Slipknot parody / "Sit the f* down" -- what's it all about?

The video in question, for those who haven't seen it (because surely you would remember it if you did)

 

 

 

So my question is, has anyone made full sense of Dom (who is under the mask) 's story?

 

From what I can gather, he was standing in the audience of a Slipknot concert and all 9 of them came out on stage (big cheers and all), and then.. "sit the f* down!!!" ??

 

I still don't understand.

 

And where did they get the mask x_x

 

I have yet to find a legitimate posting that explains it all. I don't know anything about Slipknot but I have searched the Interwebs and found no sign of a clue.

But what is "sit the f* down"?

 

I mean were they really saying that and why....

 

From Youtube comments: "They're making fun of Slipknot. When Slipknot performs the song Spit It Out the lead singer usually tells people to get down. Then when the song kicks in everyone jumps up and goes crazy."

Slipknot get everyone to get down during their song Spit It Out and then jump up when the song kicks back in, Dom is just joking about it

 

 

 

 

Finally I find the truth =) I could never figure it out. Haha I don't like Slipknot at all. But I'm sure they're just fine.

 

rly tho is the mask a duplicate or did they really take it >_> haha

Yeah I'm not a huge Slipknot fan but I like some of their songs, I was actually at that concert I linked to and they did sound better live than on that recording. His screaming voice doesn't record well but he is actually quite a good singer if you watch some Stone Sour stuff.

 

As for the mask, not sure, doing a quick search it seems you can buy them, they did change them recently though.

Says on teh Musewiki someone gave it to him.

 

In the 2nd disc of the Hullabaloo DVD, Howard can be seen in a Slipknot mask making Bellamy laugh uncontrollably by repeatedly yelling, in a mock Slipknot 'vocal' fashion, "Sit the fuck down!". Contrary to popular belief, Howard did not steal the mask, but was given it by a female fan when Muse played with Slipknot at Metalfest in Spain some years ago. Howard says he still has the mask and thinks it is probably in a box hidden underneath his bed somewhere. He chuckles: "I'll dig it out one of these days and put it on again."
