I have converted the original XERO  audition tape in GREAT quality. I took the song down from Soundcloud  out of respect to the release.  Siri now recognizes a song on the demo I have had for 20 years ( Pictureboard )... the others are clear to post, I assume. I have the video they requested for the audition process (at least one band member has confirmed they went through  the same process per Mark T) The audio tape is in perfect condition and plays well, the handwriting  of "Xero" is most certainly Mike's. I have versions of the tunes when the rapping was the focus of the tune and the singing was the refrain or hook only..... I have my tracking vocals with the audition tape,  as well as my demo that got me a Next Day Air Fedex package from Jeff Blue, with lyrics, this demo and the other studio tracks partially finished along with Mike's 4-track ideas

 

I was going to do a full interview with Mark Terrell ( the admin / founder of this page) but he stopped responding to texts after a preliminary interview, during the week of the  the 20yr release ( not sure why? ) I never attempted to leak or detract from any of these tracks, I had NO idea that there was so much interest around this tune..... The original XERO tape was in a case, in my closet for years,  the song on Soundcloud was there to substantiate a one-off crazy story .....There is a good story here if you are interested as fans and the true history of something you may not be aware of...... TJ

Does anybody know what happened with this? Does it have to do with Warner not wanting it out there or something? He only uploaded the "Rhinestone" instrumental to his SoundCloud before removing it again and put that video up on his YouTube channel of him playing some of the tape. I've asked TJ himself through Instagram, but he hasn't replied back to me. I heard from someone that he "disappeared off the face of the earth" after LPLive's interview with him, lol.

The "OUTSTEP" sample comes from the DJ Babu song "Step Up Break", which, in turn, samples Gang Starr's song "Step in the Arena".

"Step Up Break" plays at 5:36 in this video.

The sample plays at 0:12.

Also, the 1997 Xero demo version of "Stick N Move" samples "Change The Beat (Female Version)" by Beside.

The sample plays at 0:42 in the video.

The sample plays at 3:37 in the video.

Note from Rob 

 

This is my new drumstick, it's so cool and beautiful.

 

 

Lol 🤣

Has someone tried using Photoshop or something similar for the Relative Degree logo shown on the flyer that was shown in the MTV's The Ride Linkin Park documentary?

They could've replaced the last 4 tracks on the Forgotten Demos disc with "Ashes", "Turn To Grey", "Dreamer", and "Weight", or possibly something else as well.

Another thing that the boxset didn't have that was definitively missing (that someone on here has mentioned before) was a re-issue of the CD version the Hybrid Theory EP. I mean, since it was reissued on vinyl in the boxset, why not also reissue it in CD form as well.

They could've replaced RAR 2001 with another show, such as Docklands 2001 or another one of their shows from around that time.

I still can't believe that we got like 7 versions of POA, wow. Very unnecessary. 

On 10/16/2020 at 12:20 AM, Justin said:

We definitely didn't need as many versions of POA as we got.

We got 8 versions of POA as a part of the boxset.

1. Final version

2. 'Reanimation' remix version

3. BBC 2001 live version

4. Docklands 2001 live version

5. "Oh No" instrumental demo

6. LPU 12 demo version (different from "Points And/& Authority" from 9/8/7-track demos)

7. Crystal Method remix 'Reanimation' outtake

8. 6-track demo ("Stop the talk show" alternate rap)

We got the final version, 2 remix versions, 3 demos, and 2 live versions.

I'll take a listen to it to see what Mike is saying.

Edit: It’s definitely “A small product of the broken charade.”

I second this. I found this interesting. Thanks for keeping some news going, especially in this period of unprecedented silence from the LP team.

Thanks, I've actually been trying to contact multiple LP collaboration collaborators/former band members/executives/other band members (who knew the band members early in their careers)/others that had to do with LP (mainly through Instagram) about the collaborations, along with their demos and live show information, but I still haven't gotten replies back from most of them.

Just wondering, but would it be a good idea to message Samantha about this performance, such as ask her about if she remembers the songs that were performed, the name of Chester's audition song, such stuff like that?

Kyle said in an interview with Linkin Park Argentina that he played in performances at Los Angeles and Arizona.

https://www.taringa.net/+linkinparktaringa/entrevista-a-kyle-christner-ex-ht-1999_pnnnl

According to him, it can be assumed that he definitely played in these performances:
1999.08.27 Tempe, AZ
1999.08.28 Tempe, AZ
1999.09.02 Los Angeles, CA

Accordingly, in Fullerton, 7 days before the performance in Tempe (1999.08.27), in theory he also played.
 

The question remains, did Kyle play at 12 november 1999 in Fullerton, or was Ian Hornbeck already participating there (and did he perform with them at all)?

 

In general, it would be great if Kyle looking at the photos confirmed whether he played there. The person who interviewed him in 2011, in theory, should have remained his contacts.

Maybe there's a way to contact Kyle about it? I've been wondering about the setlist to the 8/27/1999 Tempe, AZ Big Fish Pub show, as well as the date to the 1999 live performance of "Esaul" that was released as an easter egg on 'Frat Party At The Pankake Festival'.

Found this in my enormous piles of linkin park debris. Can anyone tell me what show it is. I'm guessing 2001ish.

I think that's the same, or, if not, a similar setlist to the one shown in the HT20 boxset book.

