    On Thursday, June 12th Linkin Park will be playing the 2014 Greenfield Festival at Flugplatz in Interlaken, Switzerland. The festival takes place over a three day period with Linkin Park performing on the first day with acts such as Zebrahead, Bring Me the Horizon and Dropkick Murphys. The band's set will take place from 9:15PM CEST - 11:00PM CEST. View the full line-up and schedule via PDF on the Greenfield Festival 2014 website.

    Linkin Park have performed in Switzerland five times prior to this show, with their last being in St. Gallen, Switzerland on July 2nd, 2011 for the A Thousand Suns Tour. Their first date in Switzerland was on June 11th, 2007 for the 2007 European Tour. The show took place in Zurich, Switzerland as did two subsequent shows that followed on July 28th, 2009 for the 2009 European Tour and then November 1st, 2010 for the A Thousand Suns tour. The remaining show took place in Basel, Switzerland on January 18th for the 2008 European Tour.

    This show follows Linkin Park's performance at the Alfa Romeo City Sound Festival in Milan, Italy on June 10th, 2014. What made this show was special was Linkin Park's partnership with FanFootage in which the band asked fans to record live video when they performed Until It's Gone. The fans answered and organized a flash mob for the event where they threw glow sticks into the air and on to the stage during the song's finale. The band even highlighted it on their Instagram but you can check out a full video from the crowd below, including a speech Mike read in Italian.

    Linkin Park have been performing the same setlist at every show for their European leg and it's unlikely that will change for Switzerland. However, this is the penultimate show before the band head to the Download Festival on June 14th where they are set to perform a brand new set that will include Hybrid Theory front to back. So even if they don't change it up for this show, it will inevitably happen in a couple days for the final show of the tour. You can view all of Linkin Park's tour dates on the LPA Tour Page.

    The Until It's Gone performance wasn't half bad. :)
