Talk:Joey Jordison

674: 647: 1506:"While in high school, Jordison attended a jazz school and hung out with cousin Steve Allan White. This helped profoundly to improve his drumming ability, which has since made him become the top rated drummer by music media across the world." Can we get a citataion on this? I don't know about you, but this to me sounds like something written by some mallcore fanboy ignoring NPOV. I'm considering editing it unitl someone comes up with a reliable source to validate it. 684: 190: 3475: 883: 601: 576: 3350: 2964: 2943: 2361: 2170: 2124: 932: 833: 476: 3296: 3280: 2927: 2915: 2833: 2337: 2323: 2267: 2238: 2184: 526: 414: 390: 2067:, you will find that joey uses 2 p-1000 pedal,not a iron cobra double, and that he uses a 14x6.5" referance snare. Ive seen slipknot live so ive seen the drums he uses and ive been playing the drums for years so i know what im talking about. You can also include that he uses Pearl Referance drums with a Piano Black with Slipknot S and gold hardware, which is also found on his page on pearldrum.com 508: 777: 789: 3247: 3163: 3058: 2849: 2291: 2228: 2198: 2138: 967: 359: 3316: 3513: 424: 1788:

Good points. I agree that it looks somewhat clutered with all the dimension etc, but the equipment section could be close to the bottom of the page so most people dont have to scroll through it all the time. And if the equipment sections of the other members is arent sourced rally doesnt consern the

1599:

I added Nu Metal, Heavy Metal, Death Metal, and Grindcore to the infobox. The first two are obvious based on him being in one of the defining Nu Metal bands, and all of his bands being in some form of heavy metal. The second two, on the otherhand, I think may meat some resistence, but I placed there

1096:

For some apparent reason, the Wiki all of the sudden became lifeless with no pictures at all. I took the liberty of adding a name image which i found. <--PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THAT IMAGE (Please change it). Also i found an image of joey at the drumset. later thought tell me that the picture is not

2244:

understand your response. This is a short article, but looking around at other musician GAs, there are plenty of this length, some with only biography and some with multiple things. For GA, what's here is probably fine, but going forward I'd suggest looking into other aspects of Jordison's career.

1766:

What if we included links to the sources in the "External links" section? I like the "alternative to Google", but I think it just seems cluttered when it's a list model numbers. As for the other members, not very many of their equiptment sections are sourced, so I don't know if they can be trusted.

1367:

Anyway, I'm going to remove that completely pointless reference of how fast Joey is rumoured to be with his feet. Especially since it makes no sense. First you're talking about how Joey and Roadrunner United, and then just out of the blue you get the following comment: "He is rumoured to be able to

1259:

That article doesnt give Joey all the credit in the world he deserves. Also, Joey has no tattoos (the only member of the band to do so), therefore it is incorrect to say that all the Slipknot members have the Tribal 'S' tattooed on them, in fact not all of them other than Joey have it. Slipknot are

1721:

Jordison's drum set breakdown has been added a few times over the past few weeks, but has never been sourced (though still not properly) until its latest re-add, though I'm still not entirely convinced of reliability. I would like to know why people feel it is necessarry to include such info. This

1807:

What if we added a few sentences of prose to the Slipknot section? That way we could give an overview of what he uses, but it wouldn't be the long list of model numbers. I just remembered I wanted to add something about him going upside-down while he plays too, we could put that in as well. How's

1750:

The info came from the manufactures websitesand both stated that this was in fact the set up for hi latest kit, so Im pretty confident as far as reliablity goes... As for if we need this or not in the article, sure people could find it somewhere else but atleast for me (and many others to I would

1402:

Flo also doesn't have a billion drooling fanboys that know little to nothing of drumming. Not saying Joey's bad, but Flo has that mention for a reason: they aren't a 'popular' band on the level of Slipknot and the people who listen to Cryptopsy are likely to be able to judge drumming better than

1126:

I removed both of the images. Images on Knowledge need to be free, and can only be unfree images when it would be impossible for another image to be created. In this case, another free image could be created. Also, images are added in Knowledge are added for informative purposes not aesthetics.

2728:

I added information yesterday about Joey winning the best metal drummer award hosted by Drummers Magazine and his current nomination by Rhythm magazine as the best drummer for the past 25 years. Also what he said about Slipknot's future. Took me a long time to get references from Roadrunner's

996:

Yeah, there's no way I was going to leave that bullshit about Anal Blast untouched. Don Decker is completely unacknowledged and it clearly implied that Joey & Paul formed AB for a laugh before they got down to the serious business of making angry mallcore led by a frontman who managed to

2243:

In terms of prose, this article is strictly biographical in nature. A more comprehensive article would most likely detail his musical style (drumming style, etc.), and critical reception of him as a musician. I saw that the last reviewer noted a lack of details on his personal life, but I

1334:

is there any actual documentation of his death? Any news article, press release, anything? I understand that if this just occured today nothing official would have yet to be made let alone sent out. But how does someone filling out a biography and Myspace find out about it before hand?????

