I met shawn crahan last night. He played in my hometown in Iowa at a park. He was the nicest guy i've ever met, he made an effort to learn me and my friends name, repeatedly talked to us, and gave me a drum head and signed it. He's such a great, and real guy; by far my favorite member of slipknot
Man, all the Slipknot guy's seems like the finest people to be around. I would love to just hang out with these guy's having a few beers and listening to music. Fine people
He had a rough few years. First his dad died when he was on the road and the last time that he saw him he fought with him. Then his mom ended up in a nursing home with Alzheimer's and Dementia and he couldn't stand to see her like that so he couldn't bring himself to visit her until she was dying. Then he lost Paul and realized that they were always so busy doing band stuff that he never really took the time to just be Paul's friend,so he lost a lot of time with him too. That's a lot to take in.
@@joshuaperez441 Jesus christ he lost his daughter aswell?? I never knew that one. Man that's true hell. I've lost everyone including 3 friends and still have my mam and brother. But couldn't imagine losing a kid
I remember being able to give his wife a flower and a note to them both. I heard that she wasn't feeling well, and thought she might like it. I didn't want anything. Just wanted to do something nice for someone. Jim helped me get it to her too. Then on Halloween 2007 there was a quick question with Shawn in the outside the nine fan club. I was trying to think of something good to ask him when it was my turn. I finally remembered that video they played on the screen before their shows during the subliminal versus tour. I asked him and he commended me for paying attention to that. I printed it out and framed it.🤘❤️
"My dream, my dream, my dream, my dream, bla, bla, bla, bla", Jeez, he can't stop talking about himself. His drive and determination are quite impressive tho.
Shawn and Paul have been there the longest....still rockin'. Shawn's like 40 years old. I feel for him though. I can't imagine how much he has missed in those 10 years. As well as the other guys. And really it has been longer than 10 years for Shawn. 1992 Slipknot made their first recording the "Basement Sessions". What a legacy.
wow this guy is really deep. i'm new to slipknot and ive been watching these interviews to try to get a better understanding of them but so far he is my favorite. hes a pretty grounded guy and hes got his priorities.
The person I least expected to be the deepest and most understanding member of Slipknot. oO Guess the "Don't judge a book by its cover" quote kicked in here.
Just because of their angry music so many people see them as angry and bad people, when in reality it makes them more human and more real than anyone putting on a fake face for whatever reason.
I'd really love to sit down and just talk with him. I'd learn so much. It's wicked that he's a Libra like me too. Once on ot9 in 2007, he was answering questions from fans. I was freaking out trying to think of something... anything intelligent I could ask him. Finally it hit me. The video they showed before the shows during the subliminal versus tour. I asked him if that footage would be on the upcoming DVD. He complimented me paying attention and told me that it would be for sure included. Good times🙏❤️🤘🤘🤘
i never thought the creator of the band wud have such a different side to him than what he shows while with slipknot. i never knew a dream that big could just change the things around a person that they really care about. this is an amazing interview i really like it
Shawn is the homie. I was in the audience at a Q and A at Musicians Institute in HollyHood, CA while attending school there in 2011. Corey was also there and it was so great to be under the same roof as those two bc they're the most honest professional musicians. Glad they get to share their message with the world. A lot of ppl need to hear it.
I really like this guy. Im really not a fan of slipknot but I like this guy, he seems very wise. He seems very intelligent and into his art. Respect to the man.
look, both of you, its not worth it to fight over slipknots unique style! their my favorite band, and clown is waaay more than just a dude banging on a keg. he did great stuff in all hope in gone. and hes amazing for staying home for his kids.
To Shawn i have the utmost Respect for you and the choice you made when that happend and i would suport your choice if you had to do it again Slipknot brought me back to Metal and i am thankfull for that but allways keep family first!!!
yeah man and on stage usually the fights are almost a show of respect. Slipknot just roll like that if you watch Chris' interview he talks about how it's never "Why did you light me on fire?" and more like "Why didn't you use MORE gasoline?" That's just how it is with them.
Can't believe this was the official first time all members were shown without their masks, released as a DVD, and this is the camera work they went with???? Jesus cnrist..I remember buying this when it was released and me and my friends watching it and getting stoned. Maybe that's why I didn't notice how piss poor the camera work is.. Trying to be edgy and artsy fartsy..HOWEVER..
@adamscreams2010 I've talked to him quite a few times. I didn't even know who he was for a good while. He's really down to earth and doesn't act like a celebrity at all. Always said hi to me every time he passed, too (I work somewhere he frequented).
