I was one of the lucky LPU members that were able to score tickets to their sold out concert at House of Blues in West Hollywood, California on Friday May 18, 2012. The concert was announced on April 29, 2012 (which was just 2 days after my birthday) and the tickets were to be sold the next day on Monday April 30. Being announced shortly after my birthday I decided that I had to go to the show no matter what it took! The capacity of the venue is around 1200 people and tickets to the show were in high demand and sold out in minutes! The show was definitely the best show that I have ever been to and let's cross our fingers that they do another LPU exclusive concert sometime in the near future!
Before the show, Chester and Mike arrived to unveil the 2012 Linkin Park designed Honda Civic and Motorcycle that will be raffled off throughout the Honda Civic Tour and awarded to one lucky winner at the end when the tour ends in September. Both the car and bike are designed beautifully with a hybrid of black, orange, and white with Linkin Park’s logo and I was there along with the press to get a prime view as press took photos. ...
New TV Shows and Season Premieres: Teasers and Trailers
Like many of you, I'm a huge fan of TV shows. My favourite ones are Once upon a time, Grimm, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Falling Skies, True Blood, The Big C & Good Wife, but there are also some cool new shows in the works. Here are a few teasers/trailers from new TV shows, as well as trailers from the new seasons of True Blood and Falling Skies.
Arrow (CW)
The tone of the series reminds me a bit of "Dark Angel" with Jessica Alba. The dude is not really my type, but that body is damn hot! XD

The CW are backing a harder, grittier, more believable superhero with their new Green Arrow-inspired Arrow series. If the first footage is anything to go by then they might be on their way to ticking all of those boxes.
Arrow will air this fall on Wednesdays at 8/7c on the CW

Fan Review: Linkin Park at the House of Blues in Los Angeles, CA
“The Official Review”: LPU @ HOB 5/18/12
By Dayna Brisco
Last night marked the opening show for the first leg of Linkin Park’s upcoming tour cycle. The event took place at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, CA on Friday May 18, 2012. Less than 2,000 lucky LPU members, friends, and fans of the band attended the exclusive performance. A small group of dedicated fans (including myself) showed up fairly early at the venue. Our goals set on getting a close spot on the floor, and a chance to finally meet our estranged LPU family members for the first time in the flesh....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANTIGONI!
The greatest Co-Author in the world is celebrating her birthday today!

The band’s tour begins May 18th to celebrate the release of their much anticipated new album, “Living Things.” During this tour, Linkin Park outdoor venues worldwide will be closely monitored for extraordinary weather events, employing WeatherOps exclusive color-coded system by which decisions regarding tour events, in relation to weather, will be made. In addition to adverse weather, production crews will receive daily updates regarding the forecast in the next tour stop, up to 7 days in advance.
