Fans who attended a Chicago-area Limp Bizkit concert in July have filed a class-action lawsuit against vocalist Fred Durst and the band's corporation, claiming that they were short-changed when Durst ended the band's performance after less than 20 minutes.
The suit claims Limp Bizkit was contracted to play for 90 minutes at the Summer Sanitarium tour, and seeks a $25 refund for each of the approximately 40,000 fans that attended the show.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Durst was pelted with debris and subjected to a chorus of boos and chants during the performance. He stormed off the stage after reportedly fanning the flames by "encouraging the catcalls and flying trash, then swerving into a bizarre tirade against the crowd and city."
Blue Man Group issues its first concert DVD, dubbed "The Complex Rock Tour Live," on Nov. 25. The disc features 90 minutes of performance footage that was culled from the group's Aug. 13 and 14 performances at NextStage in Grand Prairie, TX.
The DVD also features music videos, interviews and a three-song surround-sound sampler of the group's "The Complex" album.
