rob bourdon interview

Il sait jouer de la batterie depuis ses 10 ans et du piano. The scene was no less male dominated than many rock scenes before it had been, but its practitioners’ moans conveyed a sense of chafing against bodily constraints and cultural expectations. Just a tumblog devoted to the awesome drummer of Linkin Park. Your web-browser is very outdated, and as such, this website may not display properly.

It was an extremely memorable experience and makes me want to do more to help.After playing the same songs over and over again it is easy to slip into autopilot on certain parts. Once in a while a brand new stick will break though.I really enjoyed touring with Metallica on the Summer Sanitarium tour a few years back.

I probably didn’t think so at the time.I started off playing backyard parties in junior high school. If you see an image of yours that you don't want posted, please drop me a note and I'll gladly take it down.I do not know any of the members of Linkin Park, nor do I have any way to contact them personally. We used to play jokes on other bands at the end of the tour.We were on tour with the band Deadsy on family values about 6-7 years ago and we thought that their stage set looked like a putting green. We had the chance to meet one of the families and got to see first hand how our donation was helping.

Linkin Park had a full-time singer, Bennington, as well as a full-time rapper, Shinoda, who genuinely cared about his craft’s history—even if he mostly made clumsy additions to it. Once in a while a brand new stick will break though.I really enjoyed touring with Metallica on the Summer Sanitarium tour a few years back. Bennington’s death was the latest in a crescendo of shocks in the rock world, following the 2017 suicide of Soundgarden’s Chris Cornell (a close friend of Bennington’s) and the 2015 fatal overdose of Stone Temple Pilots’ Scott Weiland (whose band Bennington had played in). Just a tumblog devoted to the awesome drummer of Linkin Park. But in hindsight, Linkin Park’s trajectory, and Bennington’s, sheds light on an evolving quest for new ways to express vulnerability. One of the biggest was when our first record Hybrid Theory sold 45,000 copies the first week and then sold even more the second week. I dropped out for the first part of the bridge and then on the second go around I came back in making it sound like my mistake was intentional. “Push me to the edge / all my friends are dead,” went the chorus to Lil Uzi Vert’s 2017-dominating smash. Luckily he wasn’t hit! A lot of bands make one good record and then disappear, so even though we felt like we were on the map we knew we had to continue to work hard.We went to New Orleans last year to work with Habitat For Humanity. Fuck Yeah, Rob Bourdon! Meteora rise: Linkin Park are (l-r) Dave Farrell, Rob Bourdon, Mike Shinoda, Brad Nelson, Chester Bennington and Joseph Hahan. If the results were ugly, so was the subject matter: pain and trauma, expressed in even more personal terms than before. He got up out of bed and peed on the floor right next to where Chester was sleeping at the time. Please consider upgrading to a modern, faster and more secure browser. The pop landscape that has emerged may bewilder Bono, but space has opened up for male fury in more malleable forms than ever—and such fury seems to be, for better and for worse, in plentiful supply.Linkin Park’s product was male rage in a form the entire family could mosh to. When the rest of the band continued to play I had to figure out how to make my mistake sound musical. Tour dates. We used to play jokes on other bands at the end of the tour.We were on tour with the band Deadsy on family values about 6-7 years ago and we thought that their stage set looked like a putting green. Once again in pop-music history, when hard anger meets soft vulnerability, the commingling almost always comes with a dose of beauty and a jolt of sonic possibility.It also, once again, comes with troubling and inexplicable real-life associations. I change out the sticks I’m playing with every 3-4 songs to avoid breaking one. Your web-browser is very outdated, and as such, this website may not display properly. Luckily he wasn’t hit! Linkin Park introduced new ways of expressing male angst into the mainstream—an evolution that continues today.Bono’s comment got me thinking not just about that lineage of sound and sentiment, but about Chester Bennington, the Linkin Park singer whose suicide a year ago this summer I’ve had very much in mind. I also worked as a waiter for a while at my uncle’s French restaurant which was fun looking back on it.

I’ll say what I said before; it’s unlikely. It was an extremely memorable experience and makes me want to do more to help.After playing the same songs over and over again it is easy to slip into autopilot on certain parts. Yet dark emotion is not all that distinguishes this scene.

Sep 10 '14 ★ doncf asked: Is Rob really married? I have started a tour or two after sitting around at home for a couple of months. We donated money to build a couple of homes for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. I was a freshman at the time and a couple of guys that were a few years older asked if I wanted to start a band with them after seeing me play at a school event.

I don’t think it sounded very good.I don’t like breaking sticks, probably because I’m a perfectionist and don’t like missing a beat.

It does not seem coincidental that one of the biggest songs of 2017, Logic’s “1-800-273-8255,” measurably In the face of these dark facts, who can avoid pondering some sort of grim transference of inner torment across generations? If I didn’t play in that band though, I don’t know if I would have met Mike and Brad. We filmed our DVD “Live In Texas” on this tour.At home I try to work out at least 3 times a week.
