Slipknot have been forced to postpone some of their shows with Marilyn Manson and Of Mice & Men, due to Corey Taylor having to undergo unplanned spinal surgery. The band will return to the stage on June 28.
Taylor said the following:
“Regretfully, I’m sending this to our fans to inform you that we will be postponing the first couple of weeks of our upcoming U.S tour. Unfortunately, I had to undergo an unplanned spinal surgery. I am recovering nicely, and all went well! I need a little recovery time before hitting the stage. We will start the summer tour in Nashville on 6/28 and continue as previously scheduled. An update on the rescheduled dates will be available in the next few days. I hope you all understand and thanks for always having my back!
Thank you–Corey “

One response to “Corey Taylor Undergoes Spinal Surgery, Slipknot Postpone Upcoming Dates”
I will always agree ‘Slipknot’ is currently the best heavy metal band in America and one of the best in the world.
I can understand about “the suffering from the pain of spine”.
But,
I don’t understand why American metal society still want to give Marilyn Manson this kinda infamous rocker much more opportunity to perform on stage with good band like Slipknot and Of Mice and Men.
Those two bands’s vocalists’s voices are perfectly shocking , I can’t picture after losing voice How Marilyn Manson could sing with Slipknot and Of Mice and Men.
Perhaps , This time Slipknot shall give this infamous rocker Marilyn Manson a really heavy lesson about ‘Psychosocial’.
Peace. Wish Corey Taylor could recover soon after suffering of the pain of spine.
