Linkin Park Live Guide - List Of All Canceled Shows
Below you will find a list of all the shows that Linkin Park has ever had to cancel. Listed also are the reasons why.
2000
Show:
15.09.2000 Saint Petersburg, FL, Jannus Landing, Kottonmouth Kings 'Riding High' Tour
Reason:
A band member had family issues come up. It is not known which band member it was. The band did not make the show up.
2001
Show:
08.09.2001 Camden, NJ, Tweeter Center at the Waterfront, Reading USA
Reason:
According to the festival organizers, they didn't have enough time to bolster the show's roster.
Show:
09.09.2001 Stockholm, Sweden, Solnahallen, European Headline Tour
Reason:
Canceled for an unknown reason. I actually don't think that this date was ever on the Linkin Park tour schedule. I got this date from Omar and Sebastian's LP Live Guide. They said it was going to be a tour date but it was canceled because LP was attending the VMAs that night. Funny, because the VMAs were a few nights before. I have no earthly idea about this show.
Show:
11.09.2001 Hamburg, Germany, Grosse Freiheit, European Headline Tour
Reason:
Canceled because of the September 11th terrorist attacks in the United States. The band did not make the show up.
2003
Show:
08.04.2003 Rochester, NY, Blue Cross Arena, Projekt Revolution Tour
Reason:
Canceled because of a snowstorm. The band made the show up on the Summer Sanitarium Tour.
Show:
11.04.2003 Evansville, IN, Robert's Stadium, Projekt Revolution Tour
Reason:
Canceled due to an infected pharynx in Chester's throat. The band did not make the show up.
Shows:
28.04.2003 Council Bluffs, IA, Mid-America Center, Projekt Revolution Tour
29.04.2003 Valley Center, KS, Kansas Coliseum, Projekt Revolution Tour
30.04.2003 North Little Rock, AR, Alltell Arena, Projekt Revolution Tour

21.06.2003 Barcelona, Spain, Estadi Olímpic de Barcelona, Doctor Music Day, European Tour
22.06.2003 Madrid, Spain, Estadio La Peineta, European Tour
Reason:
Chester developed severe abdominal and back pains and had to have surgery. This also caused the band to delay the video shoot for 'Numb'. The band went back and played two of the Projekt Revolution dates on the Summer Sanitarium Tour. North Little Rock was not made up. The band then went and played over half of the European dates again later in the year. Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Pinkpop, Copenhagen, Hultsfred, Oslo, and Barcelona were not made up. Berlin, Prague, Lisboa, Madrid and Paris were.
2004
Show:
06.02.2004 Los Angeles, CA, Great Western Forum, Meteora World Tour
Reason:
Chester got pretty sick a few shows before and was diagnosed with 'bronchitis and acute laryngitis'. Go watch the Long Beach 04 DVD (the day before). You can see he was pretty knocked up but he still did the show with an abbreviated setlist. The band went back and played the show at the end of the Meteora World Tour.
2007
Show:
15.06.2007 Venezia, Italy, Parco San Giuliano di Mestre, Heineken Jammin' Festival, Euro. Tour
Reason:
A major storm with high winds and heavy rains (tornado!) hit the area and actually knocked down a light tower. This occured right as My Chemical Romance was about to take the stage. The rest of the festival was canceled. Actually, because of this, some of LP's equipment got messed up and they were without some of it for the next show in Austria. The band has not made the date up yet.
2008
Shows:
01.03.2008 Albuquerque, NM, Tingley Coliseum, US Arena Tour
02.03.2008 El Paso, TX, Don Haskins Center, US Arena Tour
Reason:
Chester was diagnosed with tracheobronchitis and had to take a few days off. The band has not made the dates up yet.
Shows:
14.06.2008 Hultsfred, Sweden, Hultsfred Folkets Park, Hultsfred Festival, European Tour
15.06.2008 Interlaken, Switzerland, Flugplatz Interlaken, Greenfield Festival, European Tour
Reason:
Brad had an ear infection that prevented him from flying from Finland to the shows.
Show:
24.06.2008 Istanbul, Turkey, Kuruçeşme Arena, European Tour
Reason:
The show was obviously at least planned, because Music For Relief had an auction up for 2 tickets and passes to meet the band on eBay. Later on, a show was scheduled for Mannheim, Germany on that date, so we assume that the Istanbul plans fell through for some reason.
Shows:
06.10.2008 Las Vegas, NV, The Joint @ Hard Rock Hotel, UNLV Private Show
12.10.2008 Shanghai, China, Shanghai Stadium, Music For Relief Asian Benefit Tour
15.10.2008 Wuhan, China, Xinhua Lu Stadium, Music For Relief Asian Benefit Tour
17.10.2008 Taipei, Taiwan, Zhōngshān Soccer Stadium, Music For Relief Asian Benefit Tour
19.10.2008 Beijing, China, Beijing Workers' Stadium, Music For Relief Asian Benefit Tour
21.10.2008 Macau, China, Cotai Arena @ The Venetian Resort, Music For Relief Asian Benefit Tour
Reason:
Chester slipped two discs in his back.