1908:

I know it's been a while since this has been discussed, but there have been many edits to a newly added Equiptment section as of late, none of which have included sources. As I stated above I am not opposed to adding the info, though I prefer it is as prose, as long as it is cited to a

2611:

However, each have conducted interviews with major bands, and MOMH has been around for a long time. At the same time, the MOHM review is being used to cite the idea that Jordison is the most dedicated member of Slipknot. You could stand to have better backing for that

1363:

This is an online encyclopaedia, and not a fanboy forum for fanboys to write their uninformed and biased POV's. And nobody cares if you think he's hot or what's your fauvorite band. This is a discussion for the content of the article, not your personal preferences.

1938:

there is absolutely no way anyone from Slipknot was even remotely influenced by Satyricon (proved by their music insimilarities), also there is no proof that i can find in my personal research, nor is there any references to such located in the article itself.

2589:

According to the linked article, Jordison set a record as the "only artist to play the festival multiple times in four different high-profile bands," not "the first musician ever to perform on five different occasions at the Download Festival in

1866:

and I heard an interview where he talked about falling out once, I'll have to look for it. It'd be cool to have an explination of who came up with the idea or how the drums are secured to his platform, but there's enough to say something.

1722:

site should give a biography of Jordision and help people learn about him, not include every known fact about the man. I doubt people are coming to this site looking for the model of Jordison's clamp. I think it verges on

1491:

mask? Is it a mask made to look like kabuki makeup? Or is it completely unrelated to actual kabuki performances, and only sort of looks like some stereotypical conception of what kabuki makeup looks like? Thank you.

153: 1660:

When did he play for Emperor? I'm fairly certain that Emperor never had him appear live with them. Trym has been with the band since 1996. If nobody has any actual facts for this, it should be removed.

2581:

Later in the year, Manson revealed that Jordison had been working with him on his new album The Golden Age of Grotesque. Jordison had in fact worked on guitars but the track did not appear on the album.

2296:

It would seem you have some conflicts regarding the gear list. Since what musicians play probably changes occasionally, listing the "standard equipment" detailed in this interview is a good idea.

1394:

I think Joey's ability in the double bass drum should be mentioned, I mean, look at Flo Mournier's article, he's less famous than Jordison and his skill at the double bass drum is mentioned.

3553:

That is a terrible, terrible, awful picture to use of Joey for his main photo at the top of the page. There are millions of pictures of this guy out there. Someone please pick a better one.

4654: 1427:

I'd suggest that Flo is renowned by DRUMMERS for his speed. Go to any drum section in a music forum, mention Joey being a) fast or b) the best ever and watch everyone jump down your throat

1347:

cymbals instead. This once said it but now has been reverted to him using 3 stagg cymbals. Please change the section back to his previous state (When he uses Paiste cymbals). Thank you.

3403:

Jason Arnopp explains that its because one of their logos is a barcode. I don't see why explaining it should be in the article, plus it doesn't say anything about Joey's number... (80)

1913:. I have limited knowledge on drums and I am afraid that people will simply come along and add whatever they want to to the section if there are no sources to back them up. Thank you. 4619: 714: 490: 1248:

The credit is fine. He's getting enough credit for what he's doing. I also added in the Ministry info (it's a shame that so many people aren't interested in Ministry anymore).

4081: 4227: 4217: 4423: 4385: 4375: 731: 147: 4614: 2631:

Added source issues. I will scrutinize the reliability of each source... tomorrow. Most of them seem fine, though. I will also get to that copyedit tomorrow. --

Can you better source the second sentence? The article linked only says the tracks "may or may not" be on the album, as this was before the album was released.

1751:

belive) the wiki is becoming more and more an alternative to google. Also pretty much all other members in slipknot have a equipment section so why not Joey?

272: 1487:

only very rarely, if ever, wear masks, I am curious as to the origin of this kabuki mask, and its appearance, if a nice clear picture can be found. Is it a

This should definetely be interesting, as Slipknot and KoЯn feuded in the past. Looks like that's been made up. He'll be playing the drum parts that

into drumming and wishes to discover this info, I'm sure they can find it on other sites. So does anybody have a good reason to include this info?

4674: 4644: 4629: 442: 4365: 3667: 3677: 4624: 2969:

While in the infobox has a list of genres, the article does not have a musical style section. What about a section to his playing techniques?

1031:

He's like 5'3", not that this belongs in the this talk page at all. Talk pages are to discuss improvements that could be made on the article.

Jordison wrote and produced music for RU "as a team captian", but did he also perform drums as a part of his role as "team captain"?

And in the box says that he worked with Anal Blast, yet I don't see any citation. It doesn't even appear in the biograhy here!!! --

No, but he's a musician so isn't his point of view significant. All it does is give an opinion on Jordison's production quality.

It seems to me that Jordison's work with Slipknot resumes in forcing the band to cancel their tours due to his health problems.--

The meaning of the "#1" is a bit confusing until you reach the Slipknot section. Any way you can clarify what that means here?

What is that weird sentence tacked-on at the end of Equipment doing? It's confusing, oddly formatted, and has no source.

This review of a Slipknot album doesn't well affirm that Jordison is "one of the most dedicated members of the band."

That whole sentence puts Jordison in a more positive light than you can back up with either of those sources.

This article is very biased and does not give him enough credit. He has done way more than what this states.

1058:"He is arguably considered to be the most skilled and disciplined drummer in the alternative metal circuit." 4499: 4329: 4293: 4203: 4167: 4073: 3620: 2905: 2616:
