SLIPKNOT has completely sold-out their homecoming show at the Iowa State Fair Grandstand scheduled for August 10th (2 months away) with a capacity crowd of 16,000 that will pack the Grandstand for a historic moment. This will be SLIPKNOT’s first ever show at the Des Moines, Iowa fairgrounds. The momentous performance will see SLIPKNOT celebrating the release of their long-awaited new studio album set to arrive just 1 day before the historic event on August 9th. I can only predict now that there may be a seismic earthquake in Iowa on the 10th of August.
“This is big for us,” notes the band’s own M. Shawn Crahan better known as Clown. “I watched Metallica, from the outside - I didn’t have anyone to take me in. The fair is, and was always, about music - main stage, little stages, even little puppet stages. But there was livestock, agriculture, games - even the police had a presence there, showing crime scene photos to kids so they’d understand the world a bit better. It was chaos. As a kid, this was our internet. To have sold this out, this early, is intense.”
The band will embark on their Knotfest Roadshow headlining tour set to traverse across North America with Volbeat, Gojira, and Behemoth joining as special guests on all dates. Produced by Live Nation, the 29-city outing will kick off July 26th in Mountain View, CA at Shoreline Amphitheater and continue through September 8th where it will conclude with a performance at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, TX.
