WHO LET THEM COOK? After another Rock am Ring for the ages, Linkin Park are still in action as they head over to headline the sister festival Rock im Park in Nürnburg, Germany on June 7, 2026! Rock im Park is perhaps just as important to Linkin Park as Rock am Ring, but it gets the short end of the stick for fans being that it generally is not livestreamed. That being said, Linkin Park has performed there just as many times as they have Rock am Ring, though surprisingly not all in the same year. The band doubled up on performances at Rock im Park 2001, performing their scheduled set earlier in the day which mostly mirrored their Rock am Ring 2001 set, missing some of the shenanigans. This came complete with the 'With You' and 'Runaway' opening combo and goods like 'By Myself' and 'Forgotten.' The band were asked to perform a second set that same day once Slipknot ended up cancelling their appearance last minute, and played pretty much the same songs in a different order (they didn't have much else they could play), moving heavier songs up in the set, opening with 'A Place For My Head' and 'Forgotten' and even throwing a tease of 'Sweet Child O' Mine' by Guns N' Roses' into the mix. For their first Rock im-performances, the band really showed up ready to work! Linkin Park's second performance at Rock im Park 2001 on June 2, 2001, filling in for Slipknot. The crowd initial boo'ed the band, but by the end of the set, Linkin Park had completely won them over. Like with Rock am Ring 2003, the band's first headlining appearance at the festival was slated for Rock im Park 2003, but the entire 2003 European Tour was cancelled to to Chester being hospitalized with severe pains. And while they played a legendary set at Rock am Ring 2004, the band had to skip Rock im Park 2004 due to obligations headlining the Download festival in England (due to the fact they played two shows in 2001, the count of performances at Rock im Park and Rock am Ring still match up). The band finally returned to the Nürnburg stage at Rock im Park 2007, a day following their legendary appearance at Rock am Ring 2007. The setlist was much the same, with songs like 'Leave Out All The Rest' and 'The Little Things Give You Away' being freshly dusted off on this first full leg of the tour and songs like 'Given Up' and 'No More Sorrow' (which had a new Brad Guitar Tease intro here) continued to impress the crowds. It was at this show that the band let the crowd sing the whole bridge of 'In The End' for the first time, too - a tradition that stands still to this day! The band returned for Rock im Park 2012, opening their set with a vicious combo of 'A Place For My Head' (with a brand new show-opening intro that had the fanbase in a headlock back in the day), 'Given Up,' 'Faint,' 'With You,' 'Runaway,' and 'From The Inside' - a true masterclass in epic openings. 'Numb,' which featured much earlier in the set than it normally does, had a false start on it while 'Breaking The Habit' featured a keyboard outro transition that segued into the Ballad Medley. The band brought up a fan named Richard - who had played the unique 'There They Go' and 'Faint' mashup on guitar with the band at their Berlin 2007 performance - during 'Bleed It Out' to propose to his girlfriend before the band kicked into a cover of the Beastie Boys' 'Sabotage.' The band's most recent outing at the festival was at Rock im Park 2014, where The Hunting Party songs like 'Guilty All The Same' and 'Wastelands' got a chance to shine. Other rare tracks like 'A Light That Never Comes' and 'Robot Boy' (the latter in the form of an interlude) also made appearances in this set. With a healthy history at the festival and a massive Rock am Ring performance behind them, we're sure big things are ahead for this year's festival, too! Footage from Linkin Park's performance at Rock im Park 2012 on June 3, 2012. Now, let's talk about the big guns: Rock am Ring 2026. It takes a lot for Linkin Park to impress the LPLive team nowadays after doing this for nearly 20 years, but yesterday was one of those nights we were blown away. Kicking the show off by announcing their Unshatter documentary (out in theaters soon), the band made sure fans knew this was a spectacle, with both the fans there and the ones watching at home already exploding with excitement. The surprises didn't stop there, as the band did the unthinkable: instead of opening the show with the regular Inception Intro, they whipped out the old Rock am Ring Intro from their 2001 show, right before performing 'With You' for the first time with Emily, Colin, and Alex, and for the first time overall since 2014! This song has been highly requested by fans since Colin mentioned wanting to play it last year - and they really did their homework for it. Complete with all the classic moments from the iconic "come on!" scream at the intro, Emily matching Chester's color scheme from the 2001 show, and the ever-beloved "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Hahn," it was truly a phenomenal performance. And though the band's set was a shortened 90 minute festival one, they packed it full of goods including 'Lying From You,' 'A Place For My Head,' and what might just be the best performance of 'IGYEIH' yet. To top it all off, Mike even threw in a verse of 'Reading My Eyes' over the extended bridge of 'Bleed It Out.' Ending the show with 'Faint' (perhaps as a nod to Rock am Ring 2007), fireworks sounded off as the band finished up their triumphant return to the festival. This really was another classic Linkin Park show in the making, with the band firing off on a cylinders from performance to setlist. Linkin Park's full set from Rock am Ring 2026 on June 5, 2026. This will definitely be another show to add to the legendary Rock am Ring archives! One thing we didn't see much of at Rock am Ring was collaborations - and we know the band has a lot of friends in town for this one. Papa Roach and Architects go on before the band on the Utopia Stage, while Don Broco plays on another. Limp Bizkit's set falls a good 45 minutes after Linkin Park's here as well, and with pictures of the band with Limp Bizkit and Papa Roach members floating around on Instagram now, maybe there could be some magic made onstage between them all! With a shortened festival set again on our hands, its unlikely we'll see too many rotations in the set, but we'll definitely see some flip ups - maybe some different Hybrid Theory songs like 'Crawling' or 'Points Of Authority,' and likely a different heavy song - 'Given Up' is still waiting for an appearance in Europe. The biggest question on our minds is whether or not the trailer + Rock am Ring Intro + 'With You' opening combination sticks around for the following shows, or if that was just a Rock am Ring special. We'll find out tonight! Who's going to the show? After this festival, the band get back on to headlining stadiums with a show in Vienna, Austria and two in Munich, Germany - I'm parked up in Vienna for the weekend ready for the action, so I will be seeing you there! Weatherman Rogue Soul reporting a pretty beautiful day ahead for the festival, if not a bit cool with temperatures up to 22°C and down to 9°C. Dress appropriately and get to have a lot of fun with a lot of great music! As always, we are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 and 2026 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more. If you have anything to contribute, check out our thread on the matter and submit your pictures directly to us - if they meet the mark we will get them uploaded to the show pages and credit you (and also blur your information out where applicable)! Last year we launched an LPLive Newsletter for those looking for more of a TL;DR version of what's going on with the tour than my pre-show posts - we'll be sending it out every couple of weeks so as to not flood your inbox, and will be bringing you an overview of both tour and general news updates, so be sure to sign up if you haven't already! We'll have you covered on everything the band does at this show and everything they whip out for the rest of the year, so be sure to sign up on the forums and follow us on social media (Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook)!

There comes a moment in every Linkin Park fan's life where we ask ourselves: is it time to go to Rock am Ring? For me, today is not that day. For many others, however, today will be one for the record books. Linkin Park returns to headline Rock am Ring in Nürburg, Germany for the first time in eleven years and the first time since their comeback today, June 5, 2026! Linkin Park and Rock am Ring are just two things that go hand in hand, and that's for good reason. Over the years, the band has time and time again delivered career-defining performances at the festival, and it's time to see if history repeats itself on the band's sixth time there. The story all began back in 2001 on the Hybrid Theory World Tour, before they had reached headliner status and playing in the middle of the day. While that may be the case, the band demanded the crowd's attention as they proceeded to perform one of their greatest shows of the era. With everything from an iconic 'With You' and 'Runaway' show opener, album cuts like 'By Myself' and 'Forgotten,' and even pre-Hybrid Theory tracks including 'High Voltage,' 'And One,' and unbelievably even a bit of 'Pictureboard' as an instrumental interlude - before we had known what the song actually sounded like with the Hybrid Theory 20th Anniversary release, the performance was known as the 'In Yourself/Be Yourself' interlude. The case was finally cracked in 2020 with the boxset release, making an already historic show that much more insane. Before ending things off with an electrifying 'One Step Closer,' the band even jammed a bit of Guns N' Roses' 'Sweet Child O' Mine.' There's pretty much nothing this set doesn't have for an early Linkin Park show! Linkin Park's full performance from their very first Rock am Ring appearance on June 4, 2001. While they were only beginning their world takeover, with performances like these you can tell that everything was already set in stone. Linkin Park's next appearance at Rock am Ring was meant to kick off their headlining history, but unfortunately that had to wait just a bit longer - Rock am Ring 2003 was set to kick off the Meteora European Tour in June 2003, but the whole tour was cancelled just days before the show due to Chester being hospitalized due to severe back and abdominal pains. The band was able to make up their performance for Rock am Ring 2004, another legendary performance from the band seeing them in possibly some of the best form they had ever been in. Now with two albums and multiple jaunts around the world under their belt, the band burst back into Rock am Ring with confidence and even more flair. Meteora hits like 'From The Inside' and 'Somewhere I Belong' finally graced the stage while all the old monsters made their way back into the set; 'A Place For My Head' and 'Papercut' included. Multiple of the Meteora-era live classics also snuck their way into this one, including the Hip-Hop Medley featuring 'Step Up,' 'Nobody's Listening,' and 'It's Goin' Down' as well as the band's cover of Nine Inch Nails' 'Wish.' While the band didn't get to fulfill their headlining dreams at this show (Die Toten Hosen were billed above them), they were still able to perform a full set which still gets spoken of to this day. Linkin Park's full set from Rock am Ring 2004 on June 6, 2004. An age old debate: which early era show was more iconic, RaR 2001 or RaR 2004? It was upon their return with Minutes To Midnight that Linkin Park finally got to headline Rock am Ring, with the band's Rock am Ring 2007 performance once again going down in history, but this time as more a legend. The label prevented this show from being webcast, so unlike the previous years there is no full proshot recording of this show. A handful of songs were released on various channels after the fact (and a full audio recording does exist from the crowd), but we are largely missing a good view of the whole show. What we do know is that the band once again brought an insane performance to Rock am Ring, delivering the likes of 'No More Sorrow' and 'What I've Done' upon the crowd while dusting off new songs from the tour like 'Leave Out All The Rest' and 'The Little Things Give You Away.' And while we don't have a full recording, the performance of 'Faint' from this show is widely regarded as one of the best in the song's whole live history, from Chester's crazy screams to the unreal solo from Brad Delson. Linkin Park performing 'Faint' at Rock am Ring 2007 on June 1, 2007. I know for a fact that this is my favorite performance of the song ever - is it yours? The A Thousand Suns World Tour was the first to NOT feature Linkin Park at Rock am Ring, but that was swiftly corrected right at the start of the next tour. The band headlined the festival for the second time on the Living Things World Tour, bringing chaos at Rock am Ring 2012. The brand new setlist featured a lot of revivals of older tracks, including 'With You' (the heftiest revival, haven't being performed for almost six years at that point), 'Runaway,' 'Points Of Authority,' and 'Somewhere I Belong.' 'A Place For My Head' made a massive return as well, becoming the opening song of the night with a new intro to boot. Tracks like 'The Catalyst' and 'Iridescent' (in the form of the Ballad Medley with 'Shadow Of The Day' and 'Leave Out All The Rest') got a moment to shine after their album tour had missed the Rock am Ring stage, as well as two new songs from the upcoming record: 'Burn It Down' and 'Lies Greed Misery.' The band's most recent Rock am Ring excursion was on The Hunting Party World Tour, headlining Rock am Ring 2014. Another huge show full of unforgettable moments, the band performed their new setlist segmented into "acts" at this show, opening on a massive note with 'Guilty All The Same.' The band bounced between interludes and shortened tracks (a huge debate at the time) to stuff as many as they could into one set, and to their credit, they definitely brought a good variety of music to the crowd with these setlists. Even rarer tracks like 'A Light That Never Comes' and a full 'Until It's Gone' (with its short-lived 'No More Sorrow' + 'The Catalyst' mashup intro) had time to shine in the encore. The original Mike Shinoda solo medley (this version being a mashup of 'Wretches and Kings,' the 'Skin To Bone' Recharged remix, and 'Remember The Name') was also performed here, with Mike whipping out a verse of 'Hands Held High' over it - even a rarity to this day! With five unreal performances behind them and a long anticipated sixth just on the horizon - will Rock am Ring 2026 be another one to remember for a long time? Linkin Park's full performance from Rock am Ring 2014 - the last Chester Rock am Ring. Which performance at the festival over the years is your favorite? While the band will be returning to Rock am Ring for the first time in awhile, they've certainly been busy elsewhere in Germany. The band just wrapped up two massive sold out shows at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, and night two was definitely a whole different beast. With 'The Emptiness Machine' with its new extended intro following Inception Intro C ('Burn It Down' lyrics), the show got off to an eruptive start as 'Points Of Authority' made its first appearance on the leg right after. And after missing its first show of the entire tour, 'Somewhere I Belong' returned to close out Act I. 'Cut The Bridge' returned to Europe as well for the first time early in Act II, before 'Lying From You' came in by surprise after 'Waiting For The End.' Mike whipped out multiple 'Step Up' choruses (this seems to be the norm now) and a verse of 'Lift Off' for his solo medley, with Emily joining on drums again during the 'Remember The Name' section. 'Casualty' returned to the set for just the second time in 2026 afterward, with 'One Step Closer' taking out Act II. 'Breaking The Habit' and the shortened piano 'Lost' remained in Act III before 'Stained' rotated in again, two shows in a row but in different spots (and with Emily on keys!). 'Pushing Me Away' made an appearance as the synth intro to 'Overflow,' and 'From The Inside' was the night's final rotation right after. The band once again jammed to Tears For Fears' 'Everybody Wants To Rule The World' spontaneously after 'Numb,' giving up after no one could decide which key to play it in. The night ended with 'In The End' and 'Faint,' a classic old-school combo to sign off an astonishing two sold-out stadium shows in Germany. Rock am Ring holds a lot of history, but does it hold time for some surprises? Despite the comeback and headlining slot, Linkin Park is allotted for a shorter set time than usual, getting the normal festival allotment of 90 minutes, similar to some of the sets they were doing in the summer of last year (e.g. Rock for People, Welcome To Rockville). But even with shorter sets, the band found plenty of time to change things up between shows with rotations and even debuts - 'Let You Fade' was performed for the first time a day after its release as Welcome To Rockville! So nothing is out of the question just yet, though some may say it's too late in the cycle for anything new to happen... But all we're saying is since the band has been experimenting with opening songs, an opening with 'A Place For My Head' would really blow our minds. The band doesn't typically cater their setlists to festivals, but we'd like to think Rock am Ring might be an exception this year. We're still holding out hope that 'With You' or 'Blackout' end up making an appearance before the tour is over - Rock am Ring may be just to spot to bring 'em out of retirement! The only rotation songs missing from the tour after the three shows so far are 'Castle Of Glass' and 'Given Up' - the second of which with its nature as a heavy single might finally get its moment here. Linkin Park opening their second night at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, Germany with Inception Intro C and 'The Emptiness Machine.' With three possible opening songs now ('Somewhere I Belong,' 'The Emptiness Machine,' and 'Lying From You'), do you think the band will keep trying new ones out? As we all hoped and prayed, this show will be livestreamed! The stream will be live via Magenta TV and MagentaMuzik, and will live on magentamuzik.de. According to the company on Instagram it appears that the stream will be available to watch worldwide! In the event it is region-locked to Germany, make sure to prepare a VPN which historically work with these events. Who's going to the show? Weatherman Rogue Soul is spending his day traveling to Austria for the next headlining show so sadly I won't be there, but I can tell you to pack a hoodie or coat because tomorrow is looking chilly and damp with a high of 19°C and a low of 8°C. Not a lot of rain is in the forecast but expect there to be bouts of it throughout the later afternoon. Doesn't look like anything that should stop the fun, though! The band share the bill with a plethora of great artists throughout the day including Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, Architects, Don Broco, Within Temptation, Mastodon, Loathe, and plenty more - the day is absolutely packed, so be sure to catch as many good bands as you can! Linkin Park continues to Rock im Park after this show before continuing the headlining run with shows in Vienna, Austria and two in Munich, Germany - I'll be seeing you at those!

