Slipknot's Chris Fehn Says Fans Can't Be Pinned Down
. (TeamRock Radio) Slipknot's Chris Fehn says he's loved watching the 'maggots' grow up and that the range of ages at their gigs proves heavy metal is thriving. The percussionist says that since the band broke big around 15 years ago, the maggots - Slipknot's affectionate name for their fans - have kept coming back, and brought new ones with them. Asked by Roadrunner Records to describe the average maggot, Fehn says: "It's tough these days to pin it down because there's everybody, such a huge variety. It's been 15 years now so kids that were 15 are now 30. Guys that were 30 are 45-years-old now. It's such a huge range and that's really awesome for heavy metal. "Not everybody that listens to heavy metal is crazy or out of touch, it's actually quite the opposite. These people are gonna run the world one day and it's a whole new world out there."
