Help Us Make #HappyBdayMikeShinoda a TT on the 11th

Wednesday, February 10, 2010

I tried to spread the word, and many other people are as well! We just HAVE to make Mike's birthday a TT, as I said in the last post, it's not about how early we start posting about it's how many people we get on the same time posting about it!
This IS after all the Mike Shinoda Clan, a fansite for Mike Shinoda, we MUST get this a Trending Topic (TT). We have over 1000 followers on Twitter, PLEASE help. Spread the word!

I made a time table so we can all get online at the same time, because I truly believe that's the only way we can succeed. I mean, just today American Idol was a TT, why? Because it was on TV and lots of people were watching it at the SAME time and tweeting about it at the same time!

So, here's the time table:

Find your city, or a city close to you and calculate the time zone. You can also use this for help. We tried to include all the largest cities but there were just too many so we included most of them and skipped around the time zones!
I should also mention we'll be online for 30 minutes to an hour, perhaps longer tweeting this. WE CAN DO IT!

Also be sure to check the MSC site on the 11th as well! ;)

Can We Make #HappyBdayMikeShinoda a TT?

Tuesday, February 9, 2010

First, make sure to read Mike's latest blog post.

Second, it's almost Mike's birthday!! It's not TODAY, which I'm sure many people will think it is...because of the title. It's on February 11th! I want every single Mike Shinoda fan to post #HappyBdayMikeShinoda on Twitter, we got to try our BEST to make it a trending topic (TT) on Twitter. We are the MSC we have got to make #HappyBdayMikeShinoda a trending topic! We just have to! I'm thinking it's not how early we start posting it...it's how many people we can gather to post it and the time we start posting it. If we all post it during certain hours I'm sure we can get this to be a TT, but to make this happen I need to know if fans are willing to do this.

Suggestions?
Post a comment below, tweet to us, or email us.

MTV Interviews Linkin Park About the New Album

MTV interviewed LP yesterday at the Grammys. Phoenix takes most of the spotlight in the video, you get a bit of Shinoda at the end:

MTV Shows

I can't rip it...I'll try again later.

Here's the rest of the interview:

By now, you're probably aware that Linkin Park have a new album coming out this year, a challenging "concept record" that features plenty of "grandiose insanity."

But what you may not know is when that album is hitting stores. Well, we do — sort of. Because when MTV News caught up with the guys in Linkin Park on the red carpet of Sunday's Grammy Awards, co-frontman Mike Shinoda filled us in on the release date.

"Toward the end of the year, we're going to have a new record out," he said. "It's produced by myself and Rick Rubin."

So there you go — the new LP from LP will be out by the end of 2010, which is good news for the band's long-suffering fanbase. Of course, it should be noted that just last year Shinoda's pal Chester Bennington told MTV News that the still-untitled album could be out as early as June, so it would appear the release date is still very much in flux (an e-mail seeking comment from the band's label, Warner Bros. Records, was not returned by press time).

Of course, Linkin Park weren't just at the Grammys to spill secrets about their new album — they were also nominated for an award, as a live version of their hit "What I've Done" was up for Best Hard Rock Performance. And though they were honored by the nod, they'd be lying if they said it wasn't a bit surprising.

"This particular nom was a little unexpected for us. It was actually for a live track and when I heard there was a possibility of us being nominated, I thought initially it would be for 'New Divide,' because that was the most recent single," LP bassist Dave "Phoenix" Farrell said. "But they actually got this off of Road to Revolution, which is the live DVD we did a ways back. ... So when I got the e-mail and read it, I had to do a little double-take."

"Being nominated for a live track in the midst of all these studio tracks is a good feeling," Shinoda added. "It made me a little nervous, because you only get one take when you do a live recording. I don't think there's even that many live tracks nominated this year."

And while LP didn't win the Grammy (it went to AC/DC's "War Machine"), you get the feeling they weren't too bummed. After all, they've got big things on the horizon — toward the end of the horizon, that is.
