Show Notes:
- The last song on the pre-show playlist before the band walked out was the 'Monster Zero March' from the original Godzilla OST.
- The band switched the setlist up for night two by rotating 'Crawling' and 'Points Of Authority.' This was the first show since the band's 2024 return that did not feature 'Crawling,' and the first show in 2025 to feature 'Points Of Authority.'
- Emily played on Joe's turntables during the extended intro of 'Two Faced.'
- This performance of 'Keys To The Kingdom' marks the first time any music from The Hunting Party had ever been performed in Japan, after having skipped the majority of Asia in favor of a China Tour in 2015. No music from One More Light (barring a private Mike & Chester acoustic performance of 'Heavy') has ever been performed in the country still, with the band's three-night residency in Chiba in November 2017 being cancelled and no songs being performed between the two 2025 shows.
- Mike played the intro to 'In The End' on Joe's pads for the first time. Before he started the song, he called out his wife Anna and Linsey, Phoenix's wife, on that side of the stage. He had Joe start it, saying "I've never played it before, you've got to start it. It's all just squares." As Mike played the intro, Joe walked over to Colin with a drumstick and hit a cymbal as the song kicked in.
- Phoenix played the second verse of 'Bleed It Out' on the front of Colin's drum riser.
- Mike sang the bridge of 'Cut The Bridge' during the extended bridge of 'Bleed It Out.'
Other Notes:
- This show was announced on November 14, 2024 with the From Zero World Tour, exactly 27 years to the day of the band's first Xero show in 1997.
- This show sold out quickly.
- There was no opening band for this show and Linkin Park performed at 6:00 p.m. local time.
- Linkin Park hosted a pop-up gallery in Tokyo leading up to this show, beginning on February 8. It was titled "Peace and After" and featured a new flower logo by the band. In addition, the band's VIP touring exhibit of current and older items, including a microphone from Chester, signed items by Chester and Rob, etc, were included at the pop-up store for fans to visit. The pop-up gallery also celebrated Phoenix and Mike's February birthdays.
- The LPU Early Entry queue was delayed for 24 hours for the Tokyo shows due to a technical glitch.
