Back in the middle of summer 2001, Linkin Park was rocking on Ozzfest where they had a 30 minute set in the middle of the day playing to a bunch of metal heads. About halfway through that tour, LP stopped in Cleveland, Ohio to perform at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's summer concert series. The crowd was really rowdy... right in the middle of the main building (surprising spot to put the show, honestly)... and LP even included a deep cut of 'High Voltage' in the set for the show.
A twenty minute special of this performance was aired later that month (August 2001), a recording you are likely very familiar with.
However, only a few songs were included. 'With You', 'High Voltage', 'Crawling', 'In The End', 'Forgotten', and 'One Step Closer' were the only songs broadcasted along with a few clips of an interview with the band. In the background of the interview, you can hear parts of other songs, so we knew all this time that more songs had been performed. We just had no idea what the actual set was.
It isn't every day that a setlist from over 18 years ago surfaces. Thanks to the hard work by our friend Felipeintheend, he contacted the RaRHoF and got the full setlist for the show for us!
