Show Notes
- Chester forgot the first line to "Numb". Instead of singing "I'm tired of being what you want me to be", he sang "Don't know what you're expecting of me". Realizing his mistake, he stopped and motioned to the band to start over but the fans had already started to sing it for him so he just laughed and continued from there.
- After "Numb", Chester announced that a member of the touring staff named Janet was leaving the band and that that night was the last concert for her. He asked the fans to sing Happy Birthday to her and led them in singing it. Mike said Bye Janet while Chester kissed her right temple.
- Mike tried to get the fans to sing the bridge of "In The End" on cue but failed. The fans continued to sing anyway while he said he had to give it a shot. Then he just laughed and let the fans sing.
- During "A Place For My Head", a 25-year-old customer service officer known as "Gene", was handpicked by Mike to go onstage and sing part of the song. Mike spotted him because "he's the maniac who's been jumping up and down the whole time". After that, Mike brought out his camcorder to record the crowd, saying, "Something for the people back home".
- Yohan, the lead singer from the group Pia, came out and joined the band on "One Step Closer".
Other Notes
- This was Linkin Park's first show in Singapore.
- For unknown reasons, Linkin Park took the stage 90 minutes late.
- PIA, the opening act, was initially booed by the audience, but over time they won over the crowd.
- "But in an earlier interview backstage with Life!, Bennington revealed that he was going to curb his behaviour because of censorship sensitivities here. Usually, I cuss a lot on stage,he said. And I spit to clear my throat. I'm not sure I'll be doing that here.Onstage, Bennington would occasionally walk behind the drums to guzzle water and was seen discreetly hacking onto the floor when his back was turned to the crowd. And true enough, not one swear word escaped his lips. I don't think it takes away from the performance,he said. Our songs don't have vulgarities in them anyway.Grinning, he added: It's a little like being at grandma's for dinner. You can't cuss, so you can't say things like, pass the fucking boiled carrots, birch.Not that the crowd, which numbered around 15,000, and included pre-teen kids as well as adults, cared."
- LPTimes had "One Step Closer" from this show, shown on local TV, up for download. The video also features a clip of "Don't Stay". The video was taken from a TV news broadcast, so there's a woman talking during it. The original "One Step Closer" video (without the woman talking) was uploaded to Pia's (Korean band) MySpace page.
- Review of "TheStraitsTimes":
"Instead of buying tickets, some fans stood outside the Padang watching the large screens televising the performance on either side of the stage. Others camped out by the Esplanade, where the music could clearly be heard"
