2000 | Tattoo the Earth | July 14 - August 14, 2000 (United States) |
|
Tattoo the Earth was a concert tour in the United States which Slipknot co-headlined during 2000 along the likes of Slayer and Sevendust. The tour, with part of it taking place during the summer, posed a challenge to Slipknot in particular, considering their masks were found extremely uncomfortable, even under the best circumstances. The concert at Dynamo Open Air was released as part of the 2009 DVD 10 Years of Life Death Love Hate Pain Scars Victory War Blood and Destruction. Other bands that performed during this tour alongside Slipknot were Iron Maiden, Spineshank, Sepultura, Mudvayne, Nashville Pussy, Hed PE, downset., and Puya. Later, the compilation album Tattoo The Earth: The First Crusade was released containing two songs the band performed live on the tour. | |||
