> 07.20.01 Durst May Work With Fincher On Mob Film . . .
 

Fred Durst may prefer "Wanna-Be" to "Runt."

No, they aren't nicknames — they're the films vying with "Life Without Joe" to be the Limp Bizkit singer's big-screen directorial debut.

Durst, who has directed music videos for Bizkit and Korn, has committed in the past to "Runt" and "Life Without Joe," though he did not say which he would do first.

Now Variety has him linked to "Wanna-Be," a fictional children-of-the-mob drama written by late Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper columnist Mike McAlary.

The movie trade magazine reported that Durst would work on the film with his directing mentor David Fincher ("Fight Club"), similar to his plans for "Runt." Actors Paul Walker ("The Fast and the Furious") and Scott Caan ("Boiler Room") are in negotiations to star in the $30 million film.

"Wanna-Be" may begin shooting in October, according to Variety. Durst said earlier this year he would begin "Runt" or "Life Without Joe" in the fall (see "Dispatch From Durstland: Puddle Of Mudd Vid, 'Movie Thing' Imminent").

Spokespeople for Durst did not return phone calls.

> 07.19.01 Aussie Police To Question Limp Bizkit Over Fan Death . . .
 

Limp Bizkit are being interviewed this week, but not by the press frontman Fred Durst has sworn off in his recent Web site postings.

Australian police are in the U.S. to question the band and their management about the death of the 15-year-old girl who was crushed at a Sydney concert in January, according to Reuters.

A police spokesperson told the news organization on Thursday (July 19) that two officers flew to Los Angeles as part of a coroner's investigation into the death of Jessica Michalik, who suffered a heart attack in the mosh pit at Sydney's annual Big Day Out festival.

Limp Bizkit pulled out of their headlining slot for the remaining Big Day Out shows in Australia after the melee in Sydney, and accused the promoters of ignoring the band's safety concerns.

> 06.26.01 Dispatch From Durstland: Puddle Of Mudd Vid, 'Movie Thing' Imminent . . .
 

Fred Durst, recovering from a back injury that forced Limp Bizkit to cancel the last five dates of their European tour, has announced his "to do" list on the band's official Web site, www.limpbizkit.com.

While apologizing to his overseas fans for the unexpected cancellations (see "Fred Durst's Aching Back Shuts Down Bizkit Tour"), Durst said that he's preparing to direct Puddle of Mudd's new video in Florida. The clip will be for "Control," the first single off the band's album Come Clean, scheduled for an August 14 release, according to an Interscope Records spokesperson.

Puddle of Mudd, along with Kenna, are the latest signings to Durst's Flawless Records imprint. The band is currently on the road with fellow Durst discoveries Staind and Cold.

Durst also said that his "movie thing" is imminent, though he doesn't specify which of the two films he's set to direct will take priority. Both "Runt," a flick focusing on a high school outcast, and the horror movie "Life Without Joe" are on the Bizkit frontman's agenda (see "Durst Says Time Is Right For His Movie About School Outcast" and "Durst To Direct Teen Thriller 'Life Without Joe' "), though his label rep couldn't say which he'll tackle first.

Limp Bizkit will begin pre-production on their as-yet-untitled fourth album in August.

> 06.22.01 "Pain in the Bizkit" . . .
 

Fred's back injury stops 'ur a peehin tour' dead in tracks (june 20th) limp bizkit front man Fred Durst has suffered a severe back injury, which has pre-maturely ended the bands tour of Europe. Described as a 'stress fracture', Durst was advised by doctors to take a manditory 2 week rest period from all phyiscal happenings, in order for the injured part of his back to heal. No one is postive of what exactly caused the injury, but we can only imagine that it is just a injury do to months upon months of touring and heavy activity on his back and whole body. We havent had a chance to speak with Fred himself, but a source close to him reports to us that he is resting at his mother Anita's Jacksonville home.
