Yeah, he playing Faint really bothered me on the first show and now with New Divide and KTK in the second, but to be fair, he is excellent, just has a different style of playing. On the positive side I liked the build up in WID and the new fill at the end of OSC he added. I'm also obsessing over TEM recorded drums, it sounds so good.
I think his kit sounds great, especially his snare sound. I was never a big fan of Rob's snare sound, especially from ATS until OML, both in studio and live. I love how Colin's kit sounds on the TEM studio track.
Anybody happen to know of any GA tix floating around for NYC? Scheduled opened up and I'd like to not support resellers.
I still haven't watched the show and I don't know when I will lmao. The 2nd show is today. I've only seen clips but from what I've seen it's amazing. The fact that Emily sang Keys to the Kingdom just left me in awe, it takes courage to take a track like that head on! Her clean voice also sounds much better than the livestream. She's got a lot more comfortable and I think it will get better. As for the setlist, I see folks mentioning that perhaps one or two songs they could've done without, but remember that there WILL be more new songs added to the set once From Zero is out, so the debate I think will be in guessing which ones will be axed. The guys love how the current setlist goes otherwise they wouldn't have chosen these songs, but I'm sure they also know which ones will be replaced by From Zero tracks.
