but cool!!!!!
I happened to catch it in Vancouver and Slipknot had just been added to the bill, other band dropped out, they needed a fill, you know. No one knew who Slipknot was, not me, no one in the crowd, and their album had only been out for maybe 2 weeks. They came out and played this song called Purity, and this song can only be found on the first 5000 copies of their first CD, due to the fact that he didn't write the lyrics, got sued, yadda yadda yadda.

It was carnage. For the first few songs peoples jaws were on the floor. 9 guys, with crazy masks, jumping around like a bunch of lab. monkeys, I never seen anything like it. It was a short set, I remeber that, only about 30min or so, but it was non-stop. Song after song, right after the other, while the singer is calling us pussies telling us to go harder and harder.

The best thing about it was, after Pantera played 'a new level' and 'becoming', Phil asks us, "so, what you think of fuckin Slipknot pretty fuckin insane let ME HEAR YA!"

Anyways, awesome nights, one of the best shows I've seen, although Strung Out comes second, due to the fact there was almost a near riot from a fight that started with one the guitar players, and one the crowds people. Got a little out of hand, but fun. :thumbsup:
