Linkin Park set up Tsunami Charity to help victims

NEW YORK (Linkin Park Official & Fans Websites/Top40 Charts) - MTV is reporting that Linkin Park have joined forces with the American Red Cross to establish Music for Relief: this new charity is going to help victims of the tsunami destruction in southern Asia.
According to Linkin Park's management team the band has already donate $100,000 for the charity.

Linkin Park guitarist Brad Delson said that "as a band, we were in a position to help, but this needs to be a lot broader effort - both by our fans and by other musicians. If one of our fans can donate $10, then that's going to help, and the faster we can do it, the better.

Here in the States, we might not think that we're directly affected by all this, but we can help.
And the more we can do, and the quicker we can do it, the more lives we can save. Obviously, there's been a horrendous, unparalleled loss of life. But a lot more people are going to die from being homeless and the problems with the water and diseases.

We played what was the largest Thai concert in the past 10 years. It was an amazing show, and I carry with me the hospitality of the Thai people and the people of Southern Asia," Delson continued.
"And having been there, I can just say that people there were so welcoming to us, and I really hope that through this effort we can help in some small way."
