The identity of Slipknot’s mystery percussionist Tortilla Man has apparently been confirmed.
Online detectives have previously suggested Tortilla Man is Michael Pfaff, a bandmate of Slipknot’s Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan in Dirty Little Rabbits.
Now a series of photos from a cave in Slovenia appear to confirm that Tortilla Man is Pfaff.
Crahan, drummer Jay Weinberg and a man who appears to be Pfaff were photographed at the Postojna Cave. The photos appear on the cave’s Facebook page, together with an image of the signatures of Crahan, Weinberg and Pfaff.
The mystery musician – branded ‘Tortilla Man’ by fans – was brought into the lineup following the departure of Chris Fehn, with some even speculating he was Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan’s son Simon – although that was later denied.
Internet detectives subsequently suggested Tortilla Man was Pfaff, who was reportedly introduced to Crahan by Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson.
Slipknot have announced that they’ll head out on tour across North America this summer on the Knotfest Roadshow.
