Linkin Park holding Projekt Revolution press conference

Linkin Park will hold a press conference on Monday afternoon (May 7th) at the Museum of TV and Radio in New York City to announce the lineup and dates for the band's fourth Projekt Revolution tour. Members of some of the other acts slated to appear on the bill will also attend the event. Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington told us that headlining any multi-band package makes him feel like he has to play host: "Any time we do a show, I kind of take that idea on, you know. It's our show, we need to not only play great for our fans, but also be respectful and professional with the other bands and their crews, so that word gets around, you know, that when you go out with Linkin Park, it's a great time. It's kind of like, I feel like I'm hosting a party all the time. It can seem tiring sometimes, but it's a lot of fun."

Projekt Revolution will begin on July 25th in Seattle and finish up on September 3rd in Denver. My Chemical Romance is one of the bands expected to participate in the trek.

Linkin Park will play a special concert on May 11th at New York's Webster Hall, which will be filmed and then screened in selected movie theatres around the country on May 14th. A complete list of theatres, as well as ticket info, can be found at FathomEvents.com.

The concert will also be webcast by AOL Music that same night, beginning at 9:30 p.m. ET.

The band's new album, Minutes to Midnight, arrives in stores on May 15th.

Linkin Park will headline the final night of New Jersey's Bamboozle punk festival this Sunday (May 6th).
