[@ericpena7418]

@@SoundSelector Explanation?

[@SoundSelector]

@@ericpena7418 the copyright is for the original recording.

[@mr.anonymous5501]

@@SoundSelector KZbin copyright violation detection is an automatic algorithm that's very poor. It frequently detects cover versions and versions being used with appropriate respect to copyright law as being in violation of copyright . Then it automatically issues a violation notice to the channel, and it's up to the channel owner to challange the judgement. It's not really as funny in explination.

My favorite memory of jim root was years ago but still left a mark. I cant remember what year but they were on tour with lamb of god and shadows fall . It was around christmas time at the alliant energy center in madison WIS. I worked for the venues contracted security / event staff. When I walked in the building in the backstage area of the arena. Jim had a big rig set up in the " hallway". Now keep in mind im a huge slipknot fan . on the way to work . i listened to the entire Iowa album ( I lived a long way from the arena) anyway, when i walked in , jim was playing christmas tunes (like only he could play) on his guitar louds as fuck. I thought it was funny as hell to have one of your favorite metal musicians play jingle bells. 😆.

[@thehomelessyoutuber844]

@Luca Cox Believe it or not, the proper English spelling and it applies to most words ending 'ise' originally used a z instead of the s. It is another example of the ever increasing Americanisation of the English language which has now been accepted. I really don't see how Americans can tell the English they are wrong. My reply to any American trying to tell me I'm wrong is simple... "Tell me, what language are you speaking?" A crisp is not a chip, a cookie is a type of biscuit and a billion is million million, not a thousand million, that's how it works, ten tens are a hundred, a hundred hundreds are a thousand, a thousand thousand is a million and a MILLION million is a billion. Also, colour is spelt coloUr. Btw, I absolutely love America, if I could, I would live there in a heart beat. I went there as a kid in the early 80's, two consecutive years on 6 week long holidays. We travelled all over California, went to Vegas and also spent a week in New York. I adore the country and its people. At the time, not many Brits went to California. Florida was the destination of choice for most. I will never forget, as soon as we sat down to eat in any restaurant, the whole place would go quiet and someone would say, 'Are you English?' As soon as we said yes, that was it, they would be arguing over who's home we would be pleaded with to visit. We were made to feel so welcome and so special. We were literally treated like royalty and they genuinely wanted to know all about us. My dad was a wizard with guitars and was pretty well known at the time. He worked on Lemmy's, fir bith Motorhead and Hawkwind, Robert Fripp, James, New Order, 10cc. He is the one who sprayed John Lennon's Rickenbacker black which has had full web sites devoted to it and was dubbed 'black beauty'. Anyway, we went to the Fender factory in California and Leo Fender himself welcomed us in. He knew of my dad's wirk and gave him actual Fender transfers for the headstock on the occasion he would end up having to completely remake a neck so that his work would then be an official Fender part. That was unheard of. He custom built Robert Fripp's guitar synth. Only one of its kind. At the time, the magazine guitar player did a complete feature about it. I got off track a bit there but I didn't want any Americans to think I was anti American or anything. George Fullerton was there that day and they were just starting G & L guitars. Meeting Jim Root was up there with meeting Fender for me.

He is one of my favorite Slipknot guys. Part of that may be because I loved him in Stone Sour, as well.

[@taniacatalinacif]

I really love rock music but I never learned to play instruments and this make me sad :( Jim stay safe 🖤✨

[@thomascoates4820]

I love the, “ Your out of time” flag behind Jim. I think that’s from the “Bounty” ship. Black Beard!

[@nikoratsu94]

[@TheOneAndOnlyDJRapta]

[@todddavis4274]

Not a Slipknot fan at all but this guy seems so contradictory to the band. Very knowledgeable and precise. I never imagined he could play so well.Seems level-headed and very professional. Kudos to Jim!

I really love this guy. He’s so down to earth and I can relate to him very well. Would really love a chance to meet him and maybe jam with him a little bit and just talk about music. You rock Jim, love from Bangladesh 🤘🏽

[@JMetalGuitarist]

Right. like, was that an act? It sounded like he totally wrecked his shit and jim just sits there like “should I call an ambulance? ... ... ... He’s fine, his wife will put a bandaid on it.” Bro, what happened to that guy what do you have in that room that could cause that much agony? all he did was walk past you. 🤣
