Limp Bizkit, Auckland NZ, 2023

Limp Bizkit

26th november 2023 spark arena, auckland, new zealand..

Review by Sarah Kidd . Photography by Doug Peters .

Nostalgia is a powerful thing. So when it was announced that Limp Bizkit would be performing a headliner show at Spark Arena as a quick side trip from Good Things festival in Australia, those who were wise snapped up the tickets.

Those who scoffed were soon left with serious fomo when the allocation was quickly exhausted, many scrabbling on trade me and Facebook, trying to secure their place at the show.

Entering the arena, that nostalgia was clearly on display, parents with their kids in the seated area and the mosh pit a sea of mostly black shirts and varying generations from middle aged dads reliving the days on a night out through to those barely old enough to get into the clubs, all rubbing shoulders and grinning from ear to ear.

Those grins only got wider when support act Hanabie. (meaning chilly spring weather) arrived. The Japanese metalcore band may have seemed like a strange choice to some, but when they started performing it all made sense.

Formed in Tokyo in 2015, the all-female band who were high school friends combine elements of everything from hardcore punk through to hip hop and electronica. Throw in their Harajuku aesthetic and visually the band are a feast for the eyes. And then they start to play.

Hanabie are absolute creatures in their respective fields, from the terrifyingly good vocals of lead singer Yukina, who mixes clean vocals with growls that make her sound like she was recently possessed by lucifer himself, through to Matsuri on guitar and vocals, shredding the strings like an absolute pro while looking like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth.

Throw in Hettsu on bass and Chika on drums and the Japanese quartet are something else that has to be seen live to be truly appreciated; Yukina so full of energy that she almost levitated at some points as she leapt into the air, and then slammed onto her knees as she delivered yet another toe-curling growl. With a set that included tracks such as ‘Neet Game’, ‘Today’s Good Day & So Epic’ and ‘TOUSOU’ it was no wonder that the audience were soon screaming back “arigatou” (thank you) to Hanabie.

Interval time saw the mosh pit quickly turn into a giant tin of sardines as people jostled for the best spot, the camaraderie between the fans palpable, their united cry of celebration as Limp Bizkit arrived on stage to ‘Pure Imagination’ from Willy Wonka almost heart-warming. Yes, everyone in that room indeed felt like they had won the golden ticket.

“Keepin it real like a Kiwi!” lead vocalist Fred Durst declared to the crowd as Limp Bizkit wasted no time in getting straight into it with ‘Show me what you got’, Durst himself looking like a member of the Grateful Dead with a giant mop of grey curls atop his head and a Randy Savage t-shirt in psychedelic colours.

Looking across the stage and it was the most interesting collection of band members you could ever imagine; DJ Lethal perched behind a podium, looming out over the crowd, while Wes Borland, well known for his costumes sported a custom white suit covered in small pastel-coloured flowers, a hybrid helmet on his head that featured a full beard of what looked like giant teeth.

Tucked over to the right hand of the stage, drummer John Otto held down the skins beside Sam Rivers on bass.

“We are going to party like it is 1999!” Durst exclaimed as they jumped into ‘Hot Dog’ the first track of the night to get the mosh pit seriously moving; arms flailing widely as bodies crashed into each other, those down the front in the thick of it loving every second.

Pausing to address the audience properly, Durst thanked one and all for coming and choosing to spend their time with the band, before apologising for what he referred to as “the ridiculous and shitty ticket prices” to be there. Showing their appreciation by cheering as loudly as possible, Durst joked about how during the show all the beer would be free and the water only $20 a bottle. Good to see that Durst still has that dry sense of humour that shoots straight from the hip.

‘Rollin’ got the crowd singing in unison while a cover of Rage Against the Machines ‘Killing in the Name’ did much the same, a taped snippet from Pantera’s ‘Walk’ already hyping up the mosh pit earlier (thanks DJ Lethal). Durst laughing as he reminded everyone that he did say they were going to party like it was 1999.

But it was during ‘My Generation’ that really brought home the fact that whether you love em or hate em, Limp Bizkit were instrumental in making the nu metal scene what it was; their album Chocolate Starfish and The Hot Dog Flavoured Water released twenty-three years ago catapulting them into the limelight, the pure angsty feeling of the whole record still resonating with those who bought it over two decades ago and those who are only stumbling across it now.

