He worked as a tech before, he did Mastodon, Coheed and Cambria and some other bands. But I guess when you're in Slipknot and have the resources, you hire a guy and make your life easier.
@@alanheyes694Yes, he also does those things himself (if I remember correctly he built the rackmounts for himself, Root and Thomson) but in a band like Slipknot as a musician you need a tech to help you manage all your gear. Tech is also needed during the shows to switch to back ups incase something breaks and in many bands they also handle the effects that the musician uses and obviously smoothen out the performance by being ready with the next instrument the musician needs.
V-Man: What the fuck you on about now you bellent? Butler: Sir, you were supposed to say- V-man: What? That you're not funny? That much is obvious... Butler: ...... V-man Oi Butler! Make yourself useful and bring me some chips!
Yeah exactly. Give it some time. Anytime a band member is replaced us fans hate it and look for anything to be negative and point it out. He will be loved at some point. Seems funny and cool and is seriously skilled
Titaniam_w0lfie123 AJ gaming I love alessandro, the hate for Alessandro pisses me off, his playing is cool and also it’s always great to have a Brit in Slipknot. Some diversity’s always great
That day, V-Man was amazed to discover that when Bass Butler was saying "As you wish," what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day, V-Man realized he truly loved him back.
@@josephfigueroa3527 While you're entitled to your opinion, I respectfully disagree. The End, So Far is full of moments that allow V-Man, Jay, and even Pfaff to show off exactly how talented they really are. There are tons of beautiful little bass runs in "Adderall", "The Dying Song" (the pull-off bass run before the breakdown in this song may be my favorite moment of bass wizardry on the album), "The Chapeltown Rag", and "De Sade" which opens with a tasty little emotional bass solo. Never mind that the verses to "Acidic" are just drums, bass, and vocals. As important and as special as the original line-up of Slipknot was and always will be, this current lineup of the band is unbelievably talented, and they've delivered an album in The End, So Far that - while it isn't perfect - is populated by moments of brilliance, and is an album for which the band should be extremely proud, and I'm anxious for what Slipknot's future holds.
Sid's parents are both British and he spent much of his childhood in Britain. He still visits his grandmother every year in (I think) Portsmouth. You can say Slipknot is an American/British band
Finally a different member of Slipknot appears on something by himself, as good as Jay has improved over time, he just really got annoying being the only one appearing in drum cams, magazines, many things by himself like he's the center of attention. Fresh breath.
I mean, when Slipknot hired an Englishman on bass they must have known he'd have to bring his butler on tour too, right? How is an Englishman unexpected to live without his butler to assist??
Videos with Jim : New Fender Prototypes, incredible playing, in depth conversations
Videos with VMan : ARE YOU TELLING ME PORKY PIES?
Nah gotta be like this
Jim:You know?
Vman:ha ha haha ha ha hahaha ahah porky pies more beeeeeer
i was your 666th like :)
Only Brits understand
Isn’t he Australian?
@@ayoutubeaccount864 he is English my old bean.
Vman should bring his butler on tour. “Oi butler!”
He actually does, that's his tech.
SD-Bassist I thought he was his own tech. Am I wrong?
He worked as a tech before, he did Mastodon, Coheed and Cambria and some other bands. But I guess when you're in Slipknot and have the resources, you hire a guy and make your life easier.
SD-Bassist I suppose so.

Butler: “how about another joke V-Man?”
Reece Hinson your pfp makes this joke way better😂😂
You got 666 likes I’m not gonna ruin that
Oi Butler!

This is for the lot of you that forgot Slipknot is 11.11% British.
V-Man is also Italian tho, in fact he's eating spaghetti
@@cracktalestuff1176 spaghetknot
@@vilespecter new Slipknot tribute band from Italy i guess..
Captyn they’re actually 22.22% because sid is English
@@charliejordan438 wut lol Sid is American
1:57 the fact he slurped the noodle through his mask
Porco dio è uno spaghetto
@@mondial2761 Infatti diocane
@@mondial2761 che bello che è trovare italiani in giro
That’s why he has those holes in his mask
@@mondial2761 whatever,
mamma mia
Best product demo in history. Whoever thought of this deserves a raise.
