Korn Vocalist Creates Boy Band 2007-11-27 by Aakon_Keetreh | 27 Comments | Korn vocalist Jonathan Davis is eager to guide the next boy band. It's not a boy band in the classic sense, but a real band of boys who are learning to play instruments -- his sons Nathan, Pirate and Zeppelin. Davis's main gig is the vocalist for Korn, but he's currently going out on tour solo.
"I'm not pushing 'em though. I don't want him to be a rock star. I don't want him to do it unless he really wants to do it and take it up as his career. I want it to be part of his life. I want him to at least know how to play an instrument and just to have that satisfaction. Nathan was just with me, but he had to leave because he had to go to school today. He lives in Massachusetts now. He's really involved in music. He's been playing bass a lot. He's figuring out what he wants to play. Pirate's two-and-a-half and Zep's six months. Me and Pirate... Pirate's my little... He's going to be a drummer, and he's going to be playing at three like I did, because he's constantly, 'Wake up, wake up! Daddy play drums. Let's go baby,' because I had him out in the studio. So I'd throw on songs I'd been working on and he plays drums to them. He's actually hitting some of the hits, and I'm like, 'whoa!'"
We asked him if like several known musicians (notably Van Halen) if he'd ever do musical projects with his kids.
"F--k, yes! I've got three boys I'm hoping for a f--kin' three piece and I'll produce the s--t. I'll be papa getting them going. Yeah, it should be great. Fieldy just had a little boy, Israel, and so it could be we have a four piece and then we need another baby boy from Munky because he said he won't let his baby girl in our band. 'Hell, no,' I'm like, 'OK. I understand. I understand bro.'"
Jonathan Davis got to fly home for Thanksgiving with the family before jetting out again for a solo show Friday night (November 23) in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. He has dates scheduled through December 11 in Las Vegas.

| | | pirate?
| | | Poor Nathan, he missed out on the crazy name action.
| | | JD is a complete idiot. ok you have kids and they play instruments, that's really fucking cute, but they don't need an album. and whats with all the stupid names?
| | | yep, those kids are destined for drugs with names like that.
| | | Its rubbed off on his band mates too... Israel?
KoRn is terrible, JD solo career. Pish
| | | Pirate and Zeppelin huh?
| | |
his sons Nathan, Pirate and Zeppelin.
I don't know what to say when I read shit like this!
"F--k, yes! I've got three boys I'm hoping for a f--kin' three piece and I'll produce the s--t. I'll be papa getting them going.
Better watch out. They sound like they are on a role to creating another St. Anger or Ashley Simpson album!

haha
This is headed for a complete suckfest.
| | | Pirate is going to have a shitt-y childhood.
| | | parenting at its best.
| | | Im officaily dissapointed. I wanted to see a Korn boy band.
| | | To say that no one gives a flying fuck about this would be a huge understatement.This Message Edited On 11.27.07
| | | Korn needs to retire.
| | | IMO the best thing to do is to just let them be in their own bands...and have their dad stay FAR away from it. If my dad was JD and my name was Pirate I'd give him a huge WTF when I figured how much of a fucking idiot he was.
| | | what was he smoking when he named these children.
| | | Hahahaha... Just when you thought he couldn't sink any lower...
| | | If this guy named his children Pirate and Zeppelin he deserves to be dragged into the forest and shot.
| | | The fact that a three year old kid named Pirate can play some drum sections of KoRn's music says something.
| | | HE'S A CHILD PRODIGY

I can't deal with this right now. Oh, Senor Cuervo!
HE'S A CHILD PRODIGY
Let's go with that.
| | | At least their not named 'Apple'.
Like someone.
| | | Yeah, to hell with grammar!
| | | "Hi! I'm Pirate! I'm a chef!"
| | | a 3 year old on a drumkit, thats a poster child for birth control
| | | I also want to be named Pirate!!
