Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff live in sydney bdo 2001

Great live performance of Limp Bizkit in 2001. Break stuff.

[@davidnissim9203]

Limp Bizkit should play the Super Bowl because to be honest, nobody gets a crowd going like they can.

[@deangelobayley7079]

In 2001 yeah. Now? Probably not.

[@jhonnycagexrage7458]

Yeah, that was in 2001, nowadays nobody would do it, first of all because nobody have the balls to do it and people is distracted with their fucking phones like retards, and second, because Limp Bizkit it's not that popular anymore and they are now nothing more than some old dudes doing their best, nothing lasts forever you know

[@warwickjay3907]

Yeah it kinda ruined festivals for me - at the time I figured this is what they must be like. This was the first thing I ever saw as a 13 yo kid, QOTSA, At the Drive In, Rammstein then Limp Bizkit. I've never been as excited at any gig since then.

[@tomrichnafsky3089]

Man Fred Durst can fire up a crowd like no other

[@magikhead8055]

Otto's beat allows you to release all your anger in a violent and musical ritual. I love LB and i also understand those who hate them , but they were right there. when people wanted to express all that energy anger and wanted to have extreme fun. Its just one of those days......

[@TheOfficerMahoney]

Otto is such an under-rated drummer. It happens when you are in a band that is branded as shit, then you don't get the kudos you deserve as a player Otto and Sam are brilliant at their instruments, world-class masters of groove.

[@P4TzY]

i can feel the energy of that concert when i watch this video

[@ChuckaChoong]

I was almost at the front of the mosh during that fateful concert right in the thick of it, and to those that think slam dancing or moshing had anything to do with this death is a load of bullshit. For those of you that have been in the front of a really heavy mosh such as this was, you would know that there is barely enough room to move your arms up, let alone control where you are going. I am solid guy over 6ft 2 ex rugby player and I would have to say this was the heaviest & scariest mosh I had ever been in. From the moment the guys came on stage, if you could imagine a football field filled with people to capacity all surging forward with the first 20 rows or so of people taking the full brunt of the force then this is what it was like. You can't control where you go in a crowd that large, you basically go with the flow - being pushed from side to side or forward and back and so forth. To make matters worse there were kids that I could see as young as 12 or 13 years old or so getting crushed in this mosh not to mention loads of girls. I'm not saying anyone expected the mosh to go this crazy - usually this is limited to the first 20 rows or so starting this kind of thing, but this time it was literally the whole field of people. I must have pulled at least a dozen young kids or girls out of the mosh that day - most of their heads barely reaching my chest and I could see the pain in their faces to this day of either not being able to breath properly or they were simply getting crushed. Most of them I tried shielding myself around them to stop them from getting crushed, some I lifted over the crowd so they could surf to safety. There was something in the air that night, there was alot of anger being released and you could almost sense something significant was about to happen even before the first notes rang out. There was just this expectation this was going to be once angry set, which it was. I think a few words were said before they played this song, something about trying to get the crowd to settle down a bit, and I am not saying anyone was to blame, but they basically turned around and played one of their angriest songs right after this. I was saddened to hear later about what happened but it really didn't surprise me. Alot has changed since then like the introduction of the D barrier, but even still, you never know what can happen when thousands of people mass together to form a giant wave. Moshers - be safe and always lookout for one another (which we always tend to do anyway - give or take the odd boot in the head!), and guys, girls, little people - please think twice about getting amongst it in huge crowds, you may think it's fun at first - but things can get pretty heavy very quickly out there like in a rough sea, and sometimes people don't always see or hear you if you are crying for help!! In memory of Jessica RIP little mosher girl!!!

[@patstevo]

I was around 3 people from the front in sydney man, 16 year old me, it was so insane I could only last a few songs till I had to bail, such an intense experience!

[@PanasonicTooth]

+Chukka Choong Man I was 13 at the time so I was tiny and at the melb bdo so there was no limp to my utter disappoinment. But I remember 28 days opened the day and I was at the front for that mosh. As small as it was in comparison to the massive ones, I felt like I was gonna die and possibly could have had I not escaped halfway. The 40 degree heat plus body crush was just mental. Not to mention the heat of the bodies and lack of air when everyone's taller than you. Also when you're up front and the crowd is that tight it's fucking hard to get out! I didn't go right up the front again until Slipknot years later. As crazy as that was I didn't feel like my life was in danger. The D barrier was to thank for that I guess. Dickheads should have employed it years ago though.

[@dennisferguson1029]

Yeah i was up near the front off to the left,one of the most intense moshpits I've been in,was unfortunate what happened to the young girl

[@AntidoteHipHopBeats]

There's a 12 minute audio clip on KZbin of Limp Bizkit performing Break Stuff and My Generation at BDO 2001. I've had that clip on my computer for years. In that audio clip, there's a long break between the 2 songs because somebody (I suppose the stage manager) took over Durst his microphone and asked the crowd to mellow out, and after that you can actually hear Durst saying things like "mellow out", "get everybody out of the crowd" and "if you see someone fall down, pick 'em up, okay?". There's not a single moment in that 12 minute clip where he says something negative about security.

[@AntidoteHipHopBeats]

[@massivethrobbingmast]

Fuck me. There's a cumulative effect here, though. The band was in it's zenith in 2001. Now they've ALWAYS written angry music, and they have (post 1999) usually always ended a set with Break Stuff. The thousands of fans flocking to see the biggest band in the world (at that time), the heat, the anger; somethings going to happen. It's such a shame that the worst thing did happen. It brings to mind the Rolling Stones Altamont concert. People who organise such events simply cannot legislate for a combination of factors such as this. People are so repressed that given an opportunity, they're gonna fucking unleash their anger. And when that's shared with 10,000 other people, it's scary. If Fred Durst has witnessed what the other fella has mentioned below, then he should have stopped. Absolutely. I went to Chilli Peppers gig in Manchester. The fucking RHCP. Not heavy or aggressive music at all, but people had been boozing all day, it was summer and the front of THAT gig was horrible. I saw a blokes leg get completely snapped, people passing out, fighting. It ended up a horrible mess. Are they cramming too many people in the "mosh pits"? Maybe so. I went to a LB only last year, and it was fucking intense. But not like this. Bless the kids in that pit looking for a good time. It offers some perspective.

[@bent718]

it isnt about cramming too many people into the pit area.. the entire main stage field was full, anywhere between 10-15k people, ALL moshing and surging. you cant really account for something like that in a safety brief. having said that though, they obviously did no research on limp bizkits live set beforehand, or at least put the D barricade in, BDO organisers were definitely to blame

Till today we have no idea what happened, but it was scary as fuck. When the crowd's outta control, you just gotta pray to God and go with the flow.
