The former lead singer of Linkin Park, and the rapper.

They’re both pretty chill and down to earth dudes when you get to know them.

Year is 2002

The scenario is:

You love to play instruments, and at the moment, you’re at Guitar Center. You’re looking through the song books, with all the notes to your favorite songs. You see a AC/DC one, a Nirvana one, a Green Day one, a Metallica, and then..a Linkin Park one? You see, you don’t always see ANY Linkin Park song books at Guitar Center, as they haven’t existed prior (It’s 2002). You pick up a few song books, and continue to explore. You hear someone playing the drums, and you look. It’s a young child! Playing professionally! You look there, proud for someone you don’t even know. You continue to walk down, and then you finally see the other instruments, and the guitars. There’s this beautiful metallic indigo, cyan, and violet guitar. (I can’t add the image for some reason, but search up ibanez guitar, and you should see it as one of the first few items) In that same isle, there’s guitar strings. This is where Chester and Mike come in the story. You see, Mike was playing his electric guitar a little too rough, and the strings broke. Both him and Chester were there, looking for more strings. What do you do?
