It appears that Limp Bizkit have decided to get rid of their DJ Lethal, as he is to play no part in their up and coming summer tour.
The DJ had already previously been fired from Limp Bizkit after lead singer Fred Durst became unhappy with his 'hardcore partying habits'. However, they eventually forgave him and he rejoined the band last year.
But it now seems the hardcore rap-metal band have had enough, and kicked him off the tour. They even went to the bother of changing the original tour poster so that Lethal's image was removed from it.
Lethal expressed his disappointment with a tweet that read-
“Pretty bummed out. Was looking forward to going back out on the road and rockin out. It wasn’t my decision. I’m open. Imagine twice. Smh.”

"Thing I’m addicted to is making music. Having a few parties on tour doesn’t mean I’m an addict... If those things were true wouldn’t a friend try to help? How is pushing away going to help anything? If it was me I would help."
Lethal also told gossip website TMZ-

Speaking to Billboard ahead of the December release of Korn's crossover album The Path of Totality, lead singer Johnathan Davis appeared only too eager to boldly announce that "We were dubstep before there was dubstep. Tempos at 140 with half-time drums, huge bassed-out riffs. We used to bring out 120 subwoofers and line them across the whole front of the stage, 60 subs per side. We were all about the bass."
He was also quick to praise the band's younger fans for not only accepting the group's new direction but for respecting dubstep as a whole.
“These kids are onto something completely innovative and new,” he said. “It’s pure and awesome and underground and heavy and different, not like stale-ass metal and rock’n'roll. I love them all, but the old-school metalheads are not open to change.”
He added: “It’s really cool to see glow sticks at the show, to see dance music culture infiltrating and becoming one with the m ... more
Drowning Pool have parted ways with vocalist Ryan McCombs.
The band, who has worked with 3 singers in their 10 year career, issued the following statement: “We have always been a band who has gained success despite having multiple singers...maybe we suffer from reverse ‘lead singer’s disease. Changing things up has not always been easy, but the band has become re-energized time and time again. We are looking to find a new singer who will give both us, and most importantly our fans, the new adrenaline shot they deserve. We do still wish Ryan great success in his future endeavors.”
McCombs had been part of the band since 2006, when he replaced then-current singer Jason Jones, who joined Drowning Pool following the tragic passing of Dave Williams.
