Adam said they're going to try and live stream this Summit tomorrow. I put some times in the main post to help you figure it out. I'm going off what he listed on the LP Livestream account. So who's gonna watch?

Holy mackerel I can't believe it's been seven years. Maybe they will, but I'm not going to hold my breath. More likely I would think is that Mike will continue doing the hundreds of things he does, and the rest of the band will just chill with their family. Remember that 4/6 of them are dads, a lot of them with little kids.

In case people were curious, people were already lined up when I got to PH (at 5:30am) and only 85 of the hundreds lined up got a wrist band to see the band. They also had the LPU M&G there before the Club Tattoo people. From what I heard it was both good and bad. Obviously they had to go quick because the show started at 9pm (and they actually started at 9 on the dot). So some people somehow didn't get the whole band to sign things, while others got a chance to chat a bit. I don't think it was worth my barricade spot, but a lot of people enjoyed it.

Whoa lots of complaining from people who weren't even there. They put on a great show! More crowd interaction then I've seen them do in a long while. Including: A strip tease from Phoenix, Chester noticing his fly down after a while into the show and Mike making fun of him, Mike interacting with 70% of the barricade during ITE, Phoenix leaning over for fistbumbs, Brad kneeling down to sing with the crowd, Chester shaking lots of hands (mine included ), and Chester and Mike just talking to the crowd. I didn't have internet access while in Vegas, but I did get tweets to my phone saying a new setlist for the night. Plus I met Sean the day before the show and he said a new setlist too. However, knowing the band I really wasn't expecting much of a change, and that opener was BADASS. Sure to LPL people the setlist is annoying, but I was limping after the show because I jumped so much, and my voice was horse from screaming. Whoever said they wouldn't go to this show even if their flight and ticket were payed for... well I would have gladly taken it. Though to what LGraham was saying, I do think it's a bit odd that they have been dragging their feet about playing the rest of LT, ESPECIALLY since Mike said they purposely had the idea of live shows in mind while making it. I was praying for I'll Be Gone in Vegas, and not gonna lie, I'm gonna be pretty pissed if they get it overseas, especially since I'm not going to see another show till 2014 at the earliest. I still want them to play it though, and I'm glad I got to see COG live. Also a bad setlist/encore? Please let me remind you of the 2011 show (from Houston). 01. The Requiem Speech Scratch Intro 02. Papercut 03. Lying From You 04. Given Up Ext. Outro w/ Extra Note 05. What I've Done Outro Keyboard Transition 06. Empty Spaces Long Intro 07. When They Come For Me 08. No More Sorrow Long Intro 09. Jornada Del Muerto 10. Waiting For The End 11. Burning In The Skies 12. Numb Short Keyboard Transition Outro 13. The Radiance w/ Keyboard + Catalyst Vox 14. Breaking The Habit A Cappella Outro 15. Fallout 16. The Catalyst 17. Crawling 18. Faint Ext. Outro 19. One Step Closer Ext. Outro Encore 20. Wisdom, Justice, And Love 21. Iridescent 22. Shadow Of The Day 23. New Divide Synth Intro 24. In The End 25. Bleed It Out Ext. Intro; Ext. Bridge w/ APFMH (1) + Bridge; Ext. Outro As you can see they've gotten MUCH better. Odds are there won't even be a DSP from this show, so no one should be upset at the set. And they're not playing for the DSP listeners anyways, they're playing for the people who go to the show. And as a person at the show I pretty happy I went!

Good show. LP was very interactive with the crowd, something I have missed in past shows. I thought COG was miles better then the last time I heard a live video of it, though I might not have heard it the best from the pit. Crowd was a bit weak, which was disappointing, but to those of us who were there for 14hrs+ in line were awesome! I'd love to know what someone thought who wasn't barricade. I could hear barricade guys singing, but the people behind me were not very loud. PH did a really good job (after a while) organizing us. Only down sides was that we couldn't sit down, and they epically messed up getting people into the pit. But the show was a rehearsal and they did well. I'll admit I was hoping for I'll Be Gone, but no such luck. I'm still glad I went because they sound very adamant that this really will be the only US show of 2013.

Great job with the interview. I haven't finished the FM album either lol. Not my thing. Poor Adam. Didn't realize how stressed he was during the scavenger hunt.

Good video. I'm glad they addressed the way they were pronouncing "see". It bugged me that it was different from the album version, but ok now I get it. I hope that they still are tweaking it a bit for Vegas. Good to see that they're still having fun.

