Linkin Park had to submit a list of songs to the Chinese government to be "pre-approved" for the setlist. The Chinese did not approve "Given Up" and "Hands Held High" and required them to be removed from the show for political reasons. You can view a scan of the original document below, a rough English translation can be found here.
This show was a make-up show for the canceled show in Shanghai in 2008.
There was no opening band at this show as far as we know.
The venue put plastic chairs down, covering the entire floor, for this show.
Mike posted on his blog after the show, "A good pic from the show in Shanghai last night. This was the same venue that hosted this year’s Olympic events. It was an amazing show, and a fantastic experience in China all-around. A big thanks to our Chinese fans and friends who helped make these shows a reality!"
A setlist photo for this show was added in October 2025. When Linkin Park was on the west coast of the North American Tour in fall 2025, they added a setlist that they found from a road case in storage to the traveling VIP memorabilia exhibit. That setlist turned out to be from this show, and a very unique setlist in the grand scheme of the band. Thank you to Lorenzo for his help getting this added to the website!
