I’ve added pictures from Linkin Park’s shows in Denver and Salt Lake City to the gallery, the ones from Salt Lake City were taken by a MIX 107.9fm competition winner who won the opportunity to spend the day being a photographer for the show! He also took photos of Chester and Phoenix taking part in a press conference, which I have also added to the gallery.

Also I found this where Mike and Chester discuss the balance within the band, their live show and fame.

On the band’s dynamic:



Shinoda • The whole band sees itself as a collective of equals, and Chester and I only play frontmen when it’s time to take photos or stand onstage. I think that’s one thing that makes our band work. We respect each other’s ideas and we’re also not afraid to speak our minds.



Bennington • I don’t feel like I have something that … I couldn’t present to the band. We kind of, when I started writing the music for [my solo project] Dead by Sunrise, I felt like they were stylistically outside of our box. At that point, we hadn’t worked with [producer Rick Rubin] and we hadn’t really examined what the future was going to be. We hadn’t gotten into those kinds of talks yet and so I used to say that. I don’t have that problem anymore. I don’t have that feeling of, “Is this right or is this wrong for LP?” Because, honestly, anything goes. I mean, what we’re doing now in the studio over the last two records is completely fulfilling in every way.
