LPA reports that Mike will be performing on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon" on June 19th, the night before his album release show at New York City's Gramercy Theatre. The release week events include a signing at Looney Tunes on June 18th, this Tonight Show performance, and the Gramercy show. It's shaping up to be a great week in NYC. Tickets for the day are unfortunately already sold out.

Mike has added another stop to his Post Traumatic European Tour. On September 8th, he will visit Milano, Italy where he will open for 30 Seconds to Mars. Milano Rocks is a 3 night festival and 30 Seconds To Mars will headline one of the nights, at the Area Expo in Milano. As we've seen recently, Linkin Park attracted massive crowds in Italy on The Hunting Party World Tour (2014 and 2015) and the One More Light World Tour (2017), so an appearance by Mike in the country is more than fitting. Tickets can be found here.

You need to open the CD in "My Computer". Right click and Explore or something. The mp3 is just in a folder on the actual CD, you have to look at the actual files.

I think well under an hour and a half. 60 min set and an encore break, like 70 mins max from time on stage to time off. Probably like 60. Remember the Fort Minor headlining shows from start to finish were 50 minutes, including the encore break. I don't see him going over ten more minutes than that.

Why do you think there is no chance for a Stuttgart show? As an American it seems like Stuttgart is a very popular place in Germany. I might be completely wrong on that since I follow LP so much and have seen LP there. 30,000+ at the 2009 show is very impressive. And 2010 + 2014 arena shows. It is a city that has been on LP's radar to visit ever since they started expanding their Germany show reach in 2008. The cities that seem like are obvious for LP/Mike are Berlin, Hamburg, Koln, and Stuttgart. Maybe Munchen or Frankfurt? Am I wrong?

Fixed up. No problem. Awesome video.

Mike was on CBS Sunday Morning to discuss Chester and more. And here is the article.

Woah, thanks Trumtram! There is no telling how long that has been wrong on our show page. Many years. Glad to fix that. Looks like a nice area!

Toby says it's the only German date, Warner.de too. Wow.

Good news, Germany! Mike has added another headlining show to his Post Traumatic European Tour, this time at the Palladium in Köln, set for August 29th. If this venue sounds familiar to you, you might have seen that Linkin Park played the venue in twice in 2001 - opening for the Deftones in March and again headlining in September. LP also returned to the city in 2008, 2010, and 2014 for arena shows. Where should Mike add a show next?

Don Gilmore's post is great about saying Chester was working his ass of on Hybrid Theory and was the main driving force behind that album. Mike didn't start his semi-producer role until Meteora. Chester wrote a lot of stuff over the course of the band. The core songwriting units are Chester, Mike, and Brad. Rob, Dave, and Joe are like the icing on the cake, especially later albums. Sure, Mike comes up with song demos, melodies, and shit, but Chester is the main lyricist and a huge writer.

I think Mike said years later Kanye never recorded anything for Fort Minor but Mike wanted him at the time. Didn't work out. Now I could be referring to Big Daddy Kane. He mentioned one of these collaborations at one point.

MTM there is a ton of stuff for. Check eBay and European stores that are licensed for some throwback merch from that era, much of it that you can still buy. I got a lot of their new MTM merch items... I can't wait for them to arrive. I hope they arrive in time for the NYC album release stuff.

But for THP they played this exact same event plus an iHeartRadio event just after it. That's much bigger than an in store appearance at Amoeba.

Avenged had one of the worst sales periods ever for an artist their size due to how they released that album.

Looks like European headlining dates are being planned then. Get ready for 6-8 Germany shows lol The Moscow venue is 8,500 people. Huge.

UIB and LGM might easily be the two worst songs in the LP catalogue to me, lol. No way for me that this song is as bad as UIB. No way that song should have made it out of demo form. I can't base any opinions on reviews. People will say a song is terrible and it's great or say a song is awesome and it's odd. I look forward to hearing the album next week. I have liked everything released so far, with my least favoring being Crossing a Line. I still think Over Again should have been the first single. I held off on Running From My Shadow and Ghosts because I feel like the modern music climate releases WAY too much music from albums before its out. It's not just Mike, a ton of artists are doing this and it's ruining the cohesive feel of albums. Release a single and one more song, and that's it. Would have liked Mike to have just released the EP, Crossing a Line, and one other song.

Sounds like the genres of the album is all over the place.

Alright let's see how this general on sale goes.
