Linkin Park concert chronology

A Thousand Suns World Tour was the worldwide sixth concert tour by American rock band Linkin Park. The tour supported the band's fourth studio album A Thousand Suns . The tour ranked 35th in Pollstar's "Top 50 Worldwide Tour (Mid-Year)", earning over 20 million dollars. [1]

Contents

Background

Linkin Park announced their upcoming world tour while doing press for their latest LP, A Thousand Suns. Vocalist Chester Bennington stated: "At this point we're writing such great music that I almost want to go do 50 shows around the world and then get right back into making another record. Once the ball starts rolling, it's all I want. It's like a drug." [2]

During an interview with Streetdate Radio, Bennington expressed how odd it felt to begin the tour in South America, even though they are not well known in that region. He further stated that although Linkin Park sell more records in North America, they are more "well known" in other territories. As a band, it did not feel odd to begin in these territories first. During the same interview, he announced the band will play in North America beginning in January 2011. [3]

Cancellations

Lead singer, Chester Bennington, fell ill cancelling three shows and rescheduling two from the North American leg of the tour. Originally, Bennington played a few shows not feeling well; doctors then advised him to stop playing, or the effects could have worsened.. Doctors tested Bennington for different illnesses, including H1N1. While in the process for testing for H1N1, complications arose, worsening his state. Eventually it emerged that he did not have the H1N1 virus, but a similar virus. However, Linkin Park were caused to cancel five shows due to this illness. Two of the five cancellations from the tour were able to be rescheduled, in Houston and Dallas. [44] Uncasville and Cincinnati were later compensated during the 2012 Honda Civic Tour.

During Linkin Park's Asia tour, Bennington injured his shoulder and doctors advised him to undergo surgery, canceling the band's final show in Pensacola Beach, Florida for the tour and thus ending tour. [43]
