Carson Daly Interview

May 30, 2009

I did an interview with Carson Daly for his show yesterday. Keep an eye out for it on his show. We talked about New Divide, the new record, and listening to NWA and 2 Live Crew when we were kids. I don’t know when they’re going to air it, but it should be in the next couple of weeks.

We also talked about the new white and green MS/DC Remix sneakers…speaking of which, it’s your last chance to get 20% off on stuff in the mikeshinoda.com web store. If you buy a pair of the new shoes, you get that discount on anything else in the store (so if you were thinking of getting one of the prints, that’s $100 US off). Just FYI…

EDIT: I don’t make money on these items; the money from the sales of my art (which includes things such as the sneakers, books, and prints) goes to charity. It goes to Music For Relief and my scholarship at Art Center College of Design.

EDIT: Incidentally, I think he misheard me when I said I wouldn’t call this a concept album, but that’s OK. You get the point…we are striving to make something fresh. Whether we get there or not, at least that’s where we’re trying to go

Ellen Commencement Speech

I know this post is pretty random…but after seeing my commencement speech, my friend showed me this one. I don’t really follow her or watch her show, but Ellen DeGeneres might be a genius.

The articles are cool…but what’s up with this:

I guess they couldn’t decide between a photo of the shoes or me…so they superimposed the shoes into one of our concert photos? Weird. Next time, just show the shoes!
