Slipknot’s Corey Taylor thinks he just might have what it takes to front the “most accurate Slipknot tribute band in the world.”
The 46-year-old singer tweeted a link to a Craiglist ad from New Jersey-based Of the (SiC), who is seeking “someone in the same or near same physical shape as Corey Taylor, 5’8 … that has the same vocal range.”
Stage experience and the ability to “command a crowd and act the part” are required, according to the week-old posting.
“Please be dedicated, if you decide to be a part of this band, we need you to give it your all for as long as the band exists,” it reads.
In response, Taylor tweeted: “If you’re interested, I’m also sitting at 166 lbs…”
On Tuesday, the band posted a video message for Taylor on YouTube. “I don’t know how you found it but it definitely made an impact on us seeing all the positive comments,” the faux-Clown said.
He added that Of the (SiC)’s singer recently left "for personal reasons.”
