(This is an expansion of the Out Of Ashes album page for the 15th anniversary release in 2024.)
Live in Las Vegas is a live concert by Dead Sunrise included on the 2024 reissue of their album Out Of Ashes as tracks 14 through 18. This is the first full show by the band to be released, but it is not its own standalone release.
Background
After performing a one-off acoustic song, 'Let Down,' for the first time in 2005 for a Hurricane Katrina benefit and then a three song performance for Club Tattoo's 13th Anniversary in 2008 three years later, Chester Bennington officially kicked off the Dead By Sunrise era on July 4, 2009 with an acoustic set at the Steve Wyrick Theater.
After this performance, the band headed to Europe and Asia where they played during the Linkin Park encore with three songs at select dates, ironically an idea conjured up by none other than Mike Shinoda. Following the summer of 2009, Dead By Sunrise kicked off their promotional shows for the album in October across the world before taking part in a brief world tour.
The Las Vegas show was announced by Chester on Twitter on May 24, 2009, Chester writing: "Hey everyone. I'm ready to get out and play some shows. I'll be playing in Las Vegas July 4 at Club Tattoo at Miricle Mile shops."[1] An official announcement came on June 3, 2009 on Linkin Park and Chester Bennington's pages: "Club Tattoo is opening a brand new store in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood's Miracle Mile Shops. The show is set for July 4th and will feature an acoustic set performed by Chester and his friends from Julien-K. The Linkin Park Street Team is wanting to get the word out about the opening of the parlor, so they've set a deal up for some fans."[2][3]
Composition
The five songs from Las Vegas encompass the full acoustic set the band performed that night, with the full-band Dead By Sunrise lineup featuring Chester Bennington (vocals), Ryan Shuck (rhythm guitar/vocals), Amir Derakh (lead guitar), Anthony "Fu" Valcic (synthesizers, keyboards), Brandon Belsky (bass), and Elias Andra (drums).
About five weeks before the show, Chester replied to a few tweets saying that there would be five songs performed at the show, four of which would be on the album, and the first single was likely going to be 'Crawl Back In.'[4]
Dead By Sunrise kicked the show off with the lead single on the album 'Crawl Back In' which was performed for the very first time. 'Walking In Circles' followed, with its second performance, coming after the debut at the Club Tattoo 2008 show, with "In The Darkness" being debuted right after it. Chester introduced 'In The Darkness' by saying, "It's about making love and feeling passion with another person. It was a new endeavor for me for this album to write love songs, because most songs I am used to writing about are usually pretty dark and angst-ridden. It's been an adventure."
The show rounded out with the two fan-favorite (and most popular, at the time) songs 'Let Down,' which was performed in 2005, and 'Morning After,' a song fans knew from Linkin Park's 2001 touring for Hybrid Theory when Chester performed it a few times acoustically. The song was also performed with Chester's cover band Bucket of Weenies in 2005 as well as at the same Dead By Sunrise Club Tattoo show 'Walking In Circles' was played at in 2008.
Security at the show was pretty intense, with fans not being allowed to film the show at all.
