BOBBY HUNDREDS ABOUT "LIVING THINGS" AND HIS TIME WITH LP

Bobby Hundreds from "The Hundreds", friend of Mike Shinoda, was in studio with Linkin Park yesterday.
He got a chance to listen to the new album "Living Things", and says " It’s by far the band’s best, most comprehensive work, surprisingly jumpstarting with LP’s familiar, heavy rap-n-roll sound of yesteryear."

More about what he had to say and what he see HERE.

We all hate Mondays....
But don't forget! Today is a SPECIAL Monday! 


Let's make #HappyLinkinParkMonday #BurnItDown Worldwide trend on Twitter! :D

SURPRISE LPU CHAT WITH MIKE SHINODA AND CHAT WITH POOCH

Here a short summary of the two LPU chat from Saturday, 14 April 2012.

Surprise LPU chat with Mike Shinoda:

- No informations about Special Editions / Delux Editions for the new album yet.

- he talked a bit about "The Raid: Redemption" and he asked how people liked the movie and the songs and he also said that the movie will, eventually, be released on DVD so people who weren’t able to see it can anyways, or we should just buy the soundtrack.

- He said that tour dates will be announced on Monday as well. 

- Mike also said that he loved how excited everyone is about the album, the puzzle, and the game. He said he came up with the idea of the puzzle and tried to play it but didn’t make it far and gave up...

- He also said that the SPIN article is pretty on-point about the new album and that if you haven’t read it yet, you should.

- Mike also said before he left the chat:

 “MONDAY IS THE DAY”

Check out www.mikeshinoda.com for more news about "Burn It Down" and the new album!

And don't forget: Mike is still trolling (making jokes) on Twitter and so on ;) 

LPU Chat with POOCH:

Linkin Park’s front of house sound engineer, Pooch, was in the LPU chat and told us a lot of infos:

- He's been working for Linkin Park for 6 years now.

- He said Linkin Park will start rehearsing soon, they generally rehearse 3 weeks before tour.

- After Europe, LP go back to the US for plenty of dates, they're working all this year until 2013

- hasn't heard any of the new Linkin Park songs, but he's looking forward to it.

- In August, LP are going to change their set lists, and probably perform more new live songs.

- How did Pooch meet LP? He said he was mixing for Limp Bizkit for the Summer Sanitarium tour, and LP was on this tour, when the guys heard Pooch mixing they had kept him in mind then when they were looking for a new FOH engineer the management hired him.

- About every 2 months he releases a new blog post( Pooch's Corner ) 

- He has worked with Van Halen, when he heard LP were going back on tour he decided to come back to them

- He studied at Berkeley College of Music in Boston, he studied bass guitar

- Favorite Waves plugin: C6

- Hardest song to mix live: A lot of songs on the "A Thousand Suns" record

- Favorite song to mix: songs from Hybrid Theory and Meteora, Papercut is one of his favorites.

- Brad wars headphones because he's protecting his hearing, he has very sensitive ears. The rest of the guys have inner-ear headphones.

- DSP sound different because: Basically ever DSP is a new experience, mainly because the environment they play in is different wherever they play. That’s why each DSP is unique and have their own sound. It’s an accurate  representation of what it was like that day. In his opinion he said it shouldn’t sound the same, sometimes it depends on how’s feeling that day like for example he might feel the guitars need to be louder, etc.

- He doesn't get bored of LP's performances, because it's different each time.

- The perfect band:  every band he’s worked for has their own twist, the past few years they’ve been working for Slash and Myles Kennedy. He loves working with Linkin Park though, they’re so nice and treat him well, and because of that he turns down other gigs.

- The first concert that he ever went to is the Beach Boys, he was a kid, he went and saw them in Sacramento. His parents took them there. The concert that changed his life was Van Halen in ’94 that made him say “that’s what I want to do mix rock and roll bands!”

- He said he likes to travel, he loves cruises. In his free time he loves traveling.

- There are some summits coming up and he hopes there will be one in Australia

- You can meet him at the concerts, if he he has time he’d love to talk to you

-  After shows the crew eats lots of pizza before the show they have catering

-  There are times where Pooch doesn’t get a finalized set lists till 5 minutes before the show

- He doesn’t know why Chester is wearing glasses, probably because he can’t see like him.

- How to mix a certain song, he says he tries to make it as true as the song sounds on the record, as that's what the band have worked on to get

-  Advice for sound engineers: Start working at a music venue near you, or work at a local sound company that provides sound gear, this will provide you knowledge before you get to mix anything, he said it’s a long road and he’s extremely lucky to get the work that he gets to do.

-  First equipment brought Urei 1176

- He doesn’t like PCs, he has a Mac