Spotting a young fan in the front rows, sitting atop his dad’s shoulders with a sign advising that it was his first concert, Durst paused and invited him on stage. The young man by the name of Van looked nervous at first, but soon threw himself into finishing the song with Durst, the crowd ecstatic.

There was no denying that Limp Bizkit were on fire; cohesive and playing off against each other – Borland and Durst in particular leading the charge – the band were tight, each and every track delivering the goods, those down on the floor bouncing in unison. At one point Durst threw out water bottles encouraging everyone to share it around and look after each other, the crowd obviously listening to him as those who went down were scooped up and thrown back into the thick of it with smiles a mile wide.

‘Boiler’, ‘My Way’ and ‘Nookie’ left everyone breathless, Borland throwing in some tasty solos here and there while DJ Lethal ruled the decks, Durst effortlessly delivering every track. A cover of George Michaels ‘Faith’ was a welcome addition, Lethal killing it as the fans went wild during the raucous chorus.

“Tom Cruise asked us to never play this song again” Durst announced as the opening notes of ‘Take a Look Around’ fell from Borland’s guitar, the song used on the Mission Impossible 2 soundtrack still popular as all hell. Bringing the pace down for just for a moment, ‘Behind Blue Eyes’ the The Who cover used for the film Gothika saw the audience join together in song, Durst visibly impressed by the thousands of voices that sang it with the reverence it deserved.

The set had flown by in the blink of an eye, and while the fans would have been happy to have kept on going well into the night, all good things must come to an end, but if it had to end, Limp Bizkit were going to make sure it was going out on a high.

With the smell of roses still faintly wafting across the front rows, courtesy of Borland who had been tossing them out just a few minutes earlier, the opening notes of ‘Break Stuff’ featuring Borland’s signature down tuned riffs elicited howls of excitement, each and every fan giving it their all till the last precious second, the floor of Spark Arena being given the workout of its life as fans jumped in unison.

Haters may refer to them as ‘Dad Rock’, but Limp Bizkit proved emphatically last night just why they are still headlining festivals across the world; providing not only infectiously good music but songs that will give a voice to generations for years to come yet.

Spot on. Never thought I’d get to see them live. I’m 59 abd was in the pit. Reckon I was the oldest dude up there . Awesome night.

Best night all year! Amazing live set, 🙌 . Energetic and on point. Ticket prices were shifty..I’d still buy them again and again for what they brought…what an experience!

Great review, totally agree about the crowd.

They didn’t play Gold Cobra but the rest of the setlist you have is correct (not sure on order though?)

A Fkn amazing concert. Clean, invigorating, raw in all the best ways. Impressed that us kiwis turned it on one fine late-spring Sunday evening. Raged enough to be happy but just shy from becoming brutal – perfect. Bucket list ticked.

Limp Bizkit Announce Auckland Headline Show with HANABIE.

This is not a drill. Arguably THE defining group of the nu metal era, Limp Bizkit are heading to Aotearoa this November to headline Auckland's Spark Arena. Fronted by iconic lead vocalist Fred Durst , Limp Bizkit arose from Jacksonville, Florida in 1994 to conquer the world with such fury-fulled rap-metal anthems as 'Break Stuff', 'Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle)' 'Nookie' and 'Behind Blue Eyes'. Achieving over 40 million record sales for their oeuvre including Significant Other (1999), Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water (2000) and Results May Vary (2003), Limp Bizkit will be supported by Japanese metalcore / "Harajuku-core" stars HANABIE. (described by LOUDER as "the soundtrack to a neon-splattered cyberpunk videogame") for a guaranteed wild spring night out in Tāmaki Makaurau. We advise swooping on tickets when they go live next week, brought to you by Destroy All Lines and Good Vibes Promotions ...

Press release:

Breathe in, now breathe out New Zealand. The good times just keep on rollin' in 2023, and this November LIMP BIZKIT, aka one of the most defining nu metal bands of all time, are bringing the Dad Vibes and all your classic faves to Auckland's Spark Arena for a headline sideshow on Sunday 26 November with special guests HANABIE. en route to Good Things Festival in Australia.

