Well Songs From The Underground was 8 songs, and 7 had been previously released. Only Hunger Strike was new, right?

Artofficial I bet is Joe since Joe scratches on the track and Mike mentions him. 007 is the SOB manager - my guess. Not sure on backing vocals. Who doubles the vocal on Drop? (That's ridiculous!) line.

drop lyrics. I need help with a few parts. I think he says kazinsky from star trek, not kadinsky the russian artist. hi we're back kenji, artofficial rapology 13 why do these people have to get in my way i'm losing more and more pity for idiots every day say what you want about my outlook, i'm pessimistic but you're the one who watches jerry springer _______ this shit just the other day I saw my neighbor on the show cause her cracksmoking kids were fucking a dog when she came home from work and it was her beastility videotapes and crack rock that gave them all the ideas in the first place not even worst case scenario, it's everywhere I turn rap records still coming out talking about how they got money to burn and joe can't get his turntables fixed and this hunchback repair man with a hairlip is a fucking lunatic when all we gotta do is fix the AC cord that blew out and this dude's charging us seventy two bucks to take the screws out (that's ridiculous) i'm fed up and i'm doing all i can do to move to a deserted island and make my own shit out of coconuts and bamboo the world's nothing but a can full of idiots the world's nothing but a basket full of stupids the world's nothing but a bucket full of morons i don't wanna talk to you so don't look at me the world's nothing but a can full of idiots the world's nothing but a basket full of stupids the world's nothing but a bucket full of morons i don't wanna talk to you so don't look at me now i'm starting that kazinsky (felt?) i had a good point my grandpa's popping valium and viagra, smoking joints cause the doctor said it would cure his anxiety attacks but the reason he's so anxious is he's doing all that smack and my cousin pete the phone sex freak went to vegas with one of the operators and she drove off in his mercedes and he went around town alone and he gambled all his cheddar now he and grandpa sit at home and shoot heroin together but that's what happens in a world of heathenists and heretics teachers get paid less than cops and psychotherapists cause it's pretty damn important to give you a ticket for a headlight so you can get home safe and visit charles manson's website or see the shrink to get your head right or get on the road and get hit by a slobbering drunk driver running a red light or get murdered by mr. green in the alley with a lead pipe or sing the chorus because it's alright the world's nothing but a can full of idiots the world's nothing but a basket full of stupids the world's nothing but a bucket full of morons i don't wanna talk to you so don't look at me the world's nothing but a can full of idiots the world's nothing but a basket full of stupids the world's nothing but a bucket full of morons i don't wanna talk to you so don't look at me

Great post, can't wait to download these. What a find! And thanks for sharing Mike's incorrect statements about the LP 1998 vs 1999 time are well documented. This is why the demos are mislabeled. Chester even confirmed in the NRG interview last month it was 1999. It's a fact that he joined in 1999, not 1998. There is a boat load of evidence for this; I'm surprised it's still being disputed.

Tickets on sale March 15th if anyone wants to go.

The real question is who decided it was a good idea for Chester to film fight scenes right before a world tour? Kidding.

Long way to fly to do just one TV performance, and they're still rehearsing. Probably a Germany club show somewhere around there.

The ECHO Awards in Germany have announced that Linkin Park and Kiiara will be performing Heavy on April 6th for ECHO 2017. The filming takes place on the 6th in Berlin and it will air the next day on the 7th. More information can be found in the ECHO press release. The band has received three ECHO Awards in the past but this is their first performance at the awards show. Thanks to our friends BlackChester.de for the heads up!

So the gap between Heavy and One More Light won't be as empty as we think. Along with Invisible being rumored for release later this month, Mike has now announced on Instagram that Linkin Park will be performing more shows this month. The band has been in extensive rehearsals since late January and we now know that they have worked up at least four new songs - Heavy, Invisible, One More Light, and Talking To Myself. To start the video, he says he just came from rehearsals on March 7th. Mostly he goes back and forth with fans about random things, but he mentions he saw the video clips of One More Light and Talking To Myself from the Warner Bros. Party on the 6th that fans were talking about online. Since nothing has been announced officially, these could be surprise performances. Everything is unknown, from what continents they'll play on, if they'll be full shows or stripped down performances, or when they will even be. We'll be sure to update everyone when we get information. By the way, give Linkinpedia a visit this week as the team has been hard at work on new album pages for One More Light and the songs included on it.

