Show Notes:
- 'Petrified' was over 'Points Of Authority'. 'There They Go' was over the outro.
- Linkin Park played a shortened setlist due to Stone Temple Pilots running late. The band did not take the stage until about 9:50pm local time, which is roughly 20 minutes past when they usually go on. Dropped songs from this set were 'Don't Stay', 'Valentine's Day', and 'In Pieces'. 'Pushing Me Away' was played in it's piano form instead of the regular album version.
- The first verse of 'Hands Held High' acapella was done over a piano piece and led into the 'What I've Done' album transition from 'Shadow Of The Day'.
- A Canadian flag was put on Mike's keyboard before 'Leave Out All The Rest'.
- Halfway through 'A Place For My Head', the lights went out. The band played the rest of the song in darkness. The lights came back on right near the end of 'One Step Closer'.
- The encore break was after 'Bleed It Out'.
- 'Breaking The Habit' was played as a keyboard-and-vocal only performance, like 'Pushing Me Away', for the first time ever. It featured the piano intro. This is also the first time that 'Breaking The Habit' has ever opened the setlist.
- Only Mike and Chester appeared on stage until 'What I've Done'.
- The band was still stuck on the runaway at the airport as of 8:00pm, trying to clear customs. They weighed several options, which included taking a helicopter to the show. They arrived at seperate times to the show. At the Meet and Greet later on, Phoenix abruptly said to a fan that "Mike has just arrived". It is possible that the band wanted to get Mike and Chester to the show first, so they could at least start the show, and bring the rest of the band later, but it is unsure of what actually ended up happening.

Other Notes:
- Thanks to ManBearPig for the setlist updates throughout the show and the full description afterwards.
- Scott from Stone Temple Pilots asked during the Stone Temple Pilots set where "his friend Chester" was. He was inviting him to come on stage and sing, like Chester did in 2001 with the band, but Chester was busy doing the Meet and Greet at the time.