This interveiew is differs so much from another I saw. I the first one, he talked about his mask and why he actually 'hides' behind it. He said it makes him feel like he is the clown, and not Shawn Crahan. So not coming on the news because he gained eight, be he would just be the Clown. In this interview you see more of his personality. And that's for the good.
without a doubt the most mature guy in the band...and he wears a fucking clown mask lol. he has his shit together. many props to him for doing what he does. slipknot is full of so many different ppl. u got the antisocial members, the ones who are downright full of hate, the fun and outgoing and the isane mental cases. long live slipknot
1 drummer is the lead drummer= joey, he directs the other percussionists 1 drummer is the power attack drummer makes everything more powerful and insane(clown) the other drummer gives it a tribal feel with a better sense of Rhythm (Chris)
I met shawn crahan last night. He played in my hometown in Iowa at a park. He was the nicest guy i've ever met, he made an effort to learn me and my friends name, repeatedly talked to us, and gave me a drum head and signed it. He's such a great, and real guy; by far my favorite member of slipknot
Blessings and mad respect🤘❤️
The fucking camera zooms... I feel like I'm watching The Office.
Mad Alice: A Tribute to Alice in Chains & Mad Season It's way worse.
I'm laughing my ass of because of the camera angles 😂
kat ? 🤣
Your obviously not familiar with Clowns artistic sryles
Hideo Kojima's Voliminal
Hahaha it’s so contrived
Shawn has to be the most thoughtful member out of the 9 members, he is so caring and has such great knowledge :)
I've talked to all of them at different times
At different shows and I dearly love them all. Really great individuals, all of them 🙏❤️
r.i.p the cameraman when shawn sees this
Man, all the Slipknot guy's seems like the finest people to be around. I would love to just hang out with these guy's having a few beers and listening to music. Fine people
Same with the mighty Pantera. Salt of the earth people! NEVER rockstars, ALWAYS fans! ... (miss em)
He's such a down to earth guy. Mad respect.
The wisest yet most insane and twisted member of Slipknot
Is the camera man high?
I sure am
someone was trying to be "artful".
Am I watching a rap video?
It must have been cameraman's first day at work
I cannot stand this type of camera work.
Clown couldn't be any more real .
Valerie Villalobos love t
is patrick behind the camera?
Yep "upsiedaisy, downsiedaisy blurgblabmyfguv" oh shit hes spinning
Shawn is a very clever guy, I really like his way of seeing things. He's a genius
He had a rough few years. First his dad died when he was on the road and the last time that he saw him he fought with him. Then his mom ended up in a nursing home with Alzheimer's and Dementia and he couldn't stand to see her like that so he couldn't bring himself to visit her until she was dying. Then he lost Paul and realized that they were always so busy doing band stuff that he never really took the time to just be Paul's friend,so he lost a lot of time with him too. That's a lot to take in.
Sadly now, his daughter and Joey died during the most recent albums. It's incredibly sad, knowing now with what happened with Joey and now with Chris
@@joshuaperez441 Jesus christ he lost his daughter aswell?? I never knew that one. Man that's true hell. I've lost everyone including 3 friends and still have my mam and brother. But couldn't imagine losing a kid
he has such an awesome voice!
He is so inspiring. I want be like him 🤘
RIP Gabriele

This video made me have a fuckin seizure... thanks alot cameraman. 😵
This guy was my hero when I was little, now I know I chose the right guy
That camera man really was 100% serious filming this shit lmao
10 years with all original members?? Weren't there like thirty dudes go through Slipknot before their first album?
Definitely one of the smartest men Ive seen, much respect Shawn
"My dream, my dream, my dream, my dream, bla, bla, bla, bla", Jeez, he can't stop talking about himself. His drive and determination are quite impressive tho.

The wisest guy in the band
least hes honest with the things he says thats why hes so well respected gotta love this guy
@MsSpazzyman now that you mention it.. i agree, it's kinda annoying that the camera is constantly moving around >.>
0:50 that's what We miss now from Your music bro... :(
10 years with the same original members.......those were the good days
Different slipknot these days ahy brother
@FIFACommentater If you wanna talk old, you should take a look at Wayne Static. He's 46 already and still going strong! That guy is insane!
If you want to pursue a dream you have to put things second and then when you get it renember your family
Shawn is the homie. I was in the audience at a Q and A at Musicians Institute in HollyHood, CA while attending school there in 2011. Corey was also there and it was so great to be under the same roof as those two bc they're the most honest professional musicians. Glad they get to share their message with the world.

Listen to what he is saying and forget about the way he looks. Everything he says is fucking true. The man speaks the truth about life
I really like this guy. Im really not a fan of slipknot but I like this guy, he seems very wise. He seems very intelligent and into his art. Respect to the man.
I believe it was the Vol 3. Subliminal Verses tours because I remember Shawn not being at the Jay Leno show or something.
