Limp Bizkity Contribution: The heart of the band! and the geetarz
Band Stuff!
Wes got his contacts custom made by the makers of Babylon 5, they cost $400 per pair. He says that they are "mostly for Limp Bizkit" and that when he works with other bands or projects, they come right out. (aww but they are so you Wes!) P.S. I found some online for $300 a pair
While in Limp Bizkit, Wes was sending out his portfolio to art institutes, planning on leaving the band, (*Gasp!*) for an art type job. (He wanted to possibly make masks for horror films.)
Before Wes joined Limp Bizkit, he used to be in a 3-piece called Kr? with his younger brother Scott. Wes used to do the 2-handed tapping technique while Scott played bass
Right before Limp Bizkit was going to be signed to Flip/Interscope, Wes was kicked out of the band. Then, while the band had 2 guitarists to take Wes' place, the band got into a very bad bus accident. Fred took this as a sign to bring Wes back.
Used to dress in drag when the band first started out. He wanted to look like a girl trying to act tough
Wes doesn't think he works well with other guitar players or bass players. The only bassists he's ever worked with are Sam Rivers and his brother.
Joined Limp Bizkit when he was 18. He met John Otto at a coffee shop he used to work at when they were in two rival bands (oohhh) and after meeting Sam and Fred, Wes decided to join, thus creating our lovely boyz of Limp Bizkit.
Family Stuff!
Wes' parents name are Tom and Sally. Making the Borland family Tom, Sally, Wes, and Scott.
His brother, Scott, used to play keyboards for Limp Bizkit and Vanilla Ice ( hmmm)
His dad is a Presbyterian minister
His brother, Scott, was born on February 14th, 1979, making him 21
Stuff about his wife!
Married his long-time girlfriend, Heather McMillen, on April 10th, 1998.
Heather is currently going for her real estate liscence.
Completely devoted to his wife, and states, "totally in love with her." :) Lucky girl
Wes' honeymoon consisted of taking her to theme parks across the country, but after a few days, they got bored and went home.
Talks to his wife for hours each night.
Thanks to all you peeps that helped me with this! Especially Jinx! Luv ya G-dawg! |
