Mike back on MTV. It all comes full circle.

[@jovan5472]

i see you everywhere, hardcore lp fan!

[@BreadLoafPlayz]

THANKS LINKIN PARK, FOR EVERYTHING

[@mikolajpaluch4927]

Chester Would Be Proud ❤️

[@derekrose3328]

Here here! 🙌🏼❤️‍🩹🤝

[@CiofinhoHD]

Mike is such an underrated legend

[@capt_bry]

i wouldn't say he's underrated. he's one of the main driving forces for LPs success.

[@ccclaw13]

​@@capt_bry I think he means bc Mike isn't always chasing the spotlight trying to stay relevant and saying stupid things for drama like someone like Cory Taylor

[@parakum4030]

​@@ccclaw13 Definitely 🤘😎👍

[@nickd.9882]

Shinoda's the GOAT

[@moonshelter3448]

Oh my god here we are again. Just give him some more time. I thought he is underrated until I understood he's pretty humble himself. He's a music god he's fucking wunderkind he's a living legend my god to me there's no one who can be compared to him. And besides all those regalia he's such a handsome man with the great sense of humor and he's so charismatic and I love him performing and even just talking to people. You have to decide who's he for you. And let the history cook.❤

[@EmarketingRobots]

I love how Mike referenced "Linkin Logs" without saying it...🤣

[@travisstewart8655]

I still believe Mike is what held the band together through the years, true professional!

[@MuditVerma]

The Slipknot story is wild. Incredible. 🤘🏽

[@mashort07]

The Slipknot story is fucking awesome, and I’m sure they were just as appreciative of Linkin Park as the crowd. THAT is how you make new fans.

[@Vegitobluuuuu]

I wanna see that show is it recorded?

[@ivaerz4977]

It must be on KZbin for sure

[@jessicapierce3027]

​@lp4everable me too. We need to find this footage. What festival is he taking about?

[@jariemonah]

MTV, you should be glad Mike graced you with his presence after you did a half ass tribute for Chester by cutting off his performance at the VMAs one month after he died.

[@EyequeenCasskulla]

We need more artists like this, so humble, and down to earth, doing amazing things for ppl. 🖤🤍🖤🤍

[@YesNo-tu6jh]

Love Linkin Park music and the members everyone seems so great🤘🔥

[@RockyRxx]

I can hear Mike speak all day, he is such articulate and narrates a story so amazingly. He is a legend

[@user-qx8lp6td4j]

Mike shinoda is the most underrated musician of all time.

[@sumirsookdeo9443]

Greatest band to grace us in the 21st century. God bless Chester's soul. Meteora album is god tier.

[@japaneseempress]

Mike, thank you for the memories and music that I identified with and defined my 20's and 30's. Would love an opportunity to purchase a plaque or anything memorable for Reanimation, my favorite album of all time. Much love and respect. Thank you so much.

[@spittingame4241]

Out of all the bands I have heard in my almost 40 years of life, Linkin Park is the band I can relate to the most 👍🏿💯🔥

[@MrRommaway]

Aaaaaaw. That slipknot story was worthy of a movie or something. Pls someone anwer me. What was that festival? Any youtube vids?

[@joyjoyz778]

There is only an audio of the whole set here kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGfLnXRogbh_qrM

[@AntonyLP]

@@joyjoyz778 Thank you, dude

[@michaeldicostanzo3652]

I really hope they release something like this for minutes to midnight

[@foxtrotyt8898]

my dude mike is such an epic person

[@anota.v687]

LP Forever.... Thank you guys so much!!!

[@tylerdurden1221]

Seeing this on MTV News is special

[@KyloRen4238]

Happy 20 anniversary Meteora. Linkin Park 4ever. 💛💙

[@CragusMaximus19]

Absolute legend. This band is as important to people of my generation (I'm 32 this year) as my parents' generation with Elvis and Michael Jackson etc, the generation above me with Queen, and Metallica etc. Shame these youngsters missed out on proper music! Let's hope they discover it.

[@ejicon3099]

MTV News. Thank you for covering Meteora20. You're still my favorite music video channel.

[@tonyrodriguez2943]

Linkin Park Rules 🎸🥁🎤🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@chrishunter7675]

I'm sure when they covered for Slipknot at Rock I'm Park, it was during the Hybrid Theory era

[@VladShpiro]

I want footage of those Deftones and Nine Inch Nails covers from the Slipknot concert!

[@CookieJar87]

Just search for "Linkin Park - My Own Summer" There's plenty of footage. The best version of "Wish" is from Rock am Ring 2004

[@emilianocruz11]

Thank you Mike for amazing music with Linkin park and Chester together ❤️

Finally. MTV and good music 🎉

[@fiiiig]

I was in color guard in high school when this album came out. The same year cassette tapes were starting to be removed from record stores. Pre iPhone! Time flys!

[@masterofchaos2]

Meteora one of my favorite albums

[@user-yp8cg1dh9b]

Mike Shinoda 👏❤️❤️

[@DanteBellin]

I wish there was another surround mix. The Reanimation DVD-A is my favorit 5.1 album.

[@HybridDrummer7]

The best! Linkin Park for life!!!!

[@jfklmk13447]

Love Mike & LP !

