Stone Sour is great indeed tho my heart goes out to their previous skinsman who lost his son to cancer. he left the band to be by his side an decided not to return. Cannot wait for the 3rd Stone Sour album tho.
Having some guy with a rubber ball on some kind of flexible tube and hitting the drum over and over (and it wasn't Joey the drummer, was one of those other guys that have no real use, lol) just didn't work. That and the fans walking around with gas masks and hazmat suits, lol. The light up 666 didn't help any. More show then music. I like some of their stuff, and I actually like Stonesour. Corey has talent, just gets lost in the show.
where I am it would take a MIRACLE for the Slipknot to perform and I would be first in line to see them without a doubt. I owe them everything plus Joey is one of my main influences that got me into starting to learn how to play drums.
I saw Slipknot live once. Big show with Slipknot, Godsmack and I forget who else. Slipknot was horrible. More show then music, if that makes sense (and I've seen KISS, the ultimate show band, and they put Slipknot to shame).
Cannibal Corpse: Evisceration Plague
Hatebreed: For the Lions

Devildriver: The Fury of our Maker's Hands
Divine Heresy: Bringer of Plagues

Take your choice Troynos. -salute-
P.S - If it wasn't for Slipknot I wouldnt have gotten into metal.
