Why I'm Going To See ICP Next Week

I've been busy as of late, writing my first full-page feature for this week's Dallas Observer. In the same issue I also wrote a piece on why one should attend an Insane Clown Posse show, as the group are playing the Palladium on Monday, a show I fully intend on attending. Seriously.

Juggalos are constant fodder for humor beit on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, the SNL, or even Law and Order --and for good reason. But I think before anyone just blindly makes fun of a population set they know nothing about it would be good to experience the phenomenon firsthand. As one of my fellow bloggers put it, "My entire social life is the complete opposite of this event, and sometimes I forget that everyone isn’t like me and my friends. So [attending an event] like this becomes a valuable form of cultural anthropology and an object lesson in diversity."

See you there?

Regardless of what you think/feel about juggalos, free bonus MP3's are something we can all agree on.

MP3: Oreaganomics - Chi of Love
MP3: The Powder Kegs - La Mariposa
MP3: Gorillaz - Superfast Jellyfish (Don Diablo Remix)
