Fans were able to leave a more personal tribute in a book of condolence that was left at the Metal Hammer signing tent for the duration of the weekend. The giant, leather-bound book was open to those who wished to leave their own obituaries, thoughts or drawings, from midday to midnight each day. The book was passed to Slipknot at the end of the festival on Sunday night.
