*** (15:49):Bienvenue au salon Linkin Park Underground, chesterbennington
chesterbennington dit à (16:11): (6)hi
chesterbennington dit à (16:11): it's chester
chesterbennington dit à (16:11): i am in the studio working with howard benson working on my solo record, eating a banana
chesterbennington dit à (16:11): pretty exciting
chesterbennington dit à (16:12): ok let's go

Big_Bad_Lukas dit à (16:12): Hi Chaz! How is The Work On The New Album ?? Are You Still So Inspired to Write New Music Like You Were Before?? Greetings From Ireland!!
br1an dit à (16:12): Hello Chester, Vecel is a cool brand, have you designed all things from Vecel yourself? And thanks for come to Germany with PR08.

chesterbennington dit à (16:13): Big Bad Lucus- working on the new record has been a great experience, i am much more involved in the process than i would be with LP, which has taught me a lot, and writing music is always fun and it's always easy to be inspired writing something.
chesterbennington dit à (16:13): It's just writing something good that's the hard part.

Blazey dit à (16:13): Hi Chester! I was wondering if there are any tour plans in the works to help promote your upcoming solo album?

chesterbennington dit à (16:14): No actually we hire illustrators to work on designs, I basically am more around for directional- more like a creative director, and also my partners do all the fits and pick all the types of cloth we're going to use and what kind of textures we're going
chesterbennington dit à (16:14): use, so it's a colaboration between artists and the owners.

Caroline_Bennington dit à (16:15): the day u left from athens i was the only one to be there just to say goodbye and you sent me your bdguard, why would you do that?

chesterbennington dit à (16:17): Yes plans on touring for my solo record, but no solid plans yet, we want to play as much as we can

Chemist999 dit à (16:17): Does the fact that you're approaching this record artistically as a "concept" album also affects the writing process itself, e.g. if you've switched from the pairs system, or if it means you have to work more closely with all others developing your ideas?

chesterbennington dit à (16:18): Chemist999- That would be more like a project LP was working on. It is more difficult working on a concept then just a song, and you do have to work on outside interests playing a part in what you're doing. We're not stuck on a concept record, we
chesterbennington dit à (16:19): just want a good record, maybe that's the concept- not being conceptual at all.

clue54819 dit à (16:19): i worked for music for relief on aug. 16 2008 we raised over 14000 i was wondering if you know what the most raised from a single concert was or if that was it? the m4r people let me come back to meet you guys because i raised most of that money.
chesterbennington dit à (16:20): clue- you are a badass!
chesterbennington dit à (16:20): I don't have any solid info on what was the single largest contribution and from where it came from, so not sure.

DudeWtf dit à (16:21): Hi Chester. I think its amazing that after everything you've been through in life you found your callings and are awesome at it.My question is what advice would you give to those who want to make something out of themselves but haven't found their calling?
chucky8810 dit à (16:21): hey chester i was wondering since u guys evolved soo much from the 1st couple of albums to minutes to midnight, for ur new album can we expect more the old stuff or more like minutes to midnight, or something complely new. luv y guys keep rocking!!!

chesterbennington dit à (16:22): Dudewtf- That's a good question. You know I think that's prob the most difficult thing in life to do, find something you are really passionate about it. But if acting is something you enjoy doing, doesn't mean you have to make that what you
chesterbennington dit à (16:22): persue in life, I'd still be singing in a band even if i didn't have a record deal
chesterbennington dit à (16:22): But i'd also have to find a real job to pay for my expensive hobby. so i think confusing financial success with finding the thing you are good at are 2 different things
chesterbennington dit à (16:23): for some people having kids is what they are really good at, and you don't get paid for that

Darkzero88 dit à (16:23): hey chester at first i want to thank you for your awesome concert in D?sseldorf last year, and now i want to know if LP is going to Rock am Ring in the next 3 years. Greetings to You, Mike and the rest of LP from Marcel & Norman

chesterbennington dit à (16:23): I think being open to finding what it is you are passionate about is the hardest part.

danroxout dit à chesterbennington (16:23): Chester, I understand that you've written Linkin Park's next album as a concept album, can you tell us what it's theme is about, can you unveil any titles, and will the protools that Mike recently demoed influence it in any way? Thanks Alot! Dan
dereklp dit à (16:23): What's you alcoholic drink of choice, be it mixed drink or beer? If beer which brand?

chesterbennington dit à (16:23): Nobody in rock and roll has the next 3 years planned out
chesterbennington dit à (16:24): We always enjoy playing those shows so anytime we can do them we will
chesterbennington dit à (16:24): dereklp- i don't know- jet fuel?

