Corey Taylor is just as good at doing comedy as he is performing in Slipknot. If you look up the term "Badass" in the dictionary there is a link to Corey Taylor.
The way I see it is, you don't have to support Corey or slipknot. He has plenty of loyal fans with or without the haters. The haters are just free press. He is one of the most talented of Almost any of em in the Industry.
Back in June of this year, I met Corey in Indianapolis and we talked about that Guns N’ Roses concert in Boston. He also said he saw the second official GN’R reunion show in Las Vegas back in 2016, and he felt he got far more of his money’s worth at that show. Plus, he was pleasantly surprised and delighted Axl came onstage early
damn... some people hate storytelling they must have a bad childhood. but i love knowing one of the best front man in any band is really as good a storyteller as this.
I'm not a fan of Slipknot at all, it's totally the antithesis of the music I like to listen too. But as soon as Corey takes his mask off and steps away from the mic, I'm all ears. Such a funny, genuine and charismatic guy. Seriously, this guy is a worthy successor to Robin Williams. He's a natural.
The only problem with Chinese Democracy is that it is a Guns N Roses album. If it were a Axl album, people would love and said it was one of the greatest album of 00 years
To be fair, Corey is the only original member left, honestly him and drummer Joel were the only original members from the beginning, and I'm not even sure if Joel was there AT the beginning because I know they had a couple other drummers on bonus tracks and stuff.
@@Dinobot2 ehh I think part of the reason stone sour is on indefinite hiatus is because Corey doesn’t want to continue it without Jim and I would understand why, hydrograd didn’t get the same love House of gold and bones pt 2. I look at Corey Jim Josh and Ekonomaki in particular stone sour
@@romaretaylor9953 Pretty sure the reason they're on hiatus is because Corey is busy with other shit and he said there's no where else they can really take Stone Sour creatively.
Before I was in to Metal, I was in to GNR, back when the original line up was Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy etc. Axl thinks without him, there would be no GNR. He's wrong, that's why it's called a BAND because you BAND together!
in the gnr show i was at during welcome to the jungle axl stopped the band from playing and said that if anyone threw anymore bottles that they go home
after seeing your comment i asked my father about the shirt here is what he said, he went to a concert on 06/09/85 in Portland, OR he said the shirt cost him like $15 or something like that.
Guns n' Roses only really has one memorable album, Appitite for Destruction. Slipknot and Stone Sour have way more than that. Guns n' Rose's may have been something in the eighties through the early nineties but Axl Rose's shitty behavior killed it.
@@moshking6749 As if only Axl was responsible for the end of the band. It was Slash who said bye, he was not fired. But, it doesn't matter anymore, they are together again.
@@moshking6749 yah sure all the other members doing hardcore heroin has nothing to do with is just axl .you got to put your self in his shoes imagine being sober and you have deal with bunch if junkies all the time
GNR went down hill after slash left. i went to a GNR concert with a friend a few years ago and got kicked out because i was wearing an old school GNR/Slash shirt(an old shirt my father had got back when he went to a GNR concert in the late seventies early eighties) I was told that in Axel rose's contract it states no one in his direct eye line can be wearing anything that has Slash's face on it(no matter how old the article of clothing is)That was the day i lost all respect for the new GNR
A tour which would've included 1985 in Portland would've seemingly been their "trip from hell" which you can probably find quotes about if you are so inclined. I think Duff had something to do with it, as he's from Seattle.
+Knoh it's fucking crazy how fast the world is changing these days since the Internet and computers! 5 years ago seems like ancient technology nowadays, the way we would have referred to black and white TV or AM radio just 10-15 years ago.
