Great post, I actually agree with a lot of it (even though I'm 14 ). To be fair I've played for 4 years now so I'm above the level of "I CAN TREMOLO PICK LOOK AT ME!" To be fair, I feel that the Faint solo until about 2009 was at least somewhat more 'advanced' but since then it's really gone down hill. AFN and FM's solos sound like the only ones that actually contribute to the overall context of the song. I'd even say MTG's could apply to that. The rest of them sound over the place, KTTK, GATS, even War could still have been interesting without their solos (though I guess War kinda packs everything that genre has into it). They could definitely be more thought out, or even played with regards of key and rhythm.

Lying From You

The thing is, let's face it, right now, Thirty Seconds To Mars is more relevant than Incubus. Don't get me wrong, I love Incubus, but do they really have anything going for them right now? MARS has an Oscar-winner for a lead singer and has a huge single out right now. Don't forget MARS is independent now, so they have to do manage all the marketing/promotion/touring costs themselves, while still apparently a million dollars in debt. Money's going to have to add up $15 dollars is nothing compared to what they could really charge for this. Also, as ctgerrard said, as much as I wouldn't like this to get recorded/leaked, it probably will. The only thing is you can share it as you want but there's no telling how long it'll take before it gets taken down. They're really quick on that. So, instead of complaining about something that's beneficial to us as a fan community and beneficial to a new platform that can easily do the same kind of thing at another time, let's have positive thoughts.

They re-released the 2012 VyRTs but your point is valid nonetheless.

What makes this a joke lol? Some people need an incentive to do something, and it's pretty much only been MARS-related. This is something that will cater towards LP fans now.

Awesome news! Guitar Center is probably one of my favorite places ever, awesome to see the band doing something in association with them.

We're at the halfway point of the Carnivores Tour! The 13th stop on the tour will take Linkin Park, Thirty Seconds To Mars, and AFI back for one last show in Canada (or, as I've affectionately referred to it as, the land of maple syrup) at the MTS Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This will be Linkin Park's first time playing in Winnipeg, therefore there's no history lesson to give today! You can put your pens and pencils down for today On the 26th, Linkin Park performed a regular run through of Set B in Falcon Heights, Minnesota, with a few interesting notes. As far as the performance went, everything was as it usually was, though Mike's Solo Medley had a false start. Another awesome piece of information is that when 'Remember The Name' kicked in, Mike shouted out our Linkin Park Guru, Astat, who was wearing his Fort Minor shirt at the show! Congrats Astat! Joe's and Rob's "cages" that would move up and down during their respective solos were not used at the show, due to the production of the show being scaled down to fit with the standards of the event. To wrap it all up, a fireworks display occurred after Linkin Park's set. This is the first time pyro has been used at the Linkin Park event since 2012, in Johannesburg. The last time fireworks were used at a Linkin Park show was in Moscow in 2012. Other cool facts about the show include Mike rapping a 'hybrid' verse of 'Remember The Name' over his medley, Mike rapping 'Points Of Authority' over the intro of 'Until It's Gone', and the band performed the new 2014 Version of 'Dirt Off Your Shoulder/Lying From You'. Check out more information from the show in Falcon Heights at it's show page! Check out this performance of 'Somewhere I Belong' a few days ago at the Carnivores Tour stop at the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, Massachusetts! We're glad it's back in the setlists, but coincidentally was the least voted for song in our 2014 Live Poll. The most voted for songs were 'A Place For My Head', 'By Myself', 'No More Sorrow', and 'When They Come For Me', all of which have been rehearsed for the Carnivores Tour, but didn't make the cut for the final setlists. 'A Place For My Head' appeared in a version of Set A early in the day at Darien Center, but was dropped before the show. What songs would you like to see on the Carnivores Tour? You may be wondering how Thirty Seconds To Mars and AFI are doing on the tour. Well, they're doing amazing! AFI's set consisted of their singles like 'I Hope You Suffer', 'The Leaving Song Pt. II', and 'Miss Murder', as well as some deeper album cuts like 'Medicate' and 'Silver and Cold'. AFI has been playing the same setlist for awhile now, but at the beginning of the tour, there were some changes. At the two Florida shows, the band performed 'A Single Second' and 'Beautiful Thieves', which they have been reluctant to play for the rest of the tour. Maybe they'll bring back those songs, or quite possibly some others on the tour! Thirty Seconds To Mars played a very energetic set, opening up with an old-school throwback: Carl Orff's 'Carmina Burana: O Fortuna' and their new hit single, 'Up In The Air'. They performed their other big singles such as 'Do Or Die' and 'This Is War', as well as some other songs like 'End Of All Days' and 'Conquistador' from their latest album, Love Lust Faith + Dreams. During the acoustic set Jared Leto went out into the crowd to perform some songs by request, including the band's biggest hit, 'The Kill'. Lastly, during their encore song, 'Closer To The Edge', Jared brought up fans from the crowd, including LPLive Member, BIBBLE! Congrats, sir! Who's excited to see AFI and MARS on the Carnivores Tour? Speaking of seeing the Carnivores Tour, if you've been unable to see any performance on the tour but really want to, you're in luck! Thirty Seconds To Mars' and Linkin Park's sets from the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA on September 15, 2014 will be streamed via Jared Leto's online ticketing company, VyRT. You can purchase a ticket here for as low as $15! If you're interested in just listening to a few recordings of Linkin Park, you're in luck, as audience recordings from various shows have started popping up! You can download a FLAC recording of the band's set in Darien Center, or a MP3 recording of their set in Bristow, recorded by LPLive member abrandnewname! Lots of awesome things going on this week for LPLive members, that's three in one thread! Maybe YOU'LL be next! Who's heading to the show? Be sure to stop by the Music For Relief booth to donate to help the efforts going forward to defeat the ebola epidemic currently occurring in Africa. A very noble cause. After this show, the band has a one day break before heading to Tinley Park, Illinois and Clarkston, Michigan before a week long break. A very well deserved break, if you ask me! Check out the rest of Linkin Park's 2014 touring schedule here.

