May 24, 2014 - Tucson, AZ: KFMA Day 2014

Brads solo on What I've Done is so much better than the solos i've heard from him before.

I thought the sets for the Honda Civic Tour were a little lackluster (oh look! pyrotechnics!). The A Thousand Suns tour was so much better. While this was only one show I like the direction they are heading for The Carnivores Tour. My favorite so far is the Hip Hop Medley.

 

It's a pretty bad and basic solo. Sounds like a kid who learned how to sweep pick on his last guitar lesson and wants to show it. And on top of that he messed it up live all the time. So... yeah.

If he sticks to these kind of more natural solos like the one in the video then I'm all for it, since it sounded great.

 

There was some problems with the sound

Chester's definately putting more effort into his screams especially the last scream in Lost In The Echo was awesome

This solo has nothing to do with sweep picking its just Hammer ons and pull offs

 

Damnit I love Chester.

 

Way to go Brad!

Maybe Mike from Incubus rubbed off on him.

 

OR Mike from Linkin Park told him to "bring out his 16-year old self"

I'm with you.

 

I concur.

Even if you're not with me.

 

It's confirmed: the show will be broadcasted live at SIC Radical!

I see what you did there

 

Since when did Brad start playing like that? I need to see a HD version of that performance!

 

Wow, there are some tone deaf assholes in that crowd.

Good solo though, at least coming from Brad. It actually, you know, sounds like a solo, rather than the "solo" on the original What I've Done, or UIG.

 

More of that from Brad please! It adds so much to the song and gives it a little more of that 'rock' vibe.

Agreed, the both the normal WID and UIG solos are pretty 'blink and you miss it' and don't stand out to me at all... I didn't really even notice it on my first listen of UIG. I'm hoping there's something more distinctive on the rest of THP - I'm a big fan of the solo at the end of GATS though, although it reminds me of the extended Faint outro a little.

 

Brad brought his 16 year old self along with his 16 year old guitar equipment.

 

I feel like the "Lift me up, Let me go" would fit better in WID. Just what I think.

 

Chester mad about the nark accusations https://twitter.com/ChesterBe/statuses/471436049512529920

 

Those guys are so funny!

 

Oh snap shots fired.
