    Mick Thomson chose NOT to partake in the drugs, sex, and alcohol... He was full of darkness and pain, but he chose to play XBOX instead.

    Corey means a lot to me.. Inspiration, quotes, lyrics and literature by him made me learn, understand and appreciate life as it is. I dont listen to metal much, and i dont go many concerts or whatever. But that slipknot tattoo, those shirts and those lyrics, is my way off life! Slipknot and stone sour is power for me, fuel and energy! I hope someone reads this who feels simmilair, if thats the case, i love you and i have respect for you! For all the maggots and fans💜

    I don't know him, nobody here does but, I hope that someone, a fan, a hater, whoever that watches this vid and is having a bad time in life, somehow listens to this man, asshole or not, hero or not, and feel less alone, less desperate.
    I hope you can have hope again. And if you do, hold on to it. Hold it with all that you have and one day you will reach the surface again.

    Corey, you bastard! You've set me off crying now. Really moving stuff. So rare to see a rock star who is so emotionally honest. So smart. Wears his heart on his sleeve ( right next to the Slipknot tatt) Even when he was still drinking and taking drugs he was an amazingly great songwriter, singer and stage performer. I mean he was drying out when they recorded Subliminal Verses - that can't have been easy. Now he's gone up a couple of notches. Legend!
