"Oh, that's a long story. I'll try to make it short. It all happened at the New York K-Rock life show and, personally, I think it's quite a funny story and Durst is a complete psycho who fancies himself too much.
Anyway, Kid Rock was supposed to open for us and this, well, Fred Durst was presenting, as some sort of conferencer or something. Unfortunately, nobody told us. Also, nobody bothered telling us that Kid Rock picked up two strippers along the way, and that he had his rapping midget Joe C and pony with him on stage.
It was unbelievable. Even the pony had its own dressing room. Honestly, we thought they were taking the piss. I mean who wants to go on stage after a rapping dwarf, something with hooves and a couple of strippers - especially in front of a bunch of homophobic Americans?
Then Durst strolled on stage to announce out, really made a great entrance and our tour manager lost it and yelled, "Who the fuck are you?" Poor Freddy didn't find it particularly funny and after our gig he freaked out completely. He started yelling and insulted us in front of everybody, the psycho. From there on it somehow escalated a bit, ha ha."
