The reunited original lineup of
LIMP BIZKIT will play its first Stateside show in eight years on July 18 at the Pearl Concert Theater at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. This will be a FREE concert and admission will be on a first-come first-served basis.
LIMP BIZKIT's July 10 concert at Mandalay Bay Casino & Resort was canceled over concerns about DVD rights and disagreement over the venue. The concert was to have been part of the
UFC 100 mixed martial arts (MMA) championship weekend event at the Las Vegas resort.
Fred Durst,
Wes Borland,
Sam Rivers,
John Otto, and
DJ Lethal are gearing up to record their first new studio album with the original lineup since 2000's
"Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water".
Durst recently told the
NME, "I'm having a great feeling about going in and doing our record, more than I have about any of our albums before. It's not going to be a watered-down version of
LIMP BIZKIT, it's going to be a more explosive, more addictive, more driven version of
LIMP BIZKIT."
