Ryan NeffGUEST
It's a weird thing to get used to when you go through those areas that are that cold.
Nev PearceHOST
So how was that last tour here, that Knotfest tour for you? Did you have a good time?
Ryan NeffGUEST
Yeah, we did one of the first US Knotfests way back in 2013 or 14.
Ryan NeffGUEST
They did it in...
Ryan NeffGUEST
They did one in California and then we did one in Japan when those were just one-offs.
JackGUEST
Top two.
MicahGUEST
I want to go back to when did we go to Knotfest? Was it like three, two or three years ago?
ZachGUEST
Was it 23? 2023 was the last one,
MicahGUEST
I think.
MicahGUEST
We went to like one of the Knotfests where was it Slipknot? No, it was Pantera.
MicahGUEST
It was Pantera was playing and I was having a great time.
ZachGUEST
Pantera-ish.
Gavin McInallyHOST
Uh, Revolver features elements of the classic Slipknot.
Gavin McInallyHOST
COS, Knotfest, which you have to laugh at.
Gavin McInallyHOST
Rock Sound, Kerrang!, Needle Drop, all of them.
Gavin McInallyHOST
Now, they might have been a bit clever, but whoever pulled this together, Slipknot, their management, or their PR team, they've not put scores there, but they've just taken out the quotes.
DJGUEST
brilliant and i bet they didn't expect that in any shape either yeah
JimHOST
no no i think they really appreciate it as well like i think it was quite formative for them and in that that age you know where were we going with this oh we were talking about like um bands that were headlining shows and so like this news of where the legacy artists are going and what the new guys are trying to do yep it's it's a succession plan i don't know there's so many there's so many artifices as well like and what when Metallica retire and when Maiden retire and they have even in this point in their careers they're establishing themselves as okay it's not just the show it's everything around the show it's about all the when you walk into a Maiden thing like it's like and this is what Slipknot I haven't been to a Knotfest though so maybe that's the thing when you go into any Maiden show especially if it's like an arena show you're definitely like battered with the branding you're battered with these opportunities it's like alright scan this QR code win a thing whatever blah blah blah blah blah blah blah there's a lot of muscle in there and
DJGUEST
it's been deployed very uniquely
JimHOST
and specifically to that band.
Luke SevereidGUEST
For the international travel.
Luke SevereidGUEST
I mean, that tour show, that run of shows last year tied to Knotfest was the first like international thing.
Luke SevereidGUEST
I've done like some Canada stuff, but like.
Luke SevereidGUEST
Not really even that much since the internet popped off.
Jake SteinhauserGUEST
I mean, the Froth and Fury shows was kind of a bit easy for us to tailor the set to because we hadn't been to Perth or Adelaide for such a long time.
Jake SteinhauserGUEST
So I think, correct me if I'm wrong, Jay, we played, I think, the same set that we did for Knotfest in Australia for those because we were like, well, we didn't bring this show to this side of Australia.
Jake SteinhauserGUEST
So let's do that.
Jamie HailsGUEST
Which worked out beautifully, actually.
Tori KravitzHOST
We're all hanging.
