Slipknot To Play Sonisphere Festival 2011

December 3, 2010
Slipknot To Play Sonisphere Festival 2011Slipknot are set to headline next year’s Sonisphere festival in Knebworth, it’s been announced.

The band will make an exclusive appearance at the event, which will take place earlier than normal from July 8-10, 2011.

The gig, part of a European tour, will mark one of the band’s first performances following the death of founding member Paul Gray earlier this year.

“This tour is about us and our fans,” Slipknot said in a statement.

“It’s about celebrating the life of our brother, Paul and his legacy. The door is neither open nor closed. This tour is about burning down that door.”

Further headline announcements are due to be announced on Monday (December 6).