Germany, Germany, Germany. I've had a very fun two days being inside you so far (pause), and the fun isn't stopping yet! The From Zero World Tour's final leg continues with its first of three two-night stands, the first of which will conclude with tonight's second show at Hamburg, Germany's Volksparkstadion on June 3, 2026! Like with the last post, I'll skip the history lesson for what is now our third show in Hamburg this tour (you can read up on Linkin Park's Hamburg history in the 2024 pre-show post), but one fun fact I'd like to share is that yesterday through the afternoon and evening, Linkin Park held a Linkin Pizza event in Hamburg right outside the Grünspan, the site of their very first German concert in January 2001. Stopping by to see a piece of Linkin Park history before grabbing an admittedly quite good slice of pizza and singing karaoke next door with a bunch of Linkin Park fans - all I can say it was a great off-day for the tour for the fans! This all comes after the band performed a huge show for night one at the Volksparkstadion on Monday. Things got spicy immediately, with 'Lying From You' opening the show for the first time ever after Inception Intro B (with 'Iridescent' vocals) introduced the band. Act I continued in generally normal fashion, with 'New Divide' with its Short Moscow Intro making its first appearance in Europe and 'The Emptiness Machine' returning to the closing part of the Act after opening the show in Stockholm, Sweden. 'Somewhere I Belong' notably did not get performed at this show, making it the first time the song, as the staple opener for the majority of the tour, had not featured in a set since the band's return. Act II kept the surprises going, with 'Stained' (featuring Emily playing keys for the first time) as the first rotation and 'A Place For My Head' making an appearance mid-set after 'Waiting For The End.' For his solo medley, Mike whipped out the chorus of 'Step Up' and verse three of 'Until It Breaks' before 'Unshatter' made a welcome appearance as the heavy rotation of the night! In Act III, 'Breaking The Habit' solidified it's spot after the shortened 'Lost,' both making a return on this leg right before 'Good Things Go' rotated in. Act IV didn't feature many crazy surprises with 'Over Each Other' being the rotation song and no real shenanigans during 'Numb.' The show wrapped up with 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' - the latter of which curiously featured 'A Place For My Head' as its bridge verse, even though the actual song was already played. I feel like I could see Mike realize that fact in his head mid-way through the verse BUT, with LPLive in the crowd there can never be too much APFMH, so no complaints here. Linkin Park opening their show at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, Germany on June 1, 2026 with Inception Intro B and 'Lying From You,' the first time they've used the latter as an opener. Night two is always where things get spicy. Though the band has only done two shows so far, they've gotten through a considerable amount of the rotations. Not much is missing from the tour, but songs yet to be rotated in include 'Points Of Authority,' 'Castle Of Glass,' 'Cut The Bridge,' 'From The Inside,' 'Casualty,' and 'Given Up' - and it's very likely we see at least two of these pop up during this show. However, if past precedent is anything to consider, night two is usually where Linkin Park has been bringing out the big guns in terms of deep cuts or debuts on this tour. At the last night two-night stand in Boston, we saw the return of 'Lies Greed Misery' into the setlists, which remains the last song to get an Emily/Alex/Colin debut to date. Still missing from 2024 after the series of revivals this year are 'My December' and 'Friendly Fire' as well, which would both be welcome surprises. Will the band have anything in store for their second night of Hamburg? And not to get anyone's hopes up, but we saw copies of a setlist floating around yesterday that featured a certain song that didn't end up getting played so... if the rumors are true to be believed, we could have some tasty things in store for us in Hamburg once again. Linkin Park performing 'A Place For My Head' live at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, Germany on June 1, 2026. What rotations do they have in store for us for night two? Once again, the band will be supported by two opening acts: first up is Phantogram, an electronic rock project from New York that fills the arena with some ethereal jams. Hits like 'Black Out Days' and 'Fall In Love' will get you both moving and entranced, perhaps in the same way Mike did when listening to Phantogram helped inspire his own song 'What The Words Meant.' Following Phantogram is Clipse, the rap duo consisting of Pusha T and Malice. Delivering powerful bars and rugged instrumentals, the famous duo fill the venue with a sense of urgency and groove as they proceed Linkin Park. As we've been mentioning before, Pusha T has previously collaborated with Linkin Park a number of times, most notably on 'Good Goodbye' from One More Light - will we finally see the album get some representation in the setlist AND some more onstage collabs? Time will tell! Phantogram performing their song 'Black Out Days' at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, Germany on June 1, 2026. Who's going to the show? Myself, AndOne (Jonas), and Jon Barker will all be at the venue ready for another round of action - and this time I'm in the pit, so get ready to get rowdy with me if anything crazy goes down. After some success on Night 1, I'm going to attempt to livestream the show from the LPLive Twitter account again (connection allowing), so stay tuned on that front during the show! I'll remember to turn on comments this time. Weatherman Rogue Soul has boots on the ground and can unfortunately report that tomorrow will be a wet one, with rain forecast throughout the day with a high at 21°C and a low of 15°C (69°F - 59°F for my fellow Americans following along), so bundle up, stay as dry as you can, and get ready to jam! Linkin Park continues their tour from here through Germany with two huge shows headlining Rock am Ring and Rock im Park up next before they head over to Vienna, Austria for more headlining show action. As always, we are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 and 2026 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more. If you have anything to contribute, check out our thread on the matter and submit your pictures directly to us - if they meet the mark we will get them uploaded to the show pages and credit you (and also blur your information out where applicable)!

hello from Hamburg! in my hotel room about to try and get some sleep, but super excited to finally have some Linkin Park Germany experiences. time to see if all the hype was real

