Guest appearances
Disturbed members David Draiman and Dan Donegan appears in one scene for the DVD, where Draiman tries to guess how the name "Linkin Park" is pronounced next to Donegan saying "Lick My Part". Slipknot turntablist Sid Wilson appears on the DVD, where he is testing out Joe Hahn's turntables and disc jockeys in one scene. Rock band Deftones, including members Chino Moreno and Stephen Carpenter, appear in a few shots of one scene, where they were taken a photo before they played at a concert when Mike Shinoda was going undercover for the KGB, as Chester Bennington explained in one scene for the DVD that (as a joke) they were gonna destroy the Deftones by "...replacing their water...with Vodka...".
