Linkin Park – Until It Breaks (Datsik Remix)

We, the LPUers, have decided to schedule a weekly meet up in the LPU chat on Sundays at 8pm German time.
This means, that if you’re only occasionally in the LPU chat like many members, you can be sure that on Sundays the chat is actually full, so it’s worth to stop by.
If you like to chat and meet other LP fans, don’t be shy. Join the meet up if you can!
I know that many LPU members just stop by the chat when there’s a band chat scheduled, but this meet up is only once a week.
Remember that you pay to be a part of a great community. This is an awesome opportunity to meet many cool people and maybe make it your weekly Sunday evening date.
I’m looking forward to seeing you guys there! Please spread the word on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and on all the forums (LPL, LPA, LPU).

Chester Bennington is the new lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots! Chester joined the band at KROQ’s Weenie Roast on stage, yesterday, but that’s not all that happened. They have also released a new track, you can download exclusively on radio.com.

In an interview with KROQ STP guitarist Dean DeLeo said:

Chester has a one-of-a-kind voice that we’ve admired for a long time. We know LINKIN PARK will always be his priority, but we thought it would be cool to try something together. We managed to find the time to record a song and we’re all really happy with the result.

Chester himself told KROQ:

I’ve loved STP since I was 13 years old and they’ve had a huge influence on me. When the opportunity came up to do something creative with them, I jumped at the chance. The guys in Linkin Park have been incredibly supportive of me undertaking this project while I’ve continued to work on new music with LP.

You can check out a teaser trailer and the live recordings from Weenie Roast here

Because Linkin Park is taking time off from touring to record their next studio album & soundtrack for Joe Hahn’s “The Mall,” I thought it would be fun to do some “OFF TOUR INTERVIEWS” with the Touring Crew.
I have been fortunate enough to network with some of the touring staff of the Linkin Park camp during the last year through social media as well as in person during Linkin Park events/shows. Adie has already done a few “Meet the Crew” interviews so I wanted to continue with the interviews and ask them questions besides Linkin Park related ones just so we can get to know awesome the staff (not that we don’t already know this).

I attended the show at PH! Live at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas and kicked back with Warren before he headed off to New Zealand and Australia. Before leaving for the airport, He promised me an interview for LP Fan Corner when he got back and both had time. Here it is for all of you to enjoy!

Hi Warren. Thanks for chatting with LP fan corner again! Can you tell anyone that missed your first interview with our Admin Adie what you do for linkin park?

Hi my name is Warren and I’m a Joe-a-holic

What other musicians have you worked for?
In reverse order it’s been Linkin Park, Slipknot, Demi Lovato, The Bravery, AFI, Ke$ha, Scissor Sisters, Adam Lambert, Maroon 5, Ashlee Simpson, Jessica Simpson

What have you been doing since the NZ/AU shows?

Wishing I was bac in NZ/AU

What’s been your favorite place to tour & why? (Doesn’t have to be a place that you toured with LP to)

NZ obviously, but South Africa was amazing too, anywhere you can go shark diving is OK by me.

At the start of the Asia tour, you will be with the LP touring staff for a year. What’s your funniest memory so far?
A year! That’s it.. its funny everyone is always asking me if I remember this time when… But I don’t because I wasn’t there, even though it feels like it.

Funniest = having South American airlines destroy my luggage, you wouldn’t think that was funny, but it was so destroyed all I could do was laugh..

What’s the best thing about working for Joe/LP?

Getting to work for the most entertaining guy in one of the best bands of the last decade.

Since you’ve been with the touring staff the least amount of time, do you feel like the baby of the family (picked on a lot, pranks while you’re sleeping, etc) or do you enjoy it because you’ve been with staff that have been with LP a long time as well asmany other great artists?

Sleeping pranks are only appropriate for people who fall asleep in the front lounge of the bus. No, the fact that I am even with LP proves that I have been doing this long enough… there is no new guy treatment.

In the most recent LP-TV episode “You’re a Legend,” You can see Warren & the rest of the crew doing their set change starting at 4:13. Thank you so much to Mark Fiore for giving a glimpse into their world. Being at the barricade for 90% of the shows I attended, I enjoy watching how fast they change the set & how great of a team they are. I’ve heard great things from a lot of the crew members on what a great family they are on the road and they really are what help to have a great show.

FUN STUFF

If you Weren’t doing what you’re doing now, what job do you think you would have?

I’d be a helicopter pilot.

Can you play any instruments?
Pooch and I are both products of Berklee college of music.. My principle instrument is drums but I play piano too, and my college degree (Bachelors) is for Drum set performance. Pooch’s instrument was bass. We should start a band.

What television shows do you watch regularly?

I don’t have TV… but I find a “magic” way to keep up with Dexter,the Simpsons Sunny in Phila, 30 Rock and The Office.

What’s the last good movie you saw?
My favorite movie of all time just became Wreck it Ralph

What’s your favorite food?
I’m a vegetarian. So stuff without meat.. Im a sucker for a grilled cheese from in-n-out.

Thank you so much to Warren for taking time off from being off tour to chatting with me. Look for more interviews with touring staff while we anxiously await the Sunset Strip Music Festival in LA & the Living Things Asian tour that starts in August!

Dear LPFC readers,

that didn’t take so long, did it? We are up and running, and I’m very happy to present you the new version of Linkin Park Fan Corner!

New Layout

As you can see, the layout is now very media driven, and to say it plainly, absolutely epic!
In the top slider, you can see the latest news presented to you in a cool design. The carousel beneath it, has the latest videos that were posted on LPFC.
We now have two sidebars, so you don’t have to scroll too much. Also, some of the less important widgets were removed.
If you want to read the blog, I advice you to click the “View more” button. It will take you to a full width view of the blog, no sidebars!
I hope you like the new layout! Leave a comment!

New Topics

In the menu, you can see the new Press section. There you will find a list of articles and videos mentioning Linkin Park. Since some of them write about the same topics, I tend to just tweet them, instead of posting all of them. Still, it’s nice to have an overview of press coverage on the blog as well. More articles will be added to the section soon.

Soon to be added, are the sections “Interviews”, “Fan Art” & “Remixes and Covers”. While the last two ressorts are self explanatory, I prefer we talk about the Interviews section at a later date. Stay tuned ;-D.

New Team Members

I’m very happy to announce that the LPFC team will be joined by Paul Gardiner and Lizzi Cloverman! Both are from the UK and they are actually a couple (“Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww”).
Some of you might know them from the LPU, cause they are very active on LPU and you can meet them very often in the chat, there.

More Team

LPFC will now be more team driven! Instead of just me posting everything, while the others write the occasional review, the team members now have a certain ressort.

You can find the new team members and their ressorts on this page!
