Slipknot's Australian tour is just about wrapping up now, and I'm sure plenty of fans noticed that percussionist Shawn "Clown" Crahan was absent from the shows.
Corey Taylor addressed the fact that Clown was not present at the shows:

Clown recently revealed that his absence was due to the death of his father-in-law.

We wish Crahan and his family all the best in these hard times.
