Limp Bizkit to get new Anger Management support
The second North American leg of the Limp Bizkit -led Anger Management tour will get underway in late November with a revamped line-up. Eminem , Papa Roach and Xzibit will drop off the tour, and in their place will be DMX , Godsmack , and Sinisstar.
According to the latest itinerary from tour sources, the last show featuring Eminem, Papa Roach and Xzibit will take place in Anaheim, Calif., on Nov. 21. The second leg of the tour, featuring the new line-up, is set to open on Nov. 26 in San Diego.
In January, Limp Bizkit will tour Japan, then New Zealand and Australia.
Though Limp Bizkit is headlining the Anger Management tour, controversial rapper Eminem has been grabbing most of the headlines of late. Ontario Attorney General Jim Flaherty--at the request Canadian media anti-violence campaigner Valerie Smith--tried to bar Eminem from entering Canada prior to the Anger Management stop in Toronto on Thursday (10/26).
The country’s immigration department allowed him into the country, however, because Eminem hadn’t committed a crime.
"If all people who made bad music were kept out of Canada, we could have stopped disco," Immigration department spokesman Derik Hodgson told the Canadian Press.
Police told the Toronto Star that Eminem’s lyrics didn’t amount to a criminal offense. "Although (the lyrics) can be viewed as offensive, certainly to women, they don't constitute hate propaganda under the Criminal Code," Detective Rob Cooper told the newspaper.
True to form, Eminem reportedly opened his Toronto set by dedicating the "Kill You"--a song cited in the complaints against him for its lyrical references to violence against women--to "that b---- Valerie Smith."
