First of all, thanks Mark for tagging my Website. My opinion about new songs: I think if we have lucky, today I'll Be Gone will debut in the Setlist. Because since november the song is on the US Radios. Powerless will debut in New Zealand and both songs will be in the Setlist for the rest of the tour. Is my bet, i'm not good for bets but i'm pretty sure that IBG will debut tonight. Btw, Soul where is your Enthusiasm? I want your Setlist for tonight! -
75 minutes means, 20 songs. Not sure if we will get something new.

Thank you guys! And thank you both for following my work on Twitter and everything

Adam Ruehmer, also known as just Adam, is the man who works for Linkin Park at Machine Shop Marketing. His exact function is: Manager of Strategic Marketing for Linkin Park. He dedicates in creating marketing campaigns, releases, tours and special events. He takes care of the Linkin Park’s social networks; he administers Facebook, Twitter, Instragram, and LinkinPark.com Mostly, he is known as the Manager of the Linkin Park official fan club, called LP Underground, producing the annual package which is send worldwide. Also, he administers the events related to the fan club such as the Meet & Greets, LP Underground Summits (For e.g. the ones made in London, Sydney, Chicago, Hamburg and Tokyo) This is my English version of the Interview exclusive for LP Live Net. --------------------- Work to Linkin Park, does not mean you have to be a fan of Linkin Park, do you consider yourself LP fan? If so, since when? I've told some of the band members before that, in a way, I consider myself the BIGGEST Linkin Park fan in the world. I have to be. I want to know what the fans want, what they're doing, what they're talking about, what they like and what they don't like. I didn't consider myself a "fan" before I started working for them (February 2008), but I would definitely say I enjoy their music now. How did you met Linkin Park? The first time I met the band was on the set of the "Leave Out All The Rest" video. I had been hired about a month or so before then as an assistant at their marketing company, Machine Shop. What is your favorite Linkin Park's album and song right now? Favorite album is A Thousand Suns. Favorite song is either Burning In The Skies or Lying From You. I think I listened to Burning In The Skies 100 times when I got my copy of ATS. What music do you listen? What bands do you like? I like all kinds of music. Some of my favorite artists/bands are New Found Glory, The Get Up Kids, Saves The Day, Millencolin, Michelle Branch, The Graduate, Ludacris, Over It, Taylor Swift, Weaver At The Loom... All of them have albums I listen to on a pretty regular basis. Let's talk about LP Underground, tell us a little about the history of LPU, how borns LP Underground? I'm probably not the person to answer this as I only joined the team in LPU7. The LPU was started by Jessica Bardas (now Jessica Sklar) with Linkin Park in 2001. She had been helping the band with the street team and worked at WBR previously. How many years do have working for LPU and Linkin Park? February 11, 2013 will be 5 years working for Linkin Park. How are selected the Songs for the LPU CD's? Who choose the songs? Songs are chosen mostly by the band. They go through what stuff they have and what they'd like you guys to hear. LPUHQ really doesn't have much say in it since we don't really even know what they have! This year there will be more in LPU Auctions and Giveaways? If so, you could anticipate something? Definitely. We're trying to fix our currently broken auction site as we speak. It's not cooperating with us! What is your favorite story in LP Underground? If