[@teresaweber5194]

Thanks Mike for all you doiss Linkin Park alot and Chester Bennington is my idol forever stay safe God Bless you all

Love linkin park so much!!!! They Are My favorit band ❤❤❤ All the Best Camilla from denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰

[@makeyourself1988]

I love this band and I have done since Hybrid Theory dropped.

[@bigtakeshi]

I wish Chester was still with us! I'd love to see a 20 year Meteora tour playing the whole album! The one guy who I think could replace him on tour Chino, but he can't do it!

[@hussienalsafi1149]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@suprotiksom4194]

❤❤❤

[@startervisions]

This album got me into "Nu Metal" I was aware of Korn and Slipknot...but the Linkin Park videos with DJ sounds and CGI visuals...and rapping with singing oh dude I was hooked

[@posthardcoresinger]

If these guys ever decide to do some fun shows with a stand in for Chester (yea I know you can't truly replace him)... they should grab Nate from Finch, they brought him on stage in the past and he has probably the most similar vocal timbre to Chester you're gonna find and the best scream in the biz.

[@HoChiMints2007]

He hasn't aged since 2010, what a vampire

[@user-yi7fy3lj1n]

I bought the cd .meteors twice perfect

[@user-yi7fy3lj1n]

Meteors

[@user-yi7fy3lj1n]

Spell check

[@user-yi7fy3lj1n]

Meteora

[@user-yi7fy3lj1n]

Put those words in the light of God for veracity

[@tonytaverna3128]

Thanks Linkin Park

[@wenasnoches215]

\\m// [LINKIN PARK] \\m// meteora 20th anniversary box set deluxe oooooooooooo yeah.

[@verac.4497]

❤❤❤❤❤🌹

[@hunterotails2015]

What was the festival where they covered for Slipknot and when was it?

[@nzvplc]

someone else said rock im park

[@gagypetkovic]

@@nzvplc No,they perform in Rock Im Park in 2001 because Slipknot canceled show,and Mike talk about Meteora era which is in 2003,2004

[@DJThugg]

💚💚💚👑💚💚💚

[@ToeTag9899]

MTV news still exist holy shit.

[@nickd.9882]

The idea of working on new music then going to perform the current music, only to return to making the new music again is the DREAM. P.S. Breaking The Habit, Nobody's Listening, and Session are what made me a LP fan.

[@BuckeyeFan0792]

Linkin Park will always hold a special place for me. They got me into a heavier style of music (ultimately I’m a metal head 20+ years later). Meteora was a groundbreaking album and still to this day one that I listen to. Really those first 2 records were just ridiculous…

[@Ryan-qb5wd]

Where can I watch that concert that LP covered for Slipknot? If even possible.

[@Me_di]

Mike and you guys do somth with arcane 2. Its your perfect opportunity to show light on chesters problems. Its just 2 perfect

[@4thNyt]

20 year old Album, a song LOST for 20 years, still making major headlines after 20 years Levels 🔥🔥

[@rdqPL]

Speaking of last memory I think Mike is refering to 2001 show which is not a Meteora Tour. The situation was in 2001.06.02 Nürnberg, Bayern. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@gagypetkovic]

I think he say that tour is in the Usa not in Europe,in Rock Am Park 2001 Linkin Park replace Slipknot because they canceled show

[@LautaroGalanCid]

Anyone knows which show they played for slipknot’s spot?

[@evlclwn4806]

chester bennington+mike shinoda =chike bennoda

[@MaxBraver555]

I never knew such story happened like they performed on behalf of Slipknot, despite both being in some sort of same genre, their audience are very different and may not get along very well.

[@KeithCasey973]

That Linkin Park and Slipknot story is WILD

[@emwhaibee]

The Mullet Challenge 🤣 Covering for Slipknot' set 😳😲😮 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@AyushMathurworld]

Where can i see that Cover up LP did for Slipknot?

[@rohit-ny2dz]

I think they played Wish by NIN and My own summer by Deftons for sure

[@methman9212]

​​@Rohit he meant The show

[@AyushMathurworld]

@@rohit-ny2dz Yeah. Wish they played at Rock am Ring 04 was fabulous but i guess the show mike referring was not that.

[@AyushMathurworld]

@@methman9212 Correct. Is that show included in the new Meteora album?

[@methman9212]

@Ayush Mathur do you know which love show it is austin or nottingham

[@septifladeo9757]

aku ingin pria ini hidup selamanya

[@LPreplicant]

Hello. Applaying for reflicant.

[@GeneralGrizzy]

Collision course anniversary soon? 👀

[@sadiekincaid5310]

@GeneralGrizzy the 20th anniversary of Collision Course is in late 2024 but I don't know if they will do anything for it.

[@lpenrike]

mtv is still a thing?

[@septifladeo9757]

i'm loving linkin park, mike i love you, will you be my husband 🤣🤣

[@ellapavlova000]

Our Linkin Park ❤️! Always ❤! From Ukraine 🇺🇦❤️🇺🇲🤘

[@I-speak-U-shut-it]

I don't get it. Is Mike Shinoda Mexican?

[@MuditVerma]

Nope, he's Hapa.

[@tonigrant6994]

He's half white half Japanese

[@lizspirit8847]

He's an American of Japanese descent
