This tour must fulfill some young aspirations for the boys in Korn, as they're avowed Faith No More fans (not that they've never played with the band before, just that a co-headliner must be pretty rad). However, Jonathan Davis admits that though Korn loved FNM back in the day, they weren't one of the bands that the boys from Bakersfield unabashedly ripped off.

“Everybody loved Chili Peppers, everybody loved Faith No More…but as far as bands that we just straight bit?” laughed the frontman in a recent interview. “In the beginning? Cypress Hill! If there was no Cypress Hill, there’d be no Korn. Because we’d imitate the samples we heard in hip-hop.”
