    Tomorrow, September 9th, the LPU summit in Tokyo, Japan will begin. The first day of the summit will most notably include the "A Thousand Horizons" event which will take place at the "Nicofarre" venue in Japan. It is being called a charity art show that will benefit the ongoing crisis in Japan following the earthquake/tsunami back on March 11th, 2011. The official event site, www.1000horizons.com, gives fans an idea of how the whole thing will transpire.

    Firstly, LPU members that will be in attendance will get to view the "A Thousand Horizons Museum" which will open at 4:00PM and will close at 6:00PM (all times Tokyo time). Although, details on what the museum will show are fairly unknown at this point. Be sure to keep checking the LPA as more information on this becomes available.

    After the museum closes the next part of the event will start. At 8:00PM Tokyo time there will be the "A Thousand Horizons Show" that will be webcasted HERE. It will supposedly be some kind of multimedia experience that has been described as experiencing "A Thousand Suns" in augmented reality. Earlier, the "A Thousand Horizons" website gave fans a chance to submit a video of themselves singing "Iridescent" and/or submit artwork that somehow portrays the situation in Japan. Apparently, these submissions will be included in the show. It is also known that an unreleased "A Thousand Suns" remix by Joe Hahn will be incorporated in all of this as well. Also, the website that is webcasting the show points out that after the digital experience there will be a Q&A session with Linkin Park that everyone watching will be able to see.

    As mentioned earlier, "A Thousand Horizons" will take place at the Nicofarre in Japan. The event website has posted a summary of what the venue is like:
    Additionally, other than the webcasted show, there is a way for fans who aren't attending "A Thousand Horizons" to be apart of the charity event. Starting tomorrow, exclusive "A Thousand Horizons" merchandise will be available to purchase online. Items that fans can buy include tshirts, an iPhone 4 case, a Nenroid Linkin Park set, and an exclusive threeA toy. Pictures of these items can be viewed HERE. Portions of the proceeds made with the merchandise and the rest of the show will go to Music for Relief.

    Make sure to let us know if you're going or if you plan on watching the webcast! It should be noted that the show may be on early in the morning in some places (4:00AM in California). Also, be sure to stay tuned to the LPA as more details about the event become available!

    If possible, it'd be great if someone could record the event so that we could re-upload it to the LPA YouTube in separate parts (for those who will miss the event). That'd be awesome.

    I would so appreciate that as well, since I have to be up at the buttcrack of dawn, and I'll be at work once the event begins. :)

    I hope Linkin Park will some how rerelease this show video. It'd make sense if they really spent that much time making it. I really hope so, so that I can see a HD version. I won't be able to make it tomorrow morning for this so I'm a bit sad :(

    I can't help but wonder if they will push to make a live CD/DVD for the show. With some/all proceeds from the album's sales going to Japan.

    It's just one of those things we'll have to see to understand apparently.

    Hey, as anyone noticed that there is a reservation button on the site that says

    "You can watch the broadcast as it was on live, 30minutes after the show." it goes on to s say you have a certain amount of reservations left.

    I'm sure this means it records it for you so you can watch it later? Like a DVR

    But you only have 30 mins to watch it... :lol:
