Linkin Park Tonight in Milan: the concert scaletta
It is the night of the Linkin Park in Milan. Everything is ready for theppdrome La Maura For the show that tonight will see the band of “In the End” pass through the Lombard capital with theThe only Italian date of the “From Zero World Tour”. I am 80 thousand spectators expected in the concert areaannounced last November, to sing the hits of the US group present in the lineup at the top of the lift: the tickets went sold out within a month, as proof of the affection that after all these years the fans continue to feed against the group, which has regenerated after the premature death of Chester Bennington.
It was May 2017 when the Linkin Park sent their latest album in stores, “One More Light”. Bennington would disappear two months later: his body was found lifeless in his residence in Palos Verde Summers in California and the exams revealed that he was suicide. Only after seven years the Linkin Park decided to carry on their history, enlisting a new singer, Emily ArmstrongLosangeline, 38, with “A voice from Janis Joplin”, in the past frontwoman of the band Dead Sara, with whom over the years he has conquered fans like Courtney Love (wanted the Armstrong as a guest on his 2010 album, “Nobody’s Daughter”) and Dave Grohl (“Le Dead Sara should be the next largest band in the world”, said the frontman of the Foo. Fighters).
The Initial controversies related to the past, not exactly clear, by Emily Armstrong (From the links with the Church of Scientology – source of disputes in many countries worldwide, accused of abuses on minors, trafficking in human beings and retaliation – to its proximity to the actor Danny Masterson, sentenced last year to thirty years of imprisonment for having raped two women in the 90s), were immediately swept away by music. THEThe single “The Emptine Machine” one week after its release, in September, touched the podium of the weekly ranking of the best -selling singles in the United Kingdom and conquered the summit of the ranking of the rock songs most played in the USA.
The rest of the album “from Zero” did the rest, from which Mike Shinoda and companions will fish in Milan tonight many of the songs present in ladder: “Before the Linkin Park the name of our first band was Xero. The title of the album refers to both this humble start and to the journey we are undertaking. It was made with a profound appreciation for our new and historic bandmates, for our friends, for our family and for our fans. We are proud of what the Linkin Park have become over the years and we are enthusiastic about the journey.” Linkin Park about the title of the disc. And Shinoda, speaking of the new singer, added: “Chester had such a particular, incredible voice and extension. We wondered what to do later. It is obvious that you cannot simply take any to sing with us, it would not be able to do even half of things”.
The tour linked to “From The Zero”, which started last April by Austin, Texas, is proving to be a triumph, as evidenced by the many videos published on the net by the fans.
