“CMFT” will be released on October 2 via Roadrunner Records. He’s a global star, and his music with SLIPKNOT and STONE SOUR, as well as our amazing relationship with 5B, has helped to fuel DWP‘s growth over the past decade. “We believe that pay-per-view is here to stay and we couldn’t think of anyone better to help us launch our new digital platform than Corey Taylor. “To do a rock show on this scale, with an icon like Corey Taylor - while putting some of the behind-the-scenes heroes of the concert industry back to work - is an exciting step into the future,” says Danny Wimmer, founder of Danny Wimmer Presents. The Forum is one of the most iconic venues in the world and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate his debut solo album!”
Speaking on this groundbreaking partnership, 5B Artist & Media founder and CEO Cory Brennan said: “When Corey sent me a text saying ‘Forum Or Against ‘Em’, I knew we had something truly special and unique. In utilizing The Forum for this special steaming event, the team are not only able to put together a world class rock extravaganza with a massive arena production, in total, they are also providing work to approximately 80 event staff. In the rapidly evolving sphere of streamed events, “Forum Or Against ‘Em” is set to be an industry first, as Corey Taylor and his management team at 5B Artists & Media partner with Danny Wimmer Presents, the largest independent festival producer in the United States, to put on this one-of-a-kind, pay-per-view concert experience. It’s a celebration, and I’m so stoked to party with all of you.”
And I’m honored that The Forum let us do just that. Speaking about his upcoming streaming extravaganza, Taylor said: “I’ve been saying since the beginning I’d find a way to bring this music and this band to the people. Kicking off the event’s festivities will be a special pre-show event hosted by presenter/journalist Beez that will feature exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. Special event merch and bundles will be available during the stream.
