Excellent pre-show post, as always. I might add that 2010 show was the first time they did Burning In the Skies over BIO bridge (Little detail, but please let me believe that my first LP show had something special lol). That being said I don't hold much expectatives of a setlist change, considering most of the shows that they have in schedule for these first months are festivals. However, It would be neat to have Mike do something a capella or on the BIO bridge. Its a little dissapointing to see that they're playing just wastelands from THP, as they didn't tour that album in South America besides Brazil. Heck, we didn't even got a LT tour (but fortunately I managed to go to Argentina). I though that at least Final Masquerade would make the cut. Anyway, I'm going, so I'll be tweeting if they change anything from the night before (@linkinboss). I usually tweet in spanish but I can do english just fine for this purpose. BTW, same time zone as Argentina show, if you want to check my tweets. Let's just hope there's a nice surprise in the setlist. EDIT: I was just watching Argentina's Show (I was able just to hear it yesterday), I'm gonna miss the giant screen with nice graphics on the stage.

To be fair, their lyrics are way too simplistic too. I don't hold any grudge to pop in general. But aside from emulating a generic pop song without the use of like 6 producers (like some other artist do), sounds like something that anyone else could have wrote. Kudos to them for proving that you don't need that many people to produce a song like that. But, The lyrics aren't nothing spectacular, the melody is short and repetitive (Aside from the intro is nothing to write homework about), and I certainly dislike the post-production on the voices. I wasn't expecting too much, so I'm not that dissapointed. I just hope that non-single songs have a bit more complexity on them (musically-lyrically), or at least some spice that makes them stand out as something that couldn't been done by literally anyone on today's mainstream music.

I would be down for some acoustic versions of already existing songs. Most of the demos released lately are just small pieces of instrumentals, which didn't get very far in composition. I'd rather have acoustic versions of their songs, or maybe studio versions of the extended songs that they play live (like faint with the extended outro, which has been a staple since 2007).

I just came back to say... woooooooohoooooooo . I'll be going, hopefully I'll leave a couple of live updates. it's been a long wait to see them here again, and its awesome that finally they'll headline their own show here. my wait was a tad bit shorter just because I went to argentina 2012, but there's no place like home

I'd say its unlikely, but I would like them to release acoustic songs like they did with Final Masquerade.... getting the infamous "reggae" version of Burn it down would be cool too

I agree. they should at least rotate between FM and UIG, over the ballad medley which is pretty old by now.

I mean in general, aside from full papercut, from the inside and a line in the sand, the changes during THP tour haven't been many. not to say they're playing just one setlist per tour leg, instead of the 3 rotating setlist. Anyway, I'm quite pleased with rebellion and from the inside coming back

seems they aren't changing that much the setlist but if they play GATS and APFMH i'm good with what they're playing... I mean, that plus ALTS, Rebellion, FTI and full Papercut that already have been played. I'm wondering how well are they playing with the guitar tech instead of brad EDIT: from what Mark posted on facebook seems the show the guitar tech is pretty off

I don't get why they haven't played an acoustic show yet. after six studio records they have plenty of material to choose to do a decent acouostic show. an one off show with broadcast or webcast would be great.

This answer is just missing: Anyway, I'm really looking forward for them to play war. it'll be nice to have another song from THP around

yet the concert wasn't released in 4k, as today. Probably isn't the first band to use these cameras, but is the first one to stream a show in that resolution in any way. I believe there are some movies on 4k too, but that's about it.

brace yourselves... the largest size file you've ever downloaded is coming?

even tough this has been a trainwreck, I got my refund from Daniel, I can say that much. And yeah, it kinda pissed me off that they didn't wanted to release the live album as I can't see them playing live. it would be cool to know what really happened.

the next tour they'll probably add intro/outro and theny you'll come to like the song xD?

I didn't. I meant chester/mike didn't say anything about it

yeah I also liked a lot the wid solo. one of the highlights of the show, for sure. so... we reached the end of the show and no words about brad's absense, that's lame.

and they messed the bridge too... omg... I hope they can solve these problems in time for tomorrow...

oh, my bad. xD I couldn't tell the difference with the awful audio quality of my stream.... I guess my internet conection is to blame too.

guitar stopped sounding at least 3 times during the intro/first verse. mike didn't do the usual instrmental intro to his solo, btw.

whao.... final masquerade intro was really messed up. I guess they're having a lot of technical issues too.

I hope they don't skip dirt off your shoulder/lying from you... we don't have a proshot of the version they're playing this tour

they didn't play castle of glass, did they?

I hope the tv bradcast is being taped by somenone because the webcast has a very low bitrate. I'm wondering what happened with brad, maybe he fell sick or someting?. on a side note, isn't the band rushing the show as much as posible?, I mean, they haven't done a single pause in the show so far.

I think it's possible they play there. I'm sure they fared well when lollapalooza asked which band would you like to see in the next festival. If they play in brazil probably they will in both chile and argentina too. the only exceptions between line up have been jane's adiction (which played on every first lollapalooza in each country - chile 2011, brazil 2012, argentina 2014), RHCP (which was replaced with Muse in Brazil, because RHCP played a 4 dates tour in brazil a few months before lollapalooza), and of course, the national bands. on a side note, tickets for both lollapalooza chile and lollapalooza argentina are in sale now and since from quite a while (Chile since august and Argentina since september).

well now more people can try to record the webcast, even if its just from a screen recording?
