Steel Panther On Corey Taylor: “He’s a Musical Whore…There’s Nothing He Won’t Do for $50”
This year’s Shiprocked Cruise is proving to have been a Russian doll of spicy metal content, with all manner of Corey Taylor-themed stories coming out of it. First, we got Corey refusing to be the bigger man and doubling down on his Machine Gun Kelly comments. Now, we have glam metal baby-makers Steel Panther inviting him up onstage for a Dio cover and calling him a whore.
On Shiprocked, Steel Panther decided to perform a cover of Dio’s classic ode to the love that dare not scream its name, “Rainbow In The Dark.” When band decided to invite Corey onstage to join them in this sonic orgy, guitarist Satchell made it clear that the Slipknot frontman was aching for a little sweaty onstage attention, and he didn’t care who gave it to him:
“This is gonna be awesome, because we’ve never done this song — we’ve never done ‘Rainbow In The Dark’ — and we’re gonna do it right fuckin’ now with Corey fuckin’ Taylor! And I’ll tell you what, dude – I’m so excited because I’ve been looking for a new lead singer for this band for a long fuckin’ time. And I know that Corey Taylor sings in all kinds of bands, he’s a musical whore. There’s really nothing he won’t do for $50, including this.”
