Following an intro that included bits of “Castle of Glass” and “The Requiem,” the band ripped into “The Emptiness Machine,” which will be the lead single to From Zero. Armstrong appeared onstage midway through the song to deliver her second verse, as a reveal for who would be joining Mike Shinoda as the band’s other lead vocalist.
Linkin Park then performed a mix of their biggest hits (“In the End,” “Numb,” “Crawling”) and fan favorites (“Lying From You,” “Waiting for the End”). They also gave “Lost,” the re-discovered single from their Meteora 20th anniversary set last year, its live debut, with Armstrong leading a piano version of the top 40 hit.
The band will kick off its six-date arena tour next Wednesday (Sept. 11), in Los Angeles. Until then, check out the setlist to Thursday’s intimate performance, and watch the full performance below:
