LIVE EARTH: Linkin Park rages on

linkinparkThere's something about Linkin Park's personalized angst that makes them an odd fit for a protest concert. But for Live Earth they're actually quite perfect, because it won't be until the whole environmental debate becomes personal that the massive change organizers are hoping for will actually have a chance of taking place.

Other than their single "What I've Done," a rocker filled with regret that could apply to almost any failing, they smartly don't alter their regular set, raising the energy with "In the End" and "One Step Closer."

And they even got to scream what all today's debaters wish they could scream at their opponents, "Shut up! Shut up when I'm talking to you!"

The musicians, at least today, win that battle. They have the mics and the amplifiers.