A rare few can boast the staying power and permeating legacy of a band like LIMP BIZKIT. Forged in Florida in the mid 90s with a raucous fusion of rock, metal and hip hop, LIMP BIZKIT's staggering legacy cemented in 1997 via their innovative debut album Three Dollar Bill, Y'all, with their angsty odes and genre-blurring ultimately influencing the nu metal stampede that catapulted into the mainstream.

Now boasting six studio albums, including their #1 charting albums Significant Other (1999) and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water (2000) as well as their most recent full length Still Sucks (2021), LIMP BIZKIT have also received three Grammy Award nominations, wins at the Billboard Music Awards and Kerrang! Awards, and an induction into MTV's Total Request Live Hall of Fame in 2001. And with multiple platinum albums already under their belts and over 13 million monthly dedicated listeners on Spotify alone, LIMP BIZKIT's fanbase continues to explode globally, as do their monstrous live performances.

A band who can party like it's 1999 multiple decades on, LIMP BIZKIT's palpitating array of rock, metal, rap and beyond is as potent as ever, inciting mosh pits and rock'n'roll rebellion in a way only frontman Fred Durst and co. truly can. From their generation-defining singles like Break Stuff, Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle) and Nookie to newer cuts that keep the party vibes ferociously pumping, it's undeniable that LIMP BIZKIT as as electrifying now as they were when nu metal first reigned supreme.

Forming in 2015, Japanese metalcore outfit HANABIE. blend metal, hardcore, hip hop, electronica and J-pop with Harajuku-inspired aesthetics. Brandishing their secret weapons, pop, genre-less music and kawaii neo-Japanese style, HANABIE. also embrace tongue-in-cheek lyricism, as witnessed most recently on their 2023 album Reborn Superstar! as well as on their debut 2021 full length Girl's Reform Manifest. Previously performing at Aftershock, Louder Than Life and Blue Ridge Rock Festival, HANABIE. are a breath of sharpened fresh air in the heavy realms, and a must-see in a live setting.

The Spinoff

OPINION Pop Culture November 1, 2023

How the hell did limp bizkit sell out spark arena.

• Share Story

And does anybody have a spare ticket for one of New Zealand’s last remaining music reviewers?

This story was originally published on Chris Schulz’s Boiler Room Substack .

On Friday night, while happily enjoying Home Brew’s exuberant and alcohol-soaked Powerstation show, I had a random thought. It wasn’t a good one, but once it came to me I couldn’t shake it off.

My train of thought went like this: “ We have no music critics  …  no one else is going to do it  … wouldn’t it be funny if  I covered the Limp Bizkit show?”

I had been thinking about the American nu-metal group’s Auckland performance – at Spark Arena on November 26 – ever since I received an email containing a pre-sale link to buy tickets.

It  sent me on a wild journey looking for New Zealand’s most expensive shows . At $190, Limp Bizkit’s ticket prices were up there, much more than the $144 it cost to see them headline Storm the Gates, a 2018 West Auckland music festival that also included Sublime with Rome, Suicidal Tendancies and Hed (PE).

At that price, in 2023, I didn’t think many people would buy one. I certainly wasn’t going to. Not at that price. Not for a Limp Bizkit show. Not when there’s a cost of living crisis. Not when Fred Durst would be there.

But critics must criticise, I guess. So, after my brain snapped at Home Brew’s excellent show, I jumped online and did something I’ve never done before: I typed ‘Limp Bizkit’ into a ticket search engine. This is the page that greeted me.

It was sold out. Every single ticket has already been snapped up.

At that point, I did what everyone else who is desperately searching for sold out concert tickets does and turned to Trade Me. There, two tickets were going for  even more than what Ticketmaster was charging before the show sold out.

First of all: wow.

Limp Bizkit will head to Australia after their New Zealand show to headline the  Good Things  festival alongside Fall Out Boy and Devo. Tickets for that festival are already sold out in Brisbane, and look likely to do the same in Melbourne and Sydney.

A promoter has taken a gamble by booking Limp Bizkit for an extensive down under series of shows and it has paid off  big time .

But there still remains a level of WTF-ness to this tour that I am struggling to explain. The last time Limp Bizkit performed here, they were in the much smaller venue Trusts Arena  and  they had a full line-up of other artists on the bill.

