Linkin Park Live @ Staples Center

You know how it is...through friends of friends of friends we got some amazing tickets and VIP access to the Linkin Park show the other night in Los Angeles.

I've never been to the Staples Center so it was a really great way to see the ins and outs of such an amazing building. 

Likewise, I also was never at a Linkin Park concert so the two together were just great.

The music was very good and the lighting was outstanding.  I had the pleasure of meeting a few of the band members previously and they are all really humble and down to earth. 

The drummer of Linkin Park played a very amazing solo which I thought was world class. 

The photos above are all from the concert.  We had great seats, to the right of the stage and just about 10 meters back from the stage...perfect!

The VIP access allowed us to see such stars as Fergi (spelling?) and Paris Hilton to name a few!  I'm not one to throw out names or be awe struck by famous people but it was cool - I'm definitely not the type to start taking pictures for the paparazzi though!

From what I understood, it was a very good show.  They played a good amount of older songs, songs that LA grew to know because this city is home to Linkin Park.

Good times...thanks to Ben & Rob!
