I hope there is a run of heavy songs at the end...it's so mellow. Started cool. Middle is a huge drag.

Setlist is all over the fucking place. I like Talking To Myself better than the other new songs by a lot.

First repeat USA opener?

I have the stream working just fine. Can't find a good way to record it, having some trouble with VLC And OPS.

I thought the site had crashed but it's just it isn't loading using the VPN. Maybe there's a workaround somewhere. See what you guys can figure out for the next few hours.

Correct on the timing. 8:30pm EST, 5:30pm PST. Someone will upload it if it gets recorded. What LP webcast hasn't been uploaded online? None. But I can't get Vorterix to work right now using the Hola VPN. Site doesn't load for me at all. It works when I am browsing from the USA, but of course the webcast isn't viewable.

I'll risk it just for the webcast. Super super easy to set up, just add the extension and click Argentina. 21:30 is 9:30pm Argentina time, 8:30pm EST.

The Catalyst is in the rehearsal videos too. First time played since August 2013.

Wow a webcast. Most unlikely thing ever.

Hope so. I always hold off because at the last second LP mgmt says no a lot of the time, like the Belgium 2015 show. We will see.

Ouch, that's terrible.

Out of nowhere, here's the Good Goodbye music video!

The solution is to drop Given Up and any songs that give him trouble.

Yeah that's a good point. I don't think we can separate it and have just blue for Hershey, PA but not blue for the name. I'll see what we can do. This is another "first" for this touring cycle....along with many others (the stripped down performances, etc) so it takes us a little bit of time to figure out how to handle certain things lol

I don't think they will rehearse between South America and Europe. I bet they keep the same set for all 22 shows in that period and if they do a rotation it doesn't start until the USA. That's just a guess. I mean they could easily play 3 OML songs in S.A. and 5 in Europe without having to rehearse, but that's quite a bit of time between playing the extra OML songs in rehearsals, skipping S.A. and then taking them to Europe. Just my 2 cents.

I put Hershey, Uncasville and Oklahoma City as for the make up shows because those are really non traditional markets for LP to play in the summer. We had a staff discussion on it but we're up to go either way - normal show or "rescheduled". LP rarely "reschedules" a show officially, but we typically put the next show in the city after a canceled show as blue. What do you think? They canceled Hershey and Uncasville, along with Rocklahoma. I don't see them playing those cities at all if that canceled 2015 tour had been successfully completed. We did the same for Switzerland 2008 -> 2009, for example. The difference here is that there was an entire year off. Thoughts?

I had several friends in attendance. It was filmed for future release so maybe Invisible is another single down the road.

Wow Wu Tang Clan. Why couldn't they get these acts all together for a stadium tour?

