Linkin Park downsizes homecoming show, slashes ticket prices

Linkin Park’s plans for a triumphal Dodger Stadium hometown show seem to have fizzled.

The band scotched their planned September show at the 56,000-capacity Dodger Stadium, instead moving to the 18,000-capacity Intuit Dome in Inglewood. Fans who bought Dodger Stadium tickets will be refunded and get first access to the Intuit Dome show on Sept. 13. Also, while experimental rapper Jpegmafia will still open, Queens of the Stone Age have dropped off the bill.

The band is now offering discounted tickets at US$39.95 (£31) for randomly assigned seats at any North American show.

The move is a notable capacity downgrade for the band, whose long-awaited comeback was marred by revelations about singer Armstrong’s long-standing ties to the Church of Scientology, and her support of Scientologist and convicted rapist Danny Masterson (which Armstrong later said she regretted).

Brazilian fans noticed two previously scheduled dates in Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre vanished from the calendar.

The band can take solace that they’re not alone in ticket troubles as recession fears loom. If even Beyoncé is having challenges selling out her stadium tour, no one is safe.

I just have no sympathy for anyone who regrets supporting a goddamn rapist
