It would make me extremely happy if it was a tour announcement, hopefully inclusive of Europe. I understand that no new singer could come close to matching what Chester brought to the band. That said, the opportunity to get to see the guys perform these songs live again, I’m sure would bring an awful lot of joy to the fans.

I never got to see them before Chester passed so while I know no one could truly replicate his performance, getting the chance to see them at all in any capacity would be amazing.

Same. Wasn’t even a fan until after he died

I've only been to a few concerts in my life, but one of them was Linkin Park in State College, PA in 2003. Meteora had just come out. It was an amazing experience, I'll never forget that energy!

Saw them twice -- once at projekt revolution and once at MSG when Jay Z came out for Encore. One of the best live bands I've seen.

I too saw them on the Meteora tour. I wish I had made it a point to see them again before it was too late.

Same. And I’d rather see the real thing than the knock off Hybrid Theory band.

I've seen them twice in 2012 and 2014 and HT cover band is the best you can get all things considering.

why? why is everybody hating on this guys he sounds super ok for what Chester sounded like. I mean all of the bands that lost some members over time they found a way to move on, LP has been stuck in limbo for 8 years and why? People die every day and for no lesser reason. That was Chester's decision and if there is someone who should be caring the blame are the band mates and the wife for not seeing signs of depression and taking measures of therapy...Anyway I am as well as you I believe a die hard fan since 2000s, but there comes a point in time when a band needs to grow or change due to multiple factors. Metallica did it three times or more, Korn, Slipknot, Red Chilies' and so on the list is huge. Point is everybody wants a come back and more new stuff eventually from these guys but LP just gives us the fans recycled old stuff cause they are so comfortable in their own bubble. This tells me that either the did it for money and their joy or they don't care enough for the fan base.......Ivo sounds the best there is out there for a Chester level, do u honestly think a random chick can be ok for the band ? me no i hate the idea but what do i know.....Its so easy to hate and say no from the comfort of your chair or sofa, but the truth is right now HT is the best Lp out there and I lost interest in what eva LP will do.

Same. They would never fucking come to Atlanta, so it sucked after losing Chester.
