Slipknot fans are reporting that guitarist Jim Root had some frustrating moments at a recent show.
A fan posted on Reddit, along with a video, “Jim throwing destroyed drum skins. Slightly earlier in the show he threw his guitar down in frustration, took Tortillas baseball bat and attacked the percussion. He also broke Tortillas yellow wrapped microphone, handing it to Corey Taylor who tried to sing through it, realized it was broken and threw it.”
He later wrote, “This was definitely a mood thing and it was definitely directed at Tortilla man. There were several incidents, I only happened to catch this little bit on camera cause I was filming jumpdafuckup.”
“I didn’t film him throwing his guitar and picking up the baseball bat. The only reason I was filming this was cause I wanted to record my girlfriends first jumpthefuckup! I hate using my phone at gigs- usually I take one quick photo and video for the insta then it’s switched off and in my pocket.”