I love this guy because he's such a down to earth dude, he's just another fan of good music like all of us, no rockstar bullshit anywhere. Corey is the kind of dude you want to hang out with and grab a beer.
sorry for late reply just noticed..we was like 20-30 minutes late.. was amazing and converted my teen from Rap,grime and R&B so im certain they were on fire. what was so great was that nobody seemed in charge. they just jammed gave a hell of a show and played over 30 songs, for a 50 yr old he really shows a lot of energy i was knackered lol..thing that bugs me is the guys apart from Adler all left so Axl is only trying to carry on with the band he and Traci started ya know?he gets a bad rap IMHO
Funny thing is now axl roses piano has had CT balls on it and nirvana spit on it back in the day. LoL. That alone should have the piano inducted into the R&R hall of fame lol
Ok, has anyone else seen that video where the Murderdolls is pranking their manager and Joey has his face shoved into a pillow so no one hears him laughing? That's me after seeing this video... It's 2:30 in the morning, my bf is asleep, but this has me laughing so hard that I had to leave the room so I wouldn't wake him up.
I personally don't agree, but I do know it's your opinion. I just think Slash, Axl, Duff, Steven, and Izzy were Guns N' Roses. Axl and his band now, to me, aren't. They've really lost it. Granted, Axl's a lot older now, but still. You saw them last week? How long did you have to wait? 3 hours?
and all of this was during the same heatwave Corey is talking about in his story was the hottest recorded temperature in the UK at that time got to like 36 degrees celcius... so people were PISSED including me as i was sunburnt to holy fuck, we all just started chanting "GIIIIIIIINGER WAAAAANKER" funnily enough there were riots that night after guns n roses finished which i think might have been started initially by axls little tantrum pissing people off in that rediculous heat
It also sounds like Corey did indeed meet Axl Rose during the Holland Festival before it started, I think the real reason why Axl Rose just got back in his car and left too quickly, is likely due his jealousy of other bands playing the festival. And maybe he had a mental breakdown when seeing Corey, in my opinion he should’ve admired Stone Sour and Slipknot, but I think he doesn’t do that due to him being an Asshole and too stuck up to do that. He doesn’t appear to be a nice person. And I don’t think he likes todays music to be honest. He probably is still somewhat stuck in his ways from the late 80s and 90s but probably is getting alittle better today. But what I heard on those who have met him, said he can be kind, but not always… it depends on his mood. And you have to Pay a lot of money to meet him from what I heard, meeting Axl Rose is not free…. Especially for meet and greets I think it costs 2 or 3 grand maybe more… and I think Axl got in his car and leaves, likely exposes what he does when GNR aren’t showing up on time, he probably and eventually returns hours later. I think Corey is the only witness who spoke up about GNR’s absences from that festival. It was supposed to be headlined by Guns N. Roses.
Funniest thing is i can totally imagine all of this i was at Download festival 2006 Stone Sour were playing mid slot on the main stage saturday and Guns n roses were headlining sunday, axl fucking walked off stage because he fell over during sweet child... then we had to watch his guitarist do fuck knows what weird shit with a guitar that had bug wings or some crap until like 20 30 minutes later he finally returned with his bassist making up some bullshit excuse trying to blame it on the crowd.
"This song is called Mr. Brownstone..."
"YOU'RE FUCKIN' RIGHT IT IS!"
NICE PROFILE PICTURE
Axl: "Why does my piano smell like sweaty balls??"
Security Guy: "Well, sir, it's like this, you see..."
Corey - "By the way, this was during Welcome To The Jungle"
Crowd - "Ooooooooooooooooooh"
Nuff said!
I met Corey on Stone Sour's first tour and he told me this same story lol
@Ryan Mcdaniel He is, he's super nice
10 years later and this story is still hysterical
Man, I could listen to Corey talk all day.
its not like you can hear him talk in this video...
Odd. I can hear him just fine.
@Tim Cooley What on earth are you on about? I didn’t say he’s a role model. Just a good storyteller. Get over yourself.
Corey Taylor is just as good at doing comedy as he is performing in Slipknot.
If you look up the term "Badass" in the dictionary there is a link to Corey Taylor.
There are no links in a dictionary. There are definitions and synonyms.
JamesRoyalBastionIV Maybe on Wikipedia
AGI GAMING Wikipedia is not a dictionary.
en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bad-ass#English
look at the adjectives
You realize that anyone can go and change whatever they want, right?
Axl: "This song is called Mr. Brownstone"
Corey: "YOU'RE FUCKIN' RIGHT IT IS!" haha funny shit
I just love how this man tells his stories. You know, without question, that everything is completely true. Just a cool dude
Him and Dave Grohl are some of the best storytellers. I could listen to them talk for hours.
