Numbrocker

Numbrocker, what was the encore? Meatplow, Piece Of Pie and Trippin' as was reported or just Piece Of Pie and Trippin' as your setlist picture suggests?

Meatplow, Piece of Pie, and Trippin' was the encore. I'm assuming the report was from me because I was tweeting the setlist. They might have done that because Dead and Bloated ended so well that it seemed like the perfect time.

I had a blast at this show!! Chester sounded fantastic and you could tell he really enjoyed the show. Plus Dean, Eric, and Robert were jamming the whole time. I 10000% recommend going to see STP if you have a chance.

Here my instagram with some pictures and video. I might upload some more, but I only had my phone and ipod with me, so the sound sucks, but it looks good. Also instagram only allows 15 sec snippets.

No real show notes to add except that I saw Chester side stage with Eric during 10 years. And of course the debut of Crackerman with Chester singing.

Honestly was my favorite concert I've ever been too. A lot of that has to do with personal interaction with Chester, but also because of how great Chester sounded. That genre of music is just perfect for his voice! Plus I didn't have to pay and arm and a leg for good seats!

Edit: Also if someone found good video of Out of Time I would love you forever!

Glad Brad muscled through and played. Don't think they were terribly confident with the new tech since he hasn't had much time to learn the songs. A little sad we still haven't gotten any real LPTVs about the Making of THP.

New LPTV has been posted!

Say what you want about the Warped crowd but they ROCKED IT! Plus the band looked like they had fun so not sure why all the complaining. Had a blast watching the videos! So some of the guests sounded bad, the point of this show was to have fun and introduce themselves to a group of people who might not have seen LP before. My favorites were Faint and OSC, and APFMH even though I couldn't really hear Jeremy.

The worst part for me was losing some friends on there, and then not remembering their usernames. I didn't have a twitter or knew them on facebook so they were just gone.

In fact I think I joined LPL because I wanted a reliable and decent forum. IDK who picked Ning, because that forum layout was AWFUL. That's what lost a lot of people. And now with twitter and LPL/LPA, they've made the LP.com/LPU irrelevant for the more hardcore fans IMO.

I think they could get a lot of the more causal fans back if they had a good layout. I mean people still posted on the Ning one. I just can't imagine a worse layout.

My guess is: Carnivores, South America in October, Europe after that. USA in December.

A bit too close to get money, but I'm always a fan of winter tours. In Texas the weather will be awesome or it'll be arena which are great. I'm still hoping for Jan/Feb though.

Bear in mind that Chester said it would be under a false name "an assumed name" are the exact words in the little interview.

We wouldn't know it was happening until some local scene-goer got online like "WTF!?"

I have faith that the LP fanbase would have figured it out.

I am onsite right now.

Massive THP posters on the hoardings in the arena, no tour adverts though (re: autumn tour rumours).

LP's merch this cycle is awesome, but it's £25 a pop..

 

Tomorrow can't come soon enough, but now, it's beer o'clock

 

EDIT: something interesting in the programme: "Bennington reveals that the band had been weighing up something far more low key [to celebrate/play HT in full], namely a run of US club dates under [a psedonym band name] in [hybrid theory's] 15th anniversary year of 2015. "That would have been so so cool" he enthuses, "but then download got in touch and it kinda felt like the universe was telling us to do something. We had to do it"."

A run of US club dates

As in multiple dates

So more people could go

WHY DIDN'T THEY DO THIS?!

That was a great LPTV! Takes a bit of the mystery out of the setlist of course, but I really wasn't expecting High Voltage or My December to make an appearance. But who knows, maybe they'll change it up?

BID is the only thing I don't like about the setlist, but other than that it's gonna be fantastic! I'm so glad we're at least getting the Hybrid Theory portion of the show on a good quality mp3! Anyone going to Download better rock extra hard for the rest of us!!!

Wow great post Mark! So hyped for this show!!

I don't know if people who already preordered get this perk, but I'm sure we'll find out soon.

Personally I was gonna just get the in store copy, but I'm glad I waited. Just preordered the cd with Download Fest.

Sounds like a problem on Kimmel's end. Maybe they'll play another show. That sucks though.

First listen to the album and I love it! Not quite sure where some songs end and some begin but I don't really care. Need to listen more before I do favs/ratings.

Is there any way people in the UK can use the iTunes stream thing?

Not sure, but MSC said that other countries have the stream too, so it might be in your store.

I'm so happy I can finally listen!! So worth the wait for the good quality I think.

Just wait a little longer if you're still holding out!

@heydudeimadam If you hold out from downloading a leak, your patience will be rewarded very soon... #TheHuntingParty

 

192kps, I'm gonna wait at least today hoping the iTunes version comes out.

FYI, requesting for the leak is not allowed.

Serg said in the shoutbox that it's 192kps. Don't think I'm gonna waste all my time waiting on such a low quality rip. Right now I'm just hoping the iTunes stream goes up!

I'm hearing that we might get an iTunes stream today and that the leaked copy isn't good quality. Might try to wait for the iTunes version since I've waited this long.

Linkin Park has just posted a stream of Final Masquerade on MTV, the 5th track to be released to promote the album.

This appears to be the last song to debut before The Hunting Party drops on June 17th.

We've now heard 5 songs from the album. How hyped are you for the rest?

It's believed that the song will premiere on Monday if you want to wait till then.

I think this is the first big leak for THP. Rebellion was posted on the Russia iTunes right before Chester's interview with BBC 1. I don't remember their being one for UIG or GATS. And of course Mike "leaked" Wastelands.

For the fellow fans holding out, we only have 10 more days!! (or until the whole album leaks somewhere).

The promotion strategy is weird... I don't know if it is really working, is it? lol

The lack of LPTV's is killing me... and it's also extremely hard to not listen to Wastelands and Rebellion

I'm wondering where the LPTVs are. I think Lorenzo or Adam said that there wasn't a documentary DVD with the German release (when we didn't know it was gonna be the live show) because we get LPTVs, but there haven't been any...

I'd rather have a DVD to be honest, but I do miss the studio LPTVs.

It is actually pretty smart on one side for the casual buyers to make a descision whether to invest in the whole album

I think this is great for consumers. All I know is that its very hard to resist listening too. Waiting for the 17th!

Another charity show for the STP members from Chestah.

I wouldn't say that at all. Chester seems to really enjoy playing with them and he sounds great doing it. I'm definitely getting tickets for this! Awesome venue, awesome bands! Gonna be a great show!

I really hope they play all of High Rise, but we'll see. Still waiting for the next STP full album.
