Agreed

2020 sounds like a good year to make a comeback. Realistically, I see them getting a new frontman with metal roots. Not to replace Chester, but to definitely continue making music they love for fans. And I'm sure they will repeat that a million times during their comeback. I see them going with a younger frontman. They have a HUGE catalog with music they just can't ignore. Fans want a heavy as fuck A Place For My Head. A killer One Step Closer. A bat shit crazy Faint. You won't be able to do that if you don't have someone who's ready to rip the fucking ceiling off of your god damn house. I feel a younger metal based frontman is needed because as the other guys are getting older, you won't find many guys in their late 40s and up, years from now screaming their heads off. A younger frontman will give LP more longevity. And keep in mind guys, as much as we adore the fuck fuck out of Chester, he had an amazing range. His voice is iconic. You wont find anyone that can do both, sing and scream like he can. But you can definitely find better singers. Or better screamers out there. Bring on the fresh, young, sexy, metal screamer meat please.. And slap that shit in my face.

My Review: I creamed.

Geki gonna Geki Man, I should come out of retirement and re-claim my throne.

You are missed, Chester.

Geki just threw his dick right in this thread and I like it. I like it a lot.

Something I just wanted to make note of here. In my eyes, Papercut was by far the best song performed at the show (minus the voice bullshit during Chester's parts). It sounded like he slightly altered the beat a little bit to be a little more hip-hop, and Mike performed on it marvellously. Which makes me think, Mike is really good at mashing shit up and mixing shit up... LP can definitely go on without Chester and make all the old shit a little more hip-hop-centric and Mike can perform it no problem. As much as I love and miss Chester, Mikes papercut was very enjoyable.

I am going. Let us take over LA once again my brethren!

A Line In The Sand - Screamo Version

Geki gunna Geki

I'll bank on it being a Fort Minor set under the Mike Shinoda moniker.

You is lucky I got bronchitis right now mutha fucka.

Requesting DSPs gets you banned for quatro years.

I'm sure it's because its Linkin Frikkin Park, the biggest rock band in all the land.

I didn't realize Synyster was shredding at the end of Bleed It Out until this edit. God I love that man.

Let me be the first to say... I like this Geki.

Geki 2.0 Sydney crushed it. She was amazing. As a matter of fact, all of the females of the evening absolutely did justice to the songs they sang (Besides Alanis on COG; shit was trash)

Something else I just noticed from the live stream that I didn't notice during the live event when I attended... On Bleed It Out, M Shadows sang Chester's part of the song (on the live stream) I didn't realize that live. I don't know if I didn't pay attention or what but live it felt like everyone was singing. Also, at the end of BIO, Synyster Gates shred a little. I definitely didn't hear this live but its clear on the live stream. Anyone agree/disagree with all this? Was strange that I didn't notice all this live. For anyone knows how big I am on A7X.... the ending of the concert was a game changer for me. What are the odds that you're two favorite bands of all time will come as one? Insane.

The times of LP being aggressive in their music is over. And if it means having more of Mike and the rest of the guys around, I'm okay with it. More Mike is better than no Mike.

I agree. Ilsey was one of the better performances of the night, and she absolutely killed it on the guitar. Put Brad to shame (sorry not sorry)

Just some notes as I was there live... A Place For My Head was the best performance. That growl though >>>>>>>>>>>>> Crawling was phenomenal. There was no lipsyncing. Oli was amazing and I feel bad about what happened to him with the live stream. It must be heartbreaking to him because that performance was extremely important to us. I hate Burn It Down but M. Shadows banged that shit. Avenged Faint was the highlight of the show for me. When they brought out Syn, who is my guitar idol out, it was surreal. Syn shredded a solo in there, but you cant hear it at all on the stream. Find some recordings! Castle of Ass was trash. Saddest moment of the show? It was not OML or the new song. It was not Numb or In The End. It was New Divide. The band played the music live and on the screens around the venue it was Chester signing (in line with the live music) from a previous show at the hollywood bowl. Everyone would look at the screen and see chester singing and jumping around but you would look at the stage and he wasnt there.

Just to follow up on my previous post. Yes I was there. Yes, I was sexy

Saw this live and you can seriously hear a pin drop during this song performance. Definitely got everyone eyes watery.

Can't even tell you how amazing this was live.... Still soaking it all in...

I will be there. And I will be sexy.
