Limp Bizkit is a nu-metal group characterized by front-man Fred Durst’s angry vocal delivery and Borland’s sonic experimentation. The band have been around for a very long time and their music has defined an entire generation of fans, especially during the 90s. Limp Bizkit’s upcoming Still Sucks tour stop in the U.K. and Europe won’t happen as planned.

The Still Sucks tour’s U.K. and European legs were supposed to start in September. Following worries about the health of front-man Fred Durst, the band decided to cancel the remaining gigs on Sunday. The band took to social media to make the unexpected announcement.

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 apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to our loyal fans, promoters and support staff. Stand by for further news. Sincerely, Fred & Limp Bizkit.

Rolling Stone’s request for response was not immediately answered by Limp Bizkit’s representatives. The vocalist released a personal video on the band’s website where he claimed that he went to the doctor before the next leg of the tour to “make sure I’m in good physical conditions,” despite the band not disclosing any specifics of Durst’s health issues.

But after having a number of tests, Durst’s physician expressed concern about his health and suggested that he halt touring so that he could undergo additional testing. The tour began earlier this year in April with a schedule of North American performances in promotion of Limp Bizkit’s sixth studio album, Still Sucks. We pray that Fred gets well soon.
