Just watched over the webcast. Sorry guys but I feel Rebellon isnt living up to the expectations of how I wish It was live. Chester was rough. He didn't have a great show vocally too. I think he knew it when he basically let the crowd sing all of Crawling. I think he had an off night. Didn't seem as energetic as he usually is. Robot Boy should just be called Mike Solo v2. Either way he kills it Same with the Actual Mike solo. Its my favorite part of the set right now. I'm so glad Mike's Guitar work on ITE lasted one or two performances. He adds so much more to the song when hes in the crowd recording with peoples phones and what not then the second guitar part does anyway. "I was told there was something to walk on over here," "Something to walk on?" Also noticed a little more Vocal Effects then I had previously heard. Mike has a lo-fi/distored effect on his Mike during LITE and Chester has a couple on a few songs. Also noticed that Brad isn't playing the usual guitar part during the verses of Numb. Might be wrong but I think hes playing the Numb/Encore guitar stuff up until the Chorus now. And I know its gets alot of hate here but I really dont mind the UIG verse mash. Bleed it out from Drum solo on is epic. Love the guitar jam they've got going.

Heres another one. Is there any pics of merch or anything from like 2000 that the guys have signed. Interested to see if their signature has changed over the years. I've got a feeling Joe's has considering how careless he is when signing things these years.

8000+ - Insane. EDIT: On the posts sort of topic. Whats the dots underneath our 'Staff/Member/Contributor' represent. I noticed everyone has a certain amount of dots.

Wait...what.... haha In Pieces

Some of LPs 16 second Instagram videos are better then the LPTVs these days. And THAT says something...

Funny, Ive been reading into this a bit lately with the whole 'royalies' of covers etc in a live performance environment. I know its easier to track studio records and pay royalities where needed for record sales but Live is a different story. I got this reply. The only issue with this is LP falls into a special catagoriy because they collabrating on this track so I dont know if because LP own at least half of the rights, if they are required to pay any sort of $$$ to Jay-Z. Sorry if its gone off topic but I thought I'd share my recent research. Ironically, LPs covers of Nine Inch Nails and Adele actually make me look into this topic.

I think this whole thing is pretty redicilous. I was able to pay $50 AUD the other night to see 3 of my favorite bands at my local concert venue. I'd much rather that then having to pay that much for a webcast. I also work for a company that offers Webcasting, streaming and on demand playback for clients. I know how much a professional webcast will cost to execute. The $40 charge is way to accessive for what they are offering IMO. I see nothing but profit to VyRT's pockets.

Yep, including this video that was posted in the FM new album thread here.

The beat actually contains numerous old samples from his previous work. Some had track name in their title, some didn't. Here's the ones with track names. FM Bang RTN (Remember the Name) FM Kick...Somebody (Be somebody) FM hat 2 RTN FM Hat Red to Black FM Hat RTN FM Crash WYG (Where'd you go)

Did anyone else notice a fair amount of the drum elements of this beat was used from Fort Minor samples? Majority of the sample names start with FM along with some containing the song names its from. FM Bang RTN (Remember the Name) FM Kick...Somebody (Be somebody) FM hat 2 RTN FM Hat Red to Black FM Hat RTN FM Crash WYG (Where'd you go)

This, the dance party and the rider are my fav chideos to date. First they started off a little lame with the band just talking to the camera answering questions but now theyre improving and improving.

Just echoing what Soul and Astat said. You'll need to do a bit of research into the verses if you want Mike to work one in. Anything around the 90BPM is good but it also has to match the bars of he instrumental section. I've been meaning to go through and see what fits (and try and put them over the studio remake I did) but havent had the time as of late. I will do it eventually...

Something special will happen for this gig. Nothing major and crazy but I'm sure there will be something special dedicated the the LPU for the show. With that said, same deal as last time summit go-ers. Take thousands of gear pictures and I will forever be your friend! But all in all, enjoy it people attending!

Come on guys. I need some AUS tour rumors asap! Dying down here.

Nice pics man! Thanks!

You da man! Show us this musical goodness! Haha

Like a Bawssss haha

I just want to throw an idea our there I feel works amazingly for opening a set. Lockjaw > Extended claps Given Up. Both 100 BPM and gel together so well off the back of each other.

Anyone get any photos of the gear during the stage walk? Theres been little to no 'activity' from people who attended the summit unlike previous times. Normally theres a thousand of photos circulating by now.

Come on, all we want is some APFMH eh!

Sorry for being so late to the party for this one. I didn't get to attend any soundchecks like Mikey did. I although did camp outside Newcastle Entertainment Centre from 12pm on show day and heard Blackout, Wretches and POA being rehearsed. Can't confirm if it was by the band or the techs tho.

Cool thanks My understanding is the Surface which sits between his trigger fingers is doing all his scratching and what not. He's switched to Traktor which I believe is a Microsoft Surface friendly program. The iPad on the other hand has just replaced the Lemur. Maybe that's linked up with Ableton as Mike's Maschine would be?!? I know Joe's rig used to be split into two sections. The DJ scratch and then the sample section.

I was thinking about something on the way home from work the otherday. I remember back when ATS came out, it was an experimental album and the band werent sure how these songs were going to pull off live. I even digged up some quotes for you... A Thousand Suns: Source Living Things interview: Source The Hunting Party interview: Source Now have a read of those quotes, you'd think they'd stuggle to pull off ATS and nail LT and THP. But it seems like the opposite. Every song off ATS has been performed in some shape or form. Thats 9 song songs and 6 instrumentals/interludes. LT has had 7 of its songs performed live. That number includes 1 Tinfoil instrumental which opened there set some nights and 1 verse from UIB on the WTFE intro. Same goes with THP with only 5 songs being performed live so far. So all in all, LP's baby being ATS has been easier for them to pull off live (in which they thought they were going to have a hard time with) then their last two which they said was made to be played live. You even total both LT and THP together and ATS has still had more songs performed in some way or another. Meh, I thought i'd just share my random thought.

Ive seen better crowds then Itunes festival.

Like everyone else, I'm enjoying these so much more then the LPTVs. I died at the pink eye pictures. I like where these videos are going.