We already got Brad's, Dave's, Joe's, and Mike's notes. Next we'll get Rob's. I wonder when we'll get that one, and I wonder, if possibly, that it'll be about a Meteora 20 celebration with a super deluxe box set. Honestly, though, who knows what the next note will be about.

Unexpected move, she was on board w Grey Daze and HT20, this is very weird I just don't get it. This song deserves to be heard I wonder if $$ Is the rea issue

 

 

 

 

Maybe one of us here at LPLive could ask Talinda about the situation to see what's going on with the song. Just an idea.

Back in 2001, right before Linkin Park's European tour in September, Linkin Park gave an interview to OnStage where Mr. Hahn revealed he and Mike had worked on a track with the hip hop group The Visionaries. "Chester just did a song with Cyclefly and also with DJ Lethal, and Mike and I just finished a track with the Visionaries too."

Later, in 2006, KeyKool, a member of The Visionaries, was questioned by a Linkin Park fan about the song. This was his answer:

"Hey, LMNO did a song with Mike Shinoda back in the day, maybe 6 years ago.

Then the Visionaries recorded a song with Joe Hahn and Mike Shinoda, and I believe some of the rest of the group was supposed to add stuff to the song...anyhow, it was before the "ReAnimation" album, and we all decided not to put the song out....so, I guess it's just one of those, never heard, never put out things.

We've only heard a rough version of the song, and never heard anything after that.

Kool, give thanks."

The song was finally released on April 20, 2015 by 2Mex through his Bandcamp page. The song can be purchased for $1.

LMNO said about the recording, "The Visionaries recorded the song at Kevin Sakodas, Mike wasn’t there Joe wasn’t either". Questioned if the song had a title, he answered, "Honestly I’m not sure".

Years later, we have an update on if the song had a working title or not from Dannu:

"Unreleased" didn't have a title because him and the rest of the Visionaries all agreed it wasn't worthy of being released. The whole recording of the song was not what you hear on this version. The song was all spilt up and the rapper was supposed to rhyme in between. That's why the song sounds weird. According to him, it would have been better we they all wrote it together.

When I asked him about if he knows who raps what specific parts during the chorus of that song and if they are sampled vocals from another song or is it just him and his bandmates that are rapping those parts, he said this:

Quote

Those are all scratches from records… only DJ Rhettmatic knows.

I also asked him if he knew anything about the LMNO/Mike Shinoda collaboration from 2000, when Linkin Park were called Hybrid Theory, and he replied to me with this: 

Quote

Nope, that's an LMNO question.

Do you know anything about music theory?

You got me there. No, I don't.

Very late on this, but here's an update to this 2-3 months later: Almost 2 months ago I messaged Chris Flores about if the song was done, since he told me two weeks before that that the song should be done in a couple of weeks, but, anyways, he replied back to me with this:

Quote

Yes it's done. Sounds amazing! Bad news though. Talinda doesn't want to release it for some reason.

I then messaged him if she gave a reason on why she didn't want it released, and he replied back saying "No", meaning she didn't give a reason on why she didn't want to release the song. He also said that "maybe because the song is about her" and he said that he's pretty upset about the song not being released, as well as saying that maybe one day, it will be released.

I then told him about if he confirmed Slash and Talinda's approval for him playing the snippet of the demo of the song. I also mentioned about Talinda wanting to release the demo the way it was, before the song got re-recorded with live instruments, but Chris decided to return to the studio to finish the demo before the idea was eventually shelved. I also asked if she changed her mind or something. He replied back to me with this:

Quote

Yes she changed her mind for some reason. Since she never released it, I wanted to get Matt Starr and Doug Pinnick on there before she did decide to and now she told me she "came to the conclusion that she doesn't want to release it."

I recently just asked Chris if Talinda changed her mind again on wanting to actually release the track or not, and he told me "No".

Has anybody reached out about sharing the rest of the song since the auction ended?

Kinda late on it, but I messaged the owner through Twitter a week ago or so, and I have yet to get a reply back from her on it.

Isn't this photo from the ht box set?

I don't remember seeing this photo in the book that came with the HT20 boxset.

I've known about this image for a year now, but haven't gotten around to showing it, until now.

I originally saw it on an Instagram user's Instagram page about a year ago. That's how I originally found out about it.

It came from this site: https://www.timetoast.com/timelines/linkin-park-a2ff06f1-de83-4612-86e7-eb8294579f21

A larger and more clearer version of the same image was also pinned to Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/799811215046432969/

Not only that, but the same larger and more clearer version of the image was pinned to Pinterest twice: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/791648440723219505/

The second Pinterest link leads to VK.com, where you can find the image: https://m.vk.com/photo-22736034_419659620?z=photo-22736034_456271849%2Falbum-22736034_00&list=album-22736034_00



I found the pages where the image was by reverse image searching it.

I honestly don't know who originally got the photo or where it originally came from, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.

Also, it's different from the photos we got in Jeff's book:

Here's the show that the photos come from:

How do you find the Junkyard Scientific song "Flight Path"? I look on the Linkinpedia website on the Junkyard Scientific page and found this link that was supposed to lead me to the song. Instead, it shows me the page, but it just says the words "Summer Be Like" and there's nothing else. Besides the words I mentioned before, the page is blank. There's no audio file that pops up for you to listen to. The link that has the song "Animal House" works, though.
