by Matrix9523 on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkI truly don't know what to say. One of the best shows I have ever been to. The show came from Mike's heart and we could all feel it.

About
Mike Shinoda In Concert
If frontman Chester Bennington provided the howling catharsis in Linkin Park, Mike Shinoda served as the rock band's understated, Yoda-like presence. On hits such as "In The End" and "Somewhere I Belong," Shinoda dishes out hard-fought wisdom in an easygoing voice that reveals an intuitive grasp of groove and flow. Despite such outward calm, he isn't always even-keeled: On the angsty "Faint," Shinoda cranks up the urgency of his rapping to match the jagged, electro-metallic instrumentation.
Unsurprisingly, his non-Linkin Park work is just as wide-ranging and adventurous. Fort Minor serves as a solo outlet for inventive hip-hop with socially conscious lyrics and eclectic instrumentation. And on the 2018 album ‘Post Traumatic,' released under his own name, Shinoda exudes raw-nerve vulnerability as he works through the range of emotions he felt after Bennington's 2017 suicide. Naturally, it's a moving collection steeped in evocative electronic sounds, moody hip-hop production, and ruminative lyrics.
This genre-busting approach makes sense: Shinoda was raised in southern California, where he grew up a hip-hop fan—albums by Run-DMC, Beastie Boys, and LL Cool J were early faves—and he played piano and keyboards. As a teenager, his tastes broadened to include blues and jazz; later, he started dabbling in guitar, sampling and making beats, and eventually rapping.
Shinoda co-founded Linkin Park precursor band Xero while still in high school. He continued playing with the group during and after college, juggling graphic design work with his burgeoning music career. That love of art has never dissipated; in fact, Shinoda even contributed to Linkin Park's design aesthetic and packaging.
Appropriately, fans coming to his headlining tour can see displays of original artwork he made in parallel with ‘Post Traumatic,' in addition to hearing songs culled from that album, plus select cuts spanning his entire career.

by Ma11oryT on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkThe venue was GORGEOUS/ and Mike Shinoda put on the perfect show to display his new music- OLDest music- and pay Tribute to Chester. He had the crowd sing Chester’s parts in the Linkin Park music- and he told us stories about the early days- I even cried at one point (lol) , and he did some awesome mashups....I feel at peace- truly a wonderful performance.

by Jesdandar on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkThis was the second time I saw Mike's solo show. I saw him in June at the Gramercy Theater. His show is amazing. It is a mix of Linkin Park, Fort Minor and Post Traumatic songs.Mike is very interactive with the fans at each show and always includes a small part of each show to celebrate Chester. It is a very uplifting show and Mike is a very heartfelt and genuine guy. He has a ball onstage and his energy is infectious. The new rooftop Pier 17 is a beautiful venue and the view is spectacular.

by Seineseeker on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkReally personal and special experience. Mike Shinoda is so musical he can cut and paste all the solo, Fort Minor and Linkin Park songs around however he wants. Fantastic performance and show with so many highlights. Pier 17 has to be the best venue in New York City, and thankfully it was dry and not too cold in the middle of October!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Amazing
by Yurka on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkOne of the best shows I’ve ever attended, Post Traumatic is very good and Mike live is great, there were a bunch of old songs as well as new ones. During some the entire audience was singing while Mike would just play the instrument, very unique experience and I would go again if he were to do two nights in NYC.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Mike Shinoda was the best concept ever!
by imcrazed on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkPowerful, energetic, emotional and rocking-this was beyond a doubt the best concert ever. Mike was involved with the entire audience-reaching out and actually touching our hands-the energy was powerful. And the venue was the best! UNFORGETTABLE...

by DontHave1JustWant2Rate on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkOne thing that I love about Mike, he genuinely loves what he does and you can see that energy radiating off of him. He LOVES his fans and that’s something that no a lot of artists show. I can’t believe that I had the opportunity to see him live. AND when he came down to the crowd to sing with the fans, I was fortunate enough to have been right there under his nose!!! ❤️❤️❤️

by MRB1775 on 10/16/18The Rooftop at Pier 17 - New YorkMike Shinoda and his opening act Don Broco were simply amazing. The Venue in lower Manhattan was top notch with amazing service and views. But even if it was in a dive bar in nowheresville USA, Mike and Don Broco still would have made it an incredible experience
