Even though the band promised a full reunion, with a new album included, Wes tells us not to hold our breath :
""Guitarist Wes Borland has a message for LIMP BIZKIT fans who are hoping to see a new studio album from the band's original lineup: don't hold your breath.
Fred Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto and DJ Lethal announced yesterday (Thursday, February 12) via a press release that they were reuniting for a tour and new CD. But according to Borland - who is currently on the road with his new band, BLACK LIGHT BURNS - things are far from set in stone at this point.
Speaking to Bob Suehs of Rock N Roll Experience following BLACK LIGHT BURNS' February 12 performance in Towson, Maryland, Wes said about his involvement with the reunited LIMP BIZKIT, "I'm only doing the overseas shows with them as of right now, and as far as the new record, with those guys, don't believe it until you see it. As of right now, there's nothing happening; I'm only doing the shows overseas with them and we'll see what happens." Borland also confirmed that he is no longer a member of MARILYN MANSON's touring band after hooking up with the shock rocker for a couple of shows late last year. "[Wes] said that he was in the studio and did three or four songs with Marilyn Manson and Twiggy [Ramirez, bass], that it's some of the best music that he's ever heard in his entire life and that the new Marilyn Manson material is way better than the last record ('Eat Me, Drink Me')," Suehs writes on his web site. "When I asked him for an explanation as to what happened, he simply said that story was too long to get into right now."
The original lineup of LIMP BIZKIT was last active in the fall of 2001, after which Borland left the band to focus on his own music. Borland rejoined for the 2005 EP "The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1)", but left again shortly thereafter.
LIMP BIZKIT was one of the most popular rock bands in the world in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Its first three albums have sold in excess of 20 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan."

But then on Wes' official Twitter, he said :
"Blabbermouth, sorry, but that's incorrect. Bizkit tour and new album"
Then our forum user Hench e-mailed the author of the article, and here's the reply he got :
"ok, allow me to clarify something here:
I have NOTHING to gain by shit talking the Limp Bizkit reunion tour....my piece was on Black Light Burns/Combichrist/Acey Slade & the little remarks Wes made were the icing on the cake.
Wes said those exact words last night....I thought I made the piece clear, where I pulled the quotes about not liking Fred, etc., that was from last year...the comments about not being in Manson, how he was only doing a tour, how there was no new album as of right now that it was just about the tour...that was from 2/12/09 & he said it face to face with me, NO bullshit, if Wes disputes it, tell him to contact me direct & look, I have NOTHING to gain from posting a review that's not true...if I were going to make up stuff I'd say something like, "yeah, Wes told me that he had a gay love affair with Twiggy & that he cut off his dick onstage & tossed it into the crowd before re-attatching it with a sewing needle"....I could make up better stories than Wes said there's no new album that he's just doing the tour....my question is, is it really Wes who disputed me online & if so, was he pressured from management or Fred to say that, because let's face it, the ONLY reason Limp Bizkit is doing a reunion is for $$$, Wes has stated over & over that he wasn't happy in Limp Bizkit....so to clarify once & for all, the first part (where I have the obvious interview lay out) was a quick pull from my interview last year, then the 2nd part was direct from Wes' mouth on 2/12/09 & again, I use my real name on my stuff, EVERYTHING on Rock N Roll Experience is done by me, there's no outside people, I do everything on there myself, I stake my name on everything I do & I'm known for my doing pieces that sum up a show, an evening, & an interview as it happened, blow by blow.
if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask & if Wes disputes me, tell him to contact me direct...I do this for the love of the music, I love hard rock, heavy metal & music in general...I cover bands I like, I don't get paid to do this so I don't have to cover bands I don't like, I do this to promote the bands, promote the music & to try to keep it all alive."
