The band have never performed in Rybnik before, and have only played shows in Poland a handful of times throughout their career. They first came to the country in 2007 in support of Minutes to Midnight and then returned in 2012 with a show for Living Things. They also played in the country in 2014. Tonight's show has been hyped up as "one of the most important music events in Poland this year ". Enjoy the full set from the 2012 Orange Warsaw Festival show. [video=youtube;TSGu2fhyZ9c]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSGu2fhyZ9c[/video] This is fucking great So since we missed a couple of the shows here due to various circumstances, let's just quickly run down what the band has done so far on the tour. They started off strong in Belgium where they played the Pukkelpop festival for the first time in their careers. The interesting part of this show is that Pukkelpop was ready to livestream the show, just waiting for the managements approval.. which never came. Given the countless other streams just these last few months, that is pretty weird. Setlist wise it was the same as the Chinese tour except for putting Rebellion back in. It was removed due to China .. being China. The band then headed to Austria two days later where they had their premiere performance at the FM4 Frequency Festival. Yes, despite having played in the country nine times since 2001 the band had never played at that festival before. It was the same setlist as the Pukkelpop show. Their latest performance was the first Germany performance for the band for the year. I know, it's weird right? It's August and the band has only played in Germany ONCE this year? Don't worry though, they have two more performances in the country on this tour, plus a Fort Minor solo show. Anyway, jealousy aside, the played at Rock 'n' Heim, another festival premiere performance. Again, the setlist was the same. Watch some videos below from all three shows, all in chronological order.

The band was in rehearsal earlier this month, something that they did do before the China tour, and as we know the China tour didn't bring any surprises. So has the band rehearsed any new songs? With this being the last tour of The Hunting Party, will there be more songs premiered? After this show, the band will head over to Belarus to play a show in Minsk on the 27th and then travel to Russia on the 29th for a show in Moscow. Are you going to this show? Have you missed our tour posts? What will the band play? Come and discuss in our forums.
damn it, just ONE Germany concert yet and its August, whats wrong with the world. Hope i got a ticket for Rock Im Sektor, would be cool thought.
Based on the Snapchat posts, the crowd in Rybnik was actually pretty good. Great to hear the fans singing really loudly
