Jim Root on ToneTalk tonight

[DrewJD82]

Not sure if there are that many Slipknot fans here, but in case anyone wanted to catch it live- (8pm Est)



I’ll definitely be watching this. I got a whole new appreciation for those guys after learning some of their tunes and I haven’t stopped playing in drop A for the last 2 weeks, I’m interested in his experiences tuning that low and dialing in tones.

He lives in South FLA. Surprised you have not crossed paths with him.

He actually lives in Jacksonville.

I swear he was on some kind of ManCave YT channel awhile back and
was in the Southeastern FLA area. Ft. Lauderdale? Pompano Beach or
some such??

 

[DrewJD82]

He’s just north of Orlando now, he said in this episode he recently moved from Jacksonville and named a local luthier that I Google-creeped.

Good episode. He dropped a ton of info the bigger Slipknot fans would be eating up, especially around that Look Outside The Window album. I totally forgot he used to use DC-5’s, you don’t hear about those amps much.
