On June 2nd Linkin Park plays at the Olympijskiy ARENA for their second show on their nine show European tour in promotion of "The Hunting Party". Opening the show will again be "Animal ДжаZ". The band has of course played this venue before, on June 6th, 2007 as part of their Minutes To Midnight European tour. Making that the second ever Russian show, and this the 8th Russian show all together. Their first performance in Moscow was the legendary Transformers 3 Premiere which was shot by MTV for their "World Stage" series. At this show they debuted a new intro to "New Divide" and also played the remix version of "Iridescent" for the first time ever. Video of that is below. [video=youtube;rdpx7rvv3dw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdpx7rvv3dw[/video] With the two previous Moscow shows, the Russian fans have flash mobbed the performances, in 2011, during "Wisdom, Justice and Love" they held up signs with the words "Wisdom", "Justice" and "Love" on them. And one sign with a troll face. In 2012 the fans did a number of things, such as releasing balloons and holding up signs that said "MIKE SEXY". Can we expect to see another flashmob at this performance? You can see a fan recording of one of the 2012 flashmobs below.

At the show, someone live streamed the first 8 minutes before stopping, you can check out the recording of that here. After this show the band head to Wrocław for a show on June 5th, making it their after June 9th, 2012, before taking the stage at Rock Am Ring for the fourth time on June 7th.
Accoring to the LPRussia fan base there will be another flash mob. I wonder what it will be like this time.