EvoOba dit à EleniV (16:25): ??The goal is to do something bigger than just an album, not just release it as album, but release it as an album and some.?? Any thoughts or comments on this one? Greetings from Greece
Extreme dit à (16:25): How do you maintain the high level of creativity in making & writing of every albums? And what is the best thing about being a musician?

chesterbennington dit à (16:25): Don't jump to any conclusions on what the next record is going to be, we always use protools and i prefer braughtwurst over hot dogs

Dr_Acula dit à (16:26): Hi Chester, I was wondering what is the meaning behind the song "In Pieces" ? Thanks Jessica =)

chesterbennington dit à (16:26): Extreme- I don't really know what makes creative people creative, I generally don't listen to a whole lot of music all the time because I like to kind of being open to hearing something original in my head that I could put down.
chesterbennington dit à (16:26): Now I mostly listen to what's going on in my brian, which can be frightening sometimes
chesterbennington dit à (16:27): I used to listen to a lot of different things
chesterbennington dit à (16:28): Dr Acula- I forget.

Felipeintheend dit à chesterbennington (16:28): Hey chaz. Well, do you think Linkin Park will be some kind of "Rolling Stones"? Do you think you guys will be 60 and still rockin' out with concerts? What do you think about this, is it possible? It'd be really good! Brazil love you guys!
Franny dit à (16:28): Hey Chester! How many songs are you thinking about recording on this next album? if you can tell us. Greeting From Malta. Love you lots!!!

chesterbennington dit à (16:28): If I tell you what it's really about, it's going to mess up what you think it's about.
chesterbennington dit à (16:28): Because that's what it should be about :)
chesterbennington dit à (16:29): That would be fun if we were all old and wrinkly and gross and still rocked out, I'm down for that! I'll do it as long as my body lets me.
chesterbennington dit à (16:29): Franny- One billion trillion
chesterbennington dit à (16:29): And we're going to use 8 of them :)

Febe dit à chesterbennington (16:30): Chester, first of all hi from Kaytee my other lp obsessed friend ;) Well question what age did you started singing and do you have some advice on how to get far in the music industry? and happy late perthday to Rob ;)
Felicity dit à (16:30): Hi Chester, ive just given up my career to go to university to do a writing and production degree, i get really inspired by your lyrics and adore writing, what advice would you give to someone who is just starting out in this scary business?

chesterbennington dit à (16:30): chukky 8810 question from before- I like to think it's new. I think the stuff we're writing is really different in a lot of ways
chesterbennington dit à (16:30): And I think it will be a nice mix between the two
chesterbennington dit à (16:30): Somewhere in the middle
chesterbennington dit à (16:31): We're going to get like weird science and we're going to take the hottest pieces of every girl and make the perfect girl on our computer and sell it to you guys
chesterbennington dit à (16:31): And you guys are going to be cooler

Guerrero dit à EvoOba (16:32): Hi Chaz! I'm Paul from Athens, Greece, thanks for coming past summer. Each Ve'cel shirt is special, with different design that makes the one who wears it feel like rockstar. What inspires you to help you and your team make these creatively designs? Thanks!
GreenEyedKatydid dit à (16:32): Hey chester, often do you listen to the radio, and is there anything about it you would like to see changed?

chesterbennington dit à (16:32): Febe- OK i started singing when i was really little, just because i thought it was fun. I didn't start singing in bands until 13-14, but i pretty much sang my whole life. Anyone who has good advice on making it in the music industry, needs to write it
chesterbennington dit à (16:32): down and sell it! because even people who should do well in the music business don't seem to anymore
chesterbennington dit à (16:33): Guerrero- I think the most inspirational stuff for merch is to look at the bad stuff from other bands, and think we don't want to do that!
chesterbennington dit à (16:34): Greeneyedkatydid- I listen to the radio only in my car, and i think if radio stations let the DJs have a little more freedom in terms of programming, more people would listen

