LINKIN PARK Singer Breaks Arm During Show

October 17, 2007

The Pulse of Radio reports: LINKIN PARK singer Chester Bennington apparently broke his arm just four songs into the band's concert in Melbourne, Australia on Sunday night (October 14). Fans attending the show reported at the group's official message board that Bennington injured himself in a fall, although he did manage to complete the set. Co-vocalist Mike Shinoda confirmed the injury in a brief post and said that Bennington did not plan to miss any shows or meet-and-greets with fans.

The band will head to China, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Japan and South Korea after finishing its Australian trek next week.

LINKIN PARK is expected to return for another U.S. tour in February of 2008.

The California-based group is supporting its third full-length album, "Minutes to Midnight", which was released last May.

The latest video from the record, for the song "Shadow of the Day", can be viewed below.
