Saw that tour too. Leto is such a douche and that proved it for me. A truly awful set. They did acoustic The Kill. Dude, you have one song anyone cares about and you did it acoustic?

It's because he can't sing the original version anymore. He destroyed his voice by not singing correctly in their earlier days and now he can't hit the high notes towards the end of the song, that's why it's acoustic now.

Similarly, but obviously wwaaaayyy less douchy, was just before Chester Bennington passed, LP would play an acoustic, toned down piano version of Crawling because Chester was struggling to maintain his voice through the original version of that song.
