Moments ago Linkin Park asked fans on their Twitter to submit questions for an online chat with Ask Anything, an online chatting site for bands/artists. You can submit your questions for the chat, which will take place June 30th at 8:00 PM, HERE. Who will submit questions for the chat? What do you want to ask? Let us know in the forums!

I asked how much stuff was from the ATS sessions used during the LT process, and if there were any b-sides to be shipped sometime. My question will most likely be buried over mountaintops of "WHEN U COMING 2 MY COUNTRY??????!!!!! LUVZ U ALL!!!!!" or other dumb bullshit we already know
"To Mike & Joe (Maybe Brad? Whoever is involved!): Hey guys! I wanted to ask you, having produced countless LP tracks with a lot of electronic content, how skilled/knowledgeable are you all in the art of sound design? I don't necessarily mean external processing (distortion, filtering, bitcrushing, etc.), but more so in the area of starting from scratch with synthesis (additive, subtractive, FM, granular, etc). You guys have made hundreds of cool sounds and I was just curious as to how deep you guys know how to go/like to go in the world of designing sounds from scratch. Thanks, Sebastian. P.S.: Can't wait to hear LIVING THINGS!"
I really hope they answer my question, I'm extremely curious to hear an aswer: Do you think that the fans have put a big pressure on you to return to your "old sound", and did that lead to making "Living Things" instead of experimenting more like "A Thousand Suns"?
Mine's kind of stupid I guess. Mostly a topic that interests me. Hopefully they answer with something we don't already know... "You all have always had a creative input into the way your albums are promoted/marketed. What would you say is the biggest change you've made in the way you promote or market your albums from Hybrid Theory to Living Things?"
Question asked. "What do you think gets your creative juices flowing the best: writing in the studio or writing on the road?"
I asked: "What song on LIVING THINGS was the most fun to make?" And also, if its 8PM what time will this be on for me, if i'm living in the UK?
My question was: ''What inspired you the most when you were in the process of making Living Things?'' Hope I get an answer.
I asked: "Which one do you guys think is better, boobs or bacon?" I'm really interested in their answer.
My question: You guys worked with Rick Rubin for a long time now. On A Thousand Suns Rick told you about the automatic writing process, something that you never have done in previous albums. There's anything you guys learned with Rick and used in the Living Things' production that you never have done before?
