You be hatin' cos you're not on the fokken . NEXT LEVEL BEATS YO.

That is so crazy. I recently just started to really appreciate Die Antwoord. XD

"IT'S A GEWD SHOW BUT IT WOOLD BE SO MUCH BETTER IF U WOOLD PROVIDE MEGAUPLOAD LINX AND RAPIDSHARE OK?? FUK SOME DEMONOID SHIIT!! I MEAN WTF!! AND WTF WITH HD ON OLD SHOWS LOL WTF GET OUTTA OF HERE" ^ Exact words.

HOLY SHIT AMAZING.

That's the username of a guy they worked with who won a remix contest for The Catalyst.

Yeah, back in the day they did. Springfield, MO show has a video of it.

I saw Jonathan Davis.

Good times...

I can see it now.

Why didn't they do this all along? Randomly picking a setlist instead of going in order is an awesome idea, knowing that they have fan sites who track down their every move. Now we still get the surprise factor. I like that.

LOL. I was thinking the same thing. As far as the the "article", it is just an interesting fact. I don't know if it's really newsworthy but I thought it was kinda funny. lol

Composer Jonathan Elias recently announced a benefit album titled Prayer Cycle 2 to be released on May 10th in support of nuclear disarmament. The original title for the benefit album was A Thousand Suns, but had to be changed when Linkin Park released their recent album with the same title. "We had the artwork figured out and then they came along, so damn Linkin Park," Elias says with a laugh. "What's also funny is I almost worked with Chester [bennington] on this. Jonathan Davis and he are friends and Jonathan told him about the project. He really liked it but we just couldn't get it together." Knowing that some members from Linkin Park are still at least interested in collaborating for different causes, it's possible we may hear some more new music arise in the near future!

Wow guys...you really can't figure out what the next single will be? "EXPLOSIVE" ???? Empty Spaces will be the next single. You can stop arguing now.

Yeah, I can see that being a problem. With all due respect, I don't think it will be any more complex. Place For My Head would win that over.

"unreleased" lol EDIT: On more serious terms, I'm actually surprised it's not the exact same pack that was on GH, especially the fact that it's not filled with ATS tracks.

I see your point. I was thinking these shirts would mostly be used for a live setting when going to a show and showing your support, but for someone wanting to wear it in school or something it could seem quite strange I suppose. Sorry for my dick comment. lol

Did you bother to read the post above yours? Just wondering.

I'm really surprised that Wretches and Kings wasn't out sooner (if it will be). It's a total club song.

They're not going to fake playing an instrument if they aren't doing anything. They will just walk off stage. He's playing the part. You are hearing Rob drumming along when Chester isn't doing something.

Then you should have been complaining when Linkin Park first formed as a band. They have been using samples since day one. You can also argue that they are pathetic for even playing a keyboard, as those are all samples of sounds and not legitimate chords.

Apparently you missed the part where they were all doing something...

Yeah, there's really just no way of telling. It all depends on the fan base in the area they are playing at. Plus, the weather makes a pretty big impact.

First of all, in response to the OP, I always get pit tickets for every concert I go to. It's amazing to feel the pounding bass right through your chest and having more interaction with the band. Here's what to expect in the pit: - Dodging feet from the crowd surfers. (Some venues don't allow crowd surfing but it ends up happening at some point in the night anyways and getting kicked in the face really pisses you off.) - Getting beer spilled on you. (Which could easily happen in seats as well) - Dodging psychotic girls (refer to Oklahoma story below) (Also: I'm not sexist. Just look at some old live Beatles videos. With the fame status that Linkin Park has, it's just to be expected.) - Dodging drunk men. - Possibly slipping on beer. - Pushing/Shoving. - Screaming in your ears. (Ex: -Wretches and Kings begins to play- "HOLY SHIT!!!! OMG!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! OMFG!!!!") Well, I can't think of anything else for that, but it's really an amazing experience if you can avoid those problems. Just tackle it, I've never had any problems with it. Just make sure you're cautious of what I mentioned. This is FAR from the truth! You could easily die from being trampled on by all the teenie boppers wanting to take a snapshot of Chester blowing them a kiss. I had a girl offer me $20 to take my spot in Oklahoma. I basically said, "NO WENCH! I WAITED ALL DAY FOR THIS SPOT," and I about fell on the floor later when she turbo-charged the back of my ass when Chester jumped down from the stage during Crawling. Scary times... There's no set time or definitive answers for questions like this, so the bottom line is to get there as early as possible. I have been to two Linkin Park shows (2004 and 2008) and I had arrived at about 1-2 PM for both and got about 2 rows from the front. The experience was amazing seeing that the band interacts with the fans wonderfully. It feels like you are much closer than you are (even though you're still pretty damn close). Getting the barricade is more or less dependent on who shows up first. Twenty people could show up at 5 AM that day and get the barricade, while you're sleeping in your comfortable futon or enjoying some HBO specials (you know what I'm talking about. ) Don't freak out, just show up anywhere from noon to 2 PM and make sure you pack a lunch or something. If you stress about being the "first" to be on the barricade, you will just be let down if your chances are gone once you show up. It's really just a flip of a coin until you arrive. There could be a ton of people that had the same idea that you did, or there could be a ton of people who don't care about LP as much as you do and are more focused on having a drink and enjoying live music. You will MOST LIKELY get an amazing spot if you show up that early.

Precisely the point of this contest, my friend.