Fuck Dave Grohl, you can thank that fucker for ruining real Rock n Roll
He's got a way with delivery when sharing memories that puts you right there with him . Hilarious
The way I see it is, you don't have to support Corey or slipknot. He has plenty of loyal fans with or without the haters. The haters are just free press. He is one of the most talented of Almost any of em in the Industry.
i been a huge GNR fan for over 20 years, and seeing them last week they are soo back.. it took a while but new line up is awesome
"And Alice in Chains is the best fucking band in the world."
Me: "FUCKING RIGHT IT IS!"
CKY Is pretty freaking awesome. Axl n' Roses not so much...
*"This song is called Mr brownstone"*
Lmao he totally does that. 🤣
Corey is such a legend :D great vid !
Corey Taylor is a true songwriter and musician. Just like his songs u can actually picture yourself experiencing his story.
Plus we also got Stradlin at this gig so i was super happy to see the 2 buds together again :D
Back in June of this year, I met Corey in Indianapolis and we talked about that Guns N’ Roses concert in Boston. He also said he saw the second official GN’R reunion show in Las Vegas back in 2016, and he felt he got far more of his money’s worth at that show.

The man talks such sense and to know we share the same opinions on Guns n Roses, good man Corey 🤘
damn... some people hate storytelling they must have a bad childhood. but i love knowing one of the best front man in any band is really as good a storyteller as this.

Really nigga
Yes, cutie.
"antithesis of the music I LIKE TO LISTEN TOO" this guy isn't saying slipknot isnt music they're just saying its not the type of music they like
yeah i'm not a fan of Slipknot but Stone Sour tho, you might like that.
Chinese Democracy is actually a good Album !
The only problem with Chinese Democracy is that it is a Guns N Roses album. If it were a Axl album, people would love and said it was one of the greatest album of 00 years
@1:57 He ain’t lyin’! They should’ve been calling themselves Pistols and Posies!
Nerfguns n grasses
Fuck you
Goosebumps, that is what I feel when heard Corey told Axl introducing Guns N Roses songs 😭 that's totally awesome, very very bad ass 🤘
Coreys so funny and a good story teller:D
Axl does owe his fans one thing. getting on stage and starting a show on time!!
you had me their for a second
Love Corey. Keeps it real 💯 Stay true Corey.
Ah yes, a recording on the first iPhone
corey is such a awesome person
I was at this show lol yelling Yeah! after he mentions Buckethead
I'm curious how Corey feels about Stone Sour still being called Stone Sour when he and Josh Rand are the only original members left.
To be fair, Corey is the only original member left, honestly him and drummer Joel were the only original members from the beginning, and I'm not even sure if Joel was there AT the beginning because I know they had a couple other drummers on bonus tracks and stuff.
@@Xeroforte Lol so it's even more damaging to Corey's argument then.

Corey Taylor has so many cool stories, I'd be happy to listen to him talk all day about the crazy tour stories in Slipknot.
Brilliant !
I fucking love Corey Taylor! My favorite rock star ever!!
corey would be an awesome friend
The Carrie he's referring to is Mistress Carrie from WAAF, 97.7 and 107.3 in Boston! I was at this show as well and couldn't believe the shit storm!
Before I was in to Metal, I was in to GNR, back when the original line up was Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy etc. Axl thinks without him, there would be no GNR. He's wrong, that's why it's called a BAND because you BAND together!
I've seen the show in Nijmegen. Went for Stone Sour. And Yes, it was THAT hot! caught the guitar pick of Josh Rand! Best day ever!
I was at the Boston show in 2002!
The funniest man in music today!
I went to that show
Amo a este hombre. Es un genio.
in the gnr show i was at during welcome to the jungle axl stopped the band from playing and said that if anyone threw anymore bottles that they go home
Corey is an Amazing Story Teller.
Nice CKY reference!!
after seeing your comment i asked my father about the shirt here is what he said, he went to a concert on 06/09/85 in Portland, OR he said the shirt cost him like $15 or something like that.
the radio DJ he's referring to is mistress carrie on waaf.
