Anyone else download this app? It's free and I just listened to/watched the Linkin Park concert. Pretty good stuff. I am really looking forward to the Foo Fighters concert on Monday.

only interested in the to be announced acts

Horrible Choices Horrible

why would you watch or listen to a Linkin Park concert on purpose

7/6/2011 9:11:24 PM

Ripping on people's music preferences is cool bro.

7/7/2011 5:35:09 AM

There's no reason an adult should be listening to linkin park

I went to a Linkin Park Concert back in college. It was actually decent. Cypress Hill opened up. They were awful.

It was all high school girls that came up to my armpits. I walked right up to the front of the floor and saw everything perfect. Including two 13 year old girls making out a fingering each other over their shorts.

I guess the point of this thread was to discuss the lineup, especially since I am not familiar with most of the bands. But if a bunch of hipsters want to trash my musical taste, that's fine too.

The only interesting/relevant things on that lineup are Adele, Raphael Saadiq, and Mogwai, and even those are stretches.

Linkin Park puts on a fun show. I wasn't expecting to like it when I went to their Projekt Revolution tour a few years ago, but it was actually pretty entertaining.

7/7/2011 9:49:51 PM

^^Foo Fighters aren't relevant?

for fathers of 2 or more

After the Colour & the Shape, they've put out nothing but boring records (although I like the first track on the third one).

The Colour & the Shape was fifteen years ago.

"Wasting Light debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 235,000 copies in the United States.[13] It is the band's first number-one album in the US and their second-highest sales week, following In Your Honor's first-week sales of 311,000 copies in 2005.[13] Wasting Light has sold 341,000 copies in the US as of May 6, 2011"

While I agree that their newest album isn't their best, and I appreciate your opinion on the band, I would hardly say that they are irrelevant. They might be the biggest rock band in the world right now.

7/8/2011 1:50:29 PM

hahahahahahahaha

not even close to being the biggest band in the world

7/8/2011 2:06:21 PM

the SUBTRKT show on July 14 could be cool

Not even close? Who do you think is bigger? Arcade Fire?

7/8/2011 2:18:47 PM

j-lo, obvi

7/8/2011 2:23:50 PM

^^ Well, considering you quoted sales figures, and considering The Suburbs has sold more copies than Wasting Light...sure.

7/8/2011 2:28:15 PM

most recent record sales indicates overall world popularity

7/8/2011 3:52:05 PM

Some band that is even more obscure than an "indie" band is the most popular in the world. Right

7/8/2011 9:06:34 PM

obvious troll is obvious

if you like them, then they're relevant. to you.

isn't that enough?

This thread is awesome.



Only not, and sort of the exact opposite.
