  1. I'm really hoping too! But this whole Greatest Hits/New Track is going to bury CC under the radar... 20 years later again
  2. A OML B-side would be as exciting for me as the whole album. Zero interest. PS: Just to make it clear, I'm not against the idea of releasing it, I'm glad if they do because many of you will be happy about it, but for me is uninteresting
  3. You know what would be cool? Instead of putting the regular songs on CD, put some alternate versions that doesn't differ too much from the final version. For example, the Shadow of the Day from iTunes 2013, the ECW mix of One Step Closer... And some live tracks here and there. It highly improbable, but dreaming is for free
  4. Yeah, but it's a fast and easy way to consume any music you like. That's why it's so popular nowadays
  5. How much do you have to spend to get the entire Meteora 20 on vinyl?
  6. A "best of" from rehearsal would be great. We don't need 5 identical versions of What I've Done, but the best take of Faint, Pushing Me Away... I'd like that.
  7. That's right, sometimes fans feedback is positive, although I feel that, in other times, we feel a little bit entitled. The latest LPU CDs gave me the feeling that they were made as an contractual obligation, not because they really wanted to share something with us. The LPU Sixteen was barring the bottom of the barrel for me. A back to OG LPUs would have been nice, specially after the death of DSPs. But, you know, you can't just make all fans happy all the time. Being this Already Over campaign a great example.
  8. The LPU8 pissed me off completely. I was 17 at the time and didn't got the joke, but it prepared me for better jokes like Recharged.
  9. I don't know what's the point of so many remixes/videogame scores/whatever of AO, but for sure he's becoming relevant again. I rather have this heated discussions about a track than see this forum become a nuclear wasteland like between 2021-2022, where we had ZERO activity from Mike and the band (yes, he produced a few tracks for indie artists, but you get the point). I miss those shitstorms, they were funny and helped to keep the fanbase alive. LP might take one or two suggestions from hardcore fans, but it's not like our discussions affected the band's trajectory. For me, keep releasing stuff Mike, whatever it is.
  10. Really???? Saw them more invested during this last anniversary than in 2020, which was kind of depressing
  11. This is one of the topics that can easily and spectacularly backlash if something finally happen, but what the hell, let's gamble. As the title says, while I'd love to have a new reissue, I've got a feeling that this anniversary is basically going to be ignored, but there's various factors that make me think that. 1. Another reissue, so soon? Mike and Warner knows that the box sets are a risky product. They are expensive to produce and not everyone is willing to pay 200 euros, dollars, pounds, for those. Making another reissue could be seen a cashgrab from the outside and not something special that happens every few years and worth investing your money in. 2. Forget about boxsets, lower the bar. For now, both boxsets have been a success thanks to nostalgia and tons of discarded material to choose from. While nostalgia for Numb/Encore could be translated to some selling (basically, people lurking the LPLive forums), there's not much to include. The original 99 problems/1step klsr? 99 problems/don't stay? We could run our imagination wild and thinking about thousands of remixes, but the truth is Mike is quite picky when it comes to choosing remixes (except for 2013...). So any b-side besides the ones we know would be undone remixes and boring beats. And even in the best scenario possible, a new remix that melts our face off... Still a remix. The main appeal of the boxsets has been the newer tracks, the possibility of hearing Chester once again, that kind of excitement isn't going to happen with a mash up. Lowering the bar means something more conventional. CD/DVD with a full show, perhaps 2CDs/DVD... Nothing too fancy, and I'll be very grateful for that. 3. Copyright is the name of the game. Once we've thrown out of the window the boxset, we have to face another issue. We all know that when it comes to Jay Z and its label (which I think is Roc Nation), dealing with royalties, copyright and all that jazz is a living hell. Not because Jay Z doesn't want to collaborate with the band, it's just that this business is tricky when it comes down to split the money. Let alone of they decide to include something from the Live 8 Is it worthy all of this headache just for a small reissue made for hardcore fans? The band cares about its fans, but I'm afraid the answer is no, they gave us huge amounts of material this past 3 years. As many of you have said, best we can hope for is a YouTube video from the first five songs of the Roxy show, but we will have to wait if Warner is generous enough and allows it. Now is the time in the comments when you type that I'm fucking wrong. I hope to be...
  12. And no Jay Z in the set. PS: I love Collision Course but I don't like a half cooked Numb/Encore and Jigga What/Faint taking the place of the original song
  13. For those people even Underground 8 is the ultimate proof of his suicidal thoughts
  14. I don't think they'll sacrifice a proper MTM show from 07-08 for a in-between-eras show, even though we're craving for it. Hope they prove me wrong. I just have little hope about it
  15. Dumb question, but how did you guys realized that it wasn't Hamburg? Could be from any February/March 03 show or just from the ones there aren't any recordings to check?
  16. Two questions: Is there any professional recording of MFR 2005? Not saying a Rock am Ring 04 / Milton Keynes 08 kind of, but somewhat like Veterans Stadium 03, Fillmore 01... A bare bones pro shot, I mean. Any chances to also see the full version of the Live 8? It would be a great time to proper remaster that show, although with the Jay Z songs and the tracks included on the official DVD of the event, must be a legal hell to be released.
  17. Expect a 10 year gap between albums. Not joking.
  18. Woooooooohooooooooo ohoooooooooo
  19. So basically, Brazil 2004 has become LP's fandom favorite urban legend.
  20. I'm sure any of the admins can give you the most accurate answer, but as far as I know, best case scenario just MTV Brazil might had it at some point before delete/lose it
  21. They're not going to lose tons of money if they release a live archive for free. Normal and not hardcore fans doesn't care for one specific performance like us, give them some unreleased studio tracks and it will blow away streaming services, like it happened with Lost. But "In the End (Live at Summer Sonic 2006)" isn't going to have 16 million streams in Spotify, for sure.
