COREY TAYLOR: 'I'm In SLIPKNOT. That Means I Have A Lot Of Problems.'

June 14, 2015

SLIPKNOT singer Corey Taylor was interviewed by Dasding radio on June 7 before the band's performance at this year's edition of the Rock Am Ring festival in Mendig, Germany. You can now watch the chat below.

Asked if he ever wishes he was 24 again, which is the age of SLIPKNOT's current drummer Jay Weinberg, or if he is happy being older and wiser, Taylor responded: "I tell you what: I would not wanna go back… Well, if I could retain the knowledge that I have now and go back into a 20-year-old body, I'd totally do it. But I'm pretty comfortable in my own skin. I'm pretty comfortable being 41 now. So… Maybe new knees… I don't know."

Asked if he has knee problems, Taylor replied: "Nah. Well, you know, I'm in SLIPKNOT. That means I have a lot of problems."

SLIPKNOT's "Summer's Last Stand" tour kicks off on July 24 in West Palm Beach, Florida, wrapping up six weeks later on September 5 in Dallas. Joining SLIPKNOT on the road trip will be LAMB OF GOD, BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE and MOTIONLESS IN WHITE.

The summer jaunt follows a brief spring run that SLIPKNOT launched on April 25 at the Fort Rock festival in Fort Myers, Florida, ending on May 16 in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
