    I posted this on Facebook, ran to my little brother and told him what sad news was on the LPA, then he was like; Dude, it's the first of April.
    Me; oh yeah... xD
    But seriously, if this joke wouldn't have Dave in it but Chester I'd probably would have cried my eyes out.:WTF:

    Man, I thought Phoenix was joking with us, but it was LPA.

    :trollface: Nice work.

    At least one person fell for it so, yes, we should regard it as successful. :)

    For Phoenix, when it comes to playing golf rather than be in a band, it's... Easier To Run. :kappa:

    What's funny is that while you guys are all laughing over trolling on LPA, Linkinpark.com was actually updated last night in the music discography section. There you'll see a comin soon box! I don't think Mike would update snippets on a Sunday but it definitely is a teaser for Monday!

    How is it that I knew that as soon as I read Phoenix this was an April Fools Joke?

    Worst April Fools in the world :/ "Burn it Down leaked" didn't that make sense? Not a silly unrealistic over the top post that wasn't even believable or funny :(

    You'd think that would be the obvious prank, but have you seen how intense some people are around here lately? They'd have an army of overly-emotional Linkin Park fans asking for their heads on a stick if they lied about a leak.

    And THAT is why my earlier post involves interviews and official reveals instead of leaks.

    Love how people call this the worst prank in the world and yet as of 9:36am half of our twitter retweets are people believing it, and several of the people in here believed it for a second too. Bottom line: It's funny, and it made people smile and laugh. I'd say that's a pretty damn good April Fools.