Here's the moment we've been waiting for since fall 2015 - the kickoff of a brand new Linkin Park tour. The band heads to South America this weekend to play a total of four shows across the continent. Up first is Buenos Aires, Argentina, kicking off the mini tour, on May 6th! Linkin Park will headline Maximus Festival at Estadio Cubierto de Tecnópolis, playing after Rob Zombie and Slayer. This will be the first full band Linkin Park show since November 15, 2015 - the longest break in the band's history between shows. They took all of 2016 off, another first, to record the album. The South American Tour encompasses four shows in four countries across eight day. While this isn't the largest South American Tour that they've done as 2012 had five shows, this is the first time LP has played four countries on the tour. Mainly this is because they are returning to Santiago, Chile for the first time since 2010 as well as playing their first show ever in Lima, Peru. The Buenos Aires and São Paulo, Brazil shows are a part of Maximus Festival and are the first and last shows, respectively, of the tour. Now, a look at Buenos Aires. Linkin Park has performed there twice before, so this will be their third show in the country. The first show came in 2010 when they debuted the full headlining setlist for A Thousand Suns, giving live debuts to (Empty Spaces), When They Come For Me, Wisdom Justice, & Love, and The Messenger. This show was a headlining performance at Estadio José Amalfitani. In 2012, the band returned, once again to kick off the South American Tour, at Estadio G.E.B.A. almost exactly two years after their first show in Buenos Aires. The popular set with A Place For My Head opening was played and something wild at that show is that New Divide was aborted mid-song due to the crowd being so rowdy and the band having to stop! There were heavy rumors for Argentina to get a 2014 show too, as dates were being leaked by promoters, but they couldn't get the deal done at the end of the day unfortunately. What has Linkin Park been up to earlier this year? In February, March, and April, they performed a series of promotional shows for Heavy and One More Light. They played both "stripped down" with Mike and Chester (and sometimes Brad or a guest on Heavy) as well as a few full band performances of Heavy, like at James Corden and at ECHO. So what can we expect for this show and setlist? Mike mentioned in March that Linkin Park will be performing five new songs from One More Light. We already know that Heavy and Good Goodbye will be in the setlist, as we've see them perform Heavy twice on television already and Good Goodbye was just rehearsed and broadcasted on the Linkin Park Facebook page. Mike debuted a new verse on the song and there is also a brand new extended intro, so the song will be in a much different form live. Other songs we saw Linkin Park post on social media throughout their recent rehearsal day that will be in the setlist include Lost in the Echo (possibly the first full song performance since January 2014), Wastelands, Burn It Down, and what looks like Bleed It Out closing the show again. So what other songs will be played from One More Light? At a private Warner Bros. Records party in March, LP played Talking To Myself and One More Light (song) both in stripped down forms. Both of these songs sound great. But just before that, Linkin Park debuted Invisible in full band form at James Corden, but that song's performance has not been aired or released yet. In fact, no recordings at all have surfaced of that performance and we aren't even sure what the song sounds like. Add in the fact that Battle Symphony has been played stripped down with Mike and Chester....aaaand we're looking at six songs from the album that have been played in some form. Six is more than five, so we could see Heavy, Battle Symphony, Good Goodbye and any two of these three - Invisible, Talking To Myself, and One More Light (song)....or we could even see something else played off of the album that hasn't been debuted yet in any form. Linkin Park started rehearsing EARLY for this world tour. Due to their promotional schedule taking up a lot of time in February, March, and April, they kicked off world tour rehearsals all the way back in January, so they should be very familiar with this new setlist as it has been planned out for quite a while. As far as what else to expect... Mike in an LPU chat a month ago mentioned that they might play the full version of Leave Out All The Rest in the set. This could possibly be a nod to the 10 year anniversary of Minutes To Midnight which is happening this month as well. Lastly, Chuck D from Prophets of Rage stopped by the band's rehearsals and Prophets is on the bill for this show.... could we see a possible collaboration? There is no webcast for this one, so We will update you on a webcast (if it ends up happening), but stay tuned to our social media and site throughout the day as we update you with the setlist, pictures, and videos! We might set a new page view record for the views on this one... the current holder of it is Tucson, AZ 2014, the kickoff show on The Hunting Party World Tour at over 17,300+ views. The Buenos Aires page has over 1,100 and the show day isn't even here yet. Who is heading to the show? For those of you not going, what do you think the new set will have in it? Lost in the Echo is already a surprise, but there could be more in store too. After South America, Linkin Park keeps right on going and returns to the United States for several promotional appearances when One More Light is released - May 18th at Jimmy Kimmel Live in Los Angeles, CA and May 19th at CBS's SPF in Las Vegas, NV. Then, an eighteen show tour of Europe kicks off in early June with a mixture of festival shows and arena shows.

Indeed. A lot of the core fanbase is not pleased with the sound on the album, I mean just look at the threads for Heavy and the other songs. I think that has to do with it.

Good guess. Blink is booked 8/4 at Lollapalooza I think? We will see. Whenever they announce New York I bet they announce Blink for something. The Blink fan I am talking to says with 100% certainty their management says they are "playing with Linkin Park" this summer.

2007 was the club show. They usually do like 6~ songs for JKL on the outdoor stage.
