Limp Bizkit Reschedule Reunion Concert

"I was never much of a fighter," Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst admits to Spinner. "I got beat up a lot. The irony came after it blew up really big and people weren't listening to what it was really about anymore and our music was actually fueling the bullies and the jocks that beat me up. " So perhaps it's a blessing in disguise that Limp Bizkit's first U.S. show in eight years -- originally scheduled for July 10 in conjunction with the UFC 100 championship in Las Vegas -- was canceled after Bizkit's label, Interscope, and the UFC couldn't reach an agreement over DVD publishing.

To make it up to fans, the reformed original lineup of Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto and DJ Lethal will still play a one-off U.S. show in Las Vegas a week later at the Pearl Concert Theater at the Palms Casino Resort on July 18th. And one more minor detail: it's free. Admission will be provided on a first come, first serve basis.

But fans shouldn't expect any new Bizkit tunes just yet: with a new album due this fall, Bizkit didn't preview any new tunes during last month's European Unicorns N' Rainbows tour. "Sometimes it's cool when I go to a concert and a band plays a song I've never heard before," Durst explained. "For Limp Bizkit, we really feed off the crowd and the energy and the interaction. If we play a new song no one's ever heard, they sort of just stand there. We feel like a bunch of guys up on the stage with egg on our face."
