Hello Mr. Shinoda,

I've got a problem for about 4 years. I'm now at the age of 19 and have to choose which way I go, to earn money and maybe build a family.

I'm very interestet in recording Music. I Practive since I was sixteen I think. I don' have that much equipment, but all money I have, I spend in Microphones, Preamps and so on.

Of course I already recorded some songs and I think I'm pretty well i hope.

My dream would be to work on with that after school ( I have my Abitur in one year ),  but the chances to get a job are very bad.

So I ask you, wether you have any tip for me. Music is my life and I don't want to loose that.

I hope you can help me in that point!!

Best wishes

Leon Christen.

Ps. Sorry for writing mistakes. I'm german ;-)

and your Songs with LP are great. You're my favorite Band since Hybrid Theory! But Minutes to Midnight was not soooo god, but also well =)
