Slipknot’s Clown Anthropomorphize His Mask, Accuses it of Attempted Murder
This exchange comes from a recent AMA-style thinger Clown from Slipknot did with Live Nation via Twitter:

Given his proclivity for spouting nonsenical bullshit, it’s tempting to make a joke about how this quote strongly suggests that Clown is a schizophrenic. But I think it’s pretty clear that he was speaking metaphorically. Besides, I sympathize with the dude. I was Buckethead for Halloween once, and it was the second most uncomfortable night of my life (the first being when my stupid assistant accidentally invited all three Slayer drummers to my annual Memorial Day party in the Hamptons… awk-ward!). You gotta take pity on anyone who has to wear that shit and perform under hot lights for a living. Although, in Clown’s case, the tremendous amount of money he makes probably helps.
