lol There is no shot Jeff will be allowed to release any demos to fans. Not only would the band themselves not be ok with that, at all, but Mark, who is on those tracks, would be adamantly against that. Mark is pretty high up in the music industry - completely separate from whatever status LP has in the world. Jeff risking his career by leaking a ton of Xero demos? Doesn't seem logical at all. Not only does Mike not want more Xero out - he had to convince Mark to even agree to put the Xero stuff on HT20. It's very unlikely any more Xero stuff would ever be released.

Would be interested in a Nottingham vinyl rip to see what it sounds like.

It's neither. It's a third edit of it.

Never heard of whoever that person is. That is going to get more streams than the 2002 Mix? Or a Lost demo? Or anything else? lol

Fiore did it. He shot the LP event at the Q&A and the Warner event later that day.

Which setlist says that? Where? It isn't like that on LPLive or setlistfm. The intro is a custom one Mike and/or Joe created. It has no known name that we can find. Obviously in their computer it has a name but we don't know what that is. On the physical setlists it doesn't look like they named that intro in 2003, besides "New Intro" on Projekt Rev 2003.

There is great cover art here:

Number 1 in Germany!

Even if there is no physical release of CC20, they should at least celebrate and put the live show on streaming (or, thinking in a fun way, press it to vinyl too). Full Roxy set meaning the songs before Jay-Z and then the take of the LPJZ songs on the CC live DVD. Just toss that out on YouTube or streaming and call it a day.

Yeah but it was also hard to play. Rob injured himself playing some of the THP stuff, they had to drop Rebellion and GATS for a while, right? GATS entirely. Brad had the tape on his arms. It was hard on them. They didn't seem as inspired live for THP. The LT shows were epic as hell though. 2012-2013 may be their best live era of the 2010s decade. Totally needed a second USA tour in 2013 for LT and a European arena tour. Really, really loved the Honda Civic Tour setlists (WTCFM in an amphitheater was epic). And 2013 in Australia & Asia had amazing sets. Remember Brad absolutely loved LGM live haha

Everything these guys do has some sort of problem or controversy around it lol

Great points about Projekt Revolution 2008. The collaborations with Chris - you can include the Hunger Strike video as a bonus track on the DVD, the one Cornell put on YouTube. LP absolutely can get the rights/permission to do that as they even put Hunger Strike audio on Songs from the Underground (can't forget that for the MTM Live Rarities Disc, again another good nod to Chris). And Crawling will be great to see. It doesn't all have to be the EPIC insane quality stuff - Tokyo 2006, Rock am Ring 2007, and Clarkston 2007 can be your elite quality videos and then put a PR08 show on for good measure and either MSG, KROQ 2007, or Europe summer 2008... or hell, even Europe winter 2008 or Australia 2007. There are so many options. Again - a situation where you can't lose no matter what you pick. Just Tokyo, Rock am Ring, Clarkston and a random show would make the fanbase go wild. Love Manila 2004 too. The band is on fire. It's the whole vibe of Seoul and Manila for me. Seoul is the night time production at a huge show for that setlist, we've only seen Live in Texas in the daytime for that setlist. And Manila, same thing with the Rock am Ring daytime show. The lighting and vibes are all there, the band is kicking ass. Could really care less at all about the quality, it's more about the actual show picked. And they picked some elite fucking shows for Meteora 20.

Metallica took the stage when it was still daylight before the sunset because they play so long, Limp Bizkit had a full set before that, and LP had a full set before that. So it was quite early.

It's hard for us to believe that from Mike since So Far Away is so cool and then No Roads Left happened after the Meteora album, so Massive seems so normal. Mike is VERY "meh" about Massive by his comments on Twitch and in person at the Q&A lol

Then this is a great opportunity to use the new version of the LPU to release a show exclusively to them digitally, and pick Munich 08 or some show on that tour with RME.

The LIT on streaming and vinyl is not an exact version of the DVD. It's missing some in between song banter and the start of the show is different, for example with the audio. It's more of "the CD with the extra DVD songs thrown in", not an exact audio version of the DVD. The LPU 3 versions are slightly different, at least on 1-2 songs. So yes the LPU 3 ones are exclusive. Maybe not APFMH and ALL of them, but some. Those versions are not on the 2023 LIT in Meteora 20.

Right. But who knows if it ever even got to that point with the song.

Did you guys see in the band Q&A Mike said Massive's vocals were a guide track for Chester like the BTH demo? Interesting, because Mike sounds great on it.

Oh boy.

Thanks! What were the differences between the Nottingham version they did last year and the re-edit they did to release now on Meteora|20? The mixing is incredible on this and was done from the multitracks, a huge quality upgrade from the original release. Maybe the one they did originally last year was just the same original radio mix or something?

Nothing about the future of the band yet. Phoenix said recently he imagines they will make new music, but doesn't have a timeline yet.

Joe sat down with HITZ Radio in Malaysia to talk about Meteora|20, which you can watch here. "Linkin Park’s Joe Hahn sits down to tell us all about #Meteora’s 20th anniversary, the success of the album, the limited edition super deluxe box set, unreleased material and more! #HITZSpeaks #HITZMorningCrew"

Thanks for sharing. This is a lot but we'll get through it all and find the highlights.

Would be nice to have a vinyl rip of Nottingham 2003 somehow, since the track splits are a little off in the release: - Rob cymbal taps to start the song are cut from the Hit the Floor track - Krwlng intro to Crawling is cut from the Crawling track - In the End intro sample is cut from the In the End track - Rob cymbal taps to start the song are cut from the One Step Closer track A little bothersome, not too much, but would be nice to have a vinyl rip to track it properly. Edit: Check the start of From the Inside, looks like maybe one cymbal tap from that is cut out and is on the track prior?

They can do it. There is plenty of material for MTM. Webster Hall "making of" footage. Summer Sonic 2006 if they want with QWERTY. Clarkston 2007. MSG 2008 in house video feed if they want. Put Berlin 2008 on vinyl. Put a 2008 Reading My Eyes show out there, like Munich 2008 in house feed. KROQ Acoustic Christmas 2007 is a great show. They may have more stuff on video that we don't know about. My picks for live shows: DVD: Summer Sonic 2006 DVD: Rock am Ring 2007 DVD: Clarkston 2007 DVD: KROQ Acoustic Christmas 2007 Vinyl: Berlin 2008 maybe a live CD or something of Munich 2008, some show with RME 150 demos lol
