EP. 285 - Slipknot Production Coordinator (Simon Robinson)

Sappenin’ Podcast with Sean Smith

Duality! Production coordinator, Slipknot touring crew member and former zoo keeper, Simon Robinson, is our guest on Episode 285 of Sappenin’ Podcast! In this special conversation, we receive all access passes into life on the road with the worlds biggest metal band, his unique job responsibilities and looking after a team of rabid masked maniacs. Simon opens up industry secrets on the teams structure, backstage antics, hardcore spreadsheets, how many people the band actually hire, production set up, beer keg storage units, scary flame disasters, costume preparation, tracking down random rider requests, each members own show dynamics, new drummer excitement, festival vs arena schedules, insane fan gifts, his time working with Bring Me The Horizon, Skindred and At The Drive-In, the parallels between babysitting animals vs musicians, living in zoo accommodation, tour career advise, what to next expect from the knot and more! Turn it up and join Sean and Morgan to find out Sappenin' this week!