Is there another version with better sound what did you record with you are so close yet it sounds like you're behind a wall
the guy couldnt find a camera so he used a potato instead
yay cKy!
Corey Taylor will never ever be as huge as Axl Rose just like Slipknot will never ever be as huge as Guns N Roses.Fact.
How does that change the fact that Axl is a complete asshole who ruined that band?
Guns n' Roses only really has one memorable album, Appitite for Destruction. Slipknot and Stone Sour have way more than that. Guns n' Rose's may have been something in the eighties through the early nineties but Axl Rose's shitty behavior killed it.

I wonder how he feels now that they are doing the reunion tour?
Imagine being so in love with hearing your own voice..
Was this video recorded with a potato?
Ooooh I'd love to see them! Team Slash ftw :3
Corey has the best stories
Bullshit
Yes, just yes.
Corey, you fuckin rock!!
I'm seeing Corey and Metallica at Download in June, can't fucking wait :D
GNR went down hill after slash left. i went to a GNR concert with a friend a few years ago and got kicked out because i was wearing an old school GNR/Slash shirt(an old shirt my father had got back when he went to a GNR concert in the late seventies early eighties)

john haris Damn.
lol yeah im sure that happened
first i will start by says, guns and roses is one of my favorite bands. old guns and roses i should say. but my god, axl is SUCH a premadonna
A tour which would've included 1985 in Portland would've seemingly been their "trip from hell" which you can probably find quotes about if you are so inclined. I think Duff had something to do with it, as he's from Seattle.
GNR took forever for me in Cincinnati, they were at a bar, and forgot about the show -_-
All did the same shit to us in Denver!
I appreciate that you did, but how is it even possible to record this low quality video anymore?
It was 2011, phones that had video cameras were crap back then.
+Knoh it's fucking crazy how fast the world is changing these days since the Internet and computers! 5 years ago seems like ancient technology nowadays, the way we would have referred to black and white TV or AM radio just 10-15 years ago.
I was there. I was in the front on the other side of the stage.
2:15 awesome "too fucking right it is!!!"
I love this guy because he's such a down to earth dude, he's just another fan of good music like all of us, no rockstar bullshit anywhere. Corey is the kind of dude you want to hang out with and grab a beer.
how do you know I haven't seen GnR? I was unaware that you knew everything about me, please tell me more.
Corey's face at 4:37 lol
it's Axl btw agree, i'm not a big fan of GnR's music anymore since slash and duff left/kicked out
Lmao the thought of corey taylor Step brother-ing axel rose's piano is the best thought I've ever had
sorry for late reply just noticed..we was like 20-30 minutes late.. was amazing and converted my teen from Rap,grime and R&B so im certain they were on fire. what was so great was that nobody seemed in charge. they just jammed gave a hell of a show and played over 30 songs, for a 50 yr old he really shows a lot of energy i was knackered lol..thing that bugs me is the guys apart from Adler all left so Axl is only trying to carry on with the band he and Traci started ya know?he gets a bad rap IMHO

Kurt actually spat on Elton John's piano by accident and said he felt very guilty. It was a great attempt though.
corey is the f'n man!!
Holy shit, with the prank call? That shit had me dying at 6 in the morning last week, fucking Wednesday 13..
I fucking love Corey so fucking much!!!! wow fuck man
HOLLAND!!!!!!!!!!!
Corey: my pants have pockets
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
FUCK YEA WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:12 when he said he wasn't proud of it, he was a bit proud of it. fuck, i would.
There is no Guns N' Roses anymore, only Axl N' Friends
Nahh I think I've got my facts pretty right thanks :)
9:13
And now 18,836 people know.
Actually , his voice is identical to Axl's .
I was about 6 feet to your right
I feel like I'm watching a stand up special. xD
Axl: ... This song is called Mr. Brownstone...
Corey: YOURE FUCKING RIGHT IT IS!!!
😂😂😂😂
OMG HE SAID "RAD" :D
hahahahahahahaha he tbagged axls piano! what a beauty!
