UK Shows Confirmed

[Alex]

Linkin Park will perform two shows in March, their first in the UK since September 2001. The band will play London Brixton Academy on March 5th and the Manchester Apollo on March 7th. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, January 29.

"We really want to show everybody that we care about the fans in the UK," smiles Chester. "We want them to feel special. After we do those shows, we're starting a big tour in the States called 'Project Revolution', and in order for us to do everything that we want to do, it just seemed right to start out in England. Last time we played in London, it was like an ocean of people and the energy of that show was amazing. We love it in England. It's definitely one of the highlights of our touring cycle when we get to go there."

well according to ticket master they play brixton on the 5th of MARCH not february.
I think kerrang have got it wrong and they mean 5th and 7th of March because otherwise it gives like a week gap to buy tickets.

I knew kerrang had the dates wrong
this is from nme
'The shows, at the London Brixton Academy (March 5) and Manchester Apollo (7), come in support of their new album 'Meteora', which is due at the end of the month. '
