  1. lol @ anybody who actually expected MTV to broadcast the whole show.
  2. Most of the information in that Wikipedia article is totally correct. And chart positions are based purely on album sales...
  3. Maybe it's just the fact that I think they could've picked a better song to end the album with, but this song really hasn't grown on me at all. It's not my least favorite by far, but I'd probably put it in the bottom 1/3rd of the album. It's kind of...forgettable.

    DBS tabs

    I've been experimenting with Guitar Pro tabs a bit lately, I've done them for Crawl Back In and Inside of Me (Crawl Back In is posted on Ultimate-Guitar, Inside of Me is awaiting approval). Right now they're pretty much just transcriptions of my text tabs since I don't know any of the bass/keyboard/drum parts, but being able to play back your work is always a plus.
  5. Hunger Strike and Crawling are both from Burgettstown. There was supposed to be a joint LP/Chris Cornell Crawling/Hunger Strike radio single, and that's the show they were going to use for it (which is also why HHH is censored even on the DSP download, it was edited for radio). The single wound up not happening, so they used SFTU as another way of releasing them. We still don't know where My December is from. I keep meaning to do A/B comparisons with all the DSPs but I haven't gotten around to it.
  6. "Hybrid Theory...coming to you...in full, stereophonic sound..." "YOU CANNOT FUCK WITH THIS BAND!" Epic.
  7. *facepalm* Where the hell have you been the last few weeks? This is pretty much the only thing everybody's been talking about.
  8. I'm pretty sure this is the NYC Bitch Committee source that we've known about since pretty much the day after the show. Source info for recent shows is always slow to be uploaded because it takes some time to figure it all out.

    Too Late tabs are up now. I'm either going to do Let Down or Walking in Circles next, I haven't decided.
  10. http://www.lplive.net/shows/DBS/20091023.php "Ulalume" is spelled wrong (what the fuck does "Ulalume" even mean anyway?).
  11. Weird/random move, swapping Crawl Back In and End of the World. CBI's their only well-known song with the general public right now, so it should either be opening or closing shows. Not that End of the World isn't a good opener, but CBI being in the middle of the set doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
  12. On all DBS show pages, why does it say "The End of the World" and "The Morning After?" Neither of those songs have "The" at the beginning of their official titles. Fixed. Thanks
  13. I'm pretty sure they just roll with whatever one of the members is choosing to do. Mike's been known to drink from time to time, and Rob battled drug addictions as a teenager. They aren't "perfect" when it comes to being clean all the time, they just make sure it doesn't interfere with their creativity/performance - they have a pretty strict policy against the use of drugs/alcohol by anyone on their crew when they're on tour. Some musicians totally fall apart and lose their creative focus when they're going through substance abuse problems, others don't have a problem with it, and a few even thrive on it. Chester's said that he never really stopped writing songs even though he had effectively hit rock bottom, so I think as long as he's able to keep himself together in a creative and performing capacity (which he did throughout 2004-2006, when most of this was going on), whatever he chooses to do isn't a big issue with his bandmates. We all know they were concerned for his well-being, but it wasn't like he totally dropped out of the Linkin Park picture during that period. The hiatus was at least partially due to the conflicts with Warner - the gap between the end of the Meteora touring cycle and the release of MTM surely wouldn't have been as long as it was if they hadn't gone through the lawsuit and subsequent contract re-negotiations. I think even if Chester hadn't been going through problems, they still would've taken a break when they did, because they hadn't really had one since Hybrid Theory came out. They went in the studio to do Reanimation in 2002 right after Projekt Revolution ended, and there was only a gap of a couple weeks between the end of the Reanimation sessions and the start of the Meteora sessions. Working almost nonstop for 4 years straight is enough to burn any band out, even if they're totally healthy.
  14. Correct. They showed about 45 seconds of Let Down. Kimmel said the full performance would be uploaded on jimmykimmellive.net (like usual with the 2nd song), but for some reason it never was.
  15. Read it again...it says nowhere in there that those songs are "confirmed for the album," it just mentions them as working titles, which ARE official (other than "Vaporized"), in fact, most of the information in that article is directly copied from various blogs that Mike's posted.
  16. Welcome to 4 years ago. Chester's been wearing eyeliner since the BoW shows.
  17. Inside of Me. I'm more sick of Crawl Back In at this point, but Inside of Me is still a weaker song. BTW, I like Morning After better than both Inside of Me and Crawl Back In.
  18. Out of Ashes has debuted at #29 on the Billboard 200: http://www.billboard.com/charts/billboard-...s/billboard-200 It's also #12 in Rock Albums, #9 in Digital Albums and Alternative Albums, and #5 in Hard Rock Albums.

    Just finished Inside of Me. http://www.4shared.com/dir/21035369/399a37...By_Sunrise.html I'll probably do Too Late next.
  20. I'm just saying to look at shows that already have video sources listed. That still leaves a lot of possibilities.
  21. There are no known video sources for any of those shows guys...it's not like Mark/Nick or the rest of the LPL crew are going to not post source info on the liveguide for something they know exists just because they want to keep it a secret until they release it. That would undermine the purpose of the site, the liveguide is always top priority.
  22. It doesn't say anything about Dead By Sunrise or LP playing, it just says "appearances." This is just as much a press conference/media event as it is a concert, any of those music artists could be performing, speaking, or both. I wouldn't be surprised if DBS plays though. As for the LP Australian Idol contest, that seriously means absolutely nothing. No act is going to schedule a show just for the sake of falling within a contest's prize period, it's the people running the contest that are responsible for working around the touring schedules of the artists involved. First of all, the winner isn't even necessarily going to choose the pack that includes LP. And even if they do, if LP isn't playing a show between Sepetmber 14th and December 31st (which mark my words, they are not), it's up to the people running the contest to either extend the award period for the prize to accomodate a future show or replace it with another prize. There was another one of these contests not too long ago, and the winner wound up being flown to a show in Europe instead of the U.S. because LP's touring schedule didn't take them anywhere in the U.S. during the prize award period. These kind of contests are far from an indication of when/where the band will/will not be playing, in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the band isn't even aware that this contest is taking place.

    DBS tabs

    I don't have the whole solo figured out, but the part with the chromatic movements is hardly "weird," it's incredibly basic blues scale stuff: |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------7--------------------| |----------------7-----------------------------7--9-----7/9--\7~----------| |----------7--9-----7/9~--------------7--8--9-----------------------------| |-7--8--9-----------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| *Edit* Just finished tabs for My Suffering, they're up on my 4shared now. Inside of Me should be up later today or sometime tomorrow.
  24. Nobody, most likely. DBS uses sampled backing vocals on numerous songs during live performances. The BBC performance was recorded before the New York and Hollywood shows, and nobody else had mics for either of those, so I'm assuming they're sampled on that song like they are on quite a few others. And I'm really not sure why they choose to do that, because both Brandon and Elias are good singers.
  25. As far as I'm aware, Rick is still producing the album. There hasn't been anything said to suggest otherwise.
