Linkin Park / Machine Gun Kelly Tour • Page 2

Too bad there aren't any $20 tickets for this one on Ticketmaster.

 

These guys haven't been to Atlanta since 2012, what the hell

Oh well, new stuff doesn't do it for me personally. HUGE opportunity for One OK Rock though!

 

Just signed in to the presale. I'm 1,493 for Chicago.

 

Beyond weak. I refuse to believe they couldn't have gotten someone better and more respectable than MGK.

I had no desire to go to this tour but with a better opener, I could have been talked into it. Although, the band must hate Cleveland, considering they haven't been here in nearly a decade.

 

One OK Rock would've been a better choice for opening the entire thing instead of just three shows.

 

I got 910, not sure how I got a better spot when I did it after you.

I'm still not sure if I'm going to go to this, but I have friend who I'm pretty sure will be really excited for this so I feel like I'll end up there. Although I'm not sure all this presale stuff is necessary, cus I'm just going to get lawn tickets anyway.

 

I literally have no idea who ONE OK Rock are...Is that bad?

 

Don't forget....

2004 Korn, Less Than Jake, The Used, Funeral For A Friend, etc.
2004 (winter) P.O.D, Hoobastank, Story Of The Year

I realize those tours are kinda questionable in 2017 but, at the time, was a deal for the college-age me (GAWD, I'm old).

 

The only two times I saw LP were in 2001 on Family Values Tour when they opened for Staind and Stone Temple Pilots (phenomenal show) and 2004 when they headlined and had Snoop Dogg, Korn, The Used open up which was equally as great.

 

Exactly! I just did the last 10 years in my original post. As much as I'm not a fan of this tour, MGK is still a big name plus he meshes well with the singles LP released already. One OK Rock is a little bit in left field but LP has a history of bringing out bands they want even if they don't make sense.

 

Rumor has it that they were trying to get Muse to join Projekt Revolution in 2007. What a bill that would have been!

Also, I think they are going to struggle to fill these places. Does MGK usually fill mid-size venues? Their tour with Incubus had a hard time and I don't think the 30STM/AFI combo did significantly better in 2014.

 

They really wanted to recreate Bamboozle 07! The last tour I remember MGK being on was that co-headliner with Limp Bizkit. They did 3k cap venues if I remember correctly.

 

I don't hate MGK, I'm not a super fan, I like that reps Cleveland very hard. But this tour is just funny to me.

 

They are a Japanese rock band from that recently signed to Fueled by Ramen. Fall Out Boy opened for them in Japan.

 

That 2004 tour was so much fun. Was my 2nd concert ever.

 

Great band from Japan. Very popular in the States. They're headlining 2,000 - 3,000 cap venues over here. They did North American tours with Five Seconds of Summer and Crown The Empire last year.

 

Sucks the Chicago show is on a Monday. I expect a low turn out. I haven't missed a Chicago linkin park show since 2004. This might be the first one I miss because of work unless I'm switched to day shift by then

 

That's going to be a massive NYC show especially with Wu-Tang

 

I wonder if Wu-Tang Clan is playing the other show too.

EDIT: No.

 

I would absolutely be over the moon and travel for one of those again lol. I saw the first one, got me into Funeral for a Friend which I will be forever grateful for.

Linkin Park hasn't been to St Louis since touring Minutes to Midnight I think. I really should have traveled to see them during Living Things, the sets they were playing were pretty perfect and diverse. I wonder how this new album will fit into their sets.....

 

I definitely want in on that Hershey show. I'll be trying for tickets tomorrow, I guess... doesn't look like there's any presales

 

Will definitely be at the Hershey date, considering I live 10 minutes away.

 

Am I reading too much into this or is Blink closing NY and LP closing Hershey?
