Limp Bizkit cancels remainder of Euro tour

(Launch) - Limp Bizkit has opted to cancel the remainder of its European tour after singer Fred Durst injured his back. Shows in Germany, Switzerland, the U.K. and Ireland have all been scrapped. A statement by the band read, "Durst has suffered an increasingly painful and distressing back injury. After consultation with a number of doctors over the past 10 days, he was told that a 'mandatory' rest period of at least two weeks was needed from all physical activities to allow the injury, identified by MRI as a 'stress fracture to the fifth lumbar vertebrae,' to begin to heal. He will then undergo a period of gradual recovery and physical rehabilitation." The shows are not likely to be rescheduled "due to prior commitments and scheduling problems."