I can't believe this show is almost a month away. I'm hoping like crazy that they'll premiere I'll Be Gone. And they just put up the M&G option, so if you guys are going then you can try for a M&G. Odds will be good I'd think, since it's a smaller show. Must have been someone else because I've never been a big FM fan and I never went to the boards. You have facebook? We have a group on there. Just message me your info and I'll add you! And I'm staying at Harrah's. Try googling places near by, or since you have a car you'll have more options. I just have my two feet and maybe cash for the bus/shuttle.

Roll call thread / show discussion / place to post post-show pictures, etc...post meet up information here, everything.

I heard Numb on Youtube in 06. I few days later I heard Faint, and then I started to look up all the different videos. It was actually pretty quick for me. I got Hybrid Theory and Meteora and put them on my old mp3 and then joined the countdown for Minutes to Midnight. It wasn't until after my first show that I started to join the online community. I thought I could have gotten pit seats in the regular sale lol

Pretty sure it's pit. The "Golden Circle". They were on sale in the LPU presale, and sold out in a minute, no joke. Unfortunately I don't have the tickets anymore. I know a LOT of LPUers are going so finding people shouldn't be hard. Personally going a day early to hang out in Vegas. I already maxed out my hotel room, but maybe someone else could help out. Though I advise you to book sooner rather then later because the rooms are pricey.

I think it's ok. Very much a club song with a good beat, but really just an instrumental with "Powerless" thrown in occasionally. I wish LP had done at least one of these.

Agree. I thought that was a lovely little speech by Mike. I haven't listened to any of the South African DSPs so I wasn't aware the band had said something, but I'm not surprised. LP is always a class act. Also GORGEOUS visuals. What a beautiful country.

Mike looked so happy to get that mini vuvuzela. And I didn't recognize Debris for a second there. One of my favorite parts of the new LPTVs are all the new quotes Pooch finds. And this video really makes me want to see them do Roads Untraveled Live!

I agree. Personally, Meteora is my favorite album so I'd flip if they did something, but they barely acknowledged HT, which was more of an nod to the fact that the BAND was 10 years old, not the album. But if for some reason LP did do something, realistically I'd say it would be Don't Stay. I'd love to hear Easier to Run though.

You guys are getting a bit emotional of what is a pure "What If" question, and doesn't look to be happening anytime soon. I think it's an interesting one. Linkin Park is Mike's baby, so IMO it would be easier to replace Chester then Mike. I mean I'm more of a Chester girl, so I don't know if I'd listen to it. The real question would be if the band could find another person who could work in the studio with the others. Playing live is easier to replace then the chemistry it takes to make an album. Also I think you guys are dismissing Brad, Rob, and Phoenix a bit too hastily. Yeah they could have another person play their stuff live, but as for the studio they contribute a lot. Brad especially. As for someone who could replace Chester... I'm at a loss. It would be very hard for them to do. And then to the OOA/DBS discussion, I would KILL for an acoustic version of OOA. I remember the video of My Suffering and Walking in Circles before JK and HB got involved and it was fantastic. And we've all heard Let Down and Morning After pre DBS. I feel like OOA isn't a fair way to measure Chester's success outside of LP because A) no promotion B ) Howard Benson C) Julian K. I have a feeling that Snow White Tan would have been epic. He should have had Mike produce and just got a generic band behind him.

I'd love to know. Maybe they'll be an opening band. Though with this being the only show in 2013 for the US they demand way exceeds the supply, so they can price it however they want. GA sold out in less the a minute, so obviously people were willing to pay. I say a slim chance. I don't think I've been to a show where they're been exactly on time. But the most time you'll get is like 15mins, so you'll potentially miss the first 4-5 songs, if you're lucky. They might put it up later. This seemed to happen very quickly. I wonder if they will have an opening band. I think I'd cry from joy if it was Rise Against, haha. But Paper Tongues/Circa Survive/Muthmath, LP can pick them. I just wanna see Castle of Glass and I'll Be Gone.

This is why I shouldn't post things at 4am during finals week. lol The videos from Austin were great. Mike and Chester just commanded that stage.

First video I've found. Chester doing Bob Dylan's Like a Rolling Stone. He sounds great!

Got a GA ticket too. Might have an extra one if someone's interested?

Anyone get the Planet Hollywood tickets?

There was some bad mixing, but Mike and Chester didn't seem to be able to hear each other or something. The VGA performance sounded better to me.

YES THIS. I still don't understand why ND is still in the setlist. It's fine live, but it needs to be retired now.

Same. I thought of LITE when I heard it.

Maybe it was the scalpers that made it sell out. I'm pretty sure Houston sold out, but I don't know about Dallas.