you're asking about my favorite memory since working here, I have a few... FIRST is going on tour. I never in a million years thought I'd get to travel the world with a band. It's a dream come true. Meeting fans every single night is so awesome. SECOND would be the trip to South Africa and planting trees with the school children. That day literally changed the lives of many of us who were there. I've never met such pure and beautiful children in my life. THIRD would be the scavenger hunt. I didn't sleep for that 2 weeks. I was pretty much making it up as it went along, and while it was the most stressed I've ever been, it was also some of the most fun I've ever had. I never imagined it would work out as well as it did. Did you know that our site has a project called BE UNDERGROUND, where we help Linkin Park fans who have no chance to buy memberships because of not having cards International to buy the LPU memberships? We had created more than 40 Accounts on LPU!. What do you think about it? I did not know about that. That is very cool. In Latin America we gave many gifts to the boys of Linkin Park during the M & G, did you know they had checked the gifts? Personally, with my girlfriend we gave them very funny things and a lot information about our country (Uruguay). The guys look at all the gifts you guys give them and we make sure they are brought back safely to LA! How was your first experience Touring with Linkin Park? Correct me if i'm wrong but 2012 was your first time with the band in a Tour. Touring was AMAZING. I had no idea what to expect. A lot of the crew has been touring with them for a really long time, so I was a bit worried they wouldn't be very welcoming to me. Fortunately, the crew are some of the nicest people in the world, and they were all incredible and made me feel very welcome. I had no idea how exhausting touring was, especially in Europe. Going on tour was definitely an experience I wouldn't trade for the world. Everyone imagine that working with Linkin Park is the best thing ever. You have reached much stress you at some point? At the end of the day, it's a job. I'm very fortunate that this is my job, but it's still a job. I guess just as stressed, maybe even more so, than someone who works at a bank, or a grocery store or at some other job. Most of the time, I'm just as excited to go to work on Monday as everyone else is.... which is not very. Lately, the guys of the Crew and you become very popular in Twitter, do you read everything that us (your followers) write to you? Not everything, but lots of things. Always fun to hear from you guys though! Feel free to follow me @heydudeimadam if you're not already! Do you know (and the band) the support the band has in Latin America? There are some websites like ours who work hard to bring the fans to Linkin Park, translating interviews and sharing everything. Did you visit Fan Sites? We are all very aware of the support from Latin America and all over the world. I used to visit fansites every single day, but now I use twitter to keep up with the sites more than visiting them. And the last one: What are your favorite Fort Minor and Dead By Sunrise songs? I don't think I have a favorite FM or DBS song. I dont think I've ever actually listened to the whole Fort Minor album (shh! don't tell Mike!) That came out a few years before I started working here. I guess I would say "Remember The Name" since that's the only song I can think of right now. HA! It's been a LOOOONG time since I listened to DBS. I think I remember I really liked "Fire" on that album. Hope you like it guys. All these interviews are made for my Website Wretches And Kings Net.

