Slipknot's Corey Taylor belts out his version of a Poison classic
We recently showed you footage of Corey Taylor performing Guns N' Roses' classic It's So Easy as part of his Corey Taylor & Friends tour, and now a video has emerged of the Slipknot frontman giving both barrels to Poison's Nothing But A Good Time.
Taking place Corey's home state of Iowa at the The Q Casino in Dubuque, he was joined onstage by bassist Jason Christopher (Prong), guitarist Zach Throne (Bruce Kulick Band) and drummer Dustin Schoenhofer (Walls Of Jericho).
The video was posted to YouTube by comedian Craig Gass, who opened the recent shows.
But Craig wasn't the only one watching. Poison's very own Bret Michaels has also posted a clip of Corey's performance, along with a rather gushing message.
"How awesome and what an honour to have the incredible Corey Taylor of Slipknot covering Nothing But A Good Time," said Bret on Facebook. "Corey and the band are absolutely amazing."
