I am a fan of both LP and 30 so this tour is just a dream come true. The one thing I love about 30 is that their albums are never the same, Some like this some hate it. To each is own.
Birth… I love this especially when its played at the opening of the set. Not sure if I am allowed to post youtube vids here but this one is just the shit (until the chick tries to follow Jared and doesnt stay with Shannon) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0qsD08nMeM
I am a huge Shannon fan so I especialy love it. We can see who in the family has the rhythm. HAH.
Conquistador. Its just so old school 30 goes back to their first album almost and love that Jared plays a lot of the guitar on this. Reminds me of Jared coming out playing Battle of One and breaking all the guitar strings. This has a lyric video with it. Its really cool lots of computer stuff except that tornado was the actual one that hit Oklahoma a few years back
Up in the Air: Not sure if you all know this but it was launched into space to the space station which is just cool in itself really. There are 2 videos for this one, The lyric video and then the regular video. Both are terrific.
City of Angels well I dont know if you have seen the video for this but anyone who has dreamed of going to CA or lives in CA should see it. I for one think its so good and when Jared sings “I am home” it just raises the hair on your arms. It really could be geared to your own home but I love the video. This also has a Lyric Video.
The Race: It took awhile for me to catch on to this particular song. But I love the Lyric video again. Perhaps the people who find these songs hard to grasp should watch the vids. I am becoming a huge fan of the Lyric videos.
End of All Days I just well OMG its go emotional. Jared wrote it on the road a long time ago when he was so sick and thought he was dying. We are hoping this will be their next single. But its such a great song especially live.
Pyres of Varanasi is a song that was written in India so its sounds so if it sounds middle eastern it is. The guys voice at the beginning was some guy they heard on the street “chanting”
Bright Lights is one that is part of their new sound it isnt played when they are not playing a full set but its such a great song to hear live. The 3 of them play all together right up front and if Jared can get Shannon to sing (yes Shannon sings wonderfully) its awesome. This has a Lyric video as well.
Convergence was written by Shannon, he is always dabbling with different instruments. People who have heard the album This is War may be familiar with L490. That two was written by Shannon (who said he dog ate the words).
Do or Die is like a sequel to Closer to the Edge totally for the fans with the camera towards the fans. If you watch the video the first guy interviewed actually played it at his dads funeral. As Closer to the Edge was filmed in the US, Do or Die was filmed primarily in Europe over the summer.
Northern Lights. just another great song. They just started playing this in concert. We are hoping for a video of this either Lyric or real.
Depuis le Debut I have no idea where this song came from but this song use to be played when the acrobats and Cir wheel came out (kinda a break and a chance for who knows where Jared would end up in the audience). But he felt it took away from the show so no more.
Hope all of this helps. I hope all of you come visit us on VyRT.
