Everyone’s favorite Juggalos- Insane Clown Posse- will be stopping by the Cabooze on Thursday, June 6th with more friends in tow than I can even list. With two stages going on (one inside and one outside), this is truly a huge event and something that should not be missed.
When Insane Clown Posse emerged from the darkness surrounding Detroit’s underground music scene in the early ’90s, the world had yet to imagine the impact that the face painted duo’s hardcore, hip-hop style would bear on mainstream music. Over the course of several Gold and Platinum albums, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope have shared their Dark Carnival mythology with the world, through their lyrics which range from the philosophic to the humorous and through their over-the-top live performances (the Clowns’ most infamous concert tradition: Dousing the crowd with hundreds of gallons of Faygo soda). The duo’s millions of fans — known as ‘Juggalos’ — have become one of the most studied and talked-about musical subcultures of all time. Many of their albums, including the Platinum-selling “The Great Milenko” and “The Amazing Jeckel Brothers” have become true classics of the horrorcore rap genre. Additionally, Insane Clown Posse’s annual Gathering of the Juggalos has grown to become one of America’s most eclectic and celebrated summer music festivals. The first entry in their new two-part album “The Marvelous Missing Link” was released on Tuesday, April 28 and opened at #2 on the Billboard Top 10 Rap Chart. The concluding chapter, “The Marvelous Missing Link (FOUND)” was released on Friday, July 31 to great critical acclaim. Thanks to their bestselling albums, compilations, music videos, professional wrestling promotion (Juggalo Championship Wrestling), films, outrageous events, television shows (“Insane Clown Posse Theater”) and unprecedented merchandise success, Insane Clown Posse has smashed through the ceiling of the music industry’s expectations to create a bona fide entertainment empire that shows no signs of stopping.
There are seriously too many supporting acts for me to give you a small bio on each of them but a couple of notable names would be Mushroomhead, Mac Lethal, and Kissing Candice. Again… so many bands– this is a full fest people! Don’t miss out!
