    In a follow-up to the 16 announced North American tour dates earlier today, Linkin Park have now revealed they will be playing two more shows during this leg of the tour in Canada, bringing the total Canadian dates to three shows. First Linkin Park will play X-FEST in Calgary on 9/1/12 and the very next day they will head to Edmonton for Sonic Boom Festival on 9/2/12. View a complete list of the announced dates below, including the two recent additions to Linkin Park's touring schedule. These shows appear to be part of the Honda Civic Tour, so it looks like Incubus may also be playing these shows.

    Yes and then hopefully they will swing by Ontario and some to Toronto! I was too young to go to the Minutes to Midnights shows in Toronto in 2007-2008 and due to events that I could not change I had to miss the A Thousand Suns show in 2011... Finally a time when I'm free all summer to see them and they aren't coming anywhere close to me. I really don't want to wait another album cycle for a chance at seeing them live for the first time.

    I didn't even notice that! Here I was jealous the whole time thinking BC was getting them lol. Well That's shitty.

    Canadian Linkin Park fans unite!! We want them here just as much as the Americans!! :headbang:

    while its not fully confirmed, I know Chester said they were headed to the UK for a tour after NA. It was in an interview from a few days ago.

    Well the fact that they added Calgary and Edmonton gives me slight hope that they're planning on adding more dates than whats been confirmed so far. I'm really hoping for that All-Canada tour they've been wanting to do for the past few years.
