Slipknot

The Dallas Slipknot show last night was absolutely unstoppable! Their 25th Anniversary Show brought us back to the start and reminded us just how deep the Slipknot roots are and why they have such a dedicated following. The emotions ran high and deep between band & crowd. Maggots are one of a kind and the pulse is strong! Vended was energy, angst and above all an explosion of pure voltage! I was so impressed by their show, like they have been doing this for years. Griffin is the ultimate front man and he owns it. He’s definitely his own man but the genes are strong with this one. Vended will go far!

Life nation really dropped the ball on this set up. There was poor signage, and parking instructions. There were multiple car wrecks both going to and leaving the venue. I have been to many shows at this venue. The pit tickets cost 350, and lawn were $25. I have been listening to Slipknot since 2002, it was magical to have a throwback concert. Slipknot killed it. I wish it was more like Mayhem at the Meadows back in the day. Life Nation capitalist greed has sucked the culture out of our concerts. I don't think Slipknot is receiving most of the profits from the tickets...

Absolutely amazing! This was my first concert ever and I had so much fun. Orbit Culture and Knocked Loose opened up for them and they did a phenomenal job performing and at getting the crowd ready. Then, when Slipknot came out, I couldn’t control my excitement. I’m usually super reserved in public, but I couldn’t help singing along and rocking out with them. Thank you so much guys for the amazing performance!!!

Concert and performance was great. Corey was still a bit sick which was noticeable on his performance at times but we all have thesensort of days. Nevertheless he kept pushing through with exceptional moments too! The sound engineers need to be told to stop this stupid trend of having the kickdrums and bass frequencies overwhelming everything else. It destroys all other frequencies and intruments. Guitars were many time covered by excessive bass from badly tamed low frequencies coming from synths and bass guitar. Everytime there was a quick double kickdrum it swallowed everything else. I don't get this. It is not a kickdrum concert. It's a band concert and I would love to be able to choose which intruments I focus my attention instead of just hearing constantly the kickdrum in my face.

Slipknot of course were absolutely on fire, no Clown but that fair given the circumstances. Sleep Token, not sure some stuff was great, some not so much but I will check them out in their own right. Amazing, facilities were outstanding, except the toilets but that’s always gonna be the way at a metal gig. Stadium is really easy to get to, less than 5 minutes from the U/S Bahn station.

I have beyond no words nor any voice to explain how awesome Slipknot was tonight. I mean. Wow , awesome , amazing kind of words is a understatement. All I'm gonna say is if you haven't seen them yet. Be prepared, and be ready to have a kick ass time. I have not jumped around and sang so much in my life this much since well never lol. I cannot wait till I see them again

Slipknot were amazing. But the crowd was awful and disrespectful. I love mosh pits, i always join them and i’ve even been to death metal mosh pits which usually are bigger and more brutal. But yesterday was nothing close to a mosh pit. It was 5-10 idiots who deliberately pushed people who were unconscious forward (not each other in a circle) and not involved in their “mosh pit” and their goal was to push them and then get in front somehow. Those who were in front were all squeezed and nobody of us enjoyed the concerts because we were busy getting everyone who has fallen up. So most of us were forced to move back so we can enjoy the music and the guys who were pushing ended up in front.

Slipknot - amazing as usual. The visual aspects were next level down to the smallest details (thank you, Clown!) Every member brought it, but Sid and ‘Tortilla Man’ were all over the place! Highlight of the set for me was Solway Firth. Fresh off the new album and fits right in with the darkest and heaviest of Slipknot’s catalog. Volbeat - I like them on the albums but they’ve never really resonated live for me. This show was no different. They sounded great, it just didn’t take the show to another level IMO. Gojira - first time seeing them and perfect for this slot in the show. Great musicians and energy. People were psyched for Gojira. Behemoth - not my thing musically so I’m not going to knock them there. They’re a highly entertaining group of satanists from Poland. Overall, I knock this down to 4.5 for the Volbeat direct support choice. Yeah, there’s mass appeal there, but I don’t think it was the right fit for Knotfest. Corey promised another 20 years. If they deliver on that, I’ll sure as hell keep going! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Behemoth was great but they had some sound problems. Similarly with Gojira. Volbeat was boring, but Slipknot put on the best show I had ever f***ing seen. I need to see them whenever they're around now. I just wish I was in the pit instead of lawn, but pit tickets were nearly 4x what general admission cost. If it weren't for the fact that I was so far away, I'd give 5 stars. The venue lost it a half star.

Absolutely amazing! Im suprised they played so many old songs(mostly off of first 2 albums) considering new album was released the day before. Buy wow! What a performance. And considering how hot it was outside, you could just see the guys struggling with all the energy they were giving. What was up with #0 though? I feel he barely played anything, spent most of the time dancing around on stage. Not complaining, his outfit is badass and he was fun to watch. But didn't contribute a whole lot to the sound which was slightly dissapointing, cause he is amazing. Gojira was incredible. Sound wasnt the greatest on the sides, but I still loved it. Live the energy they put into it. Thank you guys for everything you do.

