The Wizard Song.

Since a few days threads don't get marked as read properly anymore. Mostly happens when I go through all new posts in the Newswire for example and open them all in a new tab. Almost all of them get marked as read besides one or two threads (seems to be random which ones get marked).

I don't even see a reason why they keep on releasing them anymore. Live clips dubbed with studio versions and some time lapsed videos in between.

So you know it but no one else? How come you have the information? As long as there is no official statement that everyone can read it's just badmouthing LP's management in my opinion. Also no one wants to rip off a small company. We, as the fans, feel ripped off. The customer is the one who have to be satisfied and that's what a company should care for and not the other way around...

You claim it all the time but do you have an actual source for this?

Amen. People were satisfied when they started playing the set at the festival tour because it has an awesome song selection. Problem with LPL members (or maybe hardcore fans in general, don't know much about other bands) is, that they keep up with the stuff all the time so they get bored of it. The only solution would be to play other 20 songs every night (even better if they do all kinds of mashups/intros/outros). That will never happen and they don't even need to. A regular/casual/normal 'fan' is visiting like one or two show per touring cycle and I guess if you compare the setlists between touring cycles it's perfectly fine in terms of variations. They don't care what part Mike rapped over RNT, if he did RME over BIO or if they add APFMH for another show. But somehow everyone on LPL sounds like some entitled person who can demand another setlist every show (even if they live on the other site of the planet and just watch some clips on youtube) just because he is a more dedicated fan than the casuals. Imagine if they add RME out of nothing to the set. People would be crazy for it for maybe the next 5 shows? After that it will be the same old 'where are some surprises?' again. I don't know, I am annoyed by it a little bit. Yeah, I would love to get some more variation myself, but I can understand why it's not happening, and obviously bitching about won't help. People ask for APFMH all the fucking time and I am pretty sure the band knows it by now. They just don't want to play it. Some random rant by me :-D Now, back to normal. Enough words on LPL for the next 3 weeks for me:-D

I remember that he had so much fun playing one key on WFTE. Don't know if he still enjoys it that much but he IS pretty weird :-D

New episode! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5qHGjVnk08

Kinda offtopic but what kind of venues do that? I've never heard that before.

My wishes aren't even on the list. Respect 4 Grandma, Dolla, Bloc Party. I guess my wishes will never come true :-D

wasn't it an absolue trainwreck before? it took them ages to release DTA and even longe to release it in Europe.

I think there's much more than we get to hear. What's kinda confusing for me is how they treat the live album now. The band says that it was unauthorized all the time but why didn't they came out earlier and made a statement about it?

I thought we would get a bit more information on these vlogs. Something like a rundown on Mike's gear.

As someone who plays guitar since the age of 6 (23 now) I can tell you that playing for a long time doesn't mean shit. I think I play way worse than I did when I was 15. It's all about practice. If you don't keep up with your technique and practice the proper way, 50 years of just playing won't help you.

No. You register and have any ability to post on the forums. Nothing else involved. If you had to answer questions and had to be unlocked you did something wrong.

You know how the internet and public forums work? Because it doesn't seem like you do. My biggest with the whole vyrt thing is that there is no download involved. I pretty much pay as much as for a live DVD but I only get the chance to see it once (at a terrible time as an European). Make it downloadable or available as a VOD and I would definitely pay for it.

Wow. If LP only had their own platform where people pay to get content like chats or exclusive videos like they do for Chideo... They should really consider doing something like that. Maybe they can call it a fanclub?

I am not bitching. I just want to discuss the price of it.

Yeah but I can watch the DVD whenever I feel like I want to watch it. I can only watch the stream once.

So I am supposed to pay as much as a live DVD but I can only watch it once? Even if I am a 30STM fan I'd never pay for that. Huge rip off in my opinion. Doesn't really help the impression I have of 30STM.

Yeah but compare it with a live DVD. A live DVD costs around 10-12€ (so basically the same) but I have a proper mix of sound and cameras. Something I don't have on a live broadcast. And for the sponsors: I don't care as long as I have to pay less. If I pay the 15$ do I have a chance to download the show or is it just a webcast which I can watch once? If I can't download it it's a rip off.

15$ for a single concert (well technically 2)?! That's a bit expensive.

I really thing they should rotate Given Up and No More Sorrow. They are both high energetic songs and both fit into the position in the setlist in my opinion. I like Given Up but I think it's a little bit overplayed and as long as they replace it with NMS I'd be ok with it.

It is definitely NOT dubstep. The only thing that is dubstep on Recharged is the LITE remix.

Yoou have no idea what dubstep is. Am I right?