The last leg of the From Zero World Tour is off to a flying start! After delivering a plethora of surprises and a strong performance on the opening night, Linkin Park are bringing the tour to their favorite country: that's right, it's Germany time! The band will be playing the first of six shows in the country on Monday, June 1, 2026 in Hamburg, Germany at the Volksparkstadion for their first of two nights in the stadium, in what will likely be their biggest shows in the city yet! This'll be Linkin Park's second (and third) time visiting Hamburg on this tour, with the first being back in 2024, their very first European show of their comeback. Since I ran down the full history lesson and that pre-show post (and I have to start packing...), I'll skip the history lesson today - you can read Linkin Park's Hamburg history here if you want to run back the tapes, though. Long story short, this will be Linkin Park's ninth show in the city (twelfth if we're counting promo performances). Linkin Park's show at the Barclays Arena in September 2024 was a euphoric, legendary night as the band crossed the Atlantic for the first time in seven years. It's easy to remember the feeling of that period of time leading up to From Zero's release - and I'm sure anyone who was at this show in Hamburg can agree. Those early shows were some of the most exciting and unbelievable times, but here we are almost two years later, now familiar with the idea that Linkin Park is back and with almost a whole tour of experience behind them now. The band's setlist in 2024 featured a good handful of older material that didn't quite make it into 2024... but may be back in 2026 (we'll get into that later). Following the band show by show, it's easy to forget how much the set has morphed since back then. Act I kicked off with the familiar Inception Intro A ('Castle Of Glass' theme) into 'Somewhere I Belong,' with the band keeping the old-school action going by following up with 'Crawling,' 'Lying From You,' and 'Points Of Authority.' 'New Divide' with its recently revived Moscow Intro kept the nostalgia going before 'The Emptiness Machine' wrapped up the act with a reminder that this was, in fact, a new era. Act II seems mostly familiar, with less rotation songs but the same staples like 'The Catalyst,' 'Burn It Down,' and Mike's solo medley ('When They Come For Me/Remember The Name'), which at the time didn't feature any extended random verse madness (that was a 2025 addition). Instead of the typical heavy rotation we're used to nowadays, the band played 'Lost In The Echo' as a rotation song before 'Given Up' and 'One Step Closer' brought us to the middle of the show. We were dealing with the 360° stage back then, so at that point the band left the stage so that the crew could rotate the instruments around so that each side of the crowd got to properly see each member. Act III started dramatically, with the shortened piano version of 'Lost' stunning the audience before 'Breaking The Habit' made things even more dramatic. 'What I've Done' wrapped things up, taking us into Act IV, which has perhaps changed the most out of any other part of the set. The 2017 Version of 'Leave Out All The Rest' started things off before the band launched into a heartbreaking acoustic rendition of 'My December,' followed by another emotional performance of the rare 'Friendly Fire,' which remains the only piece of music from the One More Light era to be performed on the From Zero World Tour. The rest of the set was pretty similar to what we have today, though that includes one big surprise: the band premiered 'Heavy Is The Crown' to the whole world in the encore, debuting the song ahead of its release a few days later. The band returned to Europe in a huge fashion back in 2024 in Hamburg, and we're sure 2026 will be even more spectacular! Linkin Park debuting 'Heavy Is The Crown' to the world during the encore of their performance at the Barclays Arena in Hamburg, Germany on September 22, 2024. Linkin Park performed their first show of the leg on May 29 at the 3Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, and as far as tour openers went, this one certainly had the fanbase watching with close eyes. At long last, we had some major changes in the setlist structure, starting right at the beginning! The band opened the show with Inception Intro A (the 'Castle Of Glass' theme) and led into 'The Emptiness Machine' which featured a new extended intro, making it the first full show of the world tour to NOT open with 'Somewhere I Belong' and the first time 'The Emptiness Machine' opened a show since its premiere at the launch show in September 2024. 'Somewhere I Belong' was moved to the end of Act I, swapping spots with 'The Emptiness Machine.' Act II continued the show relatively normally, with 'Lies Greed Misery' and 'Over Each Other' kicking off this leg's rotations. Mike whipped out another medley of verses during his solo medley (Medleyception?), performing parts of 'Step Up' and 'Lift Off' before coming back to 'Remember The Name.' Eagle eyed fans notice the surprises didn't end there, though, as Colin left the drumming duties for 'Remember The Name' up to Emily! After all these shenanigans, the band launched into 'IGYEIH' for the heavy rotation. Act III is where things really got spicy, with 'Breaking The Habit' and the shortened piano version of 'Lost' making their return for the first time since São Paulo 2024 Night Two. 'Let You Fade' was added in right after as well, making it the first time that Act III featured an extra song! The surprises didn't end there, however, as the band launched into 'Lost In The Echo' in Act IV, another revival from 2024 with it being the first performance since São Paulo 2024 Night One! That brings up to three song revivals this year so far, with 'Leave Out All The Rest' making a triumphant return at the end of the last leg in Australia & New Zealand. The band whipped out a Funky Jazz outro to 'Numb' before 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' (with a verse of 'A Place For My Head' in the bridge) wrapped up the main set. The band closed out their show with a heavy triple-hitter of 'Papercut,' 'In The End,' and 'Faint.' With three songs now brought back from the dead (2024) in 2026, and multiple two night stands ahead of us, it's time for the speculation to begin. Hamburg is the first of three two-night stands on this tour (the others being Munich, Germany and Rivas-Vaciamadrid, Spain), so this is likely where things start to get funky. As far as From Zero songs are concerned, 'Cut The Bridge,' 'Good Things Go,' 'Stained,' 'Casualty,' and 'Unshatter' waiting to bat for this European Tour still - it's likely we'll see at least two of these come out for Night One in Hamburg. For our Act I rotations, 'New Divide' and 'Points Of Authority' are waiting in the shadows while 'Castle Of Glass' or even 'From The Inside' could be subbed in for Act II. The heavy rotation could be any of 'Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Casualty,' 'Given Up,' or now even 'Unshatter'! Act III is a big question - will 'Breaking The Habit' be a staple for the rest of the tour while 'Lost' retains its shortened form, or will the full 'Lost' now be in rotation itself? And will 'Let You Fade' remain, or is there a new rotation spot afoot, perhaps with 'Leave Out All The Rest.' 'Lost In The Echo' has a potential spot up for rotation in Act IV as well - perhaps where 'A Place For My Head' or 'From The Inside' could make an appearance? Two songs remain from 2024 that haven't seen the light since yet: 'Friendly Fire' and 'My December.' Perhaps there's room for them now in the expanded Act III? There's a lot of new variables to keep an eye on during the coming shows! And there's always a chance that the band has something new in their back pocket... looking at you, 'With You' and 'Blackout.' Linkin Park performing their song 'Lost In The Echo' at the 3Arena in Stockholm, Sweden on May 29, 2026 for the first time since November 2024! Opening the show will be Clipse and Phantogram. Clipse is the hip-hop duo of Malice and Pusha T., supporting their latest record Let God Sort Em Out. Filled with charged lyricism and dark, atmospheric beats from the likes of 'Art Trumpets' and 'Chains & Whips,' you can expect to see two rap figures some of their most important work on display. Pusha T. previously collaborated with Linkin Park on 'Good Goodbye' (and the 'I'll Be Gone' remix from RECHARGED), so it'd be cool to see him come out and perform with Linkin Park onstage! After Clipse comes Phantogram, bringing more of an alternative, electronic rock vibe to the mix with some of their biggest songs. Opening with 'You Don't Get Me High Anymore,' Phantogram bring lots of energy and mystery as they chug through more hits like 'Black Out Days' and 'Fall In Love.' The band are credited by Mike for inspiring his song 'What The Words Meant,' a bonus track from his Post Traumatic release. It'd be great to see Phantogram get involved with the band onstage too - maybe vocalist Sarah Barthel could join for 'Burn It Down' like Lynn Gunn from PVRIS did! Phanotgram performing their song 'Black Out Days' at the 3Arena in Stockholm, Sweden on May 29, 2026. Who's going to the show? I'm flying out tonight from Newark, NJ for my first trip to Europe ever for all the German headline shows and Vienna, so I hope to see some of you there! Weatherman Rogue Soul will have his boots on the ground for this one, but as of writing it looks like Monday will be a cloudy but warm day in Hamburg, with temperatures ranging from 22°C to 13°C at night (that's 72°F and 55°F for my American ass), so you can dress light and be ready to jam! The band performs their second show at the Volksparkstadion on June 3 before heading off for legendary headlining performances at Rock am Ring and Rock im Park. As always, we are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 and 2026 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more. If you have anything to contribute, check out our thread on the matter and submit your pictures directly to us - if they meet the mark we will get them uploaded to the show pages and credit you (and also blur your information out where applicable)! Last year we launched an LPLive Newsletter for those looking for more of a TL;DR version of what's going on with the tour than my pre-show posts - we'll be sending it out every couple of weeks so as to not flood your inbox, and will be bringing you an overview of both tour and general news updates, so be sure to sign up if you haven't already! We'll have you covered on everything the band does at this show and everything they whip out for the rest of the year, so be sure to sign up on the forums and follow us on social media (Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook)!

Ladies and gentlemen, we are back! Rogue Soul is back on pre-show post duty (for now) after my excursion to India and I'm ready to get rolling back into tour mode with you, but perhaps this is the beginning of the end. The final leg of the From Zero World Tour kicks off tomorrow, Friday the 29th of May 2026 at the 3Arena in Stockholm, Sweden - the band's fourth show in the country and third show in Stockholm, and by far their biggest there yet! This will be Linkin Park's first show in Sweden in nine years, their last being on the One More Light European Tour when they headlined the Bråvalla Festival in Norrköpping. This summer 2017 setlist was one of the best we had seen in years, with the legendary 'Roads Untraveled' and 'Fallout' mashup show opener leading right into 'Talking To Myself.' The set was full of plenty of surprises including an old-school reunion during 'One Step Closer,' when Christian Lindskog of Blindside came out to perform with the band for the first time since 2003! New songs from One More Light dotted the set, including 'Heavy' and 'Invisible' while the band also found time to squeeze in a classic 'Points Of Authority' near the end of the main set. Some Fort Minor moments also found their way into the set, with 'Petrified' being rapped over the newly remixed section of the 'Castle Of Glass' Experience and a unique 'Remember The Name' intro to 'Numb,' as the song 'Remember The Name' usually preceded as an intro ('Waiting For The End') was not performed that night. Linkin Park's full performance at the Bråvalla Festival in Norrköpping, Sweden on June 29, 2017 - skip to 17:30 to see Christian from Blindside perform 'One Step Closer' with the band! Linkin Park's last show in Stockholm itself takes us way back 15 years (!) to the A Thousand Suns World Tour, when Linkin Park performed their first headlining show of their 2011 European Tour to the Ericsson Globe Arena (now the Avicii Arena), unleashing Set B16 upon Europe for the first time. Featuring an opening sequence of 'The Requiem,' 'The Radiance,' 'Faint,' 'Lying From You,' 'Given Up,' and a rare early set 'What I've Done,' you just know Sweden was in for some trouble that night. Other goodies from A Thousand Suns that made their way into the set included 'Burning In The Skies,' 'Iridescent,' and an encore opening 'Empty Spaces' and 'When They Come For Me.' The band made their first stop in Sweden at the crux of the Minutes To Midnight World Tour in May 2007, a headlining show at the Globe Arena being the second stop on the first proper leg of the tour. With Thirty Seconds To Mars and Blindside supporting, Linkin Park unleashed a lot of new music upon the country, with 'One Step Closer' opening the show before heavy hitters like 'Given Up' and 'No More Sorrow' made some of their first appearances. 'Leave Out All The Rest' and 'The Little Things Give You Away,' which had debuted at the show prior, were also taken for another spin while tracks like 'Don't Stay' and the piano version of 'Pushing Me Away' kept things going in between. Linkin Park's full show at the Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden on June 14, 2011 - the A Thousand Suns World Tour stage setup and setlists were really something else! That show actually should've been Linkin Park's third show in the country, but their prior two appearances in the country were cancelled; the first was set for September 2001 to kick off the band's 2001 European Tour, but this show along with one in Fredericksburg, Denmark were cancelled, allegedly due to a "restructuring" of their US Tour, though we've never been able to find any official mention of this show or its cancellation on the Internet. Its existence is only known from a tour itinerary from 2001 that includes the date on it as well as a tour t-shirt found on Ebay that included it. Another show was set for the Hultsfred festival on the 2003 European Tour, but that entire tour had to be cancelled due to Chester being hospitalized with severe back and abdominal pains. Funnily enough (or perhaps not so funny for you Swedish fans), the band had a third show cancelled in Sweden in 2008 at the same Hultsfred festival, making it the only festival they've ever had to cancel on twice - the second cancellation was due to Brad being sick and under doctor's orders to rest. The next show at the Greenfield festival in Switzerland also had to be cancelled. If we go by the numbers, there's like a 50% chance this show actually happens... just kidding! All is looking good for a great show to kick off the final European leg of the tour! Linkin Park's last show on the From Zero World Tour was all the way down under in Auckland, New Zealand, wrapping up their Australian & New Zealand Tour in a big fashion. Performing Set B (with 'Iridescent' lyrics in the interludes), Act I saw the band rotate in 'Lying From You' and 'Points Of Authority, with 'Up From The Bottom' snugly in between before 'The Emptiness Machine' carried us into Act II. 'Castle Of Glass' was the LIVING THINGS rotation of the night before 'From The Inside' made an appearance for the fourth show in a row. 'Unshatter' made a rare appearance for the second time on the leg (second time in 2026 and fifth time ever) as the rotation song at the end of the act, right before Mike unleashed an insane medley of verses over his 'When They Come For Me/Remember The Name' solo medley. The medley included multiple choruses of 'Step Up' (with drums from Colin), 'Until It Breaks' verse 3, and the 'Lift Off' demo verse. We hope to see some similar Shinoda Shenanigans™ occur on this upcoming leg! too. Act III kept the surprises coming, with the recently revived 2017 Version of 'Leave Out All The Rest' making its second appearance in two shows since its last performances in 2024! The band kept the energy going in Act IV, with 'Overflow' featuring 'One' by 'Metallica' as its synth intro of the night. Emily stopped 'Faint' during the intro so a fan who had fallen could get some help (just like Chester did in Australia back in 2013 during a performance of 'Points Of Authority') before the band kicked back into things to end the main set. The encore finished things off with a bang, with 'Papercut,' 'Heavy Is The Crown,' and 'Bleed It Out' (with a verse of 'There They Go') closing out the night. The band's ventures in early 2026 were quite the interesting ride, and we're looking forward to seeing what happens on this last stretch! Linkin Park performing 'Leave Out All The Rest' at the Spark Arena in Auckland, New Zealand on March 18, 2026. Will we see anymore of the 2024 songs make a comeback this summer? Can we expect any major surprises for the end of the tour? We haven't seen any Emily/Colin/Alex debuts yet this year, with the last being 'Lies Greed Misery' back in Boston last summer. Fans are still adamantly awaiting the return of 'With You' and 'Blackout' after they were mentioned as songs Colin and Emily want to perform live, and with the return of 'Leave Out All The Rest,' the door is opened for more tracks from the initial 2024 run that have since been dropped for more From Zero material to be reintroduced into the set. These include the likes of 'Lost In The Echo,' 'Breaking The Habit,' 'Friendly Fire,' and 'My December,' any of which would be great to see back in rotation! As seen with the one-off performance of 'All For Nothing' back in Arlington 2024 (still one of the craziest things to ever happen with this band live, btw), it's clear that the band don't mind whipping out something special to get the opening act involved - Clipse are opening for the band on this run of shows, and for those who don't know, Clipse is a hip-hop duo consisting of Malice and Pusha T. While Malice hasn't collab'ed with the band or its members (yet), fans will remember that Pusha T. featured on 'Good Goodbye' from One More Light. When the band performed the song in 2017, they performed a shortened live version that featured an extra verse from Mike, and the band performed the song with Stormzy (the song's other guest) at their two stops in London that tour. 'Good Goodbye' has never been performed with Pusha before, so maybe 2026 is the moment to complete the circle. What're your guesses as to what we'll see on this upcoming leg - more of the same, or is Linkin Park cooking up something special? Linkin Park will be supported by two groups for the majority of the upcoming tour: first up is the aforementioned Clipse. Initially active in the mid-90s and 2000s, Clipse have made a return to the scene in the last years and will be a good hip-hop precursor for what's to come at night. Their latest record, 2025's Let God Sort Em Out is chock full of trancey and dark instrumentals accentuated by carefully calculated verses and lyricism. Top tracks include 'Ace Trumpets' and 'Chains & Whips,' the latter featuring Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell. Following Clipse will be electronic outfit Phantogram. Featuring a dreamier yet just as urgent soundscape, Phantogram's music captures both intimate moments and massive ones, with tracks like 'Black Out Days' and 'When I'm Small' sure to be featured in their set. A fun fact about Phantogram - they are credited as the inspiration for Mike's 'What The Words Meant,' a bonus track from his Post Traumatic album. It's cool to see some things come full circle like this - and it'd be even cooler to see some collabs onstage with these great acts! Phantogram performing their song 'Black Out Days' at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, California on March 11, 2026. With the dark hip-hop vibes of Clipse and the ethereal pop rock of Phantogram, we will all be in for a great night of music! Who's going to the show? Rogue Soul pre-show post means WEATHERMAN ROGUE SOUL IS BACK with some good news! Friday is looking cool but sunny as the Nordic clouds disperse to make way for Linkin Park, so expect fair weather but the regular Stockholm chill with a high temperature of 19°C and a low of 9°C. If you're looking for a bite to eat before the show, look no further than the Linkin Buns truck on Arenaslingan 7 at 4:00pm - the first 500 fans get a free cinnamon bun! After this show, Linkin Park embarks on a pretty extensive run of German shows with two nights in Hamburg before their triumphant return to Rock am Ring and Rock im Park. I'm flying out to Germany on Saturday for the headline shows (+ Vienna), so I hope to see some of you out there! As always, we are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 and 2026 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more.

