A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Heaven
Corey Taylor/Slipknot/Stone Sour - Book - by C.Taylor
(2013)
Corey
Taylor has seen a lot of unbelievable things. The Grammy Award-winning
singer of Slipknot and Stone Sour's curiosity has drawn him into
situations that would've sent most people screaming scared and running
for the hills. Corey's ballsy enough to go into the darkness and deal
with the consequences though.
As
a result, he's seen ghosts up close and personal, whether it be while
combing through an abandoned house in his native Iowa as a child or
recording an album in the fabled Houdini Hollywood Hills mansion. He's
also got the memories (and scars) to prove it. For some reason, he can't
seem to shake these spectral stories, and that brings us to this little
tome right here...
At
the same time, being an erudite, tattooed, modern Renaissance Man, he
never bought into the whole God thing. Simply put, he's seen ghosts, but
he hasn't seen Jesus. Corey especially can't find a reason why people
do the insane things they do in HIS name.
That's
where everything really gets interesting. His second book, A Funny
Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven, compiles Corey's most intimate,
incredible, and insane moments with the supernatural. His memories are
as vivid as they are vicious.
As
he recounts these stories, he questions the validity of religious
belief systems and two-thousand-year-old dogma. As always his rapid-fire
writing, razor sharp sense of humour, unbridled honesty, and cosy
anecdotes make quite the case for his point. You might end up believing
him or not.
That's up to you, of course. Either way, you're in for a hell of ride.
