Fan Review: Pinkpop Festival (27/05/2012), Landgraaf/Netherlands by Kelly Gios

After weeks of anticipation, finally the day had arrived that a friend and I went to the Netherlands to see Linkin Park at Pinkpop festival. It was going to be the first time, and I was really looking forward to it. In the last few weeks I made friends with Kealyn and Vera at the LPU website. We decided to meet up at the festival. I was at the parking lot when I saw another girl with an LPU shirt. But I was so nervous I totally didn’t recognise Vera! Kealyn was waiting for us at the entrance. As we got to know each other better, we felt connected to each other because we share the same passion: Linkin Park. We got along great and bonds for life were being made at Pinkpop. This is a perfect example of how LPU can bring true LP fans together! ...

Fan Review: Linkin Park at Rock in Rio, Lisbon (Portugal) by Fabio

Hey guys, I’d like to apologize as I’m writing not only about LP performance, but the whole experience I had that day. The reason I’m doing that? Cause this was my first LP concert and meet+greet so I felt that wouldn’t be fair to share with you what this day meant to me in many ways . Big thanks to Adie for letting me write this down on her blog =) Saturday, May 26th, the BIG day has finally come, I was pretty sure that day had the necessary trumps for each LP(Uer) fan/Street Soldier to succeed and accomplish what they hopelessly wanted, see Linkin Park having a blast with their loyal fans as ONE . It was time for me to move on, and go straightly to Rock in Rio which was about to be my LP debut concert. I took the train to Bela Vista (RiR Venue), and fortunately met my friend Rita and Monique on the way. They looked just like me but especially Rita, eyes overflowing  joy while her smile from tooth to tooth were proving excitement for keeping in mind that Linkin Park was separated from us for  just few hours. We got there finally, and we got caught up in the middle of like a thousand people in line to enter the venue. Some of em’ wearing their “music” from  heaviest to the softest music style, not just the bands who were about to perform, from Pink Floyd to Motorhead, The Offspring to Linkin Park. I was glad to see most of em’ wearing  LP shirts, for me the alleged headliner for that day. I could hear some fans shouting their lyrics while the line was moving forward to the main entrance, unwittingly I started to picture how would it be the whole thing, when they finally appear *.* .. ...

Fan Review LPU Roadie for the Day Special: Rock in Rio Lisbon/Portugal (26.05.12) by Cátia Marques

Hey there, guys. First of all, I would like to say that I’m really happy about reviewing for Adie’s blog, it’s my first time doing so. I hope you’ll enjoy reading it

So, on Saturday’s morning my best friend and I started to get ready to go to Rock in Rio. I had stayed at her house on the day before, since she lives near the venue. We got there around lunch time (1 pm) and we joined some other fans that were already waiting. There were still 3 hours to go till the doors would open, so we just sit there and some of us started to play Linkin Park songs on our phones. It was really sunny and hot and there were times when I started to feel a bit dizzy (back pain wasn’t helping at all), so I was really happy when the doors finally opened and we got in.

I had planned to meet Adam at 4 pm, near a huge pink tower (the same place where we would meet up for the M + G, later that night). Once I got there, I immediately saw him taking pics of the main stage and the crowd. We talked for a couple of minutes, before we headed to the merch booth. Once we got there, we saw some really cool Linkin Park shirts and I thought about getting one, with Adam quickly approving it. I decided to get a LIVING THINGS shirt with all the tour dates, I thought that one was pretty nice.

Video: Evanescence Live at Rock in Rio Full Show

Evanescence were really good at Rock in Rio. They played a nice set of their older songs and new ones from their latest album "Evanescence" (which is great by the way). Amy was vocally great, but somehow the crowd wasn't really that energetic. Maybe it just wasn't transported well in the video, but when you compare it to the 83,000 people who attended Linkin Park's performance at Rock in Rio, this looks really lame. Watch Evanescence's full show after the jump! ...

Linkin Park Debut New Track … And Want Fansite To Leak It

Zane Lowe with the Linkin Park fans that found the final clue in the Linkin Park Scavenger Hunt | Photo: LPAssociation

Yesterday, Linkin Park have ended their Scavenger Hunt, which took the fans all around the world with little clues and riddles hidden in Sydney, Tokyo, Toronto, Chicago, Rio, LA, Berlin and London (read more here). The final clue was a password protected pen drive containing a brand new Linkin Park song - the problem was that the pen drive would automatically erase itself when the wrong password was typed in! The fans were told to get the password in the BBC studios in London during the Zane Lowe show. The track "LIES GREED MISERY" was premiered live on air with the fans present in the studio and Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park calling in to congratulate them. One of the fans getting the last clue was Joe, who is co-running one of Linkin Park's most popular fanpages, the LPAssociation. As a special reward, Mike Shinoda told Joe to personalize the filename of the LIES GREED MISERY mp3 on the pendrive and leak the song! You can now exclusively and legally download "LIES GREED MISERY" on LPAssociation!...

I must admit that I’m a bit sad about the hunt ending. It was fun to discuss all the clues in the ...