Orange product demos are amazing. The Brent Hinds one is hilarious.
Interesting how he wears a gruesome mask and outfit with black face paint looking badass as hell but sounds like an a Brit who drinks in pubs happily
Go to a British pub and tell the locals they're not 'badass'. I'd imagine you'd be leaving in an ambulance.
Because he is British
This is how you make a bass demo, no boring blues and slap
1:42
Left Behind sounds amazing through that
B-A-M F-A-N didn’t even notice it was that, weird because they don’t even play that live any more, I don’t think
It really does
B-A-M F-A-N that’s what I thought of too lol
1:48 so does surfacing
nokotoko ?
I still can't believe Vman is the only Brit in the band
I thought he is an aussie
Edit: i just looked up the wicky i was lied to
He does sound Aussie though
@@TheEchelon Its uncanny
As an Aussie, he sounds nothing like an Aussie 😂
@@lachlandouglas6656 Its true. How the accents can get confused is so baffling
GO V-Man - 'PORKY PIES' ! LOL.
Porky pies
Yo
It means lies 🤙🏻
why does v man get so much hate? he’s a phenomenal bass player
Cause he’s not Paul Gray.
Yeah exactly. Give it some time. Anytime a band member is replaced us fans hate it and look for anything to be negative and point it out. He will be loved at some point. Seems funny and cool and is seriously skilled
Titaniam_w0lfie123 AJ gaming I love alessandro, the hate for Alessandro pisses me off, his playing is cool and also it’s always great to have a Brit in Slipknot. Some diversity’s always great
They got lucky getting him. He appears to fit right in to the band as well
@@user-xw6uh3yp7g he even once said he will never be Paul Gray
"do you think you can handle that, you bell-end" that is proper talk.
Only if he said wanker, twat, and nobhead as well😂
The Americans in these comments only picked up on "porky pies" because they probably don't know what a "bellend" is 😂
I Wish V man got to do more stuff like this. He's fucking hilarious.
2:20 was pretty sick
V slipping that noodle is the thing I never thought I would need in my life *LOL*
This is the greatest add I've ever seen
I don’t even play bass but now i want to
But remember that the butler costs extra
@Go Hyuck Yourself The gimmick known as slipknot. I take it you don't like the band
Go Hyuck Yourself and how are they a gimmick?
@@weareplayingunorightnow2054 I love slipknot to bits but their gimmick is the masks, which is practically all of their main image
That day, V-Man was amazed to discover that when Bass Butler was saying "As you wish," what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day, V-Man realized he truly loved him back.
I understood that reference!
Why does vman sound like eddie hall
Because his bass playing has the mass of Eddie Hall
In the words of Eddie “I’m just reaaaalllllyyyy thirsty right now”
V man dehydrated
Why does Eddie Hall sound like V-Man?
This is why I love the American division of Orange - dudes just having a good ole time. Reminds me of the hijinks of old friends of mine...
Well.....
For whom the bell tolls?!!
Vman: ting ting ting! Hey Butler!
OI BUTLAH!!
3:00 was my favorite part "what's with those fucking sleeves"
"Think you can handle that you bellend?" - V-man is my favourite now
I had no idea how funny V Man was. This was excellent
Just coming through to say that is surprisingly fantastic bass tone.
1:55 classic
Oii! Butler play me Unsainted by Slipknot.. or else!!!!.....
And bring Clown in there for that leg swing
The video is hilarious and the Bass Butler sounds like everything I would ever need for a massive bass tone
VMan is great. I wish Slipknot would write more groove-driven material like what VMan was just riffing on at 0:51. That bass tone is fucking evil.
You see, the top dogs' egos would never allow the sound to change in any direction that doesn't put them in the forefront.

This is the greatest bass demo video I've ever seen. V-Man is amazing.
This is, without a doubt, the dumbest video I have seen in a long time.
Please make more!
