exclusive or something. Or maybe there are more album show events in LA that week for the release. Let's see. They already printed up a ton of merch etc with just these dates on it.

As the band stepped on stage in Los Angeles this week, there was a new face to the crowd - Colin Brittain. In interviews this week, Mike Shinoda spoke about Rob Bourdon's absences and his decision to leave the band to Billboard: "Rob had said to us at a point, I guess it was a few years ago now, that he wanted to put some distance between himself and the band. And we understood that — it was already apparent. He was starting to just show up less, be in less contact, and I know the fans noticed it too. The Hybrid Theory rerelease and Papercuts release, he didn’t show up for anything. So for me, as a friend, that was sad, but at the same time, I want him to do whatever makes him happy, and obviously everybody wishes him the best. I had done sessions with Colin — I met him around 2021, when I got an invite to a session with a couple of different writers, and Colin was one of the guys in the room, and I immediately clicked with him. He’s playing drums in the live show, and drums are his first instrument, but he plays guitar and bass and keyboard, and he produces and mixes. We have a similar way of looking at music, of starting from scratch, and I really enjoyed working with him and bouncing ideas back-and-forth. I don’t know if any of these songs are going to be released, but we had done something with grandson, Bea Miller, Sueco — just getting in the room together to make stuff. And then when Linkin Park started making stuff, for whatever we were going to do, it was just like, “Oh, Colin. We’re making stuff. You should come over.”" Talking to Zane Lowe, he said: "We had a conversation a little while ago, a couple years ago at this point, where he said he wanted to step away. We didn't talk about that in public because we didn't know how that would work out. The fans noticed it, we released a bunch of things and he wasn't apart of any of the interviews or marketing. And that's why. We’ll always love the guy. We'll always respect the wonderful things we’ve built together. With his absence being a real thing, I was already working with Colin." While Rob is not a member of the band moving forward, we are thankful for the music and lasting memories he created with Linkin Park.

Mike has said over the years he could perform longer live but other band members in the band did not want to do longer sets.

In the midst of a whirlwind week of the band's return, new music, tour announcements, and more, Linkin Park has sold out both United States comeback shows at the Los Angeles Kia Forum on September 11 and Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on September 16. The shows will feature the band performing in a very rare 360 degree circular setting, allowing for a unique production but also a larger amount of tickets to be sold to fans at these venues. In an era where presales and on-sales are a mess for many bands across the planet, Linkin Park managed to run two very successful Linkin Park Underground presales for their diehard fan club. By doing two LPU presales on September 6, one for Legacy members and one for new members, on the same day just hours apart, the band managed to get up to 90%+ (Brooklyn) of tickets at at venues in the hands of their fan club members. A unique move of these presales was opening the entire venue to the LPU versus allocating a small amount of tickets for the fan club, allowing them to make up a larger continent in the crowd. Additionally, fans were excited to see an "LPU Reserved" section directly in front of the band in the crowd with tickets that would only be sold to LPU members. After the on-sales began on September 7, the Barclays Center show sold out in a matter of a few minutes while the Los Angeles Kia Forum show sold out in less than an hour. Mike Shinoda recently commented in the Zane Lowe interview that Linkin Park will be performing a 2 hour headline setlist and the band has been working on the production for the show for quite a long time. Tickets for other shows on the From Zero World Tour go on sale in the coming days.

That event was fucking amazing. Will write a great review on it. So much attention to detail and the LPU CRUSHED this. Amazing.

Nicely done, @RogueSoul

Confirmed? Brad, Joe, and Dave all said LP has been writing for the past X amount of years - 5? 4? lol

The Emily following on Instagram is pretty suspicious indeed. Real, a decoy, or something else (collaborator on something)?