Agree with Mark, remember guys that the band is working in the Score for the Mall movie and maybe Shinoda will start to work on The Raid 2.

Damn you're flash! I think they will play on August 13. Because Metallica and Muse close the events on 10th and 11th.

Linkin Park "Studio Collection" / Deluxe Editions
maik_gianino replied to RogueSoul's topic in Newswire
I just heard NRL, sounds very fresh with the new drums. But the end of that drums before the Chorus is a bit rude, is like something missing in that part. SOTD, i like it, new strings. -
As a LP Collector i will buy 1 copy. But, something new would be awesome.

The never seen versions are very comun versions for a regular Linkin Park fan. I think iTunes and Warner just want to make some money, just for fun xD -

LPTV - 'CASTLE OF GLASS' Rehearsals & Spike VGA
maik_gianino replied to hahninator's topic in Newswire
Nice episode. Detail: Mike Shinoda had the same t-shirt that they had on the Private Rehearsal on Bristow. -
After like, 6 months of talks. Sean finally could answer my questions. Hope you like the interview guys: What are your musical influences? My biggest incluences were Depeche Mode, The cure, Sisters Of Mercy at the time we were playing. What motivates you to be a musician? I always loved music and writing songs and performing in front of crowds. Let's talk about the past, Grey Daze. I'm a big fan, i have the Original CDs and as i'm a lot of people love the band and want to know a lot of stuff... Apart from Sean Dowdell And His Friends and Grey Daze, which other bands you were a part of? Chester and I had an electronic experiement that was a heavy industrial sounding project called Sac, we only did 1 demo and I have not idea where it even it, that was poretty cool. Other than that I was in a band alled Waterface after Grey Daze broke up and we were signed to EMI and put out 1 record called seven days. Is amazing! I would like to know more about SAC. Any Artwork to share or at least the name of the Demo? No it was really only something we did for a few months an wrote about 4 or 5 songs. We never played any shows or anything but the concept was cool. How did you get Chester into your band "Sean Dowdell & His Friends"? It started out as a joke and at the time we couldn't think of a name so I shouted something stupid out and it we all laughed and used it for about a year or so as the name. none of us took it very sriously, but with a voice like Chesters of course we had a following pretty quickly. How was your relationship with Chester Bennington? We were best friends for a long time, he was always like my little brother and I was very protective of him as my friend. I would like to think that I had a very large impact on him as a friend. You can tell me your own Grey Daze story? The best, the most funny would be awesome. I remember one time we played a small club and had some experimental lighting stuff on the stage and somehow in the middle of the song the motor of the lights, trapped chesters mic chord and wound it up tight. So rather than give up Chester sat indian style on the stage and sang into the ground for an entire song until we could get the mic unraveled. I know I have many more stories but that came to mind first. Do you think that Grey Daze had projection to be a world famous band? Yes, we had no doubt that we had the songs and the product to be a good national band. The band ripped apart right when we had serious traction and radio play etc. Are there any unknown or unreleased demos/songs of "SD&HF" or "Grey Daze"? I am sure that there are a couple of other demos out there, they are untitled of course What was the biggest show Grey Daze played? We played quite a few big shows. At the end of the band we were drawing 1500-2000 people ourselves, but the biggest show I can remember was the Super Bowl Party in Az with No Doubt and Bush. i think there were 15k people there or something like that. Is there a possibility for some "Bucket of Weenies" shows? maybe also outside the US? Possibly, Chester and I really still love playing together and talk about it every once in a while. We are just so busy but I do think it will happen in the next couple of years. Talking about Bucket of Weenies, bring to my mind, Club Tattoo, how borns this amazing Club ? We started Club Tattoo in 1995 in the height of the band days with expectations to help pay our bills when we were on the road. We had no idea it would become so huge. There will be some projects between Club Tattoo and Linkin Park in the future? Of course, we will have them in the shop doing autograph signing in the stores and hopefully something cooler later on... You heard the last Linkin Park Album Living Things? Of course, I love it. If so / What do you think about this Album, and what is your favorite Song? I don't have a favorite, I listen to it as an album when I'm working out and different songs have different values to me. I think that Linkin Park is the hardest working band in the world. A lot of people ask me if I am upset or jealous that Chester is doing so well or they think that I wish it was me. That couldn't be further from the truth. i am one of his biggest fans/supporters. Those guys work their asses off and were literally willing to sleep in their cars, that is why they made it. They eat and breathe writing music and deserve very ounce of success that they get and I am proud of all of them. That's all Sean. Greetings from Uruguay, Southamerica. That's all folks, the inteview also was shared on my website, wretchesandkings.net On 2011 i did an interview with Mace Beyers i think is on the forum too haha. Greetings and Happy New Year!

LINKIN PARK returns to MEXICO (FEB/MARCH/APRIL/)
maik_gianino replied to JZLP-Benningstrong's topic in Live Talk
"Finally, the group Linkin Park will land for first time on Acapulco as part of the Living Things World Tour, also visited Arena Ciudad de Mexico in september where evoked more than 22.000 people." Also, like 10 sites posted the same information. Sounds legit. I was talking with "somebody" from Novedades Acapulco (I sent an email early in the night) and they answered me that the talks are advanced with the band. They didn't told me about the dates of the Festival, but i think will be on Febrery. Why? Because Luis Miguel (LOL) another artist on the list, will play on January and February on several dates in Mexico. We updated the information here: http://www.wretchesandkings.net/2012/12/24...-acapulco-2013/ -
Very emotive. Can see a very emotive message from Mike Shinoda. Say whatever you want, to me is one of the best LPTV.
