Joey worked at a record store called "Music Land" and a gas station called "Sinclair's" he worked at the garage 4 nights a week for 10 hours after being tempted by a friend to get a job there. Joey likes to wear a black hood that says on it "Little People Kill People". The Tribal "S" that is now the slipknot logo, was originally drawn by Joey, Joey also drew the main Slipknot logo, and the big "K" and "T" may come from the fact that at that time he was a HUGE KoRn fan.

Joey is one of the most over rated drummers of our day. Every ignorant Joey fan thinks he is the best drummer to hold a pair of drum sticks. When the fact is that he is a amature among metal drumming, puts on a good show but should not be known for any innovating fast or technical drumming.
