    I think it's cool that Slipknot has a British guy in the band now, because one of their biggest fan bases in England. Plus Sid's family is from England. Good way to show some love.

    Alex wasn’t use to wearing masks when he performed so in his first slipknot gig he fainted from heat exhaustion and had to play the rest of the 2 shows behind stage on a chair. Fact

    • @nobzey
      @nobzey Před 6 lety

      I can only imagine it is just another tube D.I. that when it gets pushed generates its own unique flavour. From there it becomes the luxury of the FOH to blend in the perfect cocktail each night. I am more interested in why the 8x10? I am guessing as a total insurance plan in case the rig went haywire. Throw a mic on the cab and the show goes on but I have no clue.

    • @michasarnecki2529

      Tube amplifier such as his Mesa needs to be connected to cab, if you run it unconnected it will blow up.
