SLIPKNOT singer Corey Taylor has revealed his personal heartache behind the group's tour which hits Ireland on Friday.
 Hard rocker Taylor, whose group is famous for its scary masks, is missing his wife and kids. 
 He tells the Sunday World: "This tour has taken me away from home for six weeks and it's really tough on me. I grew up not knowing my dad and it's a huge f**kin issue for me.
 "Now that I've got kids, man, I miss them so badly that I'm prone to outbursts of stupid crying. That's not a manly thing to do, but it's hard, man, y'know"

 "It not the f**kin' work that makes the road hard for me. It's just being away from home. If I could fly in for every show and fly home, f**k, I'd do it every day."
 Taylor has a six-year-old stepdaughter and a two-year-old son. "My little boy, man, he's so there," he says. "He's got so much personality, I mean, ah, he freaks me out."
 But it's not the image people expect from a Slipknot head. "Ah, I don't give a f**k what people think of this image," he says. "At the end of the day we're normal people"
