I like how clown is holding his baseball bat. Epic go clown.

[surferpker]

You cant tell she is a hardcore slipknot fan.

I dont think he meant the mask was just to hide behind.... i think hes refering to the same concept that Maynard James Keenan of Tool uses, and that is....."You came to this concert to listen to our inspiring music and lose yourself in it, how can you do that if you're busy starring at me?"

I understand the artistic and anti social reasons for wearing the mask but it doesn't really defeats the purpose. Because by wearing masks they even get more famous. Plus all the mystery that is attached to it gets them publicity. I am sure they really thought about this as a marketing plan. They spend so much time creating those masks also. It is more than just a way of hiding from the media or putting less empathizis on their person.

Ahehe this must be the first time you understood sarcasm :D
