Due to overwhelming demand we have added a third show at the Hammersmith Apollo in London! The third show will be on December 3rd. Tickets are on sale and can be found at Ticketmaster.

On the first date of the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival on July 9 in Seattle, Washington — the first SLIPKNOT show in two-and-half years — DJ Sid Wilson reportedly leapt from a riser stationed at the back of the stage and landed hard, breaking both his heels. The UK branch of Roadrunner Records grabbed him for a couple of minutes in Texas to chat with him and find out what the hell happened. Check out the video interview on www.roadrunnerrecords.co.uk.

"[Sid] had to take his cast off last night, and I'm telling you, I couldn't even look at his feet," SLIPKNOT percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan told MTV News in a recent interview. "Both his feet were black and blue — and deep. The bruises go, like, 2 inches in. But he's up there every night, no problem. He's so out of his mind, he's got a big bruise on his face because he's not used to slamming his head in a wheelchair. So he's got a huge bruise on his face from smacking his head into his tables. It never ends. You think you're out of it, and then you're back in, on some other painful level. . . Sid was like, 'I broke my feet, but I can't miss a show, so here I am, in this wheelchair.' The good thing is, he now knows he's not 25 anymore."

Fuse TV will broadcast a special show featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the making of SLIPKNOT's "Psychosocial" video.

Message from Slipknot1.com:

ALL HOPE IS GONE debuted at #1 on the charts on release day in Japan and it was the #1 selling international album for the release week and #2 overall, only beat out by Japan's biggest pop singer. Thanks to everyone in Japan for their continued loyalty and support!

Altitude recently conducted an interview with SLIPKNOT percussionist Chris Fehn. The two-minute clip, which includes performance footage from the recently completed Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival tour, can be viewed below.

According to Hits Daily Double (the companion web site of music industry tip sheet HITS), SLIPKNOT's new album, "All Hope Is Gone" is poised to sell between 230,000 and 250,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release. The CD will go head-to-head with Geffen rapper THE GAME's "L.A.X." for the top spot on next week's The Billboard 200 chart.

SLIPKNOT's last album, "Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)", opened with 243,000 copies back in June 2004 to debut at No. 2. "Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses)" was the follow-up to "Iowa", which registered a first-week sales tally of more than 254,000 copies back in September 2001 to enter The Billboard 200 chart at No. 3.