Goona dit à crwaling (16:34): hey chester, did you ever think about doing some work with an orchestra, like recording a few songs including violins and all that stuff to do something completely different from the 'normal' linkin park sound?

chesterbennington dit à (16:35): goona- we have actually done that before. it's just that we rock so hard you can't hear it
chesterbennington dit à (16:35): we've used orchestral componenets on songs like breaking the habit, no roads left, numb, others too
chesterbennington dit à (16:35): all the stuff with live strings
chesterbennington dit à (16:35): usually anywhere you hear strings, they were done live

Halle242 dit à (16:36): What song has inspired you the most when it came to writing it? And how did it inspire you?
hollatip dit à talisshort (16:36): Are you working on any collaborations on other artists albums? Are there any guest apperances on the new album? Loved the Road to Revolution DVD.thanks
hmw95 dit à (16:36): My friend and I are trying to find a bassist and a drummer for our band, can you give me some advice with finding one? (I'm a singer and my friend is a Guitarist)

chesterbennington dit à (16:36): hollatip- no, no collaborations, and no there are no guest spots on the new record
chesterbennington dit à (16:37): hmw95- good luck, no one wants to be a bass player, and no one can play drums
chesterbennington dit à (16:37): um you know normally when bands are in the position to find people, they will go to rehearsal spaces saying looking for bass and drummer if you are interested here's what we want to sound like etc. give us a call
chesterbennington dit à (16:37): and then you wait

I_am_Lizz dit à (16:38): So, Chester any idea when Dead by Sunrise's album will be out? Everything I have heard from it has been amazing so I can't wait! (L) Also greetings from Buffalo, NY, and I hope 2009 is a great year for you, your family and Linkin Park
IBLong dit à (16:38): have you ever considered going oversees to play for the troops?
IBnumb dit à (16:39): If you were to do a duet with a female singer, just for fun, who would it be?

chesterbennington dit à (16:39): i am lizz- thank you! we're probably looking in realistic terms for Sept for Dead by Sunrise, it will be ready before then
chesterbennington dit à (16:39): but it will make most sense to probably put it out that time
chesterbennington dit à (16:40): IBLONG- we have considered going overseas to play for the troops, for some reason timing wise it usually doesn't work out in terms of when they want us to go and we're booked, or we're not touring

JenJen dit à darknessovrme (16:40): I would like to know what song is hardest on you either emotionally or physically to perform and why?

chesterbennington dit à (16:40): we're open to the idea though

jennifercoon dit à darknessovrme (16:40): Hi Chester, thanks for chatting with us. Is the new LP album going to be centered around a graphic novel or some other sort of story?

chesterbennington dit à (16:40): jennifercoon- don't know but that's a good idea
chesterbennington dit à (16:40): not sure though

junko1014 dit à Midler0506 (16:41): Hey Chester, when you're stuck on something at the studio, how do you usually get over it? Playing ping pong!?
kaji5785 dit à (16:41): When is there going to be a women's line for VeCel and will there ever be a Club Tattoo in Texas, I want my first tat to be from there, thanks!

chesterbennington dit à (16:41): jenjen- emotionally -when we wrote it it was breaking the habit, it was hard to sing but i got over it, physically- given up and crawling

Kenoa dit à chesterbennington (16:41): Chester, in the music making, what can you say it is the biggest challenge to you? Wishes of all of the luck from Portugal.

chesterbennington dit à (16:41): i think those ones are more obvious
chesterbennington dit à (16:42): junko- ping pong is a good idea- usually when i find myself stuck i just stop and rewrite the part instead of chasing it so hard. if something's not working i usually drop it and move on to something new.
chesterbennington dit à (16:42): Kenoa- writing lyrics is probably the biggest challenge

LPrex dit à DarthYak (16:43): If say you make music that sounds really good to you but turns out its not what the fans are looking for, then what direction do you take?

chesterbennington dit à (16:43): that's the hardest part. you can have a good melody and not know what to say. that sucks.
chesterbennington dit à (16:44): LPrex- we're generally not thinking about what fans are going to think of the song. we've come to the conclusion it's probably impossible to give everyone what they want so we're trying to do what we like. it's worked out pretty well so far.

lp_schnuller dit à DarthYak (16:44): hey chester, will you play the mmm...cookies songs from the new undergroundcd live? thanks for the great concerts in dusseldorf, munich and frankfurt last year, i was there and it was unbelievable!

chesterbennington dit à (16:44): kaji5785- Club Tattoo in texas- maybe. don't know about the womans line, but we are planning on doing one.

