    Bill Maher and Fred Durst on: the truth behind the founding of Limp Bizkit, how Fred became an accidental rock star, the great irony of Fred’s bullies being his biggest fans, Fred’s theory on getting energy from a space vacuum, whether or not spirituality makes you live longer, the time Mick Jagger picked up a girl with just a look, and the very definition of hypocrisy.

    Fred is a master troller - to the point it's difficult to tell if he's being sarcastic or not He's also extremely good at shifting the subject / pushing back the question to the interview if he's not comfortable answering the question. It get's a little annoying about 40 minutes into the interview but fair play to him for not being drawn re: a question he doesn't want to answer.

    In the late 90’s I meet Fred Durst hear in Milwaukee several times. First time was when I snuck into the Warped tour early... like 9am and just starting helping people set up the venue. Fred walked up behind me ( I saw LB open for Korn so I was already a big fan) and I confessed I had snuck in. He said “well your in now” he hung with me for a little while then he slowly got back to his work. For the next couple of years I would sneak in early, or meet them when their bus would arrive in town. One time I gave Fred, Sam, and John I ride from one venue over to another venue in Milwaukee ( from Modjeska theatre to the rave) to go and confront the guys in coal chamber (who were opening for machine head at the rave bar) on our way to the coal chamber bud we bumped into Blink 182 who were still touring in a white econoline van. After that we got Fred and crew back to the modjeska for their show where Fred had put me and my friends on the “guest list”. When I went to get into the venue I had Logan from Machine head next to me who wasn’t on the guest list and couldn’t get in. I went in, stopped Fred after a song and said “Logan from Machine head is out front he can’t get in. Fred called him in on the mic!!! Hahaha so awesome. Later that night all the guys from LB came back to the rave to watch Machine head play. It was fuxking awesome!!!! Over the years I had gotten to see them once or twice more but they played bigger venues so it was hard to “sneak in” and hang with them.
    Anyways thanks Fred, that was a really cool thing to experience as a 19 year old fan back then. Glad you’re doing well, the new music is great. If you ever come to Milwaukee again I’ll try to sneak in and say hi hahahaha 🤙🤙🤙 oh and all the guys in LB signed the backs of the seats in my car. Fred wrote “Fred smells like yeast” as he had wondered what the smell was coming from the breweries. Dj lethal tagged his name with an anarchy A. So many people would ask to see my seats. Hahahaha

John Otto has some sick beats, Sam Rivers is one of the best bassists ive seen, Dj Lethal has some sick additions, Fred has a uniquely great voice and lyricist, and then there's Wes who is also one of the best guitarists out there.

    I used to share a band space with Fred in Jacksonville way back in the day just before Limp Biskit. It was an office space that let bands practice there to keep people from breaking in the place at night. He used to have a band called 10 foot shindig then. He and I used to hang out and listen to each other practice with my band Curse Icon. He was always super cool to me. We had a blast back then playing parties and sh*t clubs together. I remember one time we walked into a club that didn't have anything together for The Who and our band and Fred's back picked up everything, went to another club and asked if we could play and had an impromptu show there. So much fun.

      In Buddhism, suffering is attributed to our being delusional and ignorant about the nature of reality. One of the most prominent delusions that we have is that things won't change, and so when we have a nice situation we cling onto it and try to keep it nice, and then freak out when it begins to change. Relationships are a good example of this. But if we understood reality, i.e. that things change all of the time, then we'd be at peace as things change and not lose our happiness. So, yes, I agree... we suffer because how we think does not correspond to how things are.

    So cool to see Fred Durst again, his music was such an ode to the time, and he seems like a completely down to earth guy

      True. True. Not many albums have the ability to transport me back to a time in my life like Significant Other does.

    I will always love Limp. They never took themselves too seriously. They never expected anyone else to either. It just fun feel good music that you memorize the words to. Ive been watching a lot of Limps recent tour videos. They might be making a come back
