I saw them at the state fair a decade ago and it was only about half full. Super weird, but I guess there’s only so much overlap between people who attend a state fair (I was working, not attending) and people who listen to Korn. They were great, though.

Like, 10 or 15 years ago, Korn was doing some kind of back to the roots show at an extremely small venue and sold very limited tickets in my home town.
The local radio stations pumped this show constantly for months before tickets went on sale. And when they finally became available, they could not give them away.
Tickets were so limited only one station had any tickets to give away, sand they couldn’t gather enough interest in the contests to actually do the drawing, so they kept extending the deadline. And at the same time began frantically advertising that tickets were still available to this very limited show for weeks. Day of the show it was non stop pitches to sell the last few tickets.
To be clear, these tickets were like ten bucks. They weren’t expensive. No idea why they couldn’t get rid of those tickets but that was the last I heard of them until now.

Genre bands age terribly. In 20 years someone like Taylor Swift will still be selling out tours and get residency offers in Vegas. Meanwhile, genre acts will be working as accounts payable clerks in Bozeman.

That’s crazy, Korn is still relatively popular. They headline festivals, even.
