RED bassist Randy Armstrong posted an incredible photo on Twitter in honor of late Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington. “So bummed about Chester. Still can’t believe it. I saw this tonight on the road and thought immediately of the pic LP posted. #RIP.”

My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way reflected on the late Chester Bennington in a recent interview, saying that Linkin Park “changed [his] life” by bringing his former band, My Chemical Romance, on the touring Projekt Revolution festival. “I met my wife [Mindless Self Indulgence bassist Lyn-Z on the tour],” Way told Nerdist. “We have an amazing life now and a daughter. My memories of that period and meeting Linds again are tied into Chester and his band.”
“He was actually at my wedding,” the singer continued. “Not a lot of people were there because we got married super quickly at the end of the tour when half the people had gone home. So there were literally only 30 or 40 people there, and he was one of them.”
