MMM

There is a good chance that they will play From The Inside because according to the order they will play Set B

Honestly, in my opinion, GTG is the only bad-sounding song live from FZ, where paradoxically it is my favorite song from the album. And this applies to the vocals in the chorus. The reception of music is a subjective issue, and many people don't like it, others love it. The problem is not that the singer can't do it, but that it's probably the most layered production song when it comes to vocals. Before they ever played this song I said on this forum that this song should not be played because of the vocal production (I believe that for a similar reason they never played Powerless) but evidently, they want to play everything in this era. I don't think the use of a substitute falsetto works here. But again, everyone has their own point of view, and others may like it. And here I admit that I said wrongly that they should abandon this song. Every artist is a decision-maker and will do whatever they want.

Man, I was too bitter. When I watched the livestream, I did it on my phone. Right now I'm watching it on TV with good audio equipment. I haven't reached GTG yet, but everything sounds 10x better. Even New Divide. To be honest, I feel a bit stupid about it now. 😅

I love Cut the bridge live. This song has new life on the stage.

Band need to retire GoodThingsGo. This is ugliest thing live, the worst song they could have chosen for a livestream. XD. Emily is not able to pull this song. Stained or OEO is 100 times better live. They should make changes to the setlist. New Divide sound flat, Lost should be only acoustic because it sound flat in full band version. Throat tearers like GivenUp should also be limited, because you can see, or rather hear, that Emily is a little tired of this tour. Or rather, her vocal cords. If a band wants to play for years, they should think about their health.

100% agreed. If you want to play in the current line-up for many years, stop doing it. It is not necessary. Setlist is heavy enough. It's better to play Keys To The Kingdom or Casualty or Lost in the Echo in that spot which are heavy but don't require as much stretch in the throat for a long time as GU.

I won't predict what the band will do. Because as usual, they will surprise us all, but I will write what I would like this album to contain. - Definitely more interesting riffs. On FZ we have Two Faced, Casualty, IGYEIH in its entirety and the bridge in HITC. The rest are powerchords and octaves. Brad is sitting at home, let him show off a bit and give a skill challenge for the next tour for Alex. - More Rap elements. A rich samples. HITC sampling is one of the best thing for me on FZ. A return to Mike's classic rapping with a more interesting flow and less schematic structures. I'm not as much of a fan of mike singing as most of you. I prefer it when he raps even though his flow is worse than it used to be. - longer tracks... -...with more unusual structures like they do with LYF - guitar solos - instrumental track or tracks - 12-15 tracks

A shot on target.

Variation of the melody that Emily doing in Stained last chorus is fcken great in the last shows.

Brad was there too, but Colin played guitar. It seems to me that he has some strong anxiety disorders and that's why he doesn't perform live

I thought so too. There were a few interviews where the topic of Chester was discussed, but during the concert I don't remember it In Minneapolis, they only said that they had also recently experienced a tragedy. But other than that I don't remember

Finally, the band has a bit of a break. The second amercian leg is the most packed. Emily still sounds great and there are no signs of voice fatigue. I was worried at start of the tour, but now I know that she can manage voice perfectly. The future looks bright.

Phoenix had a great setlist. Best rotations IMO.

LP in their songs touches the problem of mental illness and they are a symbol for people with mental illnesses, so it's no wonder that it has one of the most difficult fanbases. XD

At the very beginning I was fascinated by this track because Em gives the coolest vocals here imo. But the song is generally incoherent. The drums sound strange. In some places like a placeholder. Even in the chorus, which in my opinion is the most polished fragment. Verses are super super weird. Using the same riff in the intro, verses and bridge is also not a very interesting. Whole thing sounds unfinished. I think they released the song on the Deluxe Edition because it was a song that opened the eyes of the band members to Emily's potential joining the band. They emphasized this in an interview and wanted to share this story with fans by sharing this song. After all, Mike won't say in an interview that he chose a weak or unfinished song to release it on an album with only 3 new songs
