Shawn 'Clown' Crahan has left Slipknot's European tour in order to return to Iowa to be with his sick wife, who is suffering from an undisclosed health condition.
Crahan informed his beloved 'maggots' of his decision via a post on Slipknot's social media channels, adding his apologies.
Crahan wrote: "Hello to all of our fans. Unfortunately I had to return back home to be with my wife due to her medical situation. Thank you for the overwhelming support for the few shows I was able to make. I’m so sorry for missing the remainder of these shows, I was really looking forward to being there. As always, I’m so gracious for your overwhelming support for our family. I will be seeing you all at our shows in July. See you soon and hail Slipknot."