LPfreak4ever15 dit à (16:44): Linkin Park used to be part of the "NU-Metal" or "Rap-metal" genre, will you guys change back to that style in your new album or is that sound long gone?
MarathonMan dit à busta311 (16:45): Do you have any working titles for the new album?

chesterbennington dit à (16:49): lp schnuller- i'd probably imagine we're not going to play mmmm cookies- it wasn't really meant to be anything besides fun! chesterbennington dit à (16:49): lpfreak4ever15- i think there's still some remnants of those genres chesterbennington dit à (16:51): marathonman- for which album? the answer would be no- I don't have any working titles for my record or linkin park's Mshinoda12345 dit à (16:51): Hi Chester, you?re side projects have been amazing so far! Which of your side projects has been the most rewarding and why (Camp Freddy, Solo record, working with Jay Z and Busta, etc.)? chesterbennington dit à (16:52): mshinoda12345- I would probably say that it's all been pretty rewarding. Naaadineee dit à (16:52): What do you do with all the Presents you get at M&Gs? At the M&G in Munich in June a Friend and Me gave you a Pillow on which is written "Linkin Park the best band of the universe". And you still have it !? youre going to do PR this year in europe again? chesterbennington dit à (16:52): I don't know which one is the MOST rewarding though. chesterbennington dit à (16:52): That's a hard question. nillp dit à chesterbennington (16:52): first, thanks for being here! so, did you guys already decided or thought about someone to be the producer of the new album, it's going to be just mike or what? thanks for inspiring each day of my life! take care a lot of love from Brazil. chesterbennington dit à (16:53): Naaadienee- I try to keep as much of the m/g stuff as I can. oxy dit à JWilsonLP (16:54): i thought reanimation was a great albums can we accpect any more remix albums in the future, maybe one for meteora or minutes to midnight? chesterbennington dit à (16:54): I keep a lot of the m/g stuff- I have a kind of fan memorabillia thing so i can go back and look at it all at some point. PinkyLouloulp dit à chazyshay32 (16:55): Chester,I was wondering what is the meaning behind Ve'Cel's drawings? You had something particular in mind? Greetings from Hope and Dora. chesterbennington dit à (16:55): nillp- we have not yet picked a producer for the record, but we're talking to really great people so i'm sure as we have that info we'll put it out PheonixDown dit à (16:55): I want to know what your mentality was between the last few albums, if we take the first two the songs are personal, feelings, and emotions, but MTM was very opinionated and politcal...' how did they come to be so different chesterbennington dit à (16:55): oxy- i don't know about remix albums, it's usually been a spontaneous thing we've done in the past, it might be something for the future, i don't know. chesterbennington dit à (16:56): pinkylouloulp- i don't know Q_Dizzle dit à (16:56): You guys sometimes tend to incorporate anime themes into your videos. Do you personally watch anime? And if so, what is your favorite anime and do any of the other members watch anime? chesterbennington dit à (16:57): phoenixdown- i think we feel confident enough in our intelligence- that at this point we are are knowledgable to be crucial about things we were to naive about before. revolutionman dit à (16:57): Hey chester, have you considered rapping on the new lp album? why should mike have all the fun? also, i love the search with chester site, i got my autographed poster in the mail today, its awesome! thanks =) rawrzar dit à chester_zoe1974 (16:57): Hey Chester! Besides being a concept album, is the new record going to be different than the previous records like MTM was, and are you guys still experimenting with different types of music? I enjoyed MTM as much as I did the other two albums! =) Rayler_Tae dit à chesterbennington (16:58): Do any Fans scare you? Have you ever met an OVER obsessed fan? P.S.--Hope You Have a great year and Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions! chesterbennington dit à (16:58): q-dizzle- I would say that i think in a way all of us like anime if it's done right, but i'm pretty sure joe is the only one to watch on a regular basis. chesterbennington dit à (16:58): revoultionman- you know i don't know it could be fun to rap- i just don't know if i'll be a very good rapper. i'll try it though chesterbennington dit à (16:59): raylertae- yes a lot of fans scare me. it's fun to have people appreciate what you do, it's scary to have people freak out . there have been a couple fans that have scared the crap out of me, one is in prision and one has a restraining order right now. chesterbennington dit à (16:59): so it's not a good idea to get crazy :) chesterbennington dit à (17:00): next one? scottdaniels dit à chesterbennington (17:01): Chester what will be your first Hit Single from your solo Album Dead by Sunrise and Chester you and LP Rocks Forever chesterbennington dit à (17:01): scottdaniels- I