RIP Joey ❤

My best memory of meeting Joey was after a Murderdolls concert, after the gig at their bus, chatting away, getting autographs etc, took a step back and I tripped over the bands pile of empty beer bottles, went head over heels, knocking them everywhere, Joey just pointed at me, and said "That's alcohol abuse" before giving me a hand in getting back up. An amazing, quick witted genuine guy all round. We all miss him so much!

Joey cried cuz he got to play with metallica. The band he grew up listening to, and a band he idolized. He had an awesome opportunity to play with them live. Now all these years later, Jay Weinberg gets to play with the band HE idolized and loved. Thats some heartwarming shit. Full circle i guess in a way. Rest in peace Joey. Youre gone but never forgotten. Your legacy will live on forever.

I think Kirk has always been the kindest and most mellow guy in metal/rock.

Kirk just has the sweetest heart, upmost kindness and true-felt words to say.  His beliefs and respect for anyone  is just beyond what youd find in most musicians/people with his success or not.

Joey was such a badass drummer and guy all around. Still cant believe he's gone 😞😞😞

The sad part is a member from a different band paid more respect to him than the actual band he was a part of

RIP #1

Joey's passing was the first ever celebrity i ever mourned over. Slipknot was the band that would be my gateway into metal

Joey was truly one of a kind. He didn't deserve what slipknot did to him. The band died when they kicked him out.

What a great story, thank you homie! RIP Joey🙏♥️

I was at Download that year. Thought they were going to cancel. Then James came on stage and said Lars wasn't going to be there, he fell ill at a gig the night before in Scotland, and said we've got some friends to help us out. Joey Jordison, Slayer's Dave Lombardo and one of the roadies. It was amazing and a once in a lifetime thing. Also, saw Metallica do a secret gig at Download Festival in one of the smaller tent stages. I've never felt so lucky as a Metallica fan ❤

He was such a revered drummer, a great man... Loved his fans and always took the time for us.

Thanks for the video bro!

Listening to All Hope Is Gone is that much more meaningful these days. Last time the brotherhood was together.

I saw Joey (Jordison) perform three times; twice with Slipknot and once with Rob Zombie (2010). Joey seemed to be unlimited in his musical knowledge and his abilities; plus, a true "work horse" of a musician. He performed with various other acts, including KoRn. Which, I loved how he made KoRn speed up their tempos a bit and because of that he made KoRn rule. I love KoRn but they tend to be a little slow sometimes. Not with Joey, he made them work and keep up.

An example? KoRn song "Here To Stay." Listen to the recorded version. Then listen to a live version and the tempo is usually a little slower than recorded or about at the recorded version. Then listen to the live version(s) with Joey and it is noticeably a faster tempo; 'cause Joey is (was) a true metal warrior of a musician and he knew how to perform in any situation.

I'm very, very sorry Joey Jordison is gone. He had true heart, and true talent. Gone way too young.

Deeply missed. God bless him. Rest in peace Joey. 🙏🏾🕊️

I want to cry every time I think of how Joey died. Such a shitty way to go out for such an amazing man. RIP #1. 🥺

Keep in mind joey played 8 out of 11 Metallica songs that night AND he played a full Slipknot set…that’s insane stamina and energy that very, very few people could pull off

joey is a modern day legend in the drumming world. Inspired literally tens of thousands of drummers all over the globe. RIP Joey \m/

Joey was a talent unlike anything we had seen or will see for a long time. He had his issues outside of the band but he was a mainstay and garnered a lot of respect and adoration. I was a huge fan of vimic as well. Kirk is a class act and gets huge respect from me as well as others for these kinds words. RIP Joey

His death still hurts!! Damn I really wish he was here!!! ❤❤
