Hm, interesting. I'm a fan of the Gaga but this is definitely disappointing to hear. At least LP have their hearts in the right place, it seems.

I suppose not. Could anyone just recap it, then?

I'm curious as to what it says too, but most likely it'd be against the rules to post it here. LPUX is something you pay for, after all. Even the newsletters.

Thanks, Mark!

I'm getting what I can only assume is Neon Trees performing. Edit: Sooooooo Skype?

Possibly your firewall or some other configuration settings. Do you get an error code at all?

Wow, MFR will be really happy when they get the donation.

Aha, so it WAS 3D!

Yes, quoted for truth.

Those are great. I especially enjoyed the other one with the Transformer and a girl. Ah, well. Exactly, what's the point of these rules if they won't make sure they're enforced? And it definitely seems like they didn't look through all the submissions if they picked this one...it wasn't bad, it just obviously wasn't the best, or well-suited to be the cover really.

Actually, it wouldn't have been that difficult. Let's say they went through and picked 1 piece of artwork and chose 9 runner-ups or so. All they'd need to do is look through the artist's gallery (not very difficult) to see whether there were other entries. If there were multiple entries, then that person would be disqualified, and they could repeat the process with the runner-ups. If they weren't going to enforce the rules, then they simply could have not had the rule in the first place. Then no one would be complaining (well, they'd probably complain about the bad quality or whatever).

I've already stated my views on Facebook (as Will) and Twitter; a lot of artists may have had many different ideas for the Iridescent artwork, but according to the rules they had to choose one and go with that. This individual uploaded ALL his ideas, which gave him more of a chance than everyone else to be spotted and chosen. The fact that the judges of the contest didn't enforce the rules is really a shame because there were a lot of good alternatives there by people who DID follow the rules.

Awesome! Wow this is looking like a great show. Shame about the video screens though, hmm.

Anyone from LPL go? I'm curious to hear a description of the Moscow intro and Energy Up version, like many of us are.

Yep, more proof that Chester has amazing capabilities in singing and that he can do more than scream, like everyone wants him to do. LOL @ clappers in the audience, though.

Lol what? What did he say to you?

Lol, ATS was nothing like Minutes to Midnight. It was a lot more electronic and had a much different vibe. MTM wishes it was ATS. I love MTM but ATS was just its own beast, it even blew me away. That said, I'm not hoping for this album to be ATS Part 2 either. I'm really enjoying how their recent albums are different from each other, so hopefully this one follows in the same vein of being completely different.

I thought it was all right. It certainly wasn't bad, but I wasn't feeling it that much either.

Pretty much. A Linkin Park show is a Linkin Park show to me. Each one is a gift so I honestly can't care too much about the setlists anyway! Lol

That was fun as hell. Let's both root for Robot Boy again, though we know they won't play it...

Hopefully they rotate, I guess we'll see soon enough.

This is an epic chapter in LP history indeed.

It probably wasn't meant to look all fuzzy like some people said, they're probably fixing it now. I've yet to see what the video looks like on the LP App, is it clearer? Anyway, I thought it was fine, not their best video but I don't think it's their worst. I've always enjoyed their CGI effects, although I have to say I don't quite understand what the actual video is about besides Transformers.

Here's a VH1 link, probably US only, though. http://www.vh1.com/video/linkin-park/658968/iridescent.jhtml

You just described the "In the End" music video!
