Something just came across my Facebook feed that’s a little unsettling.  A new story from ABC17News.com just surfaced that says that the Gathering of the Juggalos has been forced to pull out of the campground in Kaiser, MO.  With tickets going on sale, and the hype for this Gathering already off-the-charts, this comes as a big shock to us.  Here’s what the article states:

Insane Clown Posse no longer holding music festival at Lake of the Ozarks

Rap-metal group cancels amid growing public outcry

KAISER, Mo. – The rap-metal group Insane Clown Posse is no longer holding their yearly outdoor festival at the Lake of the Ozarks after six years of troubled get-togethers in southern Illinois.On Wednesday ABC 17 News confirmed with sources that promoters have agreed to let the local campground out of its contract.Last week suburban Detroit-based Psychopathic Records Inc. announced on its website the event will be held in August near Kaiser. The group is now looking for a different venue.The five-day festival had been staged for the past six years near Cave-In-Rock, an Illinois village along the Ohio River.

While drawing tens of thousands of people, the event also has developed a reputation for unruliness marked by drug overdoses, fights, arrests and the deaths of some Juggalos, the term by which Insane Clown Posse fans are known.
