MIKE SHINODA OF LINKIN PARK KICKS OFF POST TRAUMATIC TOUR IN HONG KONG WITH EMOTIONAL YET UPLIFTING SETLIST FULL OF HITS
Linkin Park 的領軍人物 Mike Shinoda 於8月7日（星期二）首次以個人身份在香港開騷，演唱會假九龍灣國際展貿中心匯星演出，這是他自隊友 Chester Bennington 在2017 年離世之後首次展開巡迴演出，並以香港作為整個《Post Traumatic Tour》的首站，讓不少粉絲非常期待。Mike自Linkin Park 的2013 年香港演唱會後首次踏足香港，今次帶同全新的樂隊成員演出，他在社交平台上載不少在香港的片段，更邀請粉絲在演唱會現場畫畫，他後來將這些粉絲的畫作放於台上展示，讓觀眾的畫作成為舞台的一部份，非常有心思。
Mike Shinoda在演唱會中交替演出Linkin Park、Fort Minor、以及他的個人作品，一開始的”Place To Start”、”Watching As I Fall”、” Castle of Glass” 已經看得觀眾血脈沸騰！他與香港觀眾打招呼時提到，這次以個人身份舉行巡演，最大目的是想到每一個城市向支持他、給他打氣的歌迷親自送上謝謝。Mike在唱到Linkin Park 名曲 “In The End” 的時候，向粉絲披露跟Chester初相識時的趣事，之後亦邀請大家合唱歌曲中Chester的部份，不少現場觀眾都忍不住落淚，場面感人。其後Mike在次唱出”Good Goodbye” 及 “Bleed It Out” 等Linkin Park經典，而在Encore部份更攀到台前圍欄演唱，一口氣以3首自己作品為這個《Post Traumatic Tour》作結。Mike將先後於本月9日到曼谷、12日到北京、及14日到上海演出。
Mike Shinoda, co-lead vocalist and founding member of Linkin Park has kicked off the Post Traumatic Tour in Hong Kong at Star Hall, KITEC on August 7. This marked his first tour as a solo artist following the passing of his Linkin Park bandmate Chester Bennington in 2017 and his first return to the city since the band’s last tour in 2013.
Before the show, Shinoda encouraged fans to create drawings that has become part of his stage prop, giving fans a chance to be part of the stage creation.
Shinoda satisfies fans with a setlist comprised of tracks from his 2018 solo album Post Traumatic and multiple hits from Linkin Park and Fort Minor. The show started with Fort Minor’s most recent single “Welcome”, Shinoda’s solo works “Place To Start” and “Crossing A Line” before moving on to Linkin Park hits “Waiting For The End” and an emotional piano cover of “In The End” where Shinoda invited fans to sing Chester’s part.
He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to fans, “One of the reasons I want to come out so badly is to thank you guys in person, to say thank you, Xie Xie (謝謝) for your support.” Shinoda will then continue to the next stop of the Post Traumatic Tour on August 9 in Bangkok, August 12 in Beijing and August 14 in Shanghai.
