My favourite Linkin Park moment....would be hard to choose one even though, I only been to one show on June 10th, 2008 in my country.
Me and my friends showed up to the arena where the show was about 7 hours earlier. We were travelling by train. I still don't get it why my friends were down for my idea to "be first in line". We were wondering around the place until about 7 pm (1 hour before the show). I was slowly losing my mind because I was too excited to see Linkin Park for the first time ever in my life. And the people who have showed up we excited as well. Turns out my plan to show up insanely early there paid off - the line was so long that my friend barely saw the end of it. It continued through a couple of blcoks for sure. I was so happy that I was in front of the line. Before 8 pm they started letting us in, my legs were already hurting. But Linkin Park weren't hurrying to start their show, the warm-up band showed up and were playing for about an hour. I thought they would never end...until the intro of One Step Closer came. (It was the first song of the setlist). Chester's energy pumped me up from a trance of boredom. I was singing along and jumping around like crazy. In the middle of the show, the crowd only started doing a mosh pit. It was really fun, but I got some weird looking brouses on my legs. I even managed to push myself to the front, near the stage somehow, but I should have stayed somewhere in the middle of the crowd. Soon enough, when Leave Out All The Rest started, Mike asked us to put up some lights to make an awesome sight. Indeed it was. I did not want for the song to ever end. Chester's voice was so amazing. When In The End started, Chester told us he'll go down to the crowd and let us sing along. He got down, I was right near him. I waved to Chester, he waved me back and smiled. I tried to give him my hand for him to shake it, because I felt like I was still dreaming. Chester touched my hand, and during the chorus he said he doesn't hear us, then he and Mike put the microphones. It was really amazing how 13, 000 people were singing along.
Only when Mike told us that Faint is going to be the last song, I realized that those 2 hours went by too quickly. I gave it my all. The one reason why I felt kind of depressed after the gig ended was that it ended so fast.
Yeah, I know I should've written a moment, but the whole show and the time spent before the show waiting for the time to come passed by like a one wonderful moment.
