  1. All these OML songs and they aren't even playing the best song, It's a shame
  2. Dude, I promise Papercut was not there when I looked at it. Don't call me a liar. Maybe it changed as I was posting in this thread. I also checked the setlist on Setlist.fm and it didn't have Papercut when I looked at it. Note I looked at the setlist before I found the paper setlist. And yes, it's been over an hour since I looked at the setlist because I went to go eat and that took 45 minutes itself.
  3. Guys, the LPL setlist didn't have Papercut in the setlist. CHILL. I was assuming it was a last minute drop or something when I finally found the picture because LPL didn't have it in the setlist. Usually you guys are 100% on top of things. 1. No, it's the same song split into two different parts of the setlist. If it's an intro to OML, play it right before OML. That simple. 2. This was on the assumption they only played 7 HT/M songs which is what LPL's setlist said. 3. That doesn't mean they should do it. The other lead singles actually fit in the encore, Heavy does not. 4. I'm not worried about North America tour overall, I'm worried about my specific show. I have yet to Somewhere I Belong and Breaking the Habit. If I don't see either, I'm going to be very sad. I know people complain about the lack of rotating setlists here but rotating setlists are trash when it affects you directly. I saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers and didn't get to see Dani California (probably my favorite song by them) because it was one of few spots in the setlist they rotated songs. When I found out Portland got it the next night, I was a little irritated. And yes I realize a band doesn't have to do anything for me. 5. 10 songs from one album in a setlist? A whole album in the setlist? I don't need to watch another Bring Me the Horizon. Seen that twice, never again. When a band has a lot of material diversity is key. I could give a lot of examples of artists I have seen live only play 3-4 songs from the album they are promoting. They key thing in common? All these artists have a lot of albums. I think the Carnivores set did it right. They had a fantastic mix of all the albums and didn't overload on one album which helped make the show incredible. To the all caps: read above. LPL didn't have Papercut in the setlist.
  4. The Requiem is a different song that The Catalyst I think it's fair to assume they could drop SIB for the US tour based on the fact that they just dropped it here. OML acapella is basically OML lite, play one or the other not both Edit: Most of my complaints would go away if they actually played Papercut
  5. So I just saw the setlist and I have a lot of complaunts. It looks like they played One More Light TWICE, that is unacceptable. Also if I remember right Mike said they wouldn't replace the old songs with songs from the new album. That determined to a lie. How could they drop Somewhere I Belong?!?!?!?!?!?!? Heavy in the encore is a joke. If they don't play SIB on the North American tour, I'm going to be so sad. If they play the same song twice I'm going to lose it. That is NEVER acceptable, why waste space in the setlist? 7 songs from OML is a joke too. Just keep it at 6 and rotate OML songs.
  6. I remember you guys used to edit the OPs with the setlists, would that be possible to start doing again? Its easier to find it then go to the live guide.
  7. EDIT: I realize you probably meant defending the OML setlist but my point still stands. Up until One More Light Linkin Park was great at choosing singles. HT, M, MTM, and ATS the singles were often the better songs on the album. COG and LITE are the two best songs from LT in my opinion and they were singles. Rebellion and FM were two of the better songs from THP and they were singles. Even GATS was a perfect single for THP and better than the most of the album. I fully believe Linkin Park was great at choosing singles until this album. Also the setlist now is all singles except Wastelands and OML songs. There is way to do an all singles set list so it turns out amazing and that's what I feel Carnivores did (even if 4 or so songs weren't singles).