forgot to comment on this or even post it when it dropped but let it be known "The people have been waiting a long time for this" ~ Rogue Soul, 2026

Happy 2026 everyone! Hoping everyone's new year is off to a great start so far. Linkin Park are back in business and are ready to bring the From Zero World Tour to more fans across the world! We're kicking off with a place I don't think anyone ever thought they'd play a show, but it's a new day and age in 2026! Linkin Park kick off their mini-tour across the Middle East and India with their first show ever in Sakhir, Bahrain at the Beyon Al Dana Amphitheater on Sunday, January 18, 2026! While this will be Linkin Park's first show in the country of Bahrain, it won't be the first time they've stopped in the Middle East - not even on this tour alone! The band made their first appearance with Emily in the region back at the end of 2024, at the Soundstorm Festival in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Their first appearance in Saudi Arabia, the band performed a short yet electrifying set, mixed with new tracks like 'The Emptiness Machine,' 'Over Each Other,' and 'Two Faced,' as well as older hits like 'Given Up' (returning to the setlists after having been dropped on their brief 2024 South American stint) and 'One Step Closer.' This itself was Linkin Park's first visit to the Middle East since their debut performances there in 2010 on the A Thousand Suns World Tour. Stopping in Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv, the band delivered amazing shows with quite special moments: Abu Dhabi's set featured a very rare 'Fallout' into 'The Catalyst' opener (for the last time until 2017), while Chester sang a cover of Bob Marley's 'No Woman, No Cry' during the intro of 'The Messenger' in Tel Aviv. Mike Shinoda's Post Traumatic Tour also stopped in Tel Aviv in 2019 for a pair of shows - the only city to have two nights in a row on the whole tour! Night one featured rarities including 'Sorry For Now' with a 'High Voltage' verse, 'Kenji,' and b-side 'Prove You Wrong,' while tracks like 'Ghosts,' 'Make It Up As I Go,' and 'Crossing The Line' added a brighter energy to the set. Night two had even more surprises, including an early-set piano sing-a-long of 'The Catalyst,' the tour debut of 'Invisible,' 'High Road' with our beloved Jim Digby onstage, 'Watching As I Fall' with Mike's tour security Ed Majic on guitar, and 'Nobody Can Save Me' in the encore. During the live version 'Lift Off,' Mike whipped out verses of 'Step Up' and 'High Voltage,' as well! These sets were packed with goods for fans who made it to the shows, and really have us hoping that Mike does another smaller solo tour in the future! Right now, though, it's Linkin Park time. Linkin Park performing 'Given Up' at the Soundstorm Festival in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on December 12, 2024. The Middle East has opened up a lot since the band was absent, so it's exciting to see the band play in new places and hit different parts of the world more often! The From Zero World Tour left off in South America and Mexico, with the band's most extensive tour of the continent to date and their triumphant return to Mexico after a successful tour there at the start of the year (also the first time the band has visited the country on separate occasions on the same world tour)! The band's last show was the headlining slot at Mexico City's Corona Capital festival, where the band performed their full two hour show after being granted a full headlining time by a festival for the first time in their history. Performing Set B ('Iridescent' lyrics in the interludes), opening with the familiar Inception Intro into 'Somewhere I Belong,' rotating in 'Lying From You,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'New Divide' in Act I before 'The Emptiness Machine' closed it out. 'Cut The Bridge,' 'Points Of Authority,' and 'IGYEIH' all made surprise appearances in Act II, as well as a verse of 'It's Goin' Down' during Mike's solo medley. Act III saw 'Stained' rotate in after 'Lost,' while Act IV wrapped up the main set with 'One' by Metallica performed by Mike on synth during the intro of 'Overflow' and 'Over Each Other' rotating in. The show closed with the 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' combo, the latter of which featured a verse of 'A Place For My Head' over the extended bridge. Corona Capital was a massive way to end an absolutely massive year - certainly the band's busiest in decades (it definitely was for us)! Big things are definitely waiting for us in 2026! Linkin Park's full performance at the Corona Capital festival in Mexico City, Mexico on November 16, 2025. What a way to take out a groundbreaking year for the band - and we were blessed with two epic pro shots at the end of it all! What is in store for us in 2026? It's hard to say, at this point in time - with all of From Zero performed live ('From Zero (Intro)' and deluxe tracks included), there aren't really any live debuts left to hunt down in the new year, which leaves options open for the return of older songs. It should be noted that two of the deluxe tracks - 'Unshatter' and 'Let You Fade' - were absent from the band's entire South American jaunt that closed out the year of touring. With 'Unshatter' having only three total performances under it's belt, both songs have been absent since the band's show in Portland, Oregon in September 2024 - which was also the first show to feature all three deluxe tracks in one setlist. We're looking back in the discography for surprises in 2026, now! 2025 was full of live debuts, but we did also get some older songs added into the mix: the full version of 'Lost' with its piano start into the full band and 'From The Inside' both debuted in Mexico at the start of the year, while 'Lies Greed Misery' returned to the setlist for the first time since 2013 during the band's North American Tour in the summer. 'Where'd You Go' also got its Linkin Park debut and became an integral part of the setlist on the first string of North American dates in the spring. Many songs from 2024 were missing, as well throughout the year: we haven't seen 'Breaking The Habit,' 'Leave Out All The Rest,' 'My December,' 'Friendly Fire,' or 'Lost In The Echo' since the first run of shows in 2024. We definitely wouldn't complain if any of these were added back into the rotation this year! Two out of four requests from Emily have made it into the show so far: 'Lies Greed Misery' and 'Where'd You Go.' The two missing are probably the currently most heavily requested songs from the fanbase right for an Emily debut: 'With You' and 'Blackout.' The return of those songs would certainly set the fanbase into a frenzy - will 2026 be the year? Let us know your predictions! Opening the show will be the Dubai-native PeachPuffs, a newer band on the scene with only a 5-song EP out but a big sound. Sampling through tracks like 'You Happen To Be Insane' and 'Sleepwalking,' it looks like these guys are destined to make some waves through the Middle East and beyond - and it'll definitely be a proper opening show for Linkin Park! If you haven't heard of these guys, give them a listen! PeachPuffs performing their song 'Sleepwalking' at LSB Dubai in the United Arab Emirates - definitely one of the more intriguing opening acts on the From Zero World Tour so far! Who's going to the show? Weatherman Rogue Soul is back and reporting a beautiful day in Bahrain with temperatures as high as 20°C and a low of 12°C. Dress comfortably (or appropriately? I honestly don't know how things be running out here) for the show and get ready to kick off 2026's tour with a bang! After this show, Linkin Park returns to the United Arab Emirates for the first time since 2010 in Abu Dhabi on January 20 before heading to India for their first shows in the country in Bengaluru and Lollapalooza Mumbai. I'll be at the India shows, so hopefully I'll see some of you there! With all the recent Linkinpedia updates we've been doing as far as the show pages show, we'd like your help in expanding them further! We are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 and 2026 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more. If you have anything to contribute, check out our thread on the matter and submit your pictures directly to us - if they meet the mark we will get them uploaded to the show pages and credit you (and also blur your information out where applicable)!

Kiwis, your cries have been heard - Linkin Park will be making their triumphant return to New Zealand on March 18, 2026 in Auckland at the Spark Arena! This adds another stop to the Australian Leg (which is now the Australia & New Zealand Leg) which stops in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney throughout the rest of the month. LPU Legacy Presale: Monday, December 8 @ 12pm NZST LPU Passport Presale: Monday, December 8 @ 1pm NZST General Sale: Friday, December 12 @ 1pm NZST This will be Linkin Park's fourth show ever in the country and city, and the first since 2013's LPU Summit in Auckland - 13 years since their last show! With the From Zero World Tour getting longer yet again, 2026 is looking like a big year yet again - who's going to try and get tickets?

We've reached the end of the tour... for the year! Linkin Park's From Zero World Tour has one more stop for 2025, and it's going to be a big finale to a big year of touring! The band will headline Mexico City's Corona Capital festival for the first time, returning to the country for the second time on the tour on November 16, 2025! Linkin Park's return to Mexico on the From Zero World Tour is somewhat of an unprecedented move for them - this'll be the first time the band has ever made two separate stops in the country on one world tour, usually only stopping by for one or two shows a cycle. The Mexican Leg of the tour that kicked off 2025 seemed to have made quite the impact on the band and the fans with how soon they returned! The band made three stops in the country back in January 2025: Mexico City, Zapopan, and Monterrey. These were the first shows to feature changes to the setlist following the release of From Zero, notably dropping a number of older songs in favor of new material. The main changes to the setlist (that largely are still in place today) include the live debuts of 'Overflow' and 'Good Things Go,' as well as the full band debut of 'Lost' as the band performed the entire song. 'From The Inside' returned to the setlist in Monterrey, making it the first time the song had ever been performed with Colin, Emily, and Alex, and is one of only two songs that were "revived" this year (the other being 'Lies Greed Misery' in the summer). Mike also performed the bridge of 'Cut The Bridge' over the bridge of 'Bleed It Out' (good ol' Bridgeception) at the shows (as well as at the three following shows in Asia), making it the first ever appearance of the track in setlists before it debuted later in the year. 2025 began and will end with shows in Mexico - we started with a bang, and we're sure we're going to go out with one! Linkin Park performing 'Good Things Go' at the Estadio 3 de Marzo in Zapopan, Mexico on February 3, 2025. This was the song's second performance ever - will it make one last return in the country at Corona Capital? The band wrapped up their South American Tour at their last show in Brasília, Brazil on Tuesday, taking the tour out in a big way for their first headlining show in the country's capital. The band performed Set A ('Castle Of Glass' theme), and whipped out the following rotation songs: 'Points Of Authority' and 'Crawling' in Act I; 'Over Each Other,' 'Castle Of Glass,' and 'Casualty' in Act II (with a verse of 'Until It Breaks' over Mike's solo and Poppy guesting on 'One Step Closer'); 'Stained' in Act III; and finally 'From The Inside' in Act IV, closing the show with 'In The End' and 'Faint.' Encompassing all of the times Linkin Park as a band has picked up their instruments to perform as a band for fans (including private performances, soundchecks, etc.), this show was Linkin Park's 1,000th performance! Their proper 1,000th show will likely come in 2027 on whatever comes next after the From Zero World Tour, but it's an LPLive statistic worth celebrating! Despite this being a festival show, Linkin Park is scheduled for a full two hours on the timesheet, meaning they have time for their full set! It's entirely possible, if not likely that something or the other will be omitted, but they have more time then they generally would for a festival headlining set so things are looking good for Mexico! If I had to wager a guess, I'd say the set format will be similar to when Linkin Park's I-Days set in Milan, Italy, where they played almost a full set, with a few omissions to fit the festival time. We're not quite sure what the band will roll with for this show in Mexico City, but assuming they keep their rotations consistent, Corona Capital is lined up for Set B, with 'Iridescent' vocals during the interludes, last performed in Curitiba, Brazil. At that show, the band played these rotations: 'Crawling' and 'New Divide' in Act I; 'Cut The Bridge,' 'From The Inside,' and 'Given Up' in Act II; 'Over Each Other' in Act III; and 'Stained' in Act IV, closing the night with 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out.' If we see these rotations in Mexico City, we are sure in for a wild ride! It seems unlikely at this point that the band will bring out any of the "missing" songs from the this last stretch of shows ('Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Unshatter,' and 'Let You Fade'), but 'Let You Fade' DID get its live debut at a festival earlier this year (Welcome To Rockville in Daytona Beach, Florida), so anything is possible! Linkin Park's full show at the Estádio Mane Garrincha in Brasília, Brazil on November 11, 2025. This whole South American leg was one for the record books, and this last show in Brazil was no exception! It's looking very likely that this show will be officially livestreamed by Corona Capital! The festival streamed artists like Foo Fighters and Chappell Roan on Saturday, so we'll be tuned in Sunday to watch Linkin Park, too! It seems that the livestream will be both on the festival's official YouTube Channel as well as on vix.com - however the stream is geolocked to Mexico and a few other countries (I've read reports of it working in Australia and possibly the United States). We'll have more precise info as the show nears, so check back and be sure to set your alarms for 11:00pm CST when the band is scheduled to go onstage! If the band DOES play Set B, this will be the first proshot we have of this set and will be the first time the 'Iridescent' themed interludes are caught on some form of official audio, so fingers crossed! As this is a festival, lots of great acts will be performing throughout the day alongside Linkin Park! I'll also be tuning in to the Deftones stream when they perform the closing set on the Escenario Doritos! Linkin Park plays the MainStage (Escenario Corona) alongside Weezer, AFI (who opened for them on their previous Mexico jaunt!), Alexandra Savior, and Arny Margaret. Other great acts on the lineup include TV On The Radio, Of Monsters and Men, Peach Pit, SYML, and more - if you're going to the festival, be sure to check lots of different acts out! With all these great bands on deck, hopefully we see a collaboration take place during Linkin Park's show, too - a guest spot from Chino Moreno or Davey Havok would be an epic way to wrap up a long year of touring! Who's going to the show? Weatherman Rogue Soul reporting in for the final outlook for the year, and it's looking like a beautiful day in Mexico City, with a high of 25°C! It'll get chilly at night as it dips down to 9°C, so be sure to be prepared for the colder night but be ready for a great time! Linkin Park has the rest of 2025 off, but the From Zero World Tour will kick back up at the end of January as the band takes the show to the Middle East and South Asia with shows in Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and India before heading to Australia for a series of shows in February and March. As it stands, the From Zero World Tour wraps up next summer with one final run through Europe! With all the recent Linkinpedia updates we've been doing as far as the show pages show, we'd like your help in expanding them further! We are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more.

