    Because Lestat is literally the reason Grey Daze got back together. The members fucking hated each other before Lestat started digging for their history. He is the closest thing to a friend that Sean has in the Linkin Park community. Everything he did helped promoting Grey Daze among Linkin Park fans. Then out of nowhere Sean says "fuck Lestat"! Twice in a row! That's fucking hilarious! The dude can't even tell his friends from his enemies. lol

    Yeah i remember well Lestat was the guy that was posting Here unreleased GD stuff thats why i was like why is Sean telling him to fuck off lol.

    Can I just take a moment to appreciate the activity here lately? LPLive hasn't been this active in years and it's nice to see not only the familiar faces returning but also a bunch of new people. I know that once this release passes we'll probably go back to a similar activity level as before but it's nice to have something like the good old days around here again.


    i do hope though that once this release passes we will get news about new LP / Mike music so the activity level might stay the same actually which will be great.

    The new 30STM photo book announced today is a cashgrab 100% (and I love Mars, saw them live 2 times in the Monolith tour). Crazy prices compared to the offer 

    I saw that today what the hell is a museum quality paper like .... 🤡🤡🤡🤡 Btw i saw them two times as well.

    Here's why it isn't a cash grab.

     

    Yes, it has enough value to warrant the price. You are getting studio Xero demos with Mark (completely unheard/unreleased, we didn't even know some of these existed), a completely unknown Xero song, a completely unknown Hybrid Theory (band) song, Pictureboard which has been wanted for 15+ years desperately, an impressively good quality She Couldn't which was just mastered this year in 2020 standards for release, and more. Astat showed how many CDs on IG Live that you'd need to known to have all of the B-Side Rarities in one collection - it's a lot. The LPU Rarities, I mean the LPU CDs are selling for insane prices right now. The Hybrid Theory EP too, that thing is worth more than the value of this entire box set lol. 

     

    Then DVD-wise, you're getting Frat Party which was out of print since 2002 but it looks like the music videos will be upscaled in better quality for the first time ever. You're getting Frat Party 2 which didn't even exist until this year, they literally just made it out of all of the unseen 2002 video footage the band has. Live show wise, you have Fillmore 2001 which is completely unreleased (potato quality of With You/OSC mostly full is on YouTube and that's it)... it's the band's first headlining tour ever which means it's oldschool and raw as hell. Should be quite epic. You have Rock am Ring 2001 on here in master quality, a big quality upgrade which is unreleased/unseen. Could even be different angles on it, who knows. Then Projekt Revolution 2002 which is also totally unseen - only 1 real video exists from 2002 in viewable quality online (OSC from Colorado Springs).

     

    The value is easily $300-350+ on this and you're getting it for $200. How much is the band even making on this? Are they even turning much of a profit? Imagine printing cassettes in 2020, it can't be cheap. 80 page books. All those vinyls, etc. DVDs. So, if you were to manufacture all of that on your own, no, you're losing a lot of money, but there is probably a small profit margin somewhere that they are getting by mass producing everything in tens of thousands. So say the band earns $10-20 on every box set - that's nothing.

     

    A cash grab would be 67 different editions of this thing for sale. This is an all inclusive box set release and is actually quite undervalued as we discussed on IG Live. We paid over $2,000 for She Couldn't in 2009. We'd pay that right this minute for Pictureboard ALONE if the opportunity came up and there wasn't a box set coming. So $200? Sign me up all day.

     

     

    The problem with this statement is there is a substantial amount of unreleased stuff here. Studio demos, unheard of songs, Pictureboard, live shows, 80 page book with stuff from Rob's parents' storage, etc. None of that is rehashed.

     

    If you are referring to the demos, it isn't the band's fault fans like us leaked all of these demos lol. We should be glad they are putting Xero demos, Dialate and Could Have Been on here instead of taking those spots up with Plaster, Part of Me (Demo), Dust Brothers, etc. Some of the audio is "rehashed", sure, but you're getting it mastered and all inclusively on one release. The audio is just one part of the box.

    On point. Couldnt be explained better.

    At this point they should release everything in vhs 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

     

    The scan lines that a dvd produces makes me want to rip my eye balls off 

    True xD i wonder why they didnt add HT on a cassette as well lmfao just like it was originally released back then. I remember my Own cassette at this point.

     

    they should have released it on blu ray but i think they would have had to remaster the videos first.

    So I tried to get on the website, but I couldn't get through the checkout page due to the warner servers. I ended up preordering on the US amazon. It should be the same, right? It looks like it, but I'm concerned because the website said the preorders got an instant download of She Couldn't, and Amazon doesn't have that.

    I didnt have any download as well. I had free shipping though which was a win for me.