He’s one incredible man🖤🤘
Clown, one of the wisest people thp
You must agree that he do sound really intelligent!
6:22 did the camera guy lay on the floor to get that angle?
the amazing atheist plays in slipknot
39 years old. Respect this man SLIPKNOT \../
the cameraman thinks he's super fuckin clever
(oo yeah.. through the piano)
Shawns son Gauge goes to my school and ive talked with him a few times, and got a signed poster and some sticks.FUCK YES!
look, both of you, its not worth it to fight over slipknots unique style! their my favorite band, and clown is waaay more than just a dude banging on a keg. he did great stuff in all hope in gone. and hes amazing for staying home for his kids.
To Shawn i have the utmost Respect for you and the choice you made when that happend and i would suport your choice if you had to do it again Slipknot brought me back to Metal and i am thankfull for that but allways keep family first!!!
I like the camera work
holy shit you'd never think he was the psycho who started the masks & do all this crazy stuff on stage. mad respect for him & the band. greetz.
the best band ever!!!!!
Shawn is just an amaising Guy
he is a cool guy
".... guy In a band, and people are gunna die, people are gunna get sick" like jesus fuck, he saw it in 2004. RIP Paul and Joey
too bad..hes a good member..itll be sad if he plans to quit, but the future looks good for him now with the new album
shawns a good guy...has alota respect
Clown's definately my fav guy... He's the most normal, you know? He's the nicest and the most caring, well, I guess.
yeah man and on stage usually the fights are almost a show of respect. Slipknot just roll like that if you watch Chris' interview he talks about how it's never "Why did you light me on fire?" and more like "Why didn't you use MORE gasoline?" That's just how it is with them.
hes voice owns
Clearly the camera work was meant that way. Its an emotional expose. Photography and film are art forms after all!
Can't believe this was the official first time all members were shown without their masks, released as a DVD, and this is the camera work they went with???? Jesus cnrist..I remember buying this when it was released and me and my friends watching it and getting stoned. Maybe that's why I didn't notice how piss poor the camera work is.. Trying to be edgy and artsy fartsy..HOWEVER..
You got to edmit, that All Hope Is Gone did sound a little like stone sour :(
@adamscreams2010
I've talked to him quite a few times. I didn't even know who he was for a good while. He's really down to earth and doesn't act like a celebrity at all. Always said hi to me every time he passed, too (I work somewhere he frequented).
Family should come first, fuck work
very very interesting man. i will always love slipknot
i wouldn't say he's normal.
but he's definitely got that "messiah" kind of aura, the kind of guy you'd ask advice on what to do.
You must agree that he do sound really intelligent!
Badass
The cameraman is pretending he's on a roller coaster:3
You can really tell that Clown or Number 6 is different from Shawn Crahan.
I've heard the other band members don't like Shawn as much as the others/they fight with him a lot, is that true?
Shawn is my God!
RespecT!
This interveiew is differs so much from another I saw. I the first one, he talked about his mask and why he actually 'hides' behind it.

41 year old headbanger. Fucking awesome!
There is probably more to the story that we don't know about.
@ItzTheX They are all AWESOME Nuff said
they are wise
but they are on stage
epic concert
sid doing his stunts
and mick and corey doing theyre epic headbangs
crazy humans
gotta love u clown, but also love the pearons that is shawn.
The Clown doesn't bullshit.
Shawn's face kinda looks like a younger rob zombie
i no right its fucking all over the place its like ''what the fuck u cant see shit''
It' funny to see him smiling with his kids and then set himself on fire at concerts.
- And exactly how is that surprising? They are normal intelligent people like you and me, bro :)
did the band give him the grammy because he was the founder? or do they pass it around?
I'd like to know why this was filmed in Black & White for....
like clown said 10 yrs. without any problems, break-ups, etc. i think it'll go on for at least 5 more yrs.
He has to be the creepiest member of the group!
and the theme will probably "IT'S 2013 THE WORLD DIDN"T END" hahaha
Holy shit way to bash my dreams of being in a successful touring band lol. "Parents got old before I knew it, missed birthdays, funerals.."
without a doubt the most mature guy in the band...and he wears a fucking clown mask lol. he has his shit together. many props to him for doing what he does. slipknot is full of so many different ppl. u got the antisocial members, the ones who are downright full of hate, the fun and outgoing and the isane mental cases. long live slipknot
1 drummer is the lead drummer= joey, he directs the other percussionists
1 drummer is the power attack drummer makes everything more powerful and insane(clown)
the other drummer gives it a tribal feel with a better sense of Rhythm (Chris)
haha holy shit he doesnt need no mask this dude is scary as yeww shawn
Lol this looks like that one mosquito that lingers around in a room like...yo whats up, whats up yo...bitch look at me, I can fly
