Music Goes On - News - Slipknot Announce New UK Dates

I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

Following the postponement of their November UK shows, the masked madmen have announced six replacements. Following Slipknot postponement of their November UK shows due to "international tensions, current conflict, and growing safety problems involving our country", the band have announced six rescheduled dates in 2002.

All previous tickets are valid for the new dates which are as follows:

15 February 2002 - MANCHESTER Evening News Arena

18 February 2002 - BRIGHTON Centre
19 February 2002 - CARDIFF International Arena
20 February 2002 - BIRMINGHAM NEC

Some returned tickets may now be available for the Glasgow show which was previously sold out. Other tickets are priced £20 regionally and £22.50 for London.

Left Behind, a single taken from Iowa, is released today (29 September).

The band have asked fans to stay tuned for rescheduled instore signings.