I wasn’t there, but you can go find the reviews. Limp Bizkit were… how do I put this… awful .

“Downright sloppy,” said  The 13th Floor’s Kate Powell . “Durst attempted to turn the show into a karaoke/request evening … the sound and lighting were disorientatingly bad … the turntableist completely [drowned] everyone out … with just 9 ½ songs in 90 minutes, it was a long meandering set that lacked purpose or punch.”

Since then, it’s hard to work out what Limp Bizkit have done to push themselves into the rarefied air of a band that can sell out Spark Arena. They released a new album called Still Sucks in 2021 that caused barely a ripple. The single  ‘Dad Vibes’  didn’t cause a stir either.

Durst  refused to participate in Trainwreck , Netflix’s Woodstock ‘99 doco (I wrote about that  here and it remains Boiler Room’s most popular read). As a result, the group came across very badly. Footage of the band performing  ‘Break Stuff’ as surging crowd members do exactly that is among the doc’s most compelling moments.

Yet, despite all of that, Durst and co clearly have many fans in New Zealand, enough of them to fill Spark Arena. It’s a “free-flow” show, which means the venue won’t be at its full 12,000-seat capacity. But it will be close.

I can only put it down to this: we’re in concert cuckoo land. Everything’s been turned upside down and inside out. Nothing makes any sense at all anymore. The extraordinarily messy post-Covid concert landscape has created a marketplace where anything is possible and only an idiot (like me) would make an assumption that Limp Bizkit cannot sell out Auckland’s biggest indoor stadium with $190 tickets.

More Reading

I offer the following examples as further proof:

• Rapper 50 Cent is charging up to $424.90 to see his “final” performance at Spark Arena on December 14. Those are among  New Zealand’s most expensive concert tickets  – more than Pink and The Weeknd – yet 50 Cent is far from his prime.
• The Weeknd is so popular he gets to play  two  Eden Park shows this December. In 2017, he filled Spark Arena, but he had help from Nav and French Montana. Thus, in six years, his popularity has gone up 800%, despite The Idol .
• They have the same number of band members and will perform in the same venue, yet Limp Bizkit tickets cost $30  more than Queens of the Stone Age tickets – in my mind a far more relevant band who released one of the year’s best albums .
• We have more than 60 music festivals coming this summer. Yes: 60. Six-zero.

I reached out to Australian promoters Destroy All Lines to ask the wizard who booked Limp Bizkit to help explain the band’s popularity in 2023. In the meantime, a plea: does anyone have a spare Limp Bizkit concert ticket they’re willing to sell to me at a reasonable price?

LIMP BIZKIT TICKETS

Even though many say the Rap/Rock era of the mid to late 90’s was music of the muscle-head uncultured swine leading to believe it’s pseudo empowering awareness of a cross genre sound to really be superficial & misogynistic in it’s execution. I disagree & that is all depending on the individual. I also believe there are many musicians in that genre that haven’t gotten full credit for their musical talent.

One such band is Limp Bizkit. I had the pleasure to see them again in Saarbrücken on 13th of July. I saw them before in Frankfurt a few months ago & had such a great time that I couldn’t resist to see them again in an open air venue.

The weather brought an extra bonus to what was already to a fun & exciting event. They played the notable favorite songs in their catalog & as well as a brand new song from the upcoming album.

Their fan/audience interaction is nothing short but icing on the cake. Bringing on stage a young fan to experience a once in a life time up close & personal moment & to have another fan take the mic & letting him sing lead vocals on a song.

All this including a stellar performance. If you had to force me at gun point to try to find a flaw in the show. I would have to say I wish they would play some songs from their over looked album ‘The Unquestionable Truth’ I would of die if they played the song ‘The Story’ (in my opinion their best album. I recommend to give it a listen to if your a fan of Nu-Metal).

So even if your a So-So fan of Limp Bizkit check them out live you’ll enjoy it & if you are a fan & haven’t seen them at all I say “What the F**k is wrong with you, they kick ass live”. Nuff said m

I missed the concert because I thought it was on Friday instead of Thursday. At least I had a great sex night so fuck yes. Thanks for the show, 10/10 would go again.
