    From Billboard:

    "'NEW' NO. 1: Same as the old one, and that lifts Linkin Park into elite territory in the history of the Alternative Songs chart.

    "New Divide" leads the airplay list for a 10th week, making Linkin Park just the second act in the chart's 21-year archives to enjoy reigns of at least 10 weeks with three or more tracks. The band stayed on top for 12 weeks in 2003-04 with "Numb" and held sway for 15 frames with "What I've Done" in 2007…"

    A good pic from the show in Shanghai last night. This was the same venue that hosted this year's Olympic events. It was an amazing show, and a fantastic experience in China all-around. A big thanks to our Chinese fans and friends who helped make these shows a reality!

    More good stuff:

  • End of Tour Update

    August 13, 2009 66 Comments

    Hey guys...thanks for the suggestions here http://www.mikeshinoda.com/blog/responses_to_fans/poa_intro about what to rap over the "Points Of Authority" intro. I threw some of "Step Up" over it the other night, and "Dedicated" last night. Dedicated sounded pretty good, in particular.

    Three more shows to go on this tour (Shanghai, Macau, and back to L.A.), then we're home...and the Glorious Excess (Dies) art show kicks off on the 29th. I'm finalizing all the last minute details for the show: the art is being delivered to the museum, the book has gone to print, and I'm planning the rest of the exciting details of the show. I'll try to cover as much of it as I can, here on mikeshinoda.com, for all of you that live too far away to make it. But for those of you that can come, I hope eo see you there. There's nothing like seeing the art in person...