You want mainly proshots or both proshots and aud recordings?

Don't goddamn remind me that school starts next week >_> I'm still doing the pre-show posts haha, Mark was just itching to do one

I get a break for the day haha. Yay I'm glad to help! This is probably one of the best communities out there, I'm glad to be such a big part of it now

I updated the show page. I've decided I'll do my "Setlist Enthusiast" information during the beginnings of the tour.

Did you answer your own question? lmao

Setlist A_V5 tonight! We don't know if APFMH is on it though, because the bastard who took the pic clearly is teasing us! Can't see what's below BIO, if there is any!

Chester did the full GU scream in Montreal 2008 (mentioned that in the Montreal pre-show post ) Set A tonight, just some speculation about Set A_V5! Set B was in Montreal. The show in Los Angeles on September 15 is the show being streamed, not this one.

The Carnivores Tour is still in the land of maple syrup! Linkin Park, Thirty Seconds To Mars, and AFI are playing their next show on the Carnivores Tour in Toronto, Canada at the Air Canada Centre. Linkin Park has been playing Toronto for years, ever since 2000! The band has performed in Toronto in 2000, twice in 2001 (1, 2), 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008 and 2011, totaling in a huge 8 times prior to this show, a record so far for the cities that the Carnivores Tour has been to thus far! In 2000, the band's first show in Canada, they opened with 'A Place For My Head' (which has recently appeared in a new version of Set A, and is currently leading in our 2014 Live Poll for songs that fans want to see on the Carnivores Tour!). On night one of 2001, the show opened with 'With You', that featured an extended show opener intro that featured Guns N' Roses' 'Welcome To The Jungle'. The second night of 2001 saw Total Eclipse and Mista Sinista from X-Ecutioners play a short DJ set after 'A Place For My Head', which resulted in the dropping of 'Forgotten'. All at a good price, however, as that's the only confirmed time that's happened! Additionally, Chester came out and sang 'Dead & Bloated' with Stone Temple Pilots. Ironic, huh? In 2003, the band played the second show of the famous Summer Sanitarium Tour with the likes of Metallica, Limp Bizkit, Deftones, and Mudvayne. They performed songs like 'Don't Stay' and 'P5hng Me A*wy', which haven't been played in quite some time! In 2004, Sonny from P.O.D. and Doug from Hoobastank came out to perform 'One Step Closer' with the band! In 2007, Mike rapped the second verse of 'High Voltage' over the extended intro of 'Points Of Authority'. Mike and Chester also had a funny moment: at the time, the band usually performed a sing-a-long bridge for 'Bleed It Out', with the crowd singing "Ohh, ohh!". The two changed it up to "Ehh, ehh!" just for Canada! In 2008, the band played a very interesting setlist. The band was late due to having troubles at the airport, so they all got to the show at different times. Mike and Chester were first to arrive, and started the show with piano versions of 'Breaking The Habit' and 'Pushing Me Away'. To save a little more time, Mike extended the intro of 'What I've Done' by rapping verse 1 of 'Hands Held High' over a piano piece. Another issues they encountered at the show were that the lights went out in the middle of 'A Place For My Head', and didn't turn back on until the bridge of 'One Step Closer'! Lastly, Scott Weiland, the ex-vocalist of Stone Temple Pilots was asking where Chester was while they performed, essentially inviting him onstage like he did in 2001. Finally, most recently in 2011, the band and the crowd sang 'Happy Birthday' to Phoenix after 'Shadow Of The Day'! Awesome! This concludes our history lesson of Linkin Park in Toronto. You better have been taking notes, this will all be on the test! The previous show in Montreal saw the band performing Set B, featuring the 2014 Version of 'Dirt Off You Shoulder/Lying From You' and the studio version of 'Somewhere I Belong'. Mike performed a "hybrid" verse of 'Remember The Name' over his solo medley. If the pattern continues, Set A will be performed tonight in Toronto. However, there's some speculation about Set A, regarding some potential changes. If you've seen any of the setlist pictures of Set A, you may have noticed