Slipknot's Joey Jordison To Tour With Rob Zombie

March 5, 2010
Slipknot's Joey Jordison To Tour With Rob ZombieSlipknot drummer Joey Jordison is to tour with rock legend Rob Zombie throughout the spring and summer, Roadrunner Records have confirmed.

The sticks man will join Zombie on the dual headlined Gruesome Twosome tour of North America with Alice Cooper which kicks off in Wyoming on May 5th and wraps up in Oklahoma City on August 14th.

However, Jordison will make his live debut at the 2010 Revolver Golden Gods Awards, held on April 8th at Club Nokia in Los Angeles.

“I am honoured, proud and excited to announce that I have joined the ranks as the new touring drummer for Rob Zombie,” Jordison said.

“I’ve been a fan of Zombie’s since the beginning. I’ve toured with them and have always wanted to play for them. When John 5 called me up to ask if I knew any drummers I could recommend, I said, only half-jokingly, ‘Yeah, me!”

Rob Zombie added: “Joey is an absolutely crushing drummer and I am thrilled to have him as part of the Zombie family. His amazing skills promise to take the live show to a whole new level of insanity.”
