Watch this moshing policeman really get involved at Slipknot tribute band gig

Moment took place during Slipknowt's set at Sixfields Rock Festival in Northampton

A policeman stole the show during a performance by a Slipknot cover band at the weekend.

Newcastle-based tribute act Slipknowt performed at the Sixfields Rock Festival in Northampton, which ran at Collingteree Park from July 7-9.

During the group’s performance of Slipknot song ‘Duality’, an officer from Northamptonshire Police helped the Clown tribute member on percussion duties, hitting his truncheon against a beer barrel. See photos of that below.

A fellow officer told The Northampton Chronicle: “The crowd loved it. It just showed that human side to us, rather than us standing there with our arms crossed. “I think it’s nice for them to see that we are there to enjoy it and to look after them.”
