"Live in Texas" is Linkin Park's first live album and third DVD (following "Frat Party at the Pankake Festival" and "The Making of Meteora"), first released on November 18, 2003.

About the record

The DVD comes with a bonus CD that features twelve of the songs from the DVD. The other five live tracks can be found on the "Linkin Park Underground V3.0" CD. The audio on the CD is mixed differently from the audio on the DVD. The DVD/CD comes in two versions: a CD case and, although harder to find, a DVD case.

The concert footage was shot on August 2 and August 3 during the Summer Sanitarium Tour 2003 at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas and Texas Stadium in Irving, Texas.

The video footage is made up of the audio from the Dallas show and video from both the Houston and Dallas shows; because of this the band had to wear the same clothes on two shows, although there are still noticeable differences. For example, it can be seen that Mike Shinoda wears two similar but different shirts, Brad Delson's guitar sometimes changes multiple times in the middle of songs from a red PRS to a black Ibanez, despite there being no break in the guitar, as well as lead singer Chester Bennington's shirt soaked with sweat, and it being completely dry the next time he's shown on screen.