+1. Not sure how it leaked but what a coincidence it leaked when LPC suddenly obtained it.

From MusicWeek.com: "Mike Shinoda, vocalist and producer with US rock outfit Linkin Park, will deliver a keynote address at this year’s MIDEM. Taking place in Cannes from June 6-9, MIDEM is the world’s biggest international music business trade event. On Wednesday, June 7, Shinoda will give a keynote address based around technological innovation across the music industry. He will also take part in the Midemlab startup competition as a jury member, whereby a selection of music start-ups present their ideas across four main business fields: Music Creation & Education; Music Discovery & Distribution; Marketing & Data/Analytics; Experiential Technologies, covering VR/AR, high-resolution, IoT and hardware." Linkin Park begins their European Tour by headlining Download Paris in Brétigny-sur-Orge, France on June 9th, so Mike's address will be two days prior.

Exactly how I feel. Heavy is just awful, but these songs sound quite a bit better.

I like this style they are playing in. They should do more stuff like this, even around the USA (wishful thinking). I believe they will release Invisible later this month. Just my guess.

LOATR live is a good song. That'd be a welcome change of pace from this medley. It's the 10 year anniversary of MTM. Rotate LOATR, In Pieces and VDay in 3 setlists.

There can also be samples in them like Pictureboard, so they'd have to pay to clear the sample.

Would have been cool if they said "We just wrapped up a Mercedes shoot, now we're about to play a short set to the first 250 people who show up by 8pm" or something haha

I agree. He was cool in this interview but then again, he said he was on drugs ages ago and people like that really want money, obviously. Truly a pathetic situation to sell those CDs on eBay. Maybe he has turned it around now. lol he says Phoenix is a great bass player, but in our Grey Daze story says he plays better than him. Funny.

Bump for 2017. 876 Linkin Park shows to start 2017. List of everything counted vs not counted. Shows with the strikethrough are not counted as Linkin Park full band performances intended for the public. 2017.02.16 NRG Studios 2017.02.27 James Corden - Show #877 2017.02.28 Mercedes-AMG Shoot 2017.03.06 Warner Bros. Party 2017.04.06 ECHO 2017 Currently the number of performances on the 2017 page is 18 and that number is correct/accurate.

As many of you have seen on social media, Linkin Park was set up at The Whisky in West Hollywood, CA today. Mercedes-AMG is turning 50 years old and is doing an all-day shoot with Linkin Park for some promotion. The final product of whatever they are filming for is unknown, but we'll likely see the band featured in some sort of Mercedes video soon. Pictures can be seen here and here. Filming took place backstage, on the roof, and on the actual stage inside. Linkin Park posted on Snapchat and YouTube to show clips of the event. One interesting thing shown by the clip on Snapchat is that the band performed the Reggae Version of Burn It Down again. This version has been played twice (KROQ 2013 Rehearsal for Sunset Strip Music Festival and the Amsterdam 2014 LPU Summit) before. As of right now, it is unknown if they performed anything else for the shoot. We have added a show page, similar to the shooting of Powerless video on stage at the Berlin 2012 show. Of course, this doesn't factor into the LP show count / number of shows performed in 2017. That list is getting pretty technical...but we're slowly approaching Linkin Park's 1,000th show as a band. Xero performed at The Whisky at least three known times, and Linkin Park performed there at least once (July 2000) after their name change from Hybrid Theory. This is the first known Linkin Park-related event at The Whisky since that time.

Invisible is confirmed by the attendees, we'll add it to the show page.

Isn't the North American announcement usually in May?

He was on drugs and was probably just obnoxious. I think for a while he accused Sean of messing up passes for an LP show or something. Idk, there is a lot of drama amongst the members of that band.
