Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor tests positive for Covid-19: 'I'm very, very sick'

Slipknot (and Stone Sour) vocalist Corey Taylor has revealed that he's currently sick and has tested positive for COVID-19. Taylor says he is vaccinated.

As such, Taylor has cancelled his scheduled appearance at the Astronomican convention this weekend in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Sharing the news via a video message (see below), Taylor had the following to say:

"I hope everybody's well. I wish I had better news. I woke up today and tested positive and I'm very, very sick. So I'm not going to be able to make it this weekend and I'm absolutely devastated. I'm so sorry. I hope everyone has a good time and I promise you I will absolutely try to get back there as soon as I can.

"I should be okay, it's the flu. I'm vaccinated, so I'm not worried. But I certainly wouldn't want to spread it to anyone else. So, everybody be safe out there and thank you so much. And I will see you again, I promise."
