Could Linkin Park be making a comeback? Perhaps, according to bassist Dave ‘Phoenix’ Farrell. Just last month Farrell revealed the band is working on new material. But unfortunately, due to COVID-19, that work has been put on hold. It will be interesting to hear new music from Linkin Park, minus singer Chester Bennington, who tragically took his own life in 2017.
Today we look back at Linkin Park’s last show in Connecticut, which was on the Honda Civic Tour with Mutemath.
Linkin Park
Honda Civic Tour
Special Guests: Mutemath
Sunday August 12, 2012
Mohegan Sun Arena – Uncasville
About The Tour:
The 11th Annual Honda Civic Tour featured co-headliners Linkin Park and Incubus, plus special guest Mutemath. The tour had only 17 dates, making it the shortest Honda Civic Tour ever. Incubus didn’t join in on the tour until the third scheduled date in Boston.
The 2012 Honda Civic Tour kicked off in Bristow, Virginia on August 11th and wrapped up in Chula Visita, California almost exactly one month later. Mohegan Sun was just the second stop on the tour, which meant Incubus was not on the bill.
Interesting note: this would be Linkin Park’s last performance in Connecticut as their 2015 show, also at Mohegan Sun, was cancelled due to Chester Bennington’s ankle injury.