don't know yet on first single, there's a couple options. it's kind of too soon to say. sibel dit à (17:01): Hi Chester, I just want to say I really love & appreciate you(&LP), will there be any sideprojects(music/TV) other den DBS ull apart of soon? thnx for hugging me in07:)melbourne LOVES u ThaPoet dit à XxbrokenangelxX (17:02): What inspired the name Ve'cel? Greeting's from London, UK tHeKyAn dit à chesterbennington (17:02): hey chester, is the new LP album gunna be like the old or new style? and is there a estimate on a release date? chesterbennington dit à (17:02): sibel- you're welcome :) there are a couple things i've been asked to do but they've kind of stalled so i don't want to say i'll be part of them. but when that stuff happens i'll let you know chesterbennington dit à (17:03): thapoet- we wanted something that didn't mean anything! chesterbennington dit à (17:03): that sounded like it was important- that name seemed to fit Tiff07 dit à (17:03): Out of all the LP music videos, which one is your favorite thus far? chesterbennington dit à (17:03): thekyan- it's going to be like super new old school :) Victoria_LPF dit à chesterbennington (17:04): I got Revolution Unseen and I read that you were an artist since at the age of six. Being an artist since an early age, I was wondering if you still do a lot of art and if so what inspires you today?-Greetings from Kentucky-Victoria chesterbennington dit à (17:04): tiff07- hmmm....i still have to say breaking the habit is the best video chesterbennington dit à (17:05): victoria-lpf- i'd have to say i'm not as active as i'd like to be as an artist- meaning i don't paint or draw very often. but i do go through moments where i am inspried to do that more than others. i think it's really important that if you are creative chesterbennington dit à (17:05): in any way you should persue that. it's usually a really good way to express yourself. vicel dit à DarthYak (17:05): we love your Ve'cel clothes so much. will you enlarge your store in world wide? will you open up other stores in other foreign countries? chesterbennington dit à (17:05): even if you aren't that good at it, and you just like it it doesn't really matter. wayn0 dit à (17:05): You played MSG in NYC for the first time last year!! It was an amazing show! You guys expressed some emotions that night, can you tell us again how amazing it was for you?- #1 NY fan~ Waiting4thesun dit à (17:05): Hi chester! If you were chatting with your favourite artist ever what would you ask him?? The job that you?re doing with mfr is really amazing? thanx for everything ? chesterbennington dit à (17:06): vicel- we are starting to get some notice internationally, so hopefully we'll be growing that as time goes on. and we have a brand new club tattoo opening in las vegas in march and that should really help us grow. Xina dit à (17:07): How will the lyrics on your solo CD differ from your lyrical contributions in Linkin Park? Do you approach your solo songs differently? Also, thank you for making amazing music!! chesterbennington dit à (17:07): wayn0- it was pretty amazing at MSG- growing up MSG was kind of like if you could play there, you knew it was important. it was a very big deal for us, and we were excited to put that show in that place. our production was the best we ever had, and jay-z ZipFonMolko dit à (17:07): Hey, Chester! We already know, that upcoming album is going to be conceptual. Mike also had hamed some artists, who have inspired him, one of them - Pink Floyd - The Wall. Have you, or any band member though about making conceptual movie? xTHEAx dit à (17:07): Hi Chester, why do you always drink orange juice during the shows? Does it help your voice somehow? And my bestfriend Vean says hi ^^ chesterbennington dit à (17:07): came and played with us- probably in the top 5 in terms of best shows for us. chesterbennington dit à (17:08): waiting4thesun- when i meet people i admire i kind of clam up, i turn into a guy that doesn't say much. when i met robert smith i kind of got too excited to ask him anything important. zuzu dit à (17:08): hey chaz i big fan of u and LP...like everyone here. i would like to ask u what would u like to be, if u werent be in LP? what kind of job?anyway thanks for great show in czech republic :) greeting from slovakia chesterbennington dit à (17:09): xina- yeah i do approach the songs differently- mainly because i do most of the writing. so that's probably the main difference is that i am kind of the sole director of the songs so to speak. whereas in linkin park there's a bunch of cooks in that kitch chesterbennington dit à (17:09): kitchen chesterbennington dit à (17:10): zuzu- i don't know, if i wasn't in linkin park i probably would have eventually gone back to school to do something, and eventually would have been a teacher of some sort. i think i'd be a good teacher. ashleycblpfan dit à Aaron94 (17:11): what is the funniest thing that happened to you guys while recording? AliceXD dit à IBLong (17:11): Hi Chester. How does it feel to know your songs have helped people through rough times in their lives? And my friend Tymoor says Hi :) chesterbennington dit à (17:11): xtheax- i don't drink orange juice during shows. 