Slipknot at Knotfest by Sarah Ebbett

Here is my experience at Knotfest sydney 2023.

The crowd at Knotfest Sydney was the wildest that I have ever been in! Even Corey Taylor pointed in my direction and asked what was going on. There were so many crowd surfers going over the top of me, even a person in wheelchair. I was getting crushed and I thought that I was not getting any shots at all with my camera as I was being shoved around so much. My jacket at one point got caught up with another mosher and I was being dragged. I was not having a good time, so I got security to bail me out over the barriers. It wasn't till I got back to my hotel and downloaded my memory card that I realized that I actually had some images. I have posted the best ones below.

I wanted to get a shot of Corey looking down on me with more of the lights in the background. This is the best I could do under the circumstances.

A funny thing happened which apparently does not usually happen at a slipknot show. Corey's love of Australia showed here when he put on a vegemite bucket hat over the top of his mask. To those non-Australians reading this, Vegemite is a thick, brown or black, salty spread made from brewer's yeast and is not to and can be an acquired taste.

A wider view of the crowd and the stage. I was more relaxed and I could actually enjoy the show. Next time I will see them will be at Rockville in Florida.
