Sum 41 will be busy this summer, but it won’t be on Metallica’s Summer Sanitarium 2003. Vocalist and guitarist Deryk Whibley says that Sum was offered a slot on the tour with Metallica, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Mudvayne, and the Deftones, but he thought that his band might not gel with the lineup. “I think we got offered some of the Metallica tour, but we’re not doing that,” Whibley said. “It was just too…We would love to tour with Metallica, but all the bands on the bill were just too weird for what we’re doing. I don’t know. I think… Read more »

The he-said/she-said between Britney Spears and Fred Durst went into overdrive Thursday morning when the Limp Bizkit frontman offered intimate details about his professional and personal relationship with the singer on Howard Stern’s syndicated radio show. “I swear on my son Dallas’ baby blue eyes I was telling the truth [about our relationship],” said a groggy Durst, who admitted to being out late the night before. Stern and his crew egged him on for salacious details for about a half an hour. “This [relationship] went on for a little while, that’s what’s pretty unbelievable about this crap she’s saying,” Durst… Read more »

Despite concerns that the Grammy Awards would become a forum for anti-war sentiment, most political messages were muted. “NO WAR” was written in silver letters on Sheryl Crow’s guitar strap as she performed, although her hair usually covered up most of the “NO.” Bonnie Raitt slipped in a four-word message, “let’s build some peace,” before handing out an award. And No Doubt’s Gwen Stefani wore a halter top emblazoned with the word, “love,” and combat fatigue hot pants. “I hope we all are in agreeance that this war should go away as soon as possible,” said Limp Bizkit lead singer… Read more »

From rampaging bikers at the Rolling Stones’ infamous Altamont show in 1969 to deadly stampedes by fans of the Who and Pearl Jam, the most notorious rock concert tragedies have generally been linked to the biggest names in the business. That is, until Great White took the stage of a tiny Rhode Island nightclub Thursday night. The heavy metal “hair” band, which reached the brief apex of its career in the 1980s, will now be forever remembered for a devastating fire that stands in a class by itself as the deadliest episode in the annals of rock ‘n’ roll mayhem.… Read more »

Limp Bizkit lead singer Fred Durst said that despite his recent outpourings of affection for Britney Spears, her life is too “out of control” for him to date her. Durst posted several romantic messages on his band’s Web site last month about the pop singer, such as, “I have never felt this way.” The 32-year-old said that when he met Spears, he thought, “Wow, this is just a very sweet Southern girl, just simple, you know, Southern girl,” he told “Access Hollywood” for an interview airing Monday. “But actually, she has a life like Michael Jackson. It’s, like, out of… Read more »

Back in 1999, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich confessed to feeling “a tremendous amount of hatred toward Limp Bizkit.” Now Metallica is hitting the road with Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park for the second Summer Sanitarium tour, which will hit at least 18 U.S. markets this year, beginning July 4. All three bands will play headline-length sets. Tickets for most of the shows will be going on sale Feb. 22.

When Britney Spears drops her new album this fall, don’t be surprised to find a little reminder of her relationship with Fred Durst. The Limp Bizkit frontman is among the producers working on Spears’ as-yet-untitled new album, due in October, according to a Jive Records spokesperson.

Fred Durst is keeping tight-lipped about his professional dealings with Britney Spears, but this weekend he spoke out about his personal relationship with her. “Anybody out there who has a serious problem with my feelings for Britney should just chill and worry about your own feelings for a minute,” Durst wrote in post on Limp Bizkit’s Web site Sunday. “[She] just happens to be a person that I [wouldn’t] have thought could make me feel this way,” he wrote. “And believe that I have never felt this way, so there.” It seems the man who once bluntly explained he “did… Read more »
