[@ciscoak9074]

After seeing eloy on drums on fully convinced now that jay was let go for his rushing habit..this is the 1st show iv seen in a decade where it sounds like they played to a click, or eloy is just a great time keeper! I waa so used to Jay's frantic pace live that I forgot what they sound like at normal speed until this performance and it REALLY made it more obvious just how much Jay's timing was.....bad.. I personally like bands like slipknot playing at faster bpm HOWEVER I can see how it could piss corey,jim,mick, and v man off having to keep up with that frantic uptick show after show..corey had time to really ununciate everything properly..also jay was 20 years younger than all those guys who needed to follow his pace, so playing fast may have been ok for a young jay, but probably wore thin on everyone else.for all we know they may have been telling jay for AWHILE to slow things down or play to a click with jay being unable or unwilling to adapt. What's 100% CERTAIN is that eloy played these songs at studio record speed..I think that in itself is very telling beccause of how audibly noticeable it was, atleast for me and alot of others when looking at comments on other vids of this show! I actually didn't realize HOW BAD Jay's rushing actually was until I saw this show simply because I had gotten soo used to the way they sounded live with jay on the kit, I had forgotten what they are suppose to sound like at proper tempo.

[@brandynosborn3374]

Glad someone else has this take too. One of the first things I told my wife was "I hate to say it but it's obvious how Jay just always played to fast." Not to say he was ever bad persay... but these songs need their time to breathe and grow and shut eloy has that power! Excited for the future now!

[@mkozlovskis97]

@@brandynosborn3374 It was bands decision to play few beats faster then CD's speed on live shows. It's not like Jay was in control of whole bands tempo. I think Corey even mentioned that in interview. Purpose of playing faster is to keep crowd invested, energized and excited. It definitely pumps your adrenaline more when you hear song played on faster beat. So people saying Jay was rushing, or of the beat is false narative.

Thats what i was thinking, but might also be cuz eloy needs one that's gonna stay put cuz he is violent as hell back there. I noticed his mask has massive straps keeping it in place that i dont see on the others

[@Frankenberry]

@@michaelmignone5869 I would assume he'll probably get one that's a little more stylized after the next album. That seems to be how they do. If you remember, V-man had a pretty plain looking mask when he first come in too. But that's probably for sure why he's got all the straps and shit, to keep it in place.

This specific tour is dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the release of the self-titled album. Hence they bring back the orange jumpsuits and the original mask styles of the original members that are still active.

[@schopenhauer5427]

Orange?

[@sonatine3266]

I mean the jumpsuits and the masks def. tell they're doing a "Slipknot - Slipknot" 2.0 thing. The masks look exactly like revised versions of the old masks from their first studio album and the red jumpsuits, too.

[@p3nnyroyalteaaa]

i took notice that corey's mask looks like a mix of the masks for the first three albums. self titled and iowa with the dreads, and vol 3 with the scrarecrow face. but then someone pointed out that not only is it self titled's *25th anniversary, but also vol 3's 20th anniversary* !

[@rikkubeans]

I've seen various videos of the show taken from different people and Corey sounds like he got his screams back.

[@alex199273]

I ended up going to that show. I'm not sure if they chose the location on purpose for live streaming because the signal was horrible there. It was just an hour south of Barstow ( I did a 5 hour drive). We bumped into the crew at the most random-tiny gas station. I got a photo with Jim. The show was phenomenal, it was almost an hour and a half set list. Dusty af, very intimate, definitely once in a lifetime event. There was a dude who wouldn't shut up and kept screaming "Eloy" throughout the whole show.