  8. I agree with this. I may be biased because I saw this opening live in person but it truely was an amazing start to the show. When it comes to Linkin Park, I think every show should start with energy and end with energy in the encore. This is a Linkin Park setlist I made on my own and outside of the length of the setlist and Don't Stay, it's ac tually a very reasonable setlist that I feel does a good job mixing high energy songs with softer songs as well as starts with energy and ends with engery. https://open.spotify.com/user/123591090/playlist/3jYLnmfJg3Pi6VlKWYJD0G I just feel like doing the actual version of Crawling will give the set more energy which this current setlist definitely needs. If Given Up takes a toll on Chester's voice, maybe he just shortens the long scream. I don't see why the rest of the songs would take a toll that much. I understand he's getting old but I always felt Given Up was a staple that should always be played. Is this the first time since Given Up came out that it's not performed live in a full headlining setlist? I understand it doesn't flow with the album but they can find ways to mix heavy and soft. They have done it before and they can do it again. I actually really, really enjoy they blackout interlude and runaway. Sure, I'd rather have a Meteora song over Runaway as my biggest complaint is the lack of Meteora in the setlist but I love they fact that they brought back songs like Runaway, Points of Authority,, and even parts of With You because they are songs they don't play very often. I do agree that LITE should be played in full (well they all should, just play for a longer time honestly ). And if people complain about SIB eing back in the current etlist, that makes me sad. Easily one of the best songs in the setlist and it deserves to stay. But I can't agree that this setlist is better. I actually enjoy One More Light but this set lacks energy. Most of the time rock shows are better when you can rock. Find away to mix energy with slow songs. Bring back songs like Rebellion, Blackout, Given Up, Wretches and Kings, and Runaway. You still have OML songs and you have energy in the setlist. I think that's why I enjoy Carnivores setlist so much is because even though the songs were shortened it was non-stop energy for 90% of the show. Hell, Living Things is my favorite Linkin Park album which only has 3 songs that are heavy so I'm not a "LP has to be heavy" band but just make the show fun to rock to is all I ask. and don't get me wrong, I don't dislike this current setlist it could just be so much better. I basically stated all my opinions replying to the quote above this one but I just wanted to say that you do have valid points. I know personally at my show people were rocking to GATS and the crowd was non-stop energy. Songs being full length would have been better but I wouldn't drop any of the songs they were playing. I wish Linkin Park could play longer like some large name acts who have been around forever do. 2012 and 2007 had amazing openers as well. I have no complaints about those and would have loved to see them in 2007. Auburn, WA was the first stop of the Project Revolution tour with MCR and I'm sad because I didn't go to concerts back then
  9. Yep, won't surprise me if they almost get booed off the stage at Hellfest If Linkin Park had the Carnivores setlist they would be fine at Hellfest but now, nah. Or Hellfest should have made them play HT in full What?!?!?!?!? The Hunting Party setlist was nearly perfectly. Just add in Breaking the Habit and play Castle of Glass (Studaio version) and you have basically a perfect setlist. Am I hipster then? Carnivores setlist was basically perfect. SO so so much more engery than the setlusts now which is what these sets are lacking and decrease the quality in my opinion. They balanced high energy and heavy songs with softer songs perfectly. They could easily do it again.I actually like OML so them playing songs from it doesn't bother me but taking out songs like Given Up and Rebellion have drastically decreased the quality of the set. And just play Crawling normally for crying out loud. Like Linkin Park could never start a set better than this ever: 01. Mashup Intro #2 02. Guilty All The Same 03. Given Up 04. Points Of Authority 05. One Step Closer 06. Blackout 07. Papercut 08. Rebellion 09. Runaway 10. Wastelands Ten straight heavy hitting bangers!
  10. TALKING TO MYSELF If Sorry For Now doesn't get top 2, LPL needs better taste If you want Sorry For Now to survive, switch your vote to Talking to Myself as its a really close race between those two!
  11. I'd rather kill that song than any of the HT/M/MTM/ATS songs they play
  12. One More Light is my second favorite. Both songs have already made it into my top 10 LP songs of all time.
  13. Mike said the new songs won't replace the old songs. Get rid of Wastelands for Sharp Edges Or get rid of another OML for Sharp Edges. Keep Crawling.
  14. INVISIBLE Sorry For Now is easily the best song, what are you guys smoking You mean Talking To Myself
  15. INVISIBLE Ban everyone saying Sharp Edges. WAY WAY WAY better than Invisible that should have been eliminated second
  16. Just read this entire post. Well written and very insightful. Good job! I'm excited to see what the presumably new setlist will be
  17. Do you even know why THP didn't go #1? It went #3 because Linkin Park released the same week as Lana Del Rey and Sam Smith. Both two highly successful artists. Any other week and THP would have gone #1. Obviously Linkin Park didn't care enough to push their release date back. One time Kanye Chesney released against Kanye West and 50 Cent and said "Bring on the challenge." He then proceeded to go #3 when his albums usually go #1. It happens.
  18. http://hitsdailydouble.com/sales_plus_streaming Just have to wait for the official Billboard list on Monday but OML ending up passing Kendrick to go #1!!!!!
  19. That was a fantastic performance I thought. Chester sounded on point! I wish they would have played Sorry For Now instead of Invisible and played One More Light instead of Good Goodbye or Battle Symphony though. Other than that, no complaints! Official setlist for anyone who wants to look at it: 1. Numb 2. Invisible 3. Burn It Down 4. Heavy 5. In the End 6. Talking to Myself 7. Battle Symphony 8. New Divide 9. Good Goodbye 10. Leave Out All the Rest 11. Somewhere I Belong 12. What I've Done
  20. Thanks! I figured they would switch it up for the album release show but I guess not.
