LinkinMark

Yeah I get the feeling they really took the time to craft ATS to the finest detail of how they wanted it. Not that the recent albums aren't what they want. I just got this feeling from the entire ATS hype/cycle that this was something special, something they REALLY cared about. Maybe I'm just mad about the direction they took Interestingly, Bono, of U2, and Dr. Dre, have made more money outside of making music than they ever have making it. Dre from Beats Audio and Bono from his Facebook shares. So if anyone that is mad here is also a fan of U2, get your shaking fist out cos Bono dun SOLD OUT!!! but srsly...why would you be mad?

I am a member over on LPA but I'd say I've probably only signed in about 3 times. I haven't really spent enough time there to get to know the members. Obviously I made some first impressions and to be honest, something didn't sit right with me. And also someone from there pissed me off at the London scavenger hunt lol. Although, I must give credit to Joe over there for tracking me down and getting me my signed LGM CD from the band for my friend and I. For me, LPLive has a much more user-friendly layout and I've always felt welcome here. Plus, I love talking about the live aspect of the band to the extent we do here, picking out every detail and such. Even on shows out way out of my time zone I'll stay up and just wait for the live tweets of the set (call me sad I have no shame ) There's just something here that feels more comfortable for me personally. I visit the site every day.

I can't even explain how little this bothers me. I actually hope they make some successful investments. Also, I haven't personally seen interviews where it takes over the entire conversation. Their involvement with the fanbase is pretty much the same as it was 5 years ago. They haven't taken something away from us to go this other route. If I had the money they had I'd be investing it too and trying to make as much as I can. I don't think the last 2 albums have been great but we can't say it's because their focus is on something else or not. Mike made a new FM track and will probably make more which suggests he's still very interested in making music. Plus, those albums not being good is only my opinion I you don't want something, don't buy it. I'd love a Mike Shinoda custom watch but there's no way in hell I'd shell out the money for that. I'm not mad about it.

I'm not entirely sure what you guys are arguing but the Kenji beat does come in at 0:45 on that video and runs through the rest of the song. Mike starts rapping Kenji at 2:11

Daaaaaamn that end to Cigarettes! We need a DVD!

Body Mass Index is a measure of body fat based on your weight in relation to your height. Hope this helps. Or, you know, what Astat said

'Welcome' seems to be doing pretty well. I've seen it being shared on a bunch of mainstream media sites and it has 1.2m youtube views as of right now

Great post JZ! I can really tell these shows mean a lot to you. Enjoy the show

Ewwwwwww Crawling is back. If anything needed to come back, that definitely wasn't it. It's also kind of weird to have 'Welcome' in the set. IMO they should get rid of Joe's solo. Everyone just stands still during it and is like wtf from what I've seen and it comes straight after Robot Boy, which I think should go in to a song. Other than that and a few songs that I'd personally like to be added back in, I can't really complain too much about the set. The song selection isn't too bad but the set could be stronger at points.

I don't get why Mike favourited Ryu's tweet about having a verse on 'Welcome' or Apathy's tweet. I still just feel there's something else to all of this. I'm probably wrong.

I can't see why he'd acquire the youtube channel and do all of this stuff if there wasn't more to come. A new site, new social media, youtube channel, all this new apparel just for one song? Unless this is all just normal for a one off single and no current intention to release any more music

Mike said he painted a huge mural for the video and Ryu posted pictures with Mike there so he must've known about it. Therefore, trust no one

Despite what he says I think there is more to come

404 not found

Wastelands has gotta be one of their worst choruses ever This made me laugh

I'm not buying what Ryu is saying...This is all so exciting! Also THP didn't have verses anywhere near to Mike's best. Hopefully he'll just let loose on this new stuff.

YYYYEESSSSSSSS!!

http://www.billboard.com/articles/photos/live/474959/hot-tours-linkin-park-incubus-journey-enrique-and-j-lo I found this a while back. Not sure how much it helps because it doesn't list individual attendance numbers. Although it says sell out next to every date. Also, Artist: Linkin Park & Of Mice & Men Venue: London, UK – O2 Arena Date: Nov. 23rd-24th, 2014 Gross Sales: $2,057,830 Attendance/Capacity: 26,922 / 31,580 Ticket Prices: $82.16, $72.77, $39.12 Artist: Linkin Park & Of Mice & Men Venue: Manchester, UK – Phones 4u Arena Date: Nov. 22nd, 2014 Gross Sales: $1,096,450 Attendance/Capacity: 15,192 / 15,444 Ticket Prices: $77.59, $68.19 These numbers were apparently posted here: http://www.billboard.com/biz/current-boxscoreat the time of the show. They are no longer listed there. Again, it doesn't have the separate numbers for the London dates but at least there's the Manchester one...

They said the "fun to play live" thing for LT and for THP and look how that's turned out. When ATS came out they said they'd have difficulty translating it to a live setting and played pretty much the whole thing. So I think it's just better to not listen to anything they say when it comes to this stuff

Lol! I often find it's hard to remember stuff that actually happened at shows I attend

https://youtu.be/EjN9L6YB5bg?t=1566 This one? Think it's the same security dude

Another vote for A Line In The Sand from me. It was close between that and Mark The Graves. Stop hating on Bleed It Out I think if you took out all the songs that have been complained about on here they wouldn't even have a set to fill 20 minutes lol

Yeah I didn't even know Mike was in it until he said during the twitter listening party, just that part at 3:11 sounded a little different to me

Is 3:11 Mike's vocal before Page's vocal is added?

It's not our fault Living Things sucks
