Limp Bizkit

It was a local festival Pukkelpop in the year 2000. First of all, if you see the line-up, you’ll never get these artists together nowadays. But it was day 2 and Limp Bizkit was preparing everyone for Cypress Hill. Only Limp Bizkit was so energetic and got the whole crowd in that same energy. By the time it was Cypress Hills turn, the crowd had to decompress. Cypress Hill didn’t get the crowd in the right atmosphere until they said ‘Limp Bizkit were amazing!’ and the crowd cheered ‘Yeah!’ and Cypress Hills from that moment on got the crowd going.

Thanks for this extensive explanation. I’ll be on a holiday in the USA with my family this summer. And kind of on a road trip between Washington and New York and back. With all the rights that I have … when asked for my ID … aren’t you just going to advise me to … … ?

I know I posted this at the ‘the police problem’ community. But I thought that when pulled over by the police, giving your drivers licence, to show you’re allowed to drive, doesn’t do any harm. It’s common practice in Belgium to check if all your ‘papers’ are in order. And if so, you’re back on your way.

I don’t think of the Belgian police as being dangerous. But possibly because of the difference in amount of police officers (it seems to be 13.000 in Belgium, 900.000 in USA) you can report on more wrongdoings in the USA than in Belgium, but overall (per capita) the relative amount of incidents could compare? It can come over as naive but I just couldn’t understand what could go wrong by showing your ID.

Thanks for the warning 🙂 Sometimes I still think I have as much spare time as 10 years ago 😉

Wasn’t the penalty for not going ahead with the purchase 1 billion dollars? That seems to have been the better deal after all?
