They've lifted a few restrictions. I keep with WWE now and then and from what I've seen now they can appear and perform with long sleeves and pants, so I don't think she'll have a problem with fitting in. If anything they might have been booked to make a point of that. All these sports and entertainment events have been made with the hopes of improving the international image of Saudi Arabia.

I'm wondering if the 46-page booklet is more or less the same as the 40-page booklet from the physical photozine version. It'd be cool to confirm that once people get their physical copies. Can't complain about the price, $5 for the album plus bonus tracks is a steal. That being said, if they wanted to do digital only they could have thrown in a full show DSP or at least add Casualty live as well. I get that they played it not too long ago, but takes less than a week to master a single live track.

I see it right there, right below brazil. I don't think they would have any problem performing, after all WWE goes routinely there. Not surprised they won't say much about it, it doesn't exactly bring positive feedback. https://fromzero.linkinpark.com/tour

Did anyone else noticed they very quietly announced a date in Saudi Arabia for December 12th? It was lumped along with the announcements for 2025 in the website, but its not on the social media posts.

For sure! I will be there and fingers crossed I can do 1 more date during the tour

Omg no more news at all :o?

I'm attending a listening party tomorrow! So stocked about checking the new album!

Yessss, finally! Fingers crossed we get good mixing on the broadcast, but finally having a full pro shot is great nonetheless

No pop up store in my city, but at least we got a listening party this Saturday! I'm so hyped!

I hope they upload it to youtube separately later. the compression on the live stream is unreal for 2024 lol

I wonder if they oversold in LA, or maybe a shipping issue prevented it from stocking better elsewhere.

Can't wait for the Remix EP. Maybe we will get hits like: 1. Heavy Is the Crown (Is the Crown Heavy? Remix) 2. Heavy is the Crown (The Crown Is Heavy Remix) 3. Heavy is the Crown Pt. 2 Sillyness aside, I like how the song sounds. I agree I can see some "Rise Against"-like sound at some parts. I want to hear the full studio version before judging which LP album sounds I associate the most with the song. The only thing I'm 100% convinced is that Mikes's rap verse sounds a lot like the LT/THP rap verses.

I don't know... like, I saw Queen with Adam lambert a few years ago, and they did a couple of clips in between, and played "Love of My Life" with Freddie on the screen. On that end, it checks out. However, considering that the bands wants to move into creating new music rather than being a legacy act, probably that just adds to the backlash of adding Emily instead of someone more similar. Plus, I can only imagine that being a legal headache, since the family doesnt seem to be in the greatest terms with Mike, so it might be a bit of a legal issue to use his image in that way?

Well, now that we know that the different versions of the intros depend on the lyrics they put on top. I tried to give it a try and make a custom setlist to fit the current tour. I know there are plenty of changes, so it's a lot of wishful thinking. It strikes a balance between keeping a good amount of singles and being significantly different from the 2 shows we've got so far. Probably the most far-fetched idea is the changes to The Catalyst, but I feel it'd be so cool if they inserted the Japanese lyrics somewhere in between. It could work well if they do a show over there. Act 1. Inception Intro (Final Masquerade Lyrics) 1. Somewhere I belong (Short Intro) 2. Crawling 3. Wastelands (Transition into...) 4. Runnaway 5. New Divide (Moscow Intro) 6. The Emptiness Machine Act 2. Creation Intro 7. The Catalyst (Extended Bridge - Jornada del Muerto lyrics) 8. Burn It Down 9. Waiting for the End (2024 Intro) 10. Leave out All The Rest (2017 version) 11. Joe Solo 12. Mike Solo (About You/Over Again) - Transition into... 13. Papercut (Vocoder Outro) 14. Given Up 15. One Step Closer (2024 Intro; Ext: Outro) Act 3. Collapse Transition 16. Pushing Me Away (Piano version/Shortened) 17. Breaking The Habit 18. What I've done Act 4. Kintsugi Transition 19. I'll Be Gone (Synth Pulse intro) 20. Final Masquerade (Acoustic - Piano + Guitar + Vocals) 21. Talking to Myself 22. Numb (Numb Encore Intro) 23. In The End 24. Faint (Ext. Outro) Act 5. Resolution Intro (Final Masquerade Lyrics) 25. Lost (Full band version) 26. QWERTY 27. Bleed it Out (Ext. Bridge w/ 'Reading My Eyes' Verse; Ext. Outro)

Just following updates today, but still pretty excited about what surprises there will be tonight! WE ARE SO BACK

Now we got Papercut. I wonder if they'll release them all... though I can't see them too happy with the mishaps at the start of the catalyst 🤔

I think CASTLE OF GLASS is a bit overdone in this current setlist with all the transitions on top of the studio version. And we also had the COG experience in previous tours. I think it needs something to freshen up like the arrangements they've done on LOTR definitively gave a breath of fresh air to the song.

Definitively, specially the audio sounds great. I feel there are enough 4K sources to put a decent multicam together 😁

I think they are trying to position Emily as someone who can handle their heavier stuff, so it would just send the wrong message. But I think over time songs from OML may rotate alongside other mellow songs. I'm excited to see how will they tweak the set for NY. I asume the verse over BIO is gonna keep rotating, but otherwise I'm curious what else might change. Maybe mike will rotate songs on his solo. Also, the transitions having the letter A makes me think we'll eventually get 1 or 2 variants. I wonder why are all the transitions so castle of glass-centered, if they are gonna play the full song as well 🤔

That'd be sweet, especially with all the new mixes and stuff we got in the setlist. Hopefully they decide to mix at least one of these shows and make it a pre-order digital bonus, or smth like that.

Well here we go: So the source was recorded with a S24 Ultra. Pro video settings: UHD 30fps, speed 1/250, zoom: telephoto (3×; optical), focus: center. EDIT: Still killing time in the airport... So I added the setlist with timestamps 😁

Most of the people were standing during the show, except for a few in the upper bowl. So yeah, pretty much everyone was on their feet on that area unless it was an encore/intermission. Some people would sit for the ballads as well. Most were seated during grandson's set though.

I'm uploading rn from the airport! It's taking a while, but I did not book a room and my flight is tomorrow morning. So definitively it will come up sometime during the night 😅

I saw someone has posted most songs by separate. It's missing the show intro though. I can't promise it's good, but I did record start to finish from the upper bowl. 🙈 it's been long overdue for me to provide another source for the live guide.
