Linkin Park Live Guide - List Of All Songs Played Live
Below you will find a list of all songs Linkin Park has ever played live, with the exception of one Xero song (Pictureboard, as discovered in a small private chat LPPanther had with Mike Shinoda in 2005, info here) that they played right after the name change. This list was compiled by Astat and will be updated continuously. Hopefully we can get a full Fort Minor list going soon and maybe even a Chester Bennington list if possible.
This list is updated after the completion of every tour instead of after every show. Once a tour is completed, check back here for the newest dates and info.
Last time updated: After the Europe 08 Winter Tour.
Next time to be updated: After the North America 08 Winter Tour.
