Mike:
Most of us met a long time ago. Brad and I met in junior high
and we met Rob in high school, we met Joe in college
Chester: And they made me in college in a chemistry class.
They copied Frankenstein's work and used pieces of dead people,
which is why I have to wear this (touches his spiked collar), to
hide the scar tissue.
Mike: Except we were in art school. That was the whole
problem. In art school, and there were no really good chemistry
classes - so look what we came up with!

What's your plans for Valentine's Day?
Chester: Masturbation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Mike Shinoda: 'I have a
toothbrush. My toothbrush is sexy!'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Mike: We don't know what this
video (osc) is about. Joe [Hahn], our DJ, is the only one who
knows what it's about, and he won't tell us.
Chester: He's an alien anyway.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Chester:
I'm the most important person...ever.
Mike: I think Chester's full of himself, and I think that's
really HOT.
Chester: Sometimes at night you're full of me too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
What
do u guys do for fun?
Phoenix: We like to dress up in cat suits and re-enact
the broadway show "cats"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| Mike:
mike is so hot....oops, I mean Joe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
brad:
I want to know if Joe Hahn sleeps in the nude
Mike: yes he does (wink wink)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Chester:
Everybody thinks we're a boy band!
Metal-is: Yeah, where does this come from? I never
mistook you for a boy band
Chester: We're sooo boy bandish, aren't we?
Mike: Here's the thing: we didn't really hear about that
until we left the US. In the US, I think I heard a rumor through
my brother that somebody started back East, but for the most
part, nobody has even heard that before. Maybe it's the fact
we've never been out here before and the lack of communication
between fans and ourselves made that happen, but almost every
interviewer has asked something about this boy band thing, and
it's freaking ridiculous, it's so silly!
Chester: I think it's because of my strikingly good
looks.
Mike: I think it's because of your strikingly bad looks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| Brad:
we like to hold hands and comb each other's hair in our spare
time.

| Chester
on their strangest fan:
"There's this 13-year-old
kid from Pittsburgh. He comes up to us and goes, 'I'm stalking
you dude, and when you reach the peak of your success I'm going
to kill you.' Then, during the show he's down the front telling
Mike that he wants to 'rape his soul'! I think that's cool, but
he probably needs to chill out a bit."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Chester:
For some reason we like each other.
Mike: He likes me a lot, and I can't stand him.
Chester: Oh, I guess not then.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
What
was the hardest part about making the album?
Mike: Sitting in the same room with brad for two months.
but then we got on tour and it just got worse.
Brad: I didn't shower a lot then.
Mike: He showers less now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Mike:
Chester and I met at a male strip club.
Chester: We were both trying to get jobs there as
dancers.
Mike: And it just didn't work out....because my butt
wasn't big enough.
Chester: Yeah and I've got what they call the crispy
cream which is a little fat area around my belly button which is
kinda like a donut.
Mike: Its from eating too many donuts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Shoutweb:
What would your name be as a professional wrestler?
Mike: I'm not a wrestler. I'm a manager. Our wrestling
partners are our other singer, Chester, and our DJ, Mr. Hahn...
they're the Sugar brothers.
Shoutweb: What is this I heard about him getting naked?
Mike: Chester? He just likes to show his butt. He
wouldn't have the tights that most wrestlers have. He would have
a G-string.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
What's
the one thing you miss while you're on tour?
brad: My own toilet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Metal
Edge: The mullet is
making a comeback. Will we be seeing a red mullet on Chester bennington
at any point during OZZfest?
Chester: Personally, I hate them. I think it's a
disgusting haircut. I think parents who force their young boys
to wear mullets should be institutionalized. There's no reason
to ever have a mullet...Unless you're doing it just to be a
dork.
Metal Edge: So would you ever do that?
Chester: Of course.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Chester:
There was another time when Mike was in a really foul mood and
we had to make a pit stop so he could use a porta potty.
Mike: Chester?!
Joe: I remember this one!
Chester: Anyways, Mike went to use the porta potty and we
were waiting inside the RV. It was Joe's idea, but we all got
out and started to rock the thing back and forth. We didn't mean
to, but we ended up tipping the porta potty over while Mike was
in it!
Mike: That was so not funny.
Joe: Yeah it was, you should have seen the look on your
face when you got out of there!
Rob: Mike was covered in crap. He had to strip down
before we let him back on the bus because he smelled so bad!
Chester: Then we attacked him with air freshener.
brad: Lysol!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| brad:
"Rather than just stealing your shit they ask if they can
steal it. Chester came back into the dressing room without his
shoes or clothes or basically anything of him. He was like 'you
know what, people are so polite about taking my stuff that I
gave it to them'."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| Joe:
"Yeah I'm a Whore"
