(hennemusic) Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington was laid to rest in private ceremony near his home in Palos Verdes, CA on July 29th. Bennington died of suicide by hanging at his residence early on the morning of July 20.

TMZ reports the rocker's family and closest friends gathered for a private funeral service Saturday afternoon at South Coast Botanic Garden, with many of the guests musicians who'd played or toured with Bennington and Linkin Park.

A full stage, including a drum kit, was set up for musical tributes to be performed. Bennington's family decided to have a private funeral as opposed to a public one for fans, and security was reportedly tight.

All attendees were given memorial wrist bands and an access pass, similar to most concert VIP passes. Read more here.
