Linkin Park's Chester Bennington Talks About Upcoming Japan Tsunami Benefit Show

Linkin Park are playing a "secret" show at an intimate venue in Los Angeles on August 31st as a "reward" for their fans, whom they've challenged to raise funds for the Music For Relief charity that benefits Japan Tsunami relief. Each fan/supporter who raises $500 for this charity will be invited with a guest to attend the show. Fundraising remains open through August 24th and if you earn more than $500, you will be able to enjoy even more perks, such as meeting the band, autographed instruments and watching the show while on stage.

Noisecreep spoke to Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington about this charitable initiative to help raise more awareness and why the band asked its fans to do something more active than making a text donation. It's a smart way to engage fans in social change and to teach them how to modify their behavior when it comes to helping their fellow man.

Hopefully, by the time you're done reading this interview, you'll start your fundraising efforts.
