Linkin Park are a very talented band with a really big bond that keeps them together. They have thier own website (LPU), the pankake dvd, and Projekt Rev. And what has happened? One person decides to create a solo album and now theres a BIG rumor that it's over. I mean just because Mike made a solo album does not mean that they should break up. They have given people hope in thier lives and they have millions of people that really care about them. If they break up because of one solo album, it might be they biggest mistake ever to happen. We all know that and you know it too(you know who you are) Just consider this, and I don't care if this gets on the news, just so my point is out and your point is out too. please, post your opinions here so that some how this can get out. I mean, what will happen if they do split up? :unsure:

They are not goin to split up!!!!

i'm excited for the solo, and the new album (started nov 2k4, pending release)

yeah so am i

I didn't say i wasn't excited about the new album. I'm really excited and I wish Mike the best of luck. I just hope that nothing bad happens

i promise you they won't have a single bump... Chester's been doing it as WELL as mike and... technically Phoenix... it'll be fine...(that is the first time i've been quoted... one way or another)

I used to be in a very depressed mood every time I read about Mike's solo album news..I just couldn't imagined him doing something like this and abondoning LP...

But later, I came to realise how childish it is after reading some opinion given by other fans who seem to take the news from the positive side. I mean think about it..

They are not splitting. All they did is, come out of their little box and do something that they really enjoy.. think about it as them releasing what they want from their system.. and when it's all out.. they will eventually come back around and produce another album for us.. hopefully.. now that everything was out, it's going to be even better than HT or Meteora or both put together

Who knows*shrugs*

^exactly :)

its totally not the end of LP. with mike going solo, its actually good, reaching to new hights, improving themselves. if the members branch of to do there own thing it only means better things to come of them as a group. a musician will never improve if they don't practice solo, but since theyre in the actual music buisness, just think of mikes solo project as a solo practice with way more benefits. think of how his experience will improve LP. (not that they need improving) :-P
~whoa that was wierd, i have my pc music player on random, and it switched from by myself by LP to how far by martina mcbride! creepy! *changes to nuther LP song* mmm "Numb"! :thumbsup: :guitar:

DON'T FRET! it makes me nervous when others do...

PETER LOEFFLER IS THINKING OF PRODUCING HIS OWN SOLO ACOUSTIC ALBUM AND COMING STRIGHT BACK TO CHEVELLE...SO IT'S NOT LIKE THIS IS A NEW THING TO EVERYONE IN A BAND...PEOPLE JUST NEED TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES IN NEW WAYS THAT THEY PROBABLY COULDN'T DO WITH OTHER CREATIVE MINDS GIVING THEM IDEAS AND SUCH...THEY JUST WANT SOMETHING RAW THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO SHARE CREDIT ON...MORE POWER TO YOU, MIKE,CHESTER, AND PETER!

i wish lp and mike the best of luck
