Fred Durst to Lil Wayne: Let's Start a "Gathering" for Artists "Uninvited" by Coachella & Grammys
"Let's start our own experience gathering and our own acknowledgment event to welcome all of the uninvited - i've got a couple ideas i've been working on for quite some while now - happy to elaborate if ever interested - sending good vibes."
"The initial wave of nu-metal acts were often left out of bigger festivals, leading to the founding of such tour packages as Korn's Family Values."
"Ozzfest was famously founded by Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne after they were told by Lollapalooza organizers that Ozzy was no longer relevant."
"Bizkit's own Loserville tour bills over the past few years have highlighted much-maligned artists like Corey Feldman and Riff Raff."
Fred Durst announced plans to establish a gathering for artists frequently excluded from mainstream festivals and awards. This initiative was inspired by rapper Lil Wayne's sentiments about feeling uninvited to major events like Coachella and the Grammys. Durst expressed his willingness to elaborate on his ideas for this acknowledgment event. Historically, similar gatherings have emerged in response to the exclusion of certain music genres from larger festivals, with Durst himself having previously supported overlooked artists through his own tours.
