It will be linked to closer to the show. We'll edit it in the post and post in here in the thread. Just making some final adjustments before the show tonight.
Unfortunately I have somewhere to be around 7. Do you think LP will leave the livestream on Youtube for a bit?
The event link has now been added to the thread: http://www.lpassociation.com/forum/pages/events/ The chat is tied to the shoutbox so you will need to be logged in / registered to chat. I'll be in there tonight with the other LPA staff (there's also a lot of LPA staff actually at the show). Will be cool to chat and watch together.
Is everyone from LPA going to the lplive meetup around 4 in front of the venue? I wanna meet you guys haha
I’ll be at the show tonight—flew in from Seattle yesterday, and I’ve been touring around to city so far with a friend.
Had my power nap, played some Assassin's Creed Origins, going to watch some random horror film and then watch the tribute show, then back to sleep for a few hours and up again lunch time. Still, I'm looking forward to the show, it will be nice to see the band on stage again even if they are missing that extra spotlight for Chester. Still, I know he will be watching from the best seat in the house for sure.
Looking For An Answer - A hole that wasn't there before And I keep reaching for the light And I can't find it anymore There's an emptiness tonight A heavy hand that pulls me down They say it's gonna be alright They can't begin to tell me how And I ask myself out loud Have I been lost all along Was there something I could say or something I should not have done Was I lost all along Was I looking for an answer When there really never was Was I looking for an answer When there really never was Is there sunshine where you are The same that was when you were here Cause I'm just sitting in the dark Disbelief that this is real Disbelief that this is real Was I lost all along Was there something i could say or something I should not have done Was I lost all along Was I looking for an answer When there really never was Was I looking for an answer When there really never was Was I lost all along Was I looking for an answer When there really never was Was I looking for an answer When there really never was
Interesting, the take-away from Mike's last lines to the crowd is that they honestly don't know what's next for Linkin Park, whether they continue together or not.
Mike Shinoda is the most human person in this world! What a man! Fantastic how strong and self-aware he is, confident to take the lead on the worst possible situation. There's no better human than Mike Shinoda, i trully believe that. He went through all the concert with a beautiful smile on the face.
