    • I was there. They cancelled the concert 15 minutes before the doors opened. Kinda bummed to pay 500 bucks in travelling and hotel expenses. Hopefully John Otto will have a quick recovery. It seems they are playing Russia today as planned (according to Fred’s twitter) so I wonder who’s on the drums tonight.

    • 500 dollars to see LB, serves you right

      I thought the same thing when I read that, and I LIKE the bizkit. Besides, back in their heyday, you had to make a concerted effort NOT to wind up in the middle of a limp bizkit concert.

    • The expenses would have been worth it if the show went ahead as planned. The 500 dollars covers 2 and that’s actually cheap considering the long traveling distance. You’d have to live here to understand. I don’t think Limp Bizkit’s ever played a show in Norway before though. I’m seeing Deftones+Coheed at the same venue in November and the costs will amount to more than 500 then too.

      lmfao @ element’s comment that was the best thing that could ever start a Limp Bizkit post. Given I still like them to this day I don’t mind the bashing because I think it’s hilarious.