01joe10 dit à (17:11): Hey Chester, What do you think is your favorite/best/ Most rewarding thing about playing with Linkin park, and why? THanks chesterbennington dit à (17:12): i've never drank orange juice during shows. i usually drink water and i do keep a couple things up there on stage. i do drink gatorade, which is usually colored orange so maybe that's what you are thinking of. usually at a show i'll drink about half chesterbennington dit à (17:12): a red bull chesterbennington dit à (17:12): never oj though chesterbennington dit à (17:12): sheleycblpfan- don gilmore would light his farts on fire. that was pretty funny. chesterbennington dit à (17:13): zipfonmolk- yes - we've thought about making a conceptual movie- those are expensive Brooke_MikeShinoda dit à chesterbennington (17:14): Hey Chester !! I'm Brooke from FRG,Illinois. Is the next album going to be more instrumental ? More Mellow ? More Hard-rock?(Hard-rock is my favorite) Thanks !! Love you all Linkin Park !! Btw- thanks for getting me through the hardest times in my life:) chesterbennington dit à (17:14): alicexd- that is the most rewarding part of what we do, when we hear people say to us that our music has helped them in some way. it doesn't get much better than that. it's pretty awesome. br0wnst3r dit à (17:14): what is the most unique and/or challenging aspect of writing for a concept album? BearSnugsFox dit à (17:15): Can you tell us something about your experience with acting in Crank 2 and your enconuter with Jason Statham? Love from Vietnam. chesterbennington dit à (17:15): 01joe10- pretty much everything is rewarding, every part of what we do kicks some ass. we get to do what we love to do for a living, and what we do well, you know it's kind of like being a rock star is the coolest job you can have! you can make other chesterbennington dit à (17:15): people who have really cool jobs wish they were rock stars! chesterbennington dit à (17:16): brooke- the answer to your question, is yes. chesterbennington dit à (17:16): br0wnst3r- probably the concept! chesterbennington dit à (17:16): writing about one thing is pretty hard to do chesterbennington dit à (17:16): or writing about all the different aspects is hard to do. chesterbennington dit à (17:17): in doing something like a concept record, it can take years to make. it may not be the next thing we come out with. carol_te_despreza dit à kementari (17:17): chester, how did the idea for you to be in the movie crank came up? ChazzyChazzFan dit à (17:18): Hey Chester I just wanna say thank you for all you guys do I am truly a big fan and I have the tatt to prove it lol :)! What is the most embarassing thing to happen to you on stage?love you lots ;*:-* thanks for getting me through some tough times! chesterbennington dit à (17:18): bearsungsfox- i would say that i have had a lot of fun doing those movies. my parts are really small and insignificant but have been been really fun. jason is super fun and takes it very seriously. chesterbennington dit à (17:18): he was a lot of fun to be around and really good at what he does. Chesterfan dit à (17:18): Chaz, will your back injury result in more mic stand songs? chesterbennington dit à (17:19): carol-to-despreza- the idea came up because they were shooting in the original movie, the opening scene where he wakes up in that loft and burns out in the car- that was in the building i lived in. somehow the directors found out i was living there and chesterbennington dit à (17:20): got me through management and asked if i would be interested in doing a small part. for the next one they contacted me personally and said they'd think it was fun to have me in it too. pretty easy actually! chesterbennington dit à (17:20): i feel bad for actors that spend their entire lives trying to get an audition. DarkFeenux12 dit à (17:20): Hey Chester, really enjoyed you guys at Edgefest this summer! awesome MnG too (first in line). So what would you say youre favourite part of being in a studio is? :) danielpsoad09 dit à (17:21): Linkin Park recorded 17 songs for Minutes to Midnight, and you've released 13 of them. Are you planning to release the rest anytime soon ? I hope you can play in Chile for your next tour. Cheers ! chesterbennington dit à (17:21): darkfeenux12- i don't know it's kind of like putting a puzzle together, we've learned to be more relaxed with the process, but the best part is when you are finally finished and you see what you have put together, and you can hear it for the first time chesterbennington dit à (17:21): in a completed state. it's pretty rewarding. chesterbennington dit à (17:21): daniellpsoad09- i have no idea re: releasing more of the m2m songs. Felipeintheend dit à Adam (17:22): Chester, we, fans who work at fansites, love to work for the band, what do you think of fansites? Do you visit any of them?

