Watch Limp Bizkit perform ‘Clunk’ for the first time in 14 years
Limp Bizkit performed their track ‘Clunk’ live for the first time in 14 years recently – check out the footage below.
The song appears on Fred Durst and co’s debut studio album ‘Three Dollar Bill, Y’all’, which was released in 1997. During a live show in Ridgefield, Washington last Wednesday (August 21), the nu-metal band brought the track back to the set – marking its first full outing since 1998.
But according to Revolver, Limp Bizkit did air a partial rendition of ‘Clunk’ at a concert in the Netherlands in 2010.
“Are we really playing this motherfucker?” said frontman Durst during the track’s breakdown at the RV Inn Style Resorts Amphitheater last week. Earlier, the vocalist told his bandmates: “No way! We’re gonna do this one? Oh my God.”
Footage has also emerged of the group rehearsing ‘Clunk’ in soundcheck. You can see the videos here:

Limp Bizkit wrapped up their 2024 North American ‘Loserville’ tour in San Bernardino, California last Saturday (August 24). Other gigs recently took place in Concord and West Valley City.
Supporting the band at the dates was actor Corey Feldman (The Goonies, Gremlins, The Lost Boys), who was at the centre of speculation around his unconventional and rudimentary guitar playing.
With some fans believing that Feldman was faking his axe-shredding, Durst confirmed that the actor was playing guitar for real earlier this month – when he took a seat next to him during the opening slot.
Feldman subsequently called himself the “king of trolls” when appearing on a recent episode of the X5 Podcast (via Loudwire).
In June, Download Festival boss Andy Copping suggested that Limp Bizkit should headline the event in the future. The band sub-headlined the final day of the 2024 edition ahead of Avenged Sevenfold‘s closing performance.
