Yes, it's true. I met the band in 2005 and saw their roadies carrying packs of Depends onto one of their tour buses.

I asked one of the members of As I Lay Dying - who were on tour with them at the time - and they confirmed that a few members of Slipknot Wear them while performing because they couldn't take bathroom breaks during their sets plus constant touring causes stress and stomach aches, plus eating spoiled food from being constantly heated, cold, re-heated causes bacteria and germs to grow.

He didn't tell me which members but I have a feeling that it was Chris #3, Shawn #6, Craig #5 and Paul #2 since they were all pretty overweight at the time.

Lmao.. just ridiculous. They're millionaires, hire a chef for road trips and buy fresh food they make and go to the bathroom before the 1 hour show.

It's not always that easy on tour, especially when you're doing tons of photoshoots and interviews and always traveling - and can't shit on the tour bus either.

These days each member has their own bus, but back in 2005 they only had 3 and still have to share them with the road crew, merch guys, management (road, stage, general management) plus their own press guys (photographer & videographer) plus another press guy from a magazine like Revolver or Rolling Stone - it was a packed tour back then - imagine how big their crew is nowadays.

Sid #0 was the one who everyone assumed wore them because he was the most active guy in the band - jumping into the crowds, off speakers and balconies, setting himself on fire, fighting with the other members - and watch their earlier performances from 2000 to 2004 - Sid's coveralls are extra baggy and he waddled a lot on stage - probably because of a full diaper - but seriously it looks like he walks like a diaper wearing baby in some their videos.

That's disgusting. I wonder how many poop loaded diapers exploded on the audience.

Reminds me of a messed up GG Allin situation.

Their crew jokingly referred to him as "Shid The Turd" - He calls himself Sid The 3rd because his real name is Sid Wilson III - he's the 3rd in line of British Sid Wilson's - And was originally born in the UK.
