Fred Durst must have been having a really bad day when the Summer Sanitarium tour stopped outside Chicago Saturday.
The Chicago Sun-Times describes Durst as having a tantrum on stage and ending Limp Bizkit’s set after just 20 minutes. The report says heckling fans throwing garbage gave Durst a rough reception.
At first, Durst encouraged the abuse, then offered to fight anyone within earshot while yelling curses and sexual putdowns.
According to the report, “Had the villain in ‘The Wizard of Oz’ been a vile little boob like Durst rather than a snarly old lady in greenface, the movie’s ‘I’m melting!’ scene might have looked like this.”
The band left the stage early and Durst continued to curse the fans from the wings until someone took the microphone. That meant the crowd had to wait more than an hour before Metallica took the stage.
No comment from Limp Bizkit’s representatives.
