DJ Lethal broke from Limp Bizkit and left a trail of angry Tweets this weekend.
“I’m nobody’s DJ. I am me. I’m no kiss ass. I would rather die than be a slave!! Respect that!! I respect that, but it’s not a democracy. Don’t believe the hype. It’s one man. The rest follow like sellout money-hungry slaves,” said Lethal in a series of Tweets over the weekend.
“Personally I’ve been degraded and disrespected big time. It’s personal now. I tried to lay low, but the MAN with self-respect and dignity could hold back!! Call it childish or immature. Through thknthn. I’m really sorry mostly to the fans because one man is a tyrant control freak. #Napoleon!!”
@dascud I'm nobody's dj. I am me. I'm no kiss ass. I would rather die than be a slave !! Respect that!!

DJ Lethal (@djlethal) May 27, 2012Who will take over for Lethal?
KROQ listener Jason from Placentia will be presenting Rise Against
“Damn I’m excited as hell bro!!!!!”
That’s the response we got when we spoke with KROQ listener Jason from Placentia, who won last week’s contest “You Present Rise Against” at the Honda Center in September.
What exactly did Jason win?
His name will be on the marquee, he scored 11 pit tickets and all access passes for him and his friends, a private sound check before the show, meet & greet with Rise Against, a backstage dressing room, VIP parking, a limited edition Rise Against skateboard, the chance to pick out 2 merch items per person and he’ll even get to introduce the band onstage with a KROQ joq!
Check out the rest of our sweet contest here.

Tommy Gabel had been anticipating this moment for a long time. Friday night, the formerly male singer/guitarist made her debut as Laura Jane Grace at Humphreys By The Bay, an outdoor concert venue in San Diego. This marks the singer’s first performance since declaring herself transgender. The topic of transgenderism became hotly debated in the days following Gabel’s announcement two weeks ago.
The show was the first stop on their tour opening for alt-rock legends, The Cult. The band’s 40 minute set included “Transgender Dysphoria Blues,” the title track of their upcoming album.

Stryker Helps Give Away The Black…
Stryker was on hand at Warner Bros. Records to help give away ‘El Camino’ – The Black Keys’ van that was featured on the cover of their latest album of the same name. Congrats to Sevak from Tujunga who ended up with the “black key” that started the van.
Thanks to Smokin’ Willies for the bomb BBQ and Warner Bros. Records for making this possible.
