A excitement took over Emily Armstrong, the lead singer of Linkin Park, by playing the theme “Waiting for the End” at Rock in Rio Lisboa. The moment occurred last Sunday, June 21, and the video of the moment already ‘runs’ (and is commented) on social networks.
Remember that Linkin Park debuted live in Portugal in September 2003, with a concert in Lisbon at the then Atlantic Pavilion, now MEO Arena.
They then returned several times to Portuguese stages, always in the context of festivals, particularly in Rock in Rio Lisboa in 2008, 2012 and 2014.
To remember that Emily Armstrong has been lead singer of Linkin Park since 2024. The band paused after Chester Bennington's death in 2017.