As fate would have it… if you’re going, I’ll see you there!

After their most active year of touring in over a decade, we’ve almost hit the end of the road for 2025 - Linkin Park wraps up their South American leg of the From Zero World Tour - the final leg of the year - TONIGHT at the Estádio Mane Garrincha in Brasília, Brazil! This will be the second show Linkin Park has ever played in Brazil’s capital city, but it will be their first headlining show there! The band last performed in Brasília in 2014 on The Hunting Party World Tour, performing the Circuito Banco do Brasil in October 2014. Delivering Set A to the crowd (and experiencing less technical difficulties than the show before it), Linkin Park played a big show full of new tracks like ‘Guilty All The Same,’ ‘Rebellion,’ and ‘Final Masquerade’ still fresh off the presses. This show was also the first to feature the A Thousand Suns interlude speeches during the ‘Castle Of Glass’ Experience - the Martin Luther King, Jr. speech from ‘Wisdom, Justice, and Love’ and the Robert J. Oppenheimer speech from ‘The Radiance’ were added to the live remix starting from this show to the end of the cycle. This was a great festival show to see, and we’re sure the band’s first headlining show here will be even more of a hit! The band’s penultimate show of the South American Tour was in São Paulo, the third show in the city on the From Zero World Tour. Another massive Brazil show for the books, the band delivered Set C (‘Burn It Down’ theme) to the city, playing ‘Lying From You,’ ‘Up From The Bottom,’ and ‘New Divide’ in Act I; ‘Cut The Bridge,’ ‘Lies Greed Misery,’ and ‘IGYEIH’ (as well as the a verse and chorus of ‘It’s Goin’ Down’ over Mike’s solo) in Act II; ‘Good Things Go’ in Act III; and ‘Over Each Other’ in Act IV, closing the show with ‘Heavy Is The Crown’ and ‘Bleed It Out.’ Brasìlia is lined up for Set A (the classic ‘Castle Of Glass’ theme) to close out the tour, last played in Santiago, Chile. At that performance, the band played ‘Points Of Authority,’ ‘Up From The Bottom,’ and ‘Crawling’ in Act I; ‘Over Each Other,’ ‘Lies Greed Misery,’ and ‘IGYEIH’ in Act II; ‘Stained’ in Act III; and ‘From The Inside’ in Act IV, closing the night with ‘In The End’ and ‘Faint.’ The band has been sticking to the same general versions of the setlists for this tour, switching up a thing or two here and there but following the same patterns for the most part. That being said, there’s always room for surprises, especially with the final show of the tour! South America has yet to see ‘Let You Fade,’ ‘Unshatter,’ and ‘Keys To The Kingdom’ on this run - will the lucky show be Brasília? Who’s going to the show? Poppy will be opening for the final time on this world tour for the band, so don’t miss her set if you can make it early enough! It’s likely she’ll be guesting on ‘One Step Closer’ later on during Linkin Park’s set, as well! The band has one more show scheduled after this one in 2025 - this weekend at Mexico City’s Corona Capital festival, which is expected to be a full set and likely be streamed online.

The time has come. You've seen the social media comments. You demanded, the band answered. Linkin Park has COME TO BRAZIL! The From Zero World Tour's next stop on its South American leg is its first of three in Brazil, the first show happening in Curitiba, Paraná on November 5, 2025! This will be the band's very first show in the city of Curitiba, so I don't have much of a history lesson for you today, but I do have a couple of fun facts. While this'll be the first show the band will perform there, there were plans in 2012 for a show in Curitiba when the Living Things South American Tour was originally announced, slated for October 2012. In September 2012, the tour was rerouted and the show in Curitiba replaced by a second night in Rio de Janeiro. The tables have turned in 2025, with a show in Rio being taken off the router from the original announcement and the Curitiba show moving ahead. Another fun fact is that this is the second furthest-south show in Brazil they've played; the title of that award goes to Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul that was on that 2012 South American Tour. This'll be the furthest south this leg goes on this string of Brazilian dates (with a show in Porto Alegre also getting taken off the routing), so let's see how crazy they get down there! Linkin Park's full show in Porto Alegre, Brazil at the Gigantinho on October 15, 2012 to close out the Living Things South American Tour. Opening with 'Tinfoil' and 'Faint,' this show got off to a huge start - does the south of Brazil really do it better? The band's last stop on the tour was in Santiago, Chile, another epic night for the South American tour! The band performed Set A ('Castle Of Glass' theme), bringing out 'Points Of Authority,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'Crawling' in Act I in the rotating slots. Act II followed suit with 'Over Each Other,' 'Lies Greed Misery,' and 'IGYEIH,' as well as the demo verse of 'Lift Off' from Post Traumatic during Mike's solo ('When They Come For Me'/'Remember The Name') and a Poppy feature on 'One Step Closer.' My beloved 'Stained' was performed in Act III, while 'From The Inside' made another appearance this leg in Act IV. The show closed out with 'In The End' and 'Faint' for an old-school finale in the encore - a huge ending for a huge night! Curitiba is lined up for Set B ('Iridescent' theme), last performed in Lima, Peru last week. Last show's performance of Set A actually matched with the previous performance in Bogotá, Colombia, so it's possible that tonight's set will feature the same rotations. In Lima, Act I featured 'Crawling,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'New Divide' (with the short Moscow Intro); Act II had 'Cut The Bridge,' 'From The Inside,' and 'Given Up' (which had an INSANE crowd reaction); Act III saw 'Over Each Other;' Act IV had 'Stained;' and the night closed out with 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out.' There's still plenty of room for surprises, with a few notable songs that have been in rotation this year still missing from the South American leg: 'Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Unshatter,' and 'Let You Fade.' There's ample opportunity for them to be subbed into the set in any of these rotation spots, so keep your eyes peeled for surprises! Linkin Park's full show at the Estadio Nacional in Santiago, Chile on November 2, 2025! These South American shows do not stop delivering, especially with the crowds - some of the best audiences on the planet! Poppy will be opening the show before Linkin Park, and her sets this leg have really been something! Opening with 'have you had enough,' her set dives into powerful tracks like 'BLOODMONEY' and her collaboration with Bad Omens, 'V.A.N.' Older classics like 'Concrete' and 'Anything Like Me' fill the body of the set while new tracks from 2024's Negative Spaces like 'the cost of giving up' and 'crystallized' are also performed. Her set ends with 'new way out,' taking things out with a bang before Linkin Park hits the stage! She'll likely pop back out to perform 'One Step Closer' with the band during their set, too! If you can make it early to see her, be sure not to miss her set! Who's going to the show? LPLive staff lpliveusername will be there, so be sure to say hi if you see them! The band has two more shows left on this South American run with stops in São Paulo and Brasília before wrapping it up for the year in Mexico for a headlining slot at Corona Capital. The From Zero World Tour will continue going strong in 2026, with a new show announced recently: a headlining performance at Download 2026 in the United Kingdom!

After a groundbreaking show in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Halloween day, Linkin Park's From Zero World Tour continues through South America, making its next stop at the Estadio Nacional in Santiago, Chile on November 2, 2025! This will be Linkin Park's third show in the country and city, and their first in over eight years! Their last visit to Santiago was on the One More Light South American Tour, the second show of the world tour and the first headlining show of the cycle. The band switched up their setlist from its festival counterpart, performing the freshly debuted 'Talking To Myself' as the opening song after the beloved 'Roads Untraveled' and 'Fallout' intro. The crowd reaction to this opener was unbelievable, and almost entirely the reason the song became a single a few months later. Ripping through new tracks like 'Battle Symphony' and 'Good Goodbye,' the band added some more new songs to the setlist with the public live debuts of 'Invisible' and 'One More Light.' 'Waiting For The End' was added back into the setlist for the headlining show as well, with a brand new intro featuring 'Remember The Name.' With other tracks like 'Wastelands' and 'Lost In The Echo' getting their first airtime in the country after being missed on their albums' respective cycles, the night's encore ended with a touching moment as fans held up signs that said "why is everything so heavy?" for 'Heavy.' Their last show in the country made a lasting impact on the album cycle that was ahead of them, and we're sure this show will be no different! Linkin Park opening their show at the Movistar Arena in Santiago, Chile on May 9, 2017 with the 'Roads Untraveled'/'Fallout' mashup and 'Talking To Myself' - the crowd reaction to this sequence still sends shivers down my spine! The way they erupt when 'Talking To Myself' kicks in is nothing short of legendary. Prior to this, Linkin Park played their first show in the country all the way back on the A Thousand Suns World Tour, the second night of the first proper leg of the tour that took them through both South America and Europe. The band headlined the Maquinara Festival, opening the show with an electrifying sequence of 'The Requiem' into 'Wretches and Kings' - which, listening to it now as I write this post, may be one of the best performances of 'Wretches' ever! The band continued through the set, unleashing the likes of 'Papercut,' 'Given Up,' and 'New Divide' on the good people of Chile for the first time, finding time later in the set for new tracks like 'When They Come For Me' and 'Iridescent,' even whipping out 'No More Sorrow' with its long intro to keep the drama going. These first few shows in South America (and the album release show in New York City, New York) are among the only shows in the band's history to have closed with 'What I've Done' rather than the normal trio of either 'Bleed It Out,' 'Faint,' or 'One Step Closer' - to date, this was the last time the song closed a full show. Do you think it's time the band changes things up for the closing songs again? Linkin Park's full set at the Maquinara Festival in Santiago, Chile on October 11, 2010 - their first ever performance in the country and quite an epic one, at that! The last stop on the From Zero World Tour was in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and for the first time since São Paulo, Brazil last year, we got to watch it live! The show was broadcast live by Flow TV, and offered us fans an amazingly filmed proshot that came complete with an absolutely nasty mix. No huge surprises came out during the show, but the setlist (paired with the phenomenal mix) was certainly a sight to watch unfold. The band performed Set C (with 'Iridescent' lyrics in the interludes), changing up the rotations yet again but keeping us all on our toes. Emily came out onstage dressed as Diego Maradona in the spirit of Halloween! Act I featured 'Lying From You' (performed for the first time this leg), 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'New Divide' with the short Moscow Intro. Act II followed suit with 'Cut The Bridge' (a particularly good performance of the song, too) and the leg debuts of 'Castle Of Glass' and 'Casualty' - Mike also rapped the second verse of 'When They Come For Me' over the extended portion of his solo medley. While in the crowd, he said the famous words to the particularly crazy crowd: "When someone falls down, pick them up!" Act II wrapped up with 'One Step Closer' featuring Poppy, who returned to guest on the song after missing out on the band's previous show in Lima, Peru. 'Good Things Go' rotated into Act III, being performed in the continent for the first time before 'A Place For My Head' caused earthquakes in Act IV. The 'Overflow' intro featured the guitar riff of 'Pushing Me Away' as well, played by Mike on his synth! The encore wrapped up in a massive fashion (with Mike donning a Scream mask and a t-shirt featuring Emily photoshopped onto strawberries), hitting the crowd with 'Papercut,' 'Heavy Is The Crown,' and 'Bleed It Out' which had 'There They Go' over the extended bridge. The band's shows in South America have been unbelievable so far, and we're super happy that we have the Argentina proshot to have a visual record of the insanity that went down! Linkin Park's full show at the Parque de la Ciudad in Buenos Aires, Argentina on October 31, 2025. Without a doubt one of the best pro shots of the band full stop, from videography to the audio quality. Definitely check this one out if you missed it live! Santiago is lined up for Set A ('Castle Of Glass' themed interludes), last performed at the leg opener in Bogotá, Colombia. Since the rotations change on a nightly basis, it's unlikely we'll see the band play the exact same set as they did in Colombia (though it's not impossible), but here's what went down in Bogotá for reference: Act I saw 'Points Of Authority,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'Crawling;' Act II saw 'Over Each Other,' 'Lies Greed Misery,' and 'IGYEIH;' 'Stained' in Act III; and 'From The Inside' in Act IV, with an 'In The End' and 'Faint' show closer. We are four shows deep into this final leg of the year, but we are still missing a few songs that were in active rotation this year: 'Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Let You Fade,' and 'Unshatter.' It's entirely possible all three of those could make it into the set in Santiago for tonight's show - but we're sure we'll see at least one of them make an appearance tonight. What are your guesses for the setlist in Santiago? Poppy will be opening the show in Santiago, and metal's rising queen has been making quite the impact on this run! She brought out her full set in Argentina, opening with 'have you had enough?' and 'BLOODMONEY.' New cuts from her latest record Negative Spaces like 'the cost of giving up' and show closer 'new way out' dot the set while older classics including 'Concrete' and 'Anything Like Me' are also performed. She even whips out her collaboration with Bad Omens, 'V.A.N.' in the set! If you can make it to the show early to see her, definitely don't miss her set! And let's hope she makes another appearance on 'One Step Closer,' too! Linkin Park performing 'One Step Closer' featuring Poppy in Buenos Aires, Argentina on October 31, 2025! Another blessing from the proshot is that we get this collaboration in high definition! Who's going to the show? Weatherman Rogue Soul reporting a pretty hot and beautiful day ahead for Santiago with temperatures reaching a high of 27°C with sunny skies! Things will get chilly at night as things drop down to 12°C, so be prepared for a chilly walk out of the venue! After this show, the band heads to Brazil for a series of shows in Curitiba, São Paulo, and Brasilia to wrap up the South American leg and will conclude the hectic year of touring later this month with a headlining performance at the Corona Capital festival in Mexico.

