Linkin Park… Even if you don’t know each album by heart, I’m sure that you already heard about them. But if I’m wrong, I’ll introduce theme briefly: It’s an American band of neo-metal from California. They formed in 1996 ( the year of my birth… And I don’t believe in coincidence!) and they are famous internationally since that time.
Linkin Park… this is the symbol of my teenage years, like many young people. So when I heard about the suicide of the band singer, I was touched… Yes, for those who didn’t know, the singer of Linkin Park, Chester Bennington took his life on 20th of july 2017.
But there is a reason I speak about this tragedy now! Indeed, last weekend, the 28/10, a lot of neo-metal artists were meeting in the Hollywood Bowl of Los Angeles for a concert in tribute to Chester Bennington. There was Linkin Park, Blink 182, Sum 41, Korn, No Doubt, System of a Down, Yellow card, and others. All together they played famous songs from the Californian band, during 3 hours!
Thanks to that, Linkin Park has won money that will be donated to an association which helps depressed people: “One More Light Fund”. This is a beautiful tribute to Chester Bennington…