While they put on a great show, we were disappointed that the two drummers weren't actually playing the drums we were hearing. You could tell the drums were either pre-recorded and played back or maybe played on the synthesizer. In addition, the music was so loud you could barely hear the vocals. If you didn't already know the lyrics to the songs, you wouldn't have been able to figure out most of them.

I HAD THE ABSOLUTE BEST TIME OF MY ENTIRE LIFE WHEN I GOT TO ATTEND & EXPERIENCE MOTHERF*CKIN #KnotFest IN OCTOBER 2014. THE TICKETS WERE A BIRTHDAY PREZZIE FOR ME, & IT WAS, BY FAR, THE CRAZIEST AND MOST EMOTIONAL EVENT THAT I'D GONE TO & BEEN A PART OF IN SUCH A LONG TIME!!! I HAVE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO AFFORD TO ATTEND AGAIN, BUT MARK MY WORDS, IT IS NOW (& WILL ALWAYS AND FOREVER BE) ON MY BUCKET LIST, AND I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO PARTAKE IN EACH & EVERY #KnotFest FROM HERE ON OUT....xoxo 🤘🎸☠🎶🇺🇸🎶☠🎸🤘

Loved Of Mice & Men's set, as well as Slipknot's. Corey involves the crowd and is very energetic on stage which I love. Manson's performance was interesting. I know he's puts on a show for fans, but it was a bit odd. He spent quite some time sitting or lying on the floor singing while smashing his mic on the ground. He kinda looked like he didn't really want to be there?I was a bit upset that the show time was changed to 6:30 instead of 7:30. We left the house as soon as we could but we got stuck in heavy traffic and missed a part of Of Mice & Men's set (which was the main band j wanted to see). I thought it was a weird start time for a metal concert.Overall it was a great night!

Fantastic show! I would give at a full five stars had all the original band members been around. The show itself was very energetic and had a nice theatrical vibe. The crowd was great, a guy even offered to buy my old man a beer ( an OIF vet, I took him for his birthday) this was my second knot show and they have only improved their show since. The opening band had too much of a pop vibe to be playing with knot. But ST brought it back with a killer show, even though their lead singer was sick as a dog.

Best fucking show of my life. My first Slipknot show and it absolutely blew me away. The sound was fucking phenomenal, and I would love to shake the hand of the sound engineer in charge. I enjoyed my first ever wall of death (TWICE) at Suicidal Tendencies, and the pits were fucking rough. The only single downside I can think of is that Beartooth didn't really kill it like I thought they would. I'm a huge fan of them, and Caleb Shomo's performance in particular left a bit to be desired. However, I think that's mainly the crowd's fault, most of the crowd was dead as fuck the whole set, and I think he was getting frustrated at that. All-in-all, last night will go down in fucking history as the best show I've ever been to in my short life.

No concert will ever be the same after this. Motionless in White was the highly anticipated band for me. Bullet for my Valentine built the hype, Lamb of God fucking slayed it while slipknot just took the show and blew our freaking minds. It's what anyone could have wanted for the show and way more than you anticipated the hype would be. By far the most intense metal concert I have been to.

IT WAS INCREDIBLE. Lamb Of Put on an amazing performance as well. I wasn't there for Motionless in White and only heard two Bullet For My Valentine songs so I can't really put a rating on their performance. But Slipknot and Lamb of God were incredible. As I can say that this was my first "big" concert it was a day that will stay with me for as long as I live. I saw Sid dancing over the open flames by his tables and I made eye contact with Corey. Other than all that, the venue was pretty good, insanely high prices though. Luckily since I'm young I didn't really spend much money but still... So in total the venue and performances were great and an event that I will surely not soon forget.

Slipknot and Korn we're on top of their game last night.The crowd was very loud which I'm sure helped bring the two bands up another notch. Unfortunately I did not see the opening act, King 810 but from what I have heard I have to say their music is growing on me. I wish I could have gone and seen them in Fort Wayne tonight, I hope they come back around Kentucky or close soon.

well to start Kings was pretty pretty decent kinda hard to hear middle parts of some songs. but over all good beats and a decent flow to the songs. korn did a awesome Job. would have liked to see them have a longer set. I'm bias though I'm more of a korn fan then Slipknot. Slipknot came on and turned it up from then start. vocals was great both percussion sets hammered it. well the other guys held more then they're own. I would for sure see another show of theys.

It was a religious experience. Slipknot have always been my personal heroes so any show I go to will be a night to remember forever. My favorite part was when Clown came out into the audience during Spit It Out and was in the section right behind me. I turned around and there he was. We locked eyes and had a moment. If you ever get a chance to see a Slipknot show... GO! its like watching the apocalypse on stage right before your eyes.
