I really don't like the forcefulness of crypto-minded people, and unfortunately this is something that I'm seeing from Mike.

Here's another stance: why can't I just not give a fuck about NFT's and that be okay? Why can't NFT circle-jerkers be okay that other people don't want to get involved? If you're personally really raking it in, then why are you so desperate for EVERYONE to get involved?! Starting to sound like those spam adverts you get... "see how this single mum makes £250,000 per WEEK in your area!!"

So far, 1212 is my favourite. Most unique one so far - feels like a different track for the first couple of mins!

“My friend Sean”, I don’t know him. Anyway, I personally don’t care much about this version or the date (with all the obvious due respect to the poor Benish, God bless him). 
Don’t get why everything Grey Daze does gets scrutinized in every single aspect and harshly criticized, just listen to the song if you enjoy it or ignore it if you don’t like it, that’s my POV. 

Well I do quite like it. And don't take my 'your friend' comment too seriously - just my sense of humour.

I just think Sean's a dick.

Do you really care THAT much ? I agree they should have called it “1997 version/ take/whatever, but is that really important? 

When it’s a song that you specifically finished and updated because your friend died of cancer, then probably yeah.

in short, your friend Sean is full of shit man.

Mess with Em', messed, yes I hope you invested

I’m hearing “mess with MS, yes, I hope you invested”

also could imagine him change it to mess with NFT’s in the future… :’)

GD posted on FB this is their 1997 demo…

imagine being that oblivious about your own music. 🤦‍♂️

Please fix the link

You fix it.

I have the physical clean version somewhere, it’s an interesting listen as Mike went through some good efforts in censoring it, giving some alternative lines rather than just muting like in Petrified.

Who are Grey Daze?

If anyone wants to share this album with me, that would be great! If not I’ll purchase it this Friday 😊 I worked this tour with the band so would be nice to have for nostalgia reasons.

At this point there's already so much stuff out there that it's actually boring and hard to keep up. 

Calm down hun, there’s still more different versions of the Grey Daze vinyl than there are Mike tracks! 
 

(I’m obviously kidding around 😊)

Not sure how these decisions are made, but they could have done this for ATS with new artwork since HT20 completely overshadowed ATS’ 10th anniversary lol

I get the feeling it’s because Meteora is generally harder to find on vinyl these days.

Anybody have a clue what the transition from Don't Stay to Somewhere I Belong is? It almost sounds like a clip from a countdown or something

I’m fairly certain it’s sampled from something by the band X-Japan - I can’t really comment on exactly what as it’s been many, many years since I last listened, but I’ll try to figure it out. 

Another reason why it’s not a cash grab - and this is something I learned since getting into niche perfumes and colognes:

it’s far easier to sell 20 items for $10 each, than 1 item for $200.

if this was cheaper, it would be easier for them to sell more and their profits would possibly double due to high volume sales rather than higher profit markets, but they’re selling it for what it’s actually worth (or better) - and I think of it as an integrity move.

Keep in mind: The Be Yourself Jam IS Pictureboard

Yeah, we know haha. I have the full song with vocals, a lot of people do.

So Mike just confirmed this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_hXLANyHl4

as pictureboard.

 

We have finally found one of the most elusive linkin park songs!

This is just a remake of it. The Xero version of Pictureboard leaked recently. If you want it, just send me a PM.

Did we not get the sample from PB in one of those gear auction things? I may be remembering wrong though...

I’ve tried emailing the oldcomp@linkinpark.com but it bounces.

Black Thought truly is a beast. I have so much love for The Roots.

Correct me if I’m wrong (Astat will know) but LP used to mix most of their guitar tracks to be most prominent in their centre channel - so turning down the centre channel in general should bring down the guitar volume.

A sports team wouldn't use photos of one of their players playing for another team to promote themselves. A movie wouldn't use footage of its lead actor from another movie to promote itself.

 

A band shouldn't use photos/footage of its lead singer performing for another band to promote themselves. Particularly when said "other band" is one of the biggest rock groups of the last 20 years, and your dead singer is the only member of your band who isn't a fucking nobody.

Hilariously, the amount of shit they talk about LP and yet they have to use an LP photo to sell their shit...

The 'We are' vocals on Technical Difficulties are from Brandon Belsky, iirc.

tl;dr

No We Major neither!

I'm obviously kidding...

Thoughts on the end of the M2M Tour?

The only thought I have regarding this is that it wasn't only the end of the MTM tour, but the end of Geki's spirit. RIP Geki's spirit.