that the set is labeled as "Set A_V4", which indicates that this they've been performing the fourth edit of this version of Set A. At the summit in Darien Center, we found a new version of the setlist, entitled "Set A_V5". The only change (which is quite an awesome change) is 'A Place For My Head' closing out the show after 'Bleed It Out'. What a great addition! Would you like to see 'A Place For My Head' close the show, or have it somewhere else in the set? Regardless, it would be a welcome return! Will the band play Set A_V4 tonight, or debut Set A_V5? Time will tell! Another interesting fact is that we've recently learned that the band has rehearsed a bunch of songs that didn't make the cut for the Carnivores Tour setlist (yet). Those songs include 'Breaking The Habit', 'No More Sorrow', 'When They Come For Me', the full version of 'A Light That Never Comes', 'Wretches and Kings', and all the rarities from Hybrid Theory. If you're interested in songs that the band has rehearsed but not played, check out this thread! Check out this beautiful performance of 'Breaking The Habit' from Toronto in 2008! This was the only time that a piano version of the song was performed, and the only time the song ever opened a show in any form. Wow! Do you want to see the band bring back the song for the Carnivores Tour? AFI and Thirty Seconds To Mars are also making quite the impact during their performances on the Carnivores Tour! AFI performed their regular setlist, featuring singles like 'I Hope You Suffer', '17 Crimes' and 'Miss Murder'. They also threw some non-singles into the mix, like 'Medicate' and 'Sing Your Sorrow'. Thirty Seconds To Mars performed the same structured setlist, opening the show with Carl Orff's 'Carmina Burana: O Fortuna' and their hit, 'Up In The Air'. Their setlist featured other singles like 'This Is War', 'Kings and Queens', and 'Do Or Die', as well as some non-singles like 'Search and Destroy' and 'End Of All Days'. Jared changed things up during his acoustic set, as he always does: he performed a cool mashup of their songs 'Attack' and 'Hurricane', as well as a cover of Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance'. Afterwards, he performed the band's biggest hit, 'The Kill'. If you want to see Thirty Seconds To Mars and/or Linkin Park perform, but can't make it to any Carnivores Tour date, don't fear! One of Jared Leto's three companies, VyRT, is streaming the show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles! You can get more information here. Standard tickets go for $15. The team at VyRT even set up a special chatroom for LPU Members! If all goes well, we can expect Linkin Park to be using the platform for a bunch more shows in the future! The LPU team and the MARS team are getting pretty close too, maybe Carnivores 2.0 will be a possibility! Who's attending the show? Jonas, also known as AndOne, will be attending the show. This'll be his last show of the Carnivores Tour, having been attending shows since the rehearsal at West Palm Beach, meaning this will be his 11th show on the tour! Awesome! If you see him, be sure to say hi! Stop by the Music For Relief to make a donation to fight the ebola epidemic in Africa. A very noble cause! After this show, the band heads back to the States for a show in Minnesota, and back to Canada for one last show in Canada at Winnipeg! For updates on the show, check back here during the time of the show or follow us on Twitter! Check out the rest of Linkin Park's 2014 touring schedule here. New world record for longest pre-show post?!

What else would I be doing at midnight? I take time writing them up, patience

They 100% played Set B tonight, we're talking about tomorrow in Toronto!

Set A_V5 is now a possibility, don't forget. APFMH closing.

We can use this thread to discuss the current setlists! We know Set A_V5 is now a possibility, I feel it was something they just threw together. I feel if they do change the set, they'll use a Set A_V6, probably w/o APFMH closing, but in another spot.

Set B tonight.

Linkin Park: "Let's sort out all the possibilities for our artwork, and pick the shittiest one to be our album cover. Then we'll put all the mother of god art on the vinyl, so we can get more money!"

Easier To Run

Fucking Delson...

Lorenzo You're doing great on the LPU + Summits, keep it up!