That first tone is absolute 🔥
This video was like a fever dream.... And a good one at that
never realized how much personality v-man brought to slipknot until this video
I thought he was Aussie ontil he said porky pies and that's one of the most British things you can say 😅
Imagine vman and him but in the spongebob movie bar scene
V-man actually is my favorite slipknot member. He rocks that bass and hes funny😂
1:57 I'm so confused
He’s the most British person I’ve ever heard
Im just so glad we got a UK guy in slipknot man
Sid's parents are both British.
Sid's parents are both British and he spent much of his childhood in Britain. He still visits his grandmother every year in (I think) Portsmouth. You can say Slipknot is an American/British band
That was the best ad/demo I've ever seen.
i needed to hear Vman say Nonce once and my life is complete
What a guy happy this guy is able to step up and make paul proud
That British witt lmao
I dont play bass but want one of these!!!
*WHY VMAN SUCH A CUTIE PIE?*
*HE SO CUTE AAAAAAAAAA*
*IN THE WHOLE VID I WAS WISHING I COULD HUG HIM*
is it unhealthy that i come here twice a week?
Finally a different member of Slipknot appears on something by himself, as good as Jay has improved over time, he just really got annoying being the only one appearing in drum cams, magazines, many things by himself like he's the center of attention. Fresh breath.
Chris Suarez totally agree
Oh...this is just great! Love it!
3:17 minute of Vman interview
2:20 Can i just go slay demons now? (Doom dad joke)
Vmans voice sounds dubbed over
Man i want him to do backing vocals 😂
This thing sounds awesome
Wait so ur telling me that I can get the best sounds from these amazing products? Can i get them for free? Cause mans skint.
Ok, this was utterly fantastic. Oi! Butler!
Poor Darren.
He is simply the best
I think Kyle is financing these videos. He already defeated Troy on a bass-off.
V man is so British 😂
Damn delicious monster tone
0:51 need the bass tab 😂
The fact he's British makes it so much better lol.
Amazing advert, amazing playing, amazing tone
Orange's take on the Tech 21 DP3X. The main reason I bought that one is because it is designed to resemble Bi amping.
Vman is lit
He's proper British I fucking love it
Thanks for the Senior quote
He’s like yeah I would never use this in my fooken life
VMan from slipknot tries the butler
The best bands have British bassists.
V-man has sass I love it
Yep he does, funny as hell. Love his colored lights on his bass.
Orange has resorted to shitposting for their ads.
Please do this more.
I was really hoping there would be a "Lady and the Tramp" moment between VMan and the butler.
ArE yOu TeLlInG mE pOrKeY pIeS?!
This was great :'D
This video is fucking rad, and those tones are ON POINT!!!
Troy Sanders will be a proud brother
*has never heard VMan Speak before*
...is that Jim Sterling?
(I know he's not but I wasn't expecting that voice)
lol love this dudes humor XD and he knows how to slap a bass!!!
Vman eating the spaghetti fucking sent me
When it comes to drinking beer, the Brit will drink that American under the table
Hahaha always the best gear and the funniest company!
Why dont you add a couple ferns. it will be really fun
When he played Left Behind and Eyeless tho 😳
I mean, when Slipknot hired an Englishman on bass they must have known he'd have to bring his butler on tour too, right? How is an Englishman unexpected to live without his butler to assist??
I fucking love this man 😂
If you told me in Iowa era that a Slipknot member would one day slurp spaghetti through their mask I'd tell you you were fuckin lying to me.
There's no way he gets paid enough to have a butler xD
Literally coming from a video where he was like no I wasn’t demanding anything 😅😅😅 that shit kills me
'do you think you can handle that you bell end?!' 😂
V man is fucking FUNNY!!
Awesome bass playin too!!
Can you use this as pretty much a bass head for a cab?
This was quality!
this is farking amazing!! BUTLERR BUTLERRR
AHAHA props on the vid you got my sub
The correct way to advertise a product.
What if Vman took off the mask and it was actually James Corden?
Thank god vman parties
I fucking love alessandro
Great to have an Englishman in Slipknot!