Epic epic broadcast on this stream - probably the best I've heard in years, maybe ever. Blows the São Paulo 2024 one out of the water in all ways IMO - performance, videography, and sound. Setlist perhaps leaves a little to be desired in terms of oldies but it's great to have all the new songs from this year in proper proshot format now. Good Things Go didn't sound perfect but not half as bad as some of y'all are making it out to be (BID Brazil 2014 still holds the record for biggest train wreck LP performance) but it is undoubtedly probably the one song from the record that doesn't translate the best live. Cut The Bridge was there too to begin with but it has become a monster live over the summer, this performance sounded massive with the guitars. Alex is really killing it now. GTG just comes down to it being an incredibly hard song to sing in the first place - not Emily's fault really, even with the key change down it's still tough to pull off. Don't think any singer WOULDN'T struggle with that song. Other than a few hiccups here and there, another fantastic show from the band this tour and a really really great proshot!

Happy Halloween, everyone! It's time to From Zero World Tour gets spooky, and Linkin Park is bringing the scarily epic show down to Buenos Aires, Argentina at the Parque de la Ciudad for the next stop on the South American Leg on October 31, 2025 - and there'll be a live broadcast for those of you in Argentina who can't make it, but we'll get more into that later! This will be Linkin Park's fourth show ever in the city of Buenos Aires and Argentina itself, with their latest endeavor there being the legendary opening performance of the One More Light World Tour. The band headlined the Maximus Festival in May 2017, playing their first show in almost two years with an unforgettable setlist - a show we at LPLive vividly remember covering! Opening with the incredible 'Roads Untraveled' and 'Fallout' mashup, the band launched into 'The Catalyst' as the first song of the set for the first time since 2010 and the first time in full since 2013. After launching into The Hunting Party staple 'Wastelands,' the band performed 'Talking To Myself' live in full for the first time - the reception to the song in South America later led the band to release the song as a single. More live debuts came with 'Good Goodbye' and 'Battle Symphony,' while more songs made returns such as 'Leave Out All The Rest' in its iconic 2017 Live Version (the song itself being performed in full for the first time since January 2011 after spending years in the Ballad Medley) and 'Breaking The Habit' with its a cappella outro returning for the first time since 2011. 'Castle Of Glass' had an updated Experience Version featuring an unreleased remix from Recharged, while songs like 'One Step Closer' and 'What I've Done' received new intros. 2017 had one of the most LPLive setlists the band has ever played (much like 2025!), and that opening night in Argentina really brought the fanbase back into action. Linkin Park's full performance at the Maximus Festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina on May 6, 2017. An unforgettable setlist and night itself, this show kicked off the world tour in an epic way. I vividly remember watching this livestream and losing my mind over the set! Prior to this show, the band last visited Buenos Aires on the Living Things World Tour in October 2012. Once again the opening night on the band's return to South America, the band opened the show with 'A Place For My Head,' gracing the country with the LPLive national anthem for the first time. Continuing into 'Given Up,' the band had to abort 'New Divide' during the bridge due to the crowd getting a little too rowdy! After the little incident, the band returned to deliver older classics like 'With You,' 'Somewhere I Belong,' and 'Points Of Authority,' while finding time for new songs like 'Lies Greed Misery,' 'Victimized (w/ QWERTY),' and 'Lost In The Echo,' the latter of which saw the crowd do a flashmob, holding up signs featuring lyrics from the song. This show was exactly two years after the band's first performance in the country, which came in October 2010, opening the A Thousand Suns World Tour properly. Opening with an absolutely disgusting sequence of 'The Requiem,' 'Wretches and Kings,' 'Papercut,' and 'Given Up,' the band made their presence known right off the bat in the country (I thought this run of songs was banned in the Geneva Convention - this would cause wars today). Being the opening night of the world tour, the band whipped out live debuts such as 'The Messenger,' 'Wisdom, Justice, and Love,' and our beloved 'When They Come For Me' ('Empty Spaces' included), while other songs like 'Waiting For The End' and 'The Catalyst' were also being dusted off. The band has never delivered a bad set in Argentina, and we know that streak continues today! As an extra little tidbit, this'll be the first time Linkin Park has performed on Halloween since 2001, when they played in Atlanta, Georgia! We don't know much about this performance, but we do have pictures of Chester and Brad wearing animal masks to celebrate the holiday. The band performed at a Halloween-themed festival in November 2015 - the Monster Mash in Tempe, Arizona, a suburb of Chester's hometown of Phoenix. Featuring heavy hits from The Hunting Party like 'Rebellion' and 'A Line In The Sand,' the energy of the night was elevated by the band going full Halloween mode with zombie makeup being done before the show! It'll be interesting to see if the band pulls any similar antics at this show - though since it's going to be broadcast live, we wouldn't expect anything too crazy - but it wouldn't be too surprising to see the band walk out in Halloween costumes! A full audience recording of Linkin Park's very first show in Buenos Aires, Argentina on October 7, 2010 at the Estadio José Amalfitani - the opening runs on the A Thousand Suns Tour need to be studied by historians. Back to the present! Linkin Park's 2025 South American Tour so far has been the biggest and perhaps most chaotic yet, with their last show in Lima, Peru being perhaps the craziest we've seen all tour! The band performed Set B (with 'Iridescent' over the interludes) and kept us on our toes once again with the rotations, bringing in 'Crawling,' 'Up From The Bottom' early once again, and 'New Divide' (with the short Moscow Intro) for Act I. Act II saw some funkiness happen, with 'Cut The Bridge' taking the first spot and 'From The Inside' making a surprise appearance in the 'Castle Of Glass'/'Lies Greed Misery' rotation spot! The act carried on with lots of energy with an 'It's Goin' Down' verse and chorus for Mike's solo medley followed by the return of 'Given Up' (with a HUGE crowd reaction) and 'One Step Closer' - which did NOT feature Poppy on vocals this time, surprisingly! Act III subbed in 'Over Each Other,' the song appearing for the second show in a row before 'Stained' made a surprise late-set appearance in Act IV. 'Faint' closed the main set, but not before the crowd went absolutely ballistic for it - even lighting flares in the crowd for the show! While we can't condone this behavior legally, we also can't say it wasn't fucking awesome. The encore wrapped up with 'Papercut,' 'Heavy Is The Crown,' and 'Bleed It Out' with a verse of 'A Place For My Head' to top things all off - another unforgettable setlist and show for the From Zero history books! Given the band's history in Argentina and their track record on the tour so far, it's hard to say what they'll play but we do know it'll be absolutely mental. The show will be broadcast live to Flow TV members in Argentina who can't make it - so it's not a global livestream that we'll all be able to access, but we're sure a recording of it will pop up very shortly after the show wraps up. If we find any other sources on the stream that aren't geo-locked, we'll let you know, but rest assured we will have the recorded show up not long after the show ends! Since there is a broadcast going on, it wouldn't be surprising if the band played it safe with their set choices for this one, whipping out the songs they are most comfortable with. That being said, Argentina is lined up for Set C ('Burn It Down' theme for the interludes), last performed in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada in September. The band changes up the rotations every night, but for reference, the last run of the set had the following rotations: 'Lying From You,' 'Crawling,' and 'New Divide' in Act I; 'Lies Greed Misery' and 'IGYEIH' in Act II; 'Stained' in Act III; and 'Over Each Other' in Act IV. 'Lying From You,' 'Casualty,' 'Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Good Things Go,' 'Unshatter,' 'Let You Fade,' and 'A Place For My Head' have yet to make appearances on the South American leg so far, so it's looking likely that we see at least one or two of these pop up in Buenos Aires - what are your guesses for Argentina? Linkin Park's full performance at the Estadio San Marcos in Lima, Peru on October 28, 2025. Was this the best crowd of the tour so far? Argentina will have two openers for their show, the first being Argentinian post-hardcore outfit Deny, whose latest record dropped earlier this month. Tracks like 'El Cielo' and 'Incendio' have been making waves, and will surely explode to life on the From Zero World Tour stage! If you're into Latin music but also want something heavy - check them out! Following them will be the rising metal queen Poppy, a highly requested performer for the tour's opening slot! Opening her set with 'have you had enough' from her latest record Negative Spaces, the pop-singer-turned-metal-star dives into her discography during her set with other classics like 'BLOODMONEY,' 'Scary Mask,' and her collaboration with Bad Omens,' 'V.A.N.' She joined Linkin Park onstage at the tour's opening night in Bogotá, Colombia for 'One Step Closer' but didn't come out in Lima - seems like there's only a chance she'll make an appearance in Argentina, but we're hoping to see the collaboration happen again, especially since a pro-shot is coming our way! If you can make it to the venue early to see the opening acts, get ready to jam! Who's going to the show? Weatherman Rogue Soul reporting in to tell you that it looks like a beautiful and cool day is ahead for Buenos Aires, with sunny skies forecasted and a high temperature of 22°C and a low of 15°C - so dress comfortably and get ready to go crazy! Linkin Park's From Zero South American Tour continues next week in Santiago, Chile and the start of their mini-Brazilian Tour in Curitiba.

