On December 18, 2010, LPLive caught up with Sam Herrington, a member of the Linkin Park touring crew on the "A Thousand Suns" World Tour. Sam takes responsibility for filming the band and the crowd during the live performances and his work is prominently displayed on the screens behind the band (both on the "V" stage and the regular stage). We came up with general questions about his job, how he got involved with the touring industry and Linkin Park, and his hobbies. Click the link below to find out all about Sam!
http://lplive.net/interviews/sam.php Here's one of our interviews we recently conducted, with hopefully more coming soon! Thanks for the support guys and Merry Christmas! I thought this would be a good precursor to the North American Tour! Sam is a good guy and we're grateful he allowed us to interview him. This is one of my favorite interviews we've done to date! Sam goes into depth with his answers and gives really solid, detailed information for us. Check it out and let us know what you think below! -------------------- QUOTE Victim of the 2011 Atlanta plot twist!

Sweet interview!!! It really opened my eyes. I'm thinking about becoming an audio engineer and possibly going into this line of work, so this was an interesting read. Thanks so much!!!!

I really enjoyed reading this interview. Alwys great to learn something about "behind - the - scenes" - stuff from the touring crew
