50 Cent to join Fort Minor on Asia/Austrailia Tour?

Couple of days ago I posted that Fort Minor will tour Asia and Australia in the coming months with a surprise guest, now this has not been official confirmed yet but my friend Pamela reports that it was announced in Taiwan that 50 cents will do a concert with Fort Minor in Taiwan in February next year. They also said that if the reaction is good, Linkin Park will come to Taiwan for their first concert in the country in October. I will post an update when I get more details. Again, please note that this is not confirmed yet so for now take it as a rumour. Thanks Pam.

Update: Just got an update from Pam, both UDN and Liberty Times has posted a report about the concert. Liberty Times reports that the concert will be held on February 24, 2006 at the Chung-San soccer field in Taipei. Fort Minor will play the first 60 - 70 minutes (maybe more) and then 50 Cent will perform in the next 90 mins. Tickets will go onsale on January 1, 2006 at 2000 - 6000 NT (about 59 - 176 USD)

It makes sense because of the SpyTech website it says there will be a suprise guest.

EDIT: 50 Cent's official website says he will be in Taiwan on the 24th.

Lptimes posted info from Chester's LPU Chat.

On the new Linkin Park album
We're all really excited about making this record. I can't really say anything about the direction of the record, because we haven't ever really conciously pre-concieved an album, and so the album kind of comes to us when ideas comes to us. Music comes to us, if the album wants to reveal itself to us it will. I would have to say that after listening to some ideas with Mike the other night, kicking around ideas on new music, put it this way, I couldn't go into the studio the next day because of all the screaming I did. There will be A LOT of screaming. My screaming seems to get harder and more disgusting every time I do it. I had to go home and go to bed after I was working on the music at Mike's.

On his solo project/album
I've been quiet about the solo record because there isn't a definite release date right now because Linkin Park has decided to go into the studio and LP always comes first. What's best for Linkin Park is what's best for the fans. I play guitar, I play keyboard, I did programming, and I sing on the solo album. Ryan, Amir and Fu and I all did everything together on it. The project is called Snow White Tan and I've been tossing some ideas around for the name of the record but it hasn't been named yet. As soon as it's ready to be released, everyone will know. As far as my solo stuff is concerned, I wrote the bulk of the music and all the lyrics and stuff, the other guys I am working with have contributed quite a bit to the album as well. It's not really a collaboration with anyone besides them. Everything on the record is different than Linkin Park. Even the way I am singing is my own sound, it sounds different. In every way.

With Linkin Park we work in pairs and groups. With my solo stuff I kind of lived with Ryan while I made it so it was a totally different environment. We'd have parties and friends over WHILE i was recording. People would come in and listen. Very laid back and relaxed. We held true to certain important security measures, but people around got to hear it. But that would never happen on a LP record, it's more confined and serious. Just a different style. On my album we recorded everything in one room. My kid could be on the couch playing video games. Very relaxing and different. LP is much more regimented, more like a MACHINE. Finely tuned machine or race car is LP. Really tight and really good.

On the 'Morning After' track, whether it will be the same as on his solo album
No, they are not the same. Amir and Fu did a remix version of the song that's not as heavy and is a little more electronically driven, but fits the style of the movie better than the original version, that will be on my record.

They also have the transcript from some other fansite. Not sure if you guys can post this since it is "LPU" stuff, but it has some nice info on there.

Numb/Encore also placed 43rd on the Hot Digital Tracks chart, and 40th on the Hot Digital Songs chart. Don't know what the difference is.

Chester said that's a remix. Verses don't seem to fit all that well with the remixed music but the chorus rocks. The groove reminds of me Blue Man Group's "The Current".

The Fort Minor Media Player has been updated.

The new international dates have been put onto the player, and the upcoming Fort Minor single, "Where'd You Go" has been put onto it too.

Vote for Linkin Park to play unplugged at MTV Germany. They're in second place with 25% and Rammstein has 60%. Small chance LP could win, but if the whole LPA would vote it could make a difference

Is the poll question "Who Do You Want To Play Unplugged" or "Who Should Play Unplugged"? It seems more like an opinion vote that will most likely just be food for thought and not actually a reality if one band wins.

"Who Do You Want To Play Unplugged". So I guess its more of a opinion vote yeah And I really dont know if they have done this before with other bands.