The From Zero World Tour is back on the road, and it's already off to a massive start in South America! The band continue their streak of comebacks in continent with their next show in Lima, Peru at the Estadio San Marcos on October 28, 2025 - their second show in the country ever! Linkin Park's first and only other performance in the country was in 2017, the third of four shows on the One More Light South American Tour that started the cycle. Opening with the legendary 'Roads Untraveled' and 'Fallout' mashup, the band launched into 'Talking To Myself,' 'Burn It Down,' and 'The Catalyst,' leaving a statement with their opening run. The band's headlining set had just debuted at the previous show in Santiago, Chile, seeing the addition of 'Waiting For The End' and 'Invisible' (being played in front of a proper audience for the first time), as well as the full band live debut of 'One More Light.' Mike spoke about the title track at the show, explaining that they made the decision to have a title track in the first place because the song captured the core of the album, and they wanted to shine a little extra light on it. Other tracks from One More Light made it into the set, including 'Good Goodbye' and 'Battle Symphony.' This tour was almost as much fun as the From Zero World Tour has been to follow, and it's one we at LPLive will never forget! The good energy in Peru will definitely keep up at this show! The 2017 stop was one that was commonly known at the time around the fan community as "the show that sold out twice" - the initial demand for Linkin Park in Lima was so high that the show sold out immediately. The promoter received a lot of requests for another show from fans, but commented that the band's schedule would only allow them to perform one show in Lima. Instead, the stadium was restructured to allow thousands more seats for sale at a later time... which also sold out immediately. This show was attended by fans across the world as it was a new destination for the band, and these fans reported a full-on carnival/festival-type of atmosphere in the streets outside the venue for days beforehand. ALSO... one of Chester's favorite gifts he's ever received at a show... from the Lima 2017 show! If you have not seen the show, you should definitely check out the full performance as that is a really good One More Light era show... to a massive crowd! Linkin Park's debut show in Lima, Peru at the Estadio Nacional on May 11, 2017! The 2017 South American Tour was a wild ride to cover, much like this one is shaping up to be! Linkin Park kicked off their South American tour in Bogotá, Colombia, also performing in the country for their second time ever! The band brought out Set A ('Castle Of Glass' theme) to start off the run, a massive opening of Inception Intro A into 'Somewhere I Belong.' Act I saw 'Popints Of Authority,' 'Up From The Bottom' out of its regular position, and 'Crawling' as rotations before 'From Zero (Intro)' into 'The Emptiness Machine' wrapped up the first act. Act II saw 'Over Each Other' where 'Up From The Bottom' is usually played and the return of 'Lies Greed Misery' and 'IGYEIH' as rotations - but the surprises didn't end there. During the act finale, 'One Step Closer,' opening act Poppy came out to perform the song with them! 'Stained' moved into the Act III rotation after 'Lost,' while 'From The Inside' made its return to the Act IV rotation. 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' closed out the main set, leaving for an epic ending of 'Papercut,' In The End,' and 'Faint' as the encore. Despite there being no Colin Control jams for 'Numb' at this show, Mike did whip out Verse 3 of 'Until It Breaks' during his solo medley, 'A Place For My Head' during the bridge of 'Bleed It Out,' and played Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy The Silence' over the extended intro of 'Overflow.' A pretty massive start to the leg! Linkin Park's full show at Vive Claro - Distrito Cultural in Bogotá, Colombia on October 25, 2025. A huge tour opener for South America, we can only expect the shows to get bigger and better from here! With Set A starting off the leg, it seems like Set B ('Iridescent' theme) is most likely next for Lima. The set rotations change based on whatever the band is feeling for the city, but we can take a look back at the last Set B as reference for what could be coming. The setlist was last performed in Portland, Oregon a few shows before the North American Tour wrapped up. Act I was pretty much the same as it was in Bogotá: 'Points Of Authority,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'Crawling,' though Act II looked a little different, with 'Unshatter' being performed in the normal 'Up From The Bottom' spot. 'Castle Of Glass' and a rare 'Keys To The Kingdom' were also unleashed upon Portland for the band's first show in the city in twenty-one years. 'Stained' adorned Act III's rotation like in Bogotá, but 'Let You Fade' made its way into Act IV, making it the first setlist to feature all three bonus tracks from From Zero. 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' closed this show verse the 'Faint' closer, too. Anything is possible with how the band plays around with the setlist nowadays, though songs still remaining to appear on this leg include: 'Castle Of Glass' (this one is pretty much guaranteed to pop up), 'Keys To The Kingdom,' 'Lying From You,' 'Casualty,' 'Unshatter,' 'Let You Fade,' 'A Place For My Head,' and 'Good Things Go,' so the band has a lot of potential to draw from for tonight. What do you think will make an appearance for Peru? Opening the leg is none other than one of metal's top women right now: Poppy! Her blend of electronica, pop, and metal has led her to new heights of popularity in recent years, and her opening spot on the From Zero World Tour is certainly a welcome treat! Her set opens with 'have you had enough' from her latest record, 2024's Negative Spaces before launching into live classic 'BLOODMONEY.' Other cuts from the new record include 'the cost of giving up' and 'they're all around us,' while older tracks such as 'Scary Mask' and 'Concrete' keep things going through the set. She whips out her collaboration with Bad Omens, 'V.A.N.' in her set as well, closing things out with 'new way out.' That's not all the action you'll get from her, as she guests with the band during 'One Step Closer,' as well! Be sure to get to the venue early to catch her set if you can make it! Linkin Park and Poppy performing 'One Step Closer' live at Vive Claro - Distrito Cultural in Bogotá, Colombia on October 25, 2025! Expect this to be a normal occurrence for the tour - so get ready for it in Peru! Who's going to the show? I would like to apologize to the people of Colombia as I forgot to do a weather report in the last post... hopefully it was nice out! As for Lima, you're looking at a typical mostly cloudy and humid day - temperatures will be up to 22°C and down to 16°C at night, so stay dry and get ready to jam! The From Zero South American Tour continues this week with a show in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Halloween that'll be broadcast live on Flow TV before continuing to Santiago, Chile at the start of November.

After a much needed month off for both Linkin Park and the fans alike, the From Zero World Tour is back in business! The band are bringing the tour back to South America for their largest tour of the continent ever (both show-wise and attendance wise), kicking things off where it all began for the continent on this tour: in Bogotá, Colombia at the Distrito Verde on October 25, 2025! This will be the band's second performance ever in Colombia, having made their debut in the country last year in November 2024 on the first leg of the From Zero World Tour - making it less than 12 months since the band played their last show in the city! The last show was the band's first concert in South America since May 2017 at the Maximus Festival in São Paulo, Brazil (where they will play later on the tour), and the energy was unreal for their return. The band ran through Set C (with 'Burn It Down' vocals on the interludes) at this show, playing new jams like 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Casualty' (the audio of which was released officially on the deluxe edition of From Zero) alongside classics being dusted off in a new light, many of which haven't been performed in 2025 like 'Breaking The Habit' and 'Leave Out All The Rest.' While the setlist delivered with huge moments like 'My December' and 'A Place For My Head' in the encore, not everything went exactly to plan. The band experienced their first real technical difficulties of the new era, with 'The Emptiness Machine' having many issues starting from the second verse, where only the backing track was audible for the rest of the song. The band paused the show for a few minutes to sort out the issues, and played the whole song a second time by request of the crowd - to this day, Bogotá still claims one of the loudest 'Emptiness Machine' sing-a-longs of the entire tour! Another pause in the set came after 'The Catalyst,' and from there it was smooth sailing as the band ripped through the rest of the setlist. With experience now under their belt, Linkin Park are ready to rock Colombia again at an even bigger venue this time - and hopefully they'll get an unproblematic performance of 'The Emptiness Machine!' Linkin Park's full performance at the Coliseo Medplus in Bogotá, Colombia on November 11, 2024. While it feels like the setlist hasn't changed much since the start of the tour, watching this back really shows otherwise. Perhaps we'll see some different rotations on this next leg? The band's last show was in Seattle, Washington, topping off the North American Leg of the tour, which was full of fun and surprises. Ending the pre-show playlist with 'Black Hole Sun' by Soundgarden, the band launched into Set A (with the 'Castle Of Glass' theme), delivering one last setlist for the United States and keeping us doing show coverage on our toes right to the very end! Act I of the setlist featured 'Lying From You,' 'Stained,' and 'Crawling' as rotations, while Act II brought 'Castle Of Glass' (instead of 'Lies Greed Misery') and 'Casualty,' with Mike rapping verse one of 'Nobody's Listening' over his solo medley - the first time the song had appeared in a Linkin Park setlist since August 2007 in Noblesville, Indiana and the first time that specific verse appeared in a Linkin Park set since Mansfield, Massachusetts on Projekt Revolution 2007 just a week earlier. Mike also rapped this verse on the Post Traumatic Tour, during the live version of 'Lift Off' in Ludwigsburg, Germany in March 2019. Act III continued with 'Lost' with its piano start into the full band and 'Over Each Other' as the rotation, before Act IV wrapped up the main set with a punk rock-style 'Numb/Encore' intro and subsequent jam outro for 'Numb' and 'A Place For My Head.' 'Heavy Is The Crown' and 'Bleed It Out' wrapped up the main set, leading to an old-school finale of 'Papercut,' 'In The End,' and 'Faint.' The band really started mixing things up on a nightly basis throughout the North American leg, and even though the South American leg isn't as long, we're sure there'll be just as many surprises between shows! Linkin Park's full show at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington on September 24, 2025. The North American leg really saw the band catch their stride with one epic show after another - and we can't wait to see how explosive these South American shows get! It's hard to say what to expect for the tour kick-off in Colombia, but it seems likeliest that the band will either reset their performance order and play Set A in Bogotá - though they could realistically whip out any of the three sets for the beginning of the leg. It doesn't seem too likely that the band will add anything new into the set now that the entirety of From Zero (deluxe tracks included) has been performed, but anything is possible - the last "revival" of an old song was 'Lies Greed Misery' at the start of the North American Leg at Boston night two, and earlier this year 'From The Inside' made its comeback in Mexico. Of Emily's favorite songs ('Where'd You Go' and 'Lies Greed Misery,' namely), the only that remains to be seen in the set is 'Blackout' - if that song made a comeback in South America, god only knows how the crowds would erupt. 'Unshatter' made its live debut in Los Angeles, California well passed the mid-way point of the tour after the band worked it up at soundcheck for a few shows, so its possible we don't see a debut (if one is coming) for a few shows. Regardless, 'Unshatter' definitely needs some more play time, as does 'From The Inside,' which had been sort of side-lined by the end of the leg. What are your predictions for this show and tour coming up? Opening the South American leg of the From Zero World Tour will be Poppy, who has been highly requested by fans to be part of the tour! After starting off as a more electronic-art pop project initially, Poppy in recent years has made the full transition to metal, delivering thrilling tracks like 'BLOODMONEY' and 'new way out.' She just dropped a new single called 'Unravel' today, and recently hit us with the ultimate metal collaboration track alongside Amy Lee of Evanescence and Courtney LaPlante from Spiritbox: 'End Of You.' Her latest record, 2024's negative spaces, is full of huge tracks as well like 'they're all around us' and 'vital,' as well as tracks that show her range like 'crystallized.' Along with collaborations with artists including BABYMETAL, Knocked Loose, and Bad Omens, Poppy has quite the discography to draw from and will definitely be an epic opener for this tour - if you can arrive early enough to see her, be sure you don't miss her! Poppy's new song 'Unravel,' which could see its live debut in Colombia! Who's going to the show? Linkin Park's South American tour continues into the next week with shows coming up in Lima, Peru and Buenos Aires, Argentina (which looks like may be streamed), and we'll have you updated on all of it.

