As much as I would love to see Linkin Park share a stage with Rise Against, this is a point in time where my wallet is saying "Thank you for not having a Chicago date!" Also, it was probably wise, in my opinion for them to not have a show in Chicago with Rise Against as their opener. Being a home town band, RA are ridiculously huge here.
Wow, no Chicago show really? Guess I have to make a trip up north if I have the cash. Always wanted to see Rise Against play with Linkin Park.
Holy mother of god. This is what dreams are made of. Linkin Park AND Rise Against? Hamilton ON, I am THERE! Can I also just say this is a much more "carnivorous" line-up than the carnivores tour?
Oh man, seems like Mike do really mean it when he says he's a really good friend with the OM&M dudes ahah
Thank god they didn't do Camden this time. It really is a truly overhyped venue and the prices of parking are ludicrous. Wonder if 'The Hunting Party Tour' will play more songs from THP . We're still missing Keys To The Kingdom, All For Nothing, War, Mark The Graves and A Line In The Sand from the set. I'm not counting the interludes as those don't take much to work into the set.
They are finally coming to Albany,NY!!! you have no idea how excited I am!! its like 13 years in the waiting for this!
They should really play A Line In The Sand sometimes. I mean, tons of fans want it, and the band itself looks excited about it
Well Dave said he wants to play KTTK live and both Mike and Dave acknowledged that they know fans want to hear ALITS live. So, those songs are the most likely to be played live! I want to hear War or MTG live though. I think they'll sound better than KTTK or ALITS live but maybe I'm wrong. EDIT: Just think about The summoning building upto war live I feel like that would sound kickass live.
The thing is... there's absolutely no way Brad could perform War solo live. Like, instead it would just be Brad doing the random things he does at the end of GATS, but for a longer time ahah
Doubt they'll play any new THP tracks in the European leg though :/. They didn't with the dates last month, and I'm not sure if they had enough time to rehearse new songs for today's date and upcoming Euro dates.
No Illinois date........................ Fuck it, I'm going to Indianapolis. I got time to plan. It'll be a birthday gift to me
