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.

A 2002 GHS graduate, Adam is marketing manager for the band. “Our first leg takes us all over Europe, from Lisbon, to Moscow, even to Romania. I leave in a month. Following that, we’re doing a huge U.S. tour with the band Incubus in August.” All tour dates are up at www.linkinpark.com/events/event/listFeatured. Adam has agree to blog from the Linkin Park world tour for galesburg.com, so check back for updates. Meanwhile, I asked Adam to fill us in on his duties with Linkin Park: My official title is Marketing Manager for Linkin Park Strategic Marketing. It’s a mouthful, I know. Here’s what that means: ...
