Tickets for Slipknot's massive UK arena tour went on fan pre-sale this morning (15 October), and many 'maggots' have already managed to secure their tickets.
The band, who are are gearing up to release their first new album in six years, 5: The Gray Chapter, will be hitting the road for 10 huge dates next year. This is the band's first album since the bassist of Paul Gray and the departure of drummer Joey Jordison.
With support from Korn, the demand for the band's January tour is pretty damn high - as is evident from the following celebratory tweets. (We're not sure how many people out there are fans of both Lady Gaga and Slipknot, but we're guessing not many)
