Slipknot's Corey Taylor Says Fans Need To Unplug and Enjoy The Show

(TeamRock Radio) Corey Taylor says he tries to pour water on anyone who uses their mobile phones at Slipknot gigs. The singer hates seeing fans filming gigs on their phones - and he'll do whatever it takes to stop it from happening.

Taylor tells 101 WRIF: "I see it every once in a while. People don't do it so much at our shows, and if they do, they do it from quite a way back, because I empty whole water bottles into people as soon as I see them staring at their phone or tweeting or whatever.

"There was this one poor girl, and God bless her, she was a fan, but at the same time, she wasn't being very covert about it. So I emptied four bottles on to her, and it had to have broken her phone. And then she was just bummed for the rest of the night, and I just kept shrugging at her, going, 'Hey, it's a live show. Pay attention, or don't be here.'

"People need to unplug and realize they're missing their lives. It's sad. And that may be me just being an old jerk, but I don't care." Read more here.
