Mike said he was surprised about the fans coming back.

Mike, we never left.

[k-town]

Damn, we fans are still here. Today not only 275.000 fans queued to get tickets for the Hamburg show but Linkin Park also went No.1 in Germany for the first time in their history.

I definitely noticed that smile too, especially when he said "It's good to see you again".
The feeling was mutual, and the smile was contagious 🙂

"The fans can sing for Chesters voice, and Emily can be Emily" that really touched me 😭

[RodimusPrime]

To see Mike happy again means everything

Shout out to Nicole Alvarez, she asked the perfect questions and got a lot out of Mike in just 15 minutes

Chester was an emphatic - empathetic singer. He literally lived the words he sang. That made the lyrics real when he sang them in a visceral way.

It's heartbreaking how people are giving Mike shit for what he wants to do to move on... He's getting enough backlash from people and now he has to hear it from the so called Linkin Park fans? Mike and the guys have been through enough over the last 7 year's...Chester will always be missed and never EVER EVER forgotten, However Chester was a loving, caring person who wanted to show love and Conquer hate.. Chester had a big heart, I don't think Chester would be proud of any of us for how Mike is being treated. Mike and the guys have the right to move on and continue to make music.. Linkin Park fan til the End #LPSoldiers #makechesterproud

I deeply miss Chester; cried my heart out when he left us. I’m also a huge fan of Mike & it’s impossible to not love and respect him. He’s the reason LP exists in the first place and is their primary song writer.. he’s one of the greatest artists/ producers ever in the history of rock but so humble and down to earth! I’ve been a fan since Hybrid Theory and cannot wait to hear the rest of From Zero❤🙏🏻

Mike is a great human being. I'm happy for him

[Lcsmu]

Mike is a genius and kudos to the interviewer for listening and genuinely beign interested. Sounds like two friends catching up.

[mythofechelon]

Mike is such a wholesome human being. And I loved the raw, uncut interview style - leaving in all the thinking, stumbling moments.

Shinoda is A big part of why I fell in love with Linkin Park

Yes I loved Chester but I’m already loving Emily

I’m 100% stoked for this new Chapter

[woistwalter]

We hungered so long for this!
"it´s good to see you again" ;)

[electronicmau]

Thank you for asking the questions and letting Mike talk it out and not interrupting.

[irmarangel]

Anything For Mike Shinoda He's very Humble. Always happy & trying to do nice things for Linkin Park Fanatics

[michaelmke]

Love seeing Mike happy again❤ and I can’t wait to see what else is in store for this new chapter of LP!

I had to listen to the set 3 times with headphones last night. And about halfway through the 2nd listen is when it hit me. First i was picking all the negative things and going through the stages of grief and the second listen i started to pick up on all the positives, and the 3d listen i was completely locked in and all for it. The song choices were great and genius.

Mike opening with, "It's good to see you all again, " got my attention, so I gave it a shot. Can't wait to see what they do next. Emily seems like a great spiritual successor to Chester, without trying to be a drop-in replacement (which would be an epic fail). I love the new song. Y'all gotta do a Texas show.
