Linkin Park donates proceeds from six shows to charity

Linkin Park has decided to donate the proceeds from six shows on their current Meteora world tour to six different charities. Although not all the dates or charities have been decided yet, guitarist Brad Delson explained that the band just wants to give something back. "Each of the guys will choose a charity, or charities, to give the money to. I actually work with UCLA, doing scholarships for inner city kids that wouldn't be able to pay to go to school. And I went to UCLA, so that's something that's close to my heart. It's just amazing to be in a position where we can work with the community and give back."

The next single from Linkin Park's platinum-plus second album, Meteora, is called "Lying From You."

The band's North American tour, which also features P.O.D., Hoobastank, and Story Of The Year, pulls into the Palace Of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Michigan, tonight, and the Allstate Arena right here in Rosemont, Illinois, on Thursday.