Milton Keynes rocked!, well worth getting squashed! chesterbennington dit à (17:23): chesterfan- my back injury will basically ...i'm going to have to figure some things out. i get back spasms sometimes just from singing. so i'm not sure if i'll be jumping off or anything anytime soon. you are going to have to deal with me walking/stand chesterbennington dit à (17:23): around more. i am turning into an old man.

By the way the show in Athens ROCKED!!!!! hiddentalentz dit à (17:26): Chester, back when you were on Loveline in April, Bennoda Mountain was mentioned. Any new thoughts on that? chesterbennington dit à (17:26): Felipeintheend- Every once in a while i go look at the fansites. i think it's cool, but it bothers me when they are gossipy and not always accurate. chesterbennington dit à (17:26): But good fansites are great:) chesterbennington dit à (17:27): i don't like when in some chatrooms of some sites there's always someone being a hater though, that bothers me. ipek dit à chesterbennington (17:27): Hey Chester :) We know from the interviews that you will be debuting your album Dead by Sunrise in 2009. Will this album effect the publishing date of upcoming Linkin Park album? If not, will we be able to listen to the new Linkin Park album in autmn? JoeyDC dit à (17:28): I think you are one of the most sincere and down-to-earth musicians I have ever seen - what's your secret of remaining so normal although being so famous and successful? chesterbennington dit à (17:28): Guerrero- It's a very gratifying experience. I am sure there are more gratifying experience, but that's pretty amazing when people show up to watch you play your music. There are a lot of choices out there.

I wondering if you can share with us a particular amazing moment for you on stage in 2008..? chesterbennington dit à (17:32): lpfaint43- would i ask a lpu member for help on a record. probably not. i probably wouldn't go to a fan and ask what they think about something new or if they liked or disliked something before it was done.

MirellaM dit à (17:35): HAve you thought of doing some acting in the future? chesterbennington dit à (17:35): ms-luv- don't know about a dvd like that, it's possible though. i usually find that tying to predict the future is a bad idea though. outlawserenade dit à (17:36): burningdaylight asked me to ask this: do you have a larger role in crank 2 other than the cameo in the previews. Thank ye. Paranoy dit à (17:36): I know there are no bad LP songs :D, but what would you say is the "worst" or "most annoying" song you ever did?

Just out of curiosity, does that song mean anything special to you or to any of the other band members? chesterbennington dit à (17:38): Runaway and Hit the Floor chesterbennington dit à (17:39): the best of the worst :) RockerPrince dit à Adam (17:39): hello Chester! I'm Alex from Brazil. so... do you think your voice has improved over the years? do you feel safer to scream throughout the concerts now? are we'll have more songs with screams such as 'given up'? peace :) chesterbennington dit à (17:39): q-dizzle- NUMB- well all the songs have special meaning to us, every song has special meaning to us, especially me and mike on the lyrics since we're writing them. chesterbennington dit à (17:40): rockerprince- i scream a lot! haha. i scream a LOT. there's more screaming to come. chesterbennington dit à (17:40): as far as my voice improving, i think it's gotten better the older i've gotten.
