Corey Taylor of Slipknot had to take time off from Slipknot’s summer tour this year because of neck surgery, but he has now said he should have missed even more time. What has always sounded like a serious, but fine surgery he had to go through, has now become one that he should have missed even more time for. Taylor has recently come out to say that he was a young man acting like nothing was wrong when he went through tough injuries in year’s past.
Taylor was allowed to get back to the tour after two weeks, but instead took three weeks to jump back into it. Even then, he came back too fast as the injury was that serious. Thankfully for us all, Taylor went to his doctor when he did. That doctor couldn’t believe that he walked into the office his spine was that bad. Thankfully he’s doing fine these days and recovering every minute and we hope that he takes it easy as much as he can these days. We love Slipknot and the rest of the day rock out, so of course we want each band member to be at their peak during these tough performances.
