Concert Review:  Linkin Park/30 Seconds to Mars

Linkin Park and 30 Seconds to Mars
Carnivores Tour – August 29th, 2014
First Midwest Bank Amphitheater – Chicago, IL

I bought tickets 15 minutes after I saw this show was going to happen. I was in a conference room at a client site and saw the notification come across (Thanks Bandsintown!), texted a friend, and pulled the trigger. It’s amazing how willing I am to drop $175 and book a hotel and drive to Chicago, but this was such a unique opportunity to see these two bands together. Originally, I thought this was a strange pairing – Alt Rock legends 30 Seconds to Mars with Nu-Metal giants Linkin Park, but I later learned that the pairing was at the request of the LP fans. Kudos to them for this suggestion – it ended up as a great one.
