Thanks you guys. New facts added today:

When A Thousand Suns was released, Chester said that 'The Messenger' was the first LP song to use the word "love". Actually, 'And One', 'Points Of Authority', and 'In Pieces' all use it!
In December of 2010, Linkin Park brought up the same fan (Pez) at two different Australian shows to play 'Faint' on guitar: Newcastle and Sydney night 2. He's the first fan to play on stage twice!
The Minutes to Midnight touring cycle began and ended with 'One Step Closer' (Berlin 2007 and Pomona 2009).
The power went out mid-song on 'Breaking The Habit' at Pomona 2009. The band continued playing and the crowd sang in the place of Chester, but the problem caused the DSP for the show to be lost!
Linkin Park played their first shows in Israel and Abu Dhabi in November 2010.
The band has canceled three shows in Sweden over the years - in 2011 (9/11), in 2003 (Chester was sick) and in 2008 (Brad had an ear infection).
LP offered free tickets to the soldiers and families of active military personnel during the Projekt Revolution 2003 Tour.
Mike Shinoda is known to own more guitars (even a Hello Kitty one!) than Brad Delson!
Brad Delson's Red Custom 24 Paul Reed Smith guitar is one of the only ones ever made without the PRS logo on the headstock.
Due to licensing restrictions, the song 'Wisdom, Justice, & Love' can no longer be distributed though Linkin Park's DSP's. The last DSP to feature it was Tampa 2011.
On the A Thousand Suns World Tour, all of the footage shown on the screens behind the band during the show was made by a company called 'Ghost Town Media'.
Brad Delson is the only member on stage that doesn't use the in ear monitoring system. Instead, he wears heavy duty headphones to protect his sensitive hearing.
Linkin Park has contributed music to all three Transformers movies so far. One song was made specifically FOR the movie - 'New Divide'! 'What I've Done' was in the first movie and 'Iridescent' was in the third.
'Foreword' was the very last thing contributed musically to Meteora.
Chester wrote the lyrics to 'Easier To Run' before any of the music was created.
Though the final recording of 'Faint' is 135bpm, the original demo was only at 70bpm!
'Session' took over a full year to finish!
The demo for 'Hands Held High' was initially called 'Song Q', and was the only song that Brad concieved that ended up on the album.
In 2011, Linkin Park took their Projekt Revolution Tour back to Europe for the second time (2008 was the first). However, the USA didn't get a Projekt Revolution for the first time on a touring cycle!
Linkin Park performed at both the Transformers 2 premiere (Los Angeles in 2009) and the Transformers 3 premiere (Moscow in 2011)!
2011 is the first year that the band has released European festival shows as DSP's. From 2007 to 2010, they have never released any European festival shows!
A November 2006 issue of Rolling Stone magazine first revealed the working title of 'Bleed It Out', entitled 'Accident'.
'H! Vltg3' off of Reanimation samples a song called "All For One" by the group Brand Nubian. The members of the group are credited in the liner notes of the album.
Linkin Park was forced to cancel five shows on their North American Tour in 2011 due to Chester being sick. Two of them were rescheduled for the end of the tour - Dallas and Houston.
The North American Tour in 2011 made it the third consecutive tour in the winter to have shows canceled in the USA due to Chester being sick - 2004, 2008 and 2011.

Edited the fact about the South American shows. 99 was replaced.

Actually, as far as I remember, Pooch told me that the show wasn't lost, they just decided to not release it because it was only recorded up to Breaking The Habit.
