Due to an unexpected health condition, Limp Bizkit have been forced to postpone their UK and European tour for 2022. The band were due to play across the UK with two dates in London followed by Manchester and Birmingham. The band started their Still Sucks tour in April in the US and was set to promote their latest album which was their first studio release in 10 years. This is the second time the band have been forced to abandon shows, having had their last tour disrupted by the pandemic. 

The announcement came via Instagram when the band, Fred Durst, John Otto, Sam Rivers, Wes Borland and DJ Lethal released a statement saying they “apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to our loyal fans, promoters and support staff“. This was followed by frontman, Fred Durst, posting a video explaining the situation to their fans. He revealed that he had contacted his doctor and had decided to “do some tests“ to make sure he was in “good physical condition“ before beginning the UK/EU leg of the tour.

His doctor responded via a letter informing Durst that he would not want him to be touring at this time and that the singer should “stay close by” for further tests. Durst went on to say; “This was very unexpected news and I’m so sorry. I look forward to making it up to you as soon as possible, and I can only thank you so much for your support“.

The Chocolate Starfish singer was clearly disappointed in his video to fans and promised he was already thinking of ways to “make it up” to those who had bought tickets across the UK and Europe. He appeared to be in good health and it is unclear what the tests revealed about his condition. Shortly after the video was posted to YouTube, the band updated their website with a final statement reading:

“For personal health concerns and based on medical advice given by my personal physician to take an immediate break from touring, Limp Bizkit will sadly have to postpone their 2022 Uk and European tour. We truly apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to our loyal fans, promoters and support staff. Stand by for further news. 

Sincerely, Fred & Limp Bizkit“

The band, which also consists of John Otto, Sam Rivers, Wes Borland and DJ Lethal, were touring to promote their most recent album, 2021’s Still Sucks, which was their first studio release in 10 years.

Hopefully, we’ll see them “Rollin'” into a new tour in 2023.
