"The normally serene spring home of baseball&amp;apos;s Arizona Diamondbacks was transformed into a mass of pogoing teens on Saturday, April 25th, as Korn kicked off their Escape From the Studio tour, their first trek in nearly a year, at Tucson Electric Park. The 70-minute show focused on fan favorites and eschewed some of the more obvious choices. Funky interludes allowed Korn to step back a handful of times during the 14-song show, and stripped-down production gave the band the opportunity to spotlight the music. Save for singer Jonathan Davis&amp;apos; H.R. Giger microphone stand and a Korn backdrop, the stage set-up was nearly bare.\r\nBut there was nothing simple about the music. Sounds of a gothic church choir greeted the crowd as members of Korn &amp;#x2014; kilt-wearing Davis, guitarist James &amp;quot;Munky&amp;quot; Shaffer and bassist Reggie &amp;quot;Fieldy&amp;quot; Arvizu, as well as touring musicians &amp;#x2014; took the stage. With a dose of heavy beats the band ripped straight into &amp;quot;Right Now&amp;quot; as the wind whipped the sound around the stadium. A sea of hands reached for Davis and the rest of the crew during &amp;quot;Fake&amp;quot; and the growly, groove-heavy &amp;quot;Did My Time.&amp;quot; The monosyllabic grind of &amp;quot;Coming Undone&amp;quot; led nicely into a sample of Queen&amp;apos;s &amp;quot;We Will Rock You.&amp;quot;\r\nHalfway through the set Davis marched out from backstage with a set of bagpipes and teased the crowd with a few notes of &amp;quot;Shoots and Ladders,&amp;quot; before setting them aside for the frenetic &amp;quot;Helmet in the Bush.&amp;quot; He left most of his communication with the audience to the music until &amp;quot;Here to Stay,&amp;quot; deep in the set, after which he said, &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m feeling the motherfucking Korn love tonight, Tucson.&amp;quot; He recruited the audience to respond &amp;quot;faget&amp;quot; [sic] during the song of the same name in response to his yells of, &amp;quot;What the fuck am I?&amp;quot; And he didn&amp;apos;t let up during the encore, where he turned the exaggerated beats of &amp;quot;Somebody Someone&amp;quot; into another excuse to the crowd to grab out to him, causing the massive mosh pit in the outfield to sway back and forth.\r\nSet list: &amp;quot;Right Now&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Fake&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Did My Time&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Falling Away From Me&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Coming Undone/We Will Rock You&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Shoots and Ladders&amp;quot; (on bagpipes only) &amp;quot;Helmet in the Bush&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Here to Stay&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Faget&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;Freak on a Leash&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Make Me Bad&amp;quot;\r\nEncore &amp;quot;Blind&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Somebody Someone&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Got the Life&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
