Is This Anything?

The Hammer and Nigel present...

**Nigel** (0:06)
It depends upon what the meaning of the word is.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:09)
Yes.

**Hammer** (0:11)
Is this anything?

**SPEAKER_3** (0:13)
All right, let's rock and roll.

Hammer, we're brought to you by Indiana Unclaimed, a program presented by the Attorney General's Office here in Indiana, reuniting Hoosiers with over $1 million in unclaimed property every single week. Fast, easy and free. You got to search it up, though. Indiana unclaimed dot gov.

So, Nodge, back when you were on the Rocks station, how many times per hour did you play Limp Bizkit?

**Hammer** (0:39)
Oh, my God, like X103 every hour on the hour. They were multiple. They had multiple hits at multiple times. Like Nookie, I think Faith, their George Michael version came out before Nookie. So that, I mean, all the time, all the time.

**Nigel** (0:59)
A lot of hits from Rowan to all that kind of stuff.

**Hammer** (1:02)
The Break Stuff.

**Nigel** (1:04)
So Carrie Underwood, American Idol winner, one of the biggest names in country music.
She was at a concert this past weekend, and she does fun cover songs at concerts. She does like Guns N Roses and some other rock songs. But she put on a red baseball hat backwards and performed Limp Bizkit's Break Stuff, but she kept it clean. She didn't say the swear words. Take a listen.

**Hammer** (2:04)
Ah, it seemed like the crowd was into it. I think that was in Iowa. Yeah, you mentioned the red backwards hat that's a la Fred Durst, the lead singer of Limp Bizkit. That's his signature hat that he wears.
I guess if the crowd was into it, could you, how many Carrie Underwood fans bought a ticket to that, knowing or understanding or who, having an idea of the song Break Stuff from the early 2000s?

**Nigel** (2:37)
That's a good question. That's a good question, because I think when she does cover songs of like Guns N Roses, people know those songs, Guns N Roses was just everywhere. Limp Bizkit, while popular, they weren't Guns N Roses popular.

**Hammer** (2:55)
No, they weren't, but they were huge. And they still, in some places, they still play concerts that sell out with, I don't want to say hundreds of thousands of people. That's ridiculous.

**Nigel** (3:06)
All divorced dads in the local area show up in numbers.

**Hammer** (3:11)
I don't know, I watched the footage and I wasn't mad at her. Boy, she's got some legs on her.

**Nigel** (3:17)
I posted a photo on our Twitter of Carrie Underwood wearing the hat side by side with Fred Durst. Carrie Underwood could have a sombrero on like Turd Ferguson and would still be insanely hot.
There's not an inch of Carrie Underwood's body that is not hot, even when she's got like a red baseball hat on backwards.

**Hammer** (3:41)
She's so toned. I just don't know if that resonated or not, especially leaving out. Look, she goes out and sings gospel and stuff like that. But but leaving out the.
Curse words and stuff, which are the main points of inflection on those Limp Bizkit song.

**Nigel** (4:01)
It's an angry song. It's about breaking stuff. The name of the song is Break Stuff.
And if anybody watched that documentary about the Woodstock concert that they put on and what was the late 90s?

**Hammer** (4:16)
Ninety nine, I think. Yeah.

**Nigel** (4:18)
Oh, when the stage was falling apart and the crowd was getting angry and everything was really expensive and everybody was hot, they told Fred Durst and Limp Bizkit, Hey, I need you guys to go out there and calm people down and take it easy.

**Hammer** (4:33)
Yeah.

**Nigel** (4:34)
And they went out and perform Break Stuff.

**Hammer** (4:38)
Well, I mean, like, like in XFest, they performed on the second stage when I worked at X103, one of the festivals, the main, a huge festival for decades that X103 put on. And I introduced Fred Durst and Limp Bizkit on the, quote unquote, second stage before any of the Nookie or Break Stuff came out. And Faith was the only song that anybody knew them for.
They came out and busted up the entire second stage, like all that stuff, all the equipment, all the speakers, all the sound equipment was rented. They busted it up. And so bands couldn't perform. They didn't get paid. They had to call me the next week, like the record company. I remember this at night. I was doing, you know, six to ten. Like Fred Durst had to call and apologize.
It was all weird. I've got it somewhere.
