Rarely seen a youtuber giveaway backing tracks as gifts. But hell yeah, that's the best gift ever. Better than giving away iPhones. Thank you KRGuitars. I've been watching your videos before I even learn how to play a guitar. Now, it's been about half year. Yep, i still play like shit. But watching you to play those cover songs was one of the thing that give me power to start learning guitar. So, thank you so much. You are the best!

man's so dedicated to slipknot he got even a tattoo of mick on his arm

[@TheDarkThorne]

Is it weird, that it feels like the eerie feelings when I think about their masks, is how their playing is.... like Mick has the jason/serial killer hockey mask, his leads mimic the stalkerish serial killer themes, and Jim is the jester, more whimsical, kind of a saddening whimper while he plays, but playful at the same time... slipknot just became weirder to me now lol... *puts joint down*
