Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor revealed that he’s planning some solo tour dates for April and May, making it clear that social-distancing and safety will be top priority. Taylor released his solo album CMFT late last year.
Taylor revealed plans for a three week tour of the midwest during a recent interview, saying in part, “[It will be a] short tour — probably about three weeks. Some of the places we’ll be doing two nights in one city. It’ll be completely social-distanced, which means there’ll be pods with space around it, and the only people allowed in the pod are the people who came with that group. [There will be] temp checks at the door, and you have to have proof of a negative test within 48 hours [of the show], or you won’t be let in at all.”
Taylor said that any potential touring was still in the planning stages and he’s still working out the details: “We need to learn to adapt — we need to adapt and move on and find ways to do this. Like I said, once the vaccine’s had a chance to really kind of do its thing, we will really start to have those tentative steps back towards normalcy as best we can” adding, ..”And now, this is how we’re gonna reopen things. But we’re gonna get this going.’ And that should be encouraging people.”
