Korn to Replace Bassist With 12-Year-Old

Korn is out on tour this year and they have run into a slight problem. Their bassist, Reginald Arvizu aka Fieldy, isn’t going to be able to make it to South America for the shows there. What ever shall the band do?

Apparently these guys know what they want to do and it comes in the form of recruiting the son of Metallica’s Robert Trujillo to play bass for them! This is not a joke! He is in a band called The Helmets, so he has experience playing the bass. The band will be taking Tye Trujillo with them to South America to play six dates.

Have no fear Korn fans. Fieldy will be back in action with the band starting May 6. Let’s take a look at the tour dates that Tye will be joining the band…

4/17 – Bogota, Colombia
4/19 – Sao Paulo, Brazil
4/21 – Curitiba, Brazil
4/23 – Porto Alegre, Brazil
4/25 – Paternal, Argentina
4/27 – Santiago, Chile
