Shawn "Clown" Crahan of Slipknot confirm that upcoming US tour is in the making
Shawn "Clown" Crahan of Slipknot has posted the following message on his Facebook page:
"I wanted to tell everyone straight from my mouth because you may have heard it already anyway, but Slipknot will be touring by next June in America only, but that does not mean things will not change, and as they do, I will, along with others, tell you, our family, first. No album yet because it is too soon and there are no songs yet because the band needs to come together to write this next one. I cannot wait to feel the ideas like choking on color. Everything happens for a reason, so be ready."
Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor last week tweeted that he is working on a new album with his other band, STONE SOUR, whose third full-length effort, "Audio Secrecy", came out less than a year ago.
Slipknot recently completed a three-week European tour that was the band's first run of dates since the death of bassist Paul Gray in May 2010. Slipknots final gig in Europe was a headlining set at England's Sonisphere festival.
