Slipknot & Scar The Martyr drummer & song writer Joey Jordison recently answered fans questions with a little help from the guys at MusicRadar. Joey had this to say when asked about what he does in his spare time; “That’s a very small amount of time. When I’m not doing anything, I’m mellow. I’ll go to record stores and find obscure records. I’ll sit at home and play with my four cats. I do a lot of art, too. I have a bunch of artwork that maybe some day I’ll put into a gallery. But usually I’m demoing. I try to get a riff out a day and they all end up somewhere.” Click here to read the full article.
