The famous neo-metal band of the 90s set the arenas ablaze for their second appearance.
From 8 am on the morning of June 27, we come across Slipknot t-shirts everywhere in town. And those who like Cynthia, Emma, Tamara, Sarah, Rim and Mattéo are already waiting at noon in front of the arenas of Nîmes have a strategy in mind: rush to the crash – this secure area at the head of the pit – to be able to both enjoy the concert closer and not be swept away in the pogos unintentionally. An entire program !
Infernal atmosphere. Midi Libre – MiKAEL ANISSET
The young fans, all from the region, will in any case have had their money’s worth: for 90€ of pit tickets, they hope for at least an hour and a half of concert from the famous group of nü-metal of the 90s: “We want an energetic concert that gets you moving!”
The fires of love
Promise kept. Explosive from the first note (literally a detonation), Slipknot, its disturbing masks and its well-calculated distressing atmosphere deliver an explosive concert after the equally enigmatic Sleep Token.
A smell of kerdane, the alcohol used in pyrotechnic effects, floats in the arenas while heads tilt to the rhythm of percussion.
Perfect setting to declare his love: “This is our second concert in one of the fucking most beautiful places we have ever played. And one of our favorite concerts of the last tour!”, declaims in English the singer Corey Taylor, just recovered from a sinus infection, and obviously on fire!
Energy, he will not lack. Or security: at least twenty security guards secure access to the stage, ensuring in particular that the pogoters become slammers, surfing on the crowd, land in the middle of the musicians in a trance. A great moment of spectacle.
