So, I was at the Linkin Park show last night and it was just amazing!
I was standing in the middle of the crowd or something like that, so I didn’t really get wonderful pictures or anything…but I did get a few where you can actually see who it is on stage, instead of it just being a random blur that -might- be Chester…or someone.
Mike was the one talking to the crowd the most. It’s not like they were rambling away to us, but they -did- speak to us. Chester was busy spazzing out, I guess. Lol, nah he was speaking too, but yeah. Besides, we were there for the music, not to listen to them ramble away.
And the music was amazing!!! I don’t really know what else to write, because it was just the best night of my life and unless you’re a hardcore fan who’s been to one of their shows for the first time, you have no idea as to what I’m talking about.
Set-list for Köln show:
01. Wake
02. Given Up
03. Lying From You
04. Somewhere I Belong
05. No More Sorrow
06. Don't Stay
07. Points Of Authority
08. In Pieces
09. Numb
10. My December (Piano Version)
11. Breaking The Habit (with Piano intro)
12. Shadow Of The Day (Chester played guitar)
13. Crawling
14. In The End
15. A Place For My Head
16. One Step Closer
17. What I've Done
18. In Between (Mike was amazing!!! Chester helped him out, but only a little bit, you could barely hear him in the background)
19. Bleed It Out
20. Faint
I was also at the Meet and Greet and that was insanely fast (46 seconds, according to the video I made) and just wonderful. I was nervous as hell, when I went in there. I was actually afraid that I’d throw up on Mike, who was sitting as number one at the table. Once I got in there, I wasn’t nervous…well, I was but I was rambling away at these poor guys. They must’ve thought I was absolutely crazy.
I had bought them all moaning-like-a-woman-having-an-orgasm-bottle openers and I almost forgot about them, so when I remembered, I threw them all on the table along with the cards, I’d written, and told them to just distribute them amongst themselves.
I said that the red one was for Chester and Mike was like ’Um, what does it do?’. I started this ramble about how it would moan and that he should just open a bottle with it and see what happened.
I was still rambling to Mike by the time I was in front of Chester (he was last) and I was saying how I was sure that Chester would love the bottle openers and when Chester went ’What?’ and looked straight at me, the rambling became even worse.
I’ll upload the video to YouTube, just to make a fool of myself all over the internet.
All in all? It was a f*cking amazing night and I’d be willing to do it all over again, some other time. In fact, I expect to do it all again, next time they’re in Denmark.
Thank you Linkin Park, for making my night an unforgettable one, and thank you Kathy for making this night possible for me.

I'll add the link for the video, once I figure out how to upload it.
