Show Notes:
- In a May 2020 stream with Pooch (FOH engineer) and Tater (monitor engineer), Mike told a story about this performance, saying that the band had rehearsed how the performance was going to start several times, with a specific person giving the intro to the band. When it came time for the performance, someone else introduced Linkin Park (unknown to the band) and the curtain suddenly started rising on stage. Mike had a mouth full of water and wasn't near his keyboard, Brad's guitar tech had his guitar and was on stage, and the band was unprepared to start the song so quickly. However, they recovered and when they watched the performance after getting off the stage, they noticed that the smoke hid all of the mess before the song.
Other Notes:
- A new stage resembling the Burn It Down music video was debuted at this show that featured flames behind the band.
- Linkin Park performed between Carrie Underwood (Blown Away) and Katy Perry (Wide Awake). The band was introduced by Swizz Beatz.
