Tomorrow, Linkin Park returns to its home in California for the last four shows of the Carnivores Tour (five, including the date in Irvine a few days ago). The next stop of the tour is on the very familiar city of Los Angeles, where the band has played a grand total of 61 shows! Since 1997, LA has seen the band grow over the years starting from their very first shows at the Whiskey A Go Go and has seen them play in numerous venues throughout the big city. Linkin Park plays And One at the Roxy Theater, September 5th, 2000, prior to the release of Hybrid Theory [video=youtube;trL-DSa3PiQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trL-DSa3PiQ[/video] It is not hard to find great memories of Linkin Park playing in Los Angeles, the band has done memorable performances not only in full concerts but also in television appearances such as Jimmy Kimmel (2003, 2012 & 2013), the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, the 2012 American Music Awards, the 2013 Sunset Strip Music Festival and the MTV Collision Course with Jay-Z at The Roxy, which earned the band their second Grammy for their Numb/Encore collaboration at the 48th Grammy Awards Ceremony where they played the award-winning song live along with the great Paul McCartney in a mash-up with "Yesterday".

As described on their website, IAVA is a 21st century veterans’ organization dedicated to standing with the 2.8 million veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan from their first day home through the rest of their lives. For more information about the Organization and how can you help them, visit IAVA.org. [video=youtube;MzeTAgVO2Fc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzeTAgVO2Fc[/video] Tomorrow's show will take place at the Hollywood Bowl and, despite the fact Linkin Park has played over 60 times in LA, they have never played at the Hollywood Bowl before, so this should make the experience a bit more special. For fans unable to attend the show, remember you can watch a Live Stream of the event by going to VyRT.com. And for those of you who are going, don't forget to check the LPA Meet-Ups thread to see which fellow LPA members will attend to your show, and if you meet with some LPA friends, don't forget to tweet us some pics at @LPAssociation! Next stops of the tour will be in Chula Vista and Wheatland, before wrapping up the tour with a final date in Concord. Are you excited about going to the show or watching it online?

curious, is anyone gonna pay the $14.99? Is the stream good on vyrt? Curious if anyone else has had experience, I'm on the fence on this one, since I couldnt see them in Tinley Park
So the VyRT website completely went down a few minutes before the 30STM set was supposed to start, and has been dead ever since (half an hour and counting). Great service they're providing to all those people who paid anywhere from $15 to $50 to watch this show! Edit: VyRT just Tweeted the following link to watch the show for free, looks like they're giving up on fixing their website tonight. They restarted the stream from the beginning of 30STM too so we didn't miss anything: http://new.livestream.com/accounts/10046000/Carnivores
Didn't see the start of the show but the band improved playing GATS since the last time I saw them playing it! Chester has been gaining muscle mass too!! xD Phoenix bass-cam is awesome too I'm liking the show so far. EDIT: The band is rocking tonight! EDIT 2: Rebellion with Daron was FUCKIN AMAZING! LP, just hire him!!! EDIT 3: this thread is as dead as the crowd! xD EDIT 4: even Joe is moving his ass more than normal tonight… EDIT 5: Crawling almost-instrumental was great… xD
He sang, didn't play guitar. He was singing along Chester, nothing special. He seemed to be really enjoying himself though. Daron was actually mouthing the words to rebellion, he was jumping along to the song at one point too. The live stream was fun to watch.
Daron was the highlight of the show. Really epic seeing him play with the band. Austin Carlile was just a different thing. I didn't even know the man. And like we say in Portugal: "Tem uma boa voz para cagar nela!", something like "He has a good voice to shit on!" (well, at least from his performance on Faint)
Daron looks like he's been playing this song his whole life. Next to him, Shinoda and Delson look like they just learned it right before the show
When was the last time the band had three lead guitarists in one performance? I kinda forgot. [video=youtube;I8-asYbcam4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8-asYbcam4[/video]
