Stuart Galbraith sat down to discuss the delicate situation of booking heavy weight legends ‘Slipknot’ so soon after the death of bassist and primary songwriter, Paul Gray.

The band took to the stage on Sunday to bring the festival to a close and they gave a spine chilling performance that left everyone on a high. They were without a doubt the highlight of the weekend for me.

The set was full of energy and the crowd gave every last bit of energy they had after a heavy weekend of music. The setlist covered all four albums, and ended on a rather emotional note with the band paying tribute to the late Paul Gray with an added orange jumpsuit placed on stage at the end of the set.