I might've missed the due date on this one, but the night has only just begun! Linkin Park will be wrapping up the second North American leg of the From Zero World Tour TONIGHT in Seattle, Washington in the city's new arena, the Climate Pledge Arena! This will be Linkin Park's twelfth show in the area and first in Seattle itself since 2003 - so we have a lot to catch up on. This will be their first show in the area since 2014, when they performed at the gorgeous Gorge Amphitheater in George, Washington on the Carnivores Tour with Thirty Seconds To Mars. This setlist were the first to see the band experiment with "acts," which they have since refined and adapted to the current tour! New songs like 'Rebellion,' 'Guilty All The Same,' and 'Final Masquerade' came out with guns blazing while the band took their set through emotional highs and lows. Prior to this, the band played in the city of Tacoma south of Seattle back in 2012 on the Honda Civic Tour with Incubus, delivering a rare Set C that saw them open with 'With You' featuring the Game Of Thrones theme over the extended intro, as well as other treats like 'In My Remains' and 'Victimized (w/ QWERTY).' Jumping back five years, Linkin Park played their first show of Projekt Revolution 2007 in nearby Auburn, the first show on the first tour in the band's history to feature rotating setlists! The debut of Set C saw the band open with their go-to at the time, 'One Step Closer' with the Gunshot Intro into 'Lying From You' and 'Somewhere I Belong.' 'Wake' and 'Shadow Of The Day' got their live debuts at this show, while 'No More Sorrow,' 'Bleed It Out,' and 'The Little Things Give You Away' received new extensions. This was also the first show of the DSP Program - full recordings of almost every show between July 2007 and November 2012 were released for purchase after the shows! Linkin Park's full show at the Sleep Train Amphitheater in Auburn, Washington on July 25, 2007. This was the first Projekt Revolution show in three years, and the very first DSP to ever be released! This one features a particularly raw mix compared to others. The band's last visit in Washington was in 2004 on the Winter North American Tour, their first headlining show at the Tacoma Dome. This epic setlist featured a bunch of songs we'd die to see today, including full performances of 'It's Goin' Down,' 'Nobody's Listening,' and 'P5hng Me A*wy.' The band's last time in Seattle proper was just two months before this show in December 2003, the second-to-last show of the year where they headlined The End's Deck The Hall Ball - a shorter set than what they played a few months later with roughly all the same songs, but Seattle did get to witness some special moments, including Davey Havok from AFI (who opened for the band earlier this year in Mexico!) joining them for 'One Step Closer' at the end of the set! Linkin Park hit Seattle earlier in the year on the Summer Sanitarium tour, opening for Metallica at the Seahawks Stadium. The set was the same as the legendary Live In Texas DVD, with epic moments like 'By Myself' with its 2003 intro, 'Figure.09,' 'From The Inside,' and more! Linkin Park played in Seattle a whopping six times, the last of which was their first performance at The End's Deck The Hall Ball in December 2001 - we don't know much about this show, but we do know that the band played a short cover of Guns N' Roses' 'Sweet Child O' Mine' and that Aaron Lewis from Staind came out to sing on 'One Step Closer!' Just a month earlier, the band played their first ever show at the Tacoma Dome for the closing night of the Family Values Tour, featuring an awesome set with treats like DJ Lethal of Limp Bizkit guesting on 'Step Up' and Linkin Park (and the rest of the bands on the tour) coming out onstage during Stone Temple Pilots' set for 'Sex Type Thing,' and Chester came out to sing 'Dead & Bloated' with them as well. The band played a prank on the band Deadsy at this show too, playing golf on their stage during their show. The Ozzfest that summer brought the band to the Gorge Amphitheater for the first time, with the band opening with the epic combo of 'With You' and 'Runaway' before diving into the hits like 'Papercut' and 'Crawling.' The band kicked off their very first headlining tour ever - the Street Soldiers Tour - in January 2001 in Seattle, a show that featured the live debuts of 'Crawling,' 'Pushing Me Away,' and 'High Voltage.' 'Crawling' technically got its debut earlier in the day at a radio event with fans - The End's Endsession. We don't have the setlist or much info at all on Linkin Park's very first show in Seattle, which took place on the Kottonmouth Kings' Ridin' High Tour, but we do know it was a very special day in Linkin Park history. Their set in Seattle took place on October 24, 2000 - the release date of Hybrid Theory! Having finished his tour with The Snax, Phoenix reunited with the band in Seattle (though he didn't start playing with them until the next tour) so that they could celebrate the release of their album together and hopefully be the first to buy it at the a record store - Phoenix is quoted saying he hoped they'd sell around 3,000 copies. Little did they know at the time that a record that would change music history itself had just come out - and the rest is history. In some ways, it all really began for this band that day in Seattle, and that brings us all the way to today, where history is bound to continue to be made! Linkin Park performing at The End's Endsession on January 16, 2001 - this short radio set for fans features the live debut of 'Crawling!' The last run of North American shows on the From Zero World Tour has definitely kept us on the edge of our seats (and for us east-coast based staff members, away from our beds), and that was no different at the last stop in Vancouver, British Columbia! The band's final stop in Canada for the year brought all the stops, with 'Crawling,' 'Lying From You,' and 'New Divide' making their way into Act I. 'Up From The Bottom' resumed its regular spot in Act II before 'Lies Greed Misery' made another appearance, while 'IGYEIH' and a verse of 'Lift Off' during 'When They Come For Me/Remember The Name' rounded up the act. 'Stained' was played in Act III for a second show in a row, before Emily and Mike noticed someone dressed in a full dog suit in the crowd before 'Numb' and things really went off the rails, from Emily barking at the crowd to the band playing a Johnny Cash-inspired 'Numb/Encore' intro, tying it all up with a country jam outro (that ended up as a punk jam) that concluded with Emily once again barking. The band seems to be having more fun than ever at these last shows with both the crowd and the setlists, rounding up the surprises for the night with 'Over Each Other' in Act IV. There is really no telling what the band will whip out for the final show of this run tonight, but we can say that they have a great track record with tour-closers: Welcome To Rockville (which closed the first leg of the North American dates earlier this year) saw a surprise 'A Place For My Head' and the live debut of 'Let You Fade,' while the European Tour finale in Paris, France saw the band really experiment with the set. Seattle is queued up for Set A tonight, which was last played in Sacramento, California and featured the following rotations: 'Lying From You,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'New Divide' in Act I, 'Stained,' 'Lies Greed Misery,' and 'Casualty' in Act II, 'Over Each Other' in Act III, 'A Place For My Head' in Act IV, and an 'In The End'/'Faint' closer. The ending of 'Numb' from the band's show at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia on September 21, 2025, featuring the conclusion to what we can call the "barking incident." Who's going to the show? JPEGMAFIA will be opening this final show on the leg, and his indie hip-hop hits like 'Lean Beef Patty' and 'SCARING THE HOES' will definitely get the night off to an energetic start - and we're still holding out hope that he'll come out to guest for a song with the band tonight! Weatherman Rogue Soul here to report a beautiful Pacific Northwest day for the final night of the North American Tour, with the high of 71°F now starting dropping down to the low of 53°F - be sure to bundle up for later in the night and be ready to jam! If my ex is there, I can only apologize. This cannot be predicted in my forecast. Linkin Park will have the next month off before resuming the From Zero World Tour for its first proper leg in South America in late October and early November, hitting stops in Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina! The year will wrap up with one final show in Mexico, where the band will headline the Corona Capital festival in mid-November.

A few new interviews have popped up over the last week, one being one of the first with Alex Feder by Andertons Music Co., finally getting some insight to his playing and how he geared up for the touring guitarist position, as well as some backstory on him: And another with Mike Shinoda with Czech media that just had its English translation released, which is actually pretty cool and dives into Mike's own history as well as his music. That one can be viewed on their website here. Additionally, over the past few weeks, Adamson System Engineering have been doing quick videos introducing some key players in the crew behind the From Zero World Tour to their channel - if you want some insight to what goes on behind the scenes on tour work-wise, check these out!

We're a little late to the party today, but luckily things are only getting started! Linkin Park brings the From Zero World Tour back to Canada for one more show on the west coast, this time returning to Vancouver, British Columbia for the first time since 2012 for a show at the Rogers Arena tonight, September 21, 2025! This will be Linkin Park's fourth show in the city of Vancouver, and their first in thirteen years! The band last performed in the city in 2012 on an off-date during the Honda Civic Tour with Incubus (apparently Honda simply doesn't bring the Civic Tour to Canada) for the first show ever at tonight's venue, delivering Set A which opened with 'Tinfoil' into 'Faint.' Lots of rare Living Things tracks were performed, including 'In My Remains' and 'Victimized (w/ QWERTY),' as well as more familiar hits like 'Lost In The Echo' and 'Burn It Down' still fresh off the presses. Other memorable moments include the extended intros and outros the band added to many songs, including the Wall Of Noise Outro and Apaches Intro with a verse of 'Until It Breaks' for 'Waiting For The End' and the extended intro for 'Lost In The Echo' that featured sounds from the LPU-released demo 'Holding Company.' Mike Einziger from Incubus also came out to play guitar at the end of the show during 'Bleed It Out,' after the band jammed to 'Sabotage' by the Beastie Boys. Prior to this, Linkin Park last played in Vancouver in February 2004 on the Meteora Winter North American Tour, which is another setlist we didn't have any information for until I stumbled across one about five minutes ago while comparing our notes to setlist.fm. According to an attendee of the show, it looks like Vancouver saw a pretty typical setlist from this time, barring 'P5hng Me A*wy' in the encore which seems to have been dropped for an unknown reason. This was Linkin Park's last show in Canada of the Meteora World Tour, and similarly to the From Zero World Tour also saw stops in Montréal and Toronto. The setlist at this time was packed full of goods even despite the one dropped song, with Vancouver seeing the likes of 'It's Goin' Down' and 'Nobody's Listening' in full, as well as a killer opening of the iconic 'With You' and 'Runaway' combo, and an encore opener of 'My December' to top things all off. Funny enough, this is the fourth setlist I've added to our live guide in the last run of shows the band has done after just comparing notes and asking you guys who had been to some of the older shows. If you have any info on any of the old shows we don't have much information on in our live guide, send any staff a message or fill out the contact form on Linkinpedia! For those who want to stay up to date, the new additions to the live guide this past week include: Sacramento 2001, San Jose 2004, North Little Rock 2004 (thanks to LPLive member rav0k), and now Vancouver 2004! Three shows from this one 2004 tour alone so far - if anyone's got anything else, let us know! This includes Linkin Park's very first show in the city back in November 2001 at The Orpheum, right before the Countdown To Revolution Tour. What we do know about this show is that according to a tour itinerary that was discovered, we found out that the tour production rehearsals began in Kansas City the next week, leaving this show and one in Bakersfield, California as one-offs before the real tour began. Linkin Park opening their show at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia on September 4, 2012 with 'Tinfoil' and 'Faint.' Linkin Park's last show on the From Zero World Tour took place in Portland, Oregon, their first show in the city since 2004! They returned in a big way, performing one of our favorite versions of the current setlist we've seen the whole tour so far! Whipping out and modifying Set B, the band immediately started making changes to the set from its last performance, with 'Points Of Authority,' 'Up From The Bottom,' and 'Crawling' rotating into Act I before 'The Emptiness Machine,' preceded by 'From Zero (Intro),' ended the first part of the show. Act II followed suit with 'Unshatter' moving down to an earlier spot for the first time, before Mike showed some love to The Hunting Party (for once!) with the second appearance on tour of the first verse of 'Wastelands,' followed quickly by a full 'Keys To The Kingdom,' being performed for the first time since the second night in Montréal earlier on the tour! 'Stained' returned to its old spot in the ballad rotation in Act III, before 'Let You Fade' also made its return to the set (after having not been performed since Denver, Colorado at the start of the month), leading to a huge new feat: the band performed all three bonus tracks from From Zero in one set! On top of all of these treats, the band was having a lot of fun with this show, constantly referring to some fans dressed up as bananas throughout the show and really taking some jams to another level, with both Disco and Punk styles coming out for the end of 'Numb' and Emily singing the whole bridge of 'In The End' for the first time! Mike even showed off his classical piano training by playing 'Für Elise' over the intro of 'Overflow' for the first time! With such a huge comeback in Oregon, we're sure the band's return to Vancouver will be just as huge. Vancouver is lined up for Set C ('Burn It Down' theme), but with how much the band has been changing things up lately, we're not sure how much that really means beyond the interlude lyrics! What we can report is that Set C was last played in San Jose, California last week, and featured the following rotations: 'Points Of Authority,' 'Stained,' and 'New Divide' in Act I, 'Castle Of Glass' and 'IGYEIH' in Act II, 'Unshatter' in Act III, and 'Good Things Go' in Act IV. We're sure the band will change some things up for this show from the last Set C, and we'll keep you posted on everything that does happen at the show! Linkin Park's full show at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon on September 19, 2025. If you missed the live coverage of this set, definitely check this show out as it was some of the most fun the band has had on tour yet, and had one of the best setlists of the whole year! Who's going? JPEGMAFIA will be opening the show with his indie hip-hop blend, featuring hits like 'Lean Beef Patty' and 'Sacring The Hose' warming the crowd up. Don't miss his set if you can make it early - with time running out, we're hoping to see an onstage collaboration during Linkin Park's set, too, to follow through with the rest of the openers on this North American leg. Weatherman Rogue Soul reporting a pretty but cool day up in the Pacific Northwest, with the high of 16°C now dropping to the low of 12°C at night, so be sure to be bundled up for later in the night! Linkin Park has one final show of their North American run this year on Wednesday, where they will wrap the leg up in Seattle, Washington before having a month off. The tour resumes at the end of October with one final leg of the year in South America, with stops in Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and more! With all the recent Linkinpedia updates we've been doing as far as the show pages show, we'd like your help in expanding them further! We are looking for pictures or scans of a number of items from the band's 2025 tour, including wristbands, tickets, setlists, exclusive pop-up store content, and more. If you have anything to contribute, check out our thread on the matter and submit your pictures directly to us - if they meet the mark we will get them uploaded to the show pages and credit you (and also blur your information out where applicable)! Be sure to check out the site to see our recent changes to the show pages (including marked rotation songs, album breakdowns, and more statistics) if you haven't already, and enjoy the upgrades to our LPLive and Linkinpedia servers with faster loading times on both sites! We've also recently launched an LPLive Newsletter for those looking for more of a TL;DR version of what's going on with the tour than my pre-show posts - we'll be sending it out every couple of weeks so as to not flood your inbox, but we'll be bringing you an overview of both tour and general news updates in these, so be sure to sign up if you haven't already! We'll have you covered on everything the band does at this show and everything they whip out for the rest of the year, so be sure to sign up on the forums and follow us on social media (Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook)!
