First off, hello again! It's been a minute. I feel like I haven't really had much to contribute in the way of useful insight to the LP internet community because I literally joined LPU the summer before 6th grade. Just imagine the kinds of ignorant things an 11 year old would say on the internet...makes me cringe just thinking about it.
Anyways, most post-show threads consist of rants about how stagnant people perceive LP's setlists to be. I think most neglect to realize is that with every setlist (THP especially) is that they're making a conscious effort to represent everything they've professionally and publicly released (before anyone says that they aren't playing And One or QWERTY). It could be a lot worse, fellas. We could be getting setlists of only singles. We could be getting OSC and ITE as the only HT songs. Give it time, everybody. Even if it means KTTK and MTG get played on the touring cycle for Album #7. The songs and band aren't going anywhere.
*Side-note, a new ballad medley could be cool. TLTGYA/Roads Untraveled/ETR/My December, anyone? -
Kara's Flowers --> Maroon 5
That's a pretty bad first name, imo. Sounds like a metaphor for a vagina.

It makes $$$$$$$$$ sence.
1st April? Now that's funny a.k.a trololo
It's also a Monday, when bands typically announce things. It's just also a bad coincidence.

Maroon 5 is currently on tour in USA (since February 13th until April 6th, 31 dates).
The headliner is announced on 4/1. It's LP, because Maroon 5 isn't going to announce a new US tour while they still have one going on.
-
Remember when people were totally trashing on the 2013 setlists? Glad I remain optimistic and faithful to my favorite band without throwing bitch fits.

Have you read anything I have been posting? My point was basically that LP evolved with MTM/ATS and then took a huge step BACKWARDS with LT. I love MTM and ATS, I have been defending them left and right! I mean I do like their older albums of coarse, they're in my heart, I grew up with them, but I just think LP should have kept going with their new sound after ATS instead of going a bit backwards.
Every album since the other has been an evolution in one way or another (musical, stylistic, artistic, lyrical). Case closed. Mall soundtrack should be cool too.

LP needs to evolve.
They put out some albums. "Minutes to Midnight", "A Thousand Suns", and "Living Things". You might've heard of them?

So, if they're at such a high point in a live setting, and seemingly WANT to play shows and make them exciting, then why are they playing such a small amount of shows? This really was a sad excuse for a touring cycle, and the sole reason for that is just the lack of touring all together. That's what I'm disappointed in here.
Other than the band stating on numerous occasions that they prefer to tour less, there's also the factor that they also have families. Although we are fairly well-informed whenever Chester has another kid on the way, the other guys are very quiet about their family lives. There's always that.
-
boom!
If anything, having that sort of unique crowd interaction would blow away any set-list disappointments.
to me, that is worth way more than hearing a rare song.
That's why I liked the Best Buy Theater 2010 show so much! I hopped on a train from school to NYC, met up with my dad, ate Bubba Gump shrimp, hung out with LPxDC (who is legitimately my show-bro, he and I have seen big bands like LP, Slipknot, and Korn to small local bands and he even saw my band play to 12 people in a club), totally felt the adrenaline from the band, shook Mike and Chester's hands (don't take that for granted, ever), and stayed in a nice hotel. The setlist literally did not matter at that point, I got to see LP up-close-and-personal.
The past 3 LP shows I've seen have been nothing short of personal interaction with the fans. I was very fortunate to have meet & greets, the Summit, high-fiving Chester during Numb at the Bristow show, Rob pointing at me, etc. I'm astounded that everyone else seems to feel they've gotten the short end of the stick with LP shows. I've had amazing shows at every one since I was 13.

nothing new

Peace bro.

Oh then that will be no problem haha. LP owned the Download 2007 show...they really rocked it and the crowd was loving it. The DVD I have of that show is one of the best ones out there that were filmed standing up at shows (not from seats, which is where most fan DVDs are from), right next to Reading 2003.
Not to mention, LP went on right after Marilyn Manson. Hell, my band could go on right after MM and get a better reception!
-
LP is playing after Slayer? That's gonna be fun. Dublin 2003 revisited, anyone?
Although it would be much worse if they were playing BEFORE Slayer...
Slayer played before LP at Download 2007 too.

Well they aren't going to exclude COG because it's the new single. The only problem I see with your set is the lack of A Place For My Head. Drop Numb, add COG. Drop LGM, add APFMH before OSC. New Divide, In The End and Numb really need some time off like Crawling is getting, etc...
Oh, don't get me wrong, the hardcore fan in me would love the set you listed, I was just going off what would most likely be a safe set that the band could pull. Of course, they haven't played a single show yet this year, so anything could happen!
-
This makes perfect sense. I think the only thing that really surprises and sticks out at me is the fact that LP is going to be playing when it's still light out.
As far as the clash between Metallica and Blink/Offspring, it's quite apparent that this festival is mainly comprised of metal and pop-punk bands. Not a lot of people like both. Personally, I love Metallica, Blink, and The Offspring. If I went to this, I'd go all the days and see LP every day, while sorting through which of the other bands I choose to see.
I do hope LP strategically writes an energetic set for this, something like:
LITE
Faint
ND
GU
Victimized/QWERTY
Papercut/LFY
WY
SIB
LGM
POA
WFTE (UIB intro)
BTH
The Catalyst
Numb
WID
BID
ITE
BIO
OSC
We can hope all day that APFMH, Figure 09, etc gets added, but this is what it'll most likely be. COG and the Medley should be excluded in order to keep energy up. IMR, WTCFM, Blackout, and maybe Powerless would most likely be cycled in.

I wasn't there, so I'm not going to jump on how "LP didn't play this, blah, blah, blah" but they missed a huge opportunity to whip out "My December"!
-
By the way, Jim told my group at the Summit that the Monterrey stage set up will be different and exclusive to this show!
-
Stone Sour. Holy shit.
Here's to hoping for some sort of duet between Chester and Corey!
-
I got meet & greet! Fingers crossed for a backstage tour!
-
The new synth/sample layer in the verses to With You are so sick!
One complaint (something I've noticed for a while as a drummer) is that I miss the "pop" that Rob would get on his snare! Do some rimshots or tune tighter! Lol
-
"Get the fuck up!"
Channeling his inner Fred Durst?

I'm having a tough time embedding quotes, mainly because of the fact that I'm using a tablet. I have become the grandpa of LPL...
But I feel I'm in the minority for enjoying COG Experience, Joe Solo, and Mike's Solo. But maybe that's because my only experience for THP in the live spectrum was Carnivores. Even with the 2 Honda Civic shows I caught within a week of each other were vastly different. I'm surprised another LT song hasn't been hybridized with its Recharged counterpart. I look at COG Experience as the P5hing Me Aw*y of 2014/2015.
I actually asked Mike if he considered expanding on the solo at the M&G last summer beyond RTN and HHH (I even mentioned Step Up and Nobody's Listening) and he said it's really dependent on what he feels and what fits (just like POA 2007-2009).
So while I feel those spots in the sets are special and serve their purpose in making THP's tour unique, a little variance of those components never hurts. Rob did a different drum solo with BIO for PR08 after introducing it at PR07, who knows how/if LP will switch those aforementioned things up?
