Corey Taylor appeared at the Drop in the Bucket benefit concert last week, performing some great hard-rock and metal covers (viewable here) alongside a bevy of heavy-music greats like Jane’s Addiction’s Dave Navarro, Anthrax’s Scott Ian, Slayer’s Dave Lombardo, John 5 of Rob Zombie’s band, and more. While there, Taylor was gracious enough to host the RevolverTV segment below, interviewing many of the night’s performers and others who were there, including The Office‘s Kate Flannery and the night’s host, Henry Rollins. (Read an interview with Rollins about the event here.) The Drop in the Bucket organization held the event to raise money to build wells in Africa.

Hosted by Henry Rollins, the event will also feature performances by Slipknot/Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor, Jane’s Addiction’s Dave Navarro, Anthrax’s Scott Ian, Slayer’s Dave Lombardo, and guitarist John 5 along with other members of Rob Zombie’s band. In addition, artist Shepard Fairey, who designed the poster for the event, will be a guest DJ and actress Kate Flannery, from The Office will be performing a musical comedy routine with her ironic lounge act, The Lampshades.
