Mike wanted to light Chester on fire
Sunday, February 13, 2011
Interesting interview with Rockerrazzi where Mike talked about setting Chester on fire! Quoting Mister Shinoda:
You know, the economy being what it is, money is being a little tight for everybody... So we can't get the pyrotechniques we normally get so instead of that, I'm gonna just light Chester on fire. First show, we'll go big with this and we'll see what happen from there. I think it's gonna be pretty spectacular.
Did he know?
No, of course not. In my head it's going to be really fun and exciting and I see a lot... I mean, the screams of the song being really elevated, it's gonna be really awesome.
Mike and Chester 'the Transformer Dinosaur' (also, the infamous Phoenix) made an announcement for the Staples Center show on February 23rd, 2011. The couple + 'mouthwash' hints + whispering nicknames = WIN. Some screencaps
Doesn't that scream 'Kiss me, I'm contagious'? Watch the video and DOWNLOAD the HD version under the cut. Read more »
Chester's wife has uploaded a video of Chester talking to the LGBT youth and all the victims of bullies in general as a part of the "It gets better" project. As a LGBT, this means a lot to me personally. My heart sent to the Benningtons for what they have done for the young and the depressed out there. Together, we will make it get better!

My apology for the slowness on the front page these days. I have been sick and both of the admins (Jules and I) have been very busy. Linkin Park has been back, powerful more than ever with their very first tour in South America. Concert goers, if any of you have been there enjoying them, any feedbacks?
A big thank-you to Rose Marie for sending us two videos of the ending at the Buenos Aires, 7th October 2010 show. There's a small moment between the two boys - we hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

Linkin Park Drop the Bomb, Revel in the Aftermath of 'A Thousand Suns'
Thursday, September 30, 2010
Noisecreep has an intriguing interview with Mike and Chester about the aftermath of "A Thousand Suns"
Mike Shinoda: When we were writing 'A Thousand Suns,' we did some interviews where we called it a concept record 'cause at the time I think we were thinking that's what we might be doing.
Chester Bennington: It was a sexy idea, making a concept record. It felt challenging and we wanted to challenge ourselves, so that was appealing. And then we realized very quickly that would put a lot of our creativity into a single box and kind of work against the free flowing ideas that we had.

Finally! Here is the moment we are all awaiting: the infamous NYC kiss. Thanks MeMyselfandI for the tip and drewboi83 for the video. You can watch the video here
The sound is a little ear-bleeding, you may wanna put your volume down a little.
Some screencaps of the lovebirds
Out of three times Mike kissed Chester, two happened in New York City. What's the secret charm the city is embracing that creates magic upon these two all the time? Concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there's nothing you can't do, now you're in New York? NYC, you are special.
Don't forget to check out the beautiful videos recorded at the show posted on Linkin Park's MySpace
