Just finished 60 Hours Among the Juggalos, which I believe now means I’ve read every non-fiction book (and shorter book-like product sold by Amazon) that exists about Juggalos and ICP. Woop woop! Here’s the complete list as far as I’m aware, if anyone knows of anything I’m missing, let me know:
60 Hours Among the Juggalos, Laremy Legel
Nights and Days in a Dark Carnival, Craven Rock
American Juggalo, Ken Russell
Behind the Paint, Joe Bruce
You Don’t Me but You Don’t Like Me: Phish, Insane Clown Posse, and My Misadventures with Two of Music’s Most Maligned Tribes, Nathan Rabin
Growing Up Wicked, Hannah Monroe
Living it Wicked, Hannah Monroe
I’ll start posting reviews in this thread. This is part of a bigger long term project of mine, which is to put together a website with selected reviews and links to the most essential books, articles, and videos out there, so that freshness can be peeped by both Juggalos and people who are curious but don’t know shit about it (like me a couple of years ago) alike. I’ve read/watched all of it at this point, so it’s just a matter of pulling it all together, which I’ve been doing little by little. The site will also include a blog about Juggalo-related media coverage and new shit that comes out.

60 Hours Among the Juggalos, by Laremy Legel: 2 out of 5 Hatchets
This is a short (33 page) piece about the experiences of a group of apparently well known snarky movie critic podcasters who did a Kickstarter campaign to attend the 2013 Gathering of the Juggalos to make the documentary film Whoop Dreams. It’s well written, and any first hand account of the Gathering can’t fail to be at least a little bit entertaining. The author also comes in with a lot of trepidations, but leaves with a positive impression, which is always heartwarming. Plus it’s only 99 cents on Amazon. The problem is, the whole “outsider goes to the Gathering” theme has been done to death, and this article doesn’t add much to what’s already been done. They rented an RV and went in a big group of 7 or 8 guys, which pretty clearly limited their ability to get outside of their own bubble and really have a meaningful experience at the Gathering. Whoop Dreams, the film that came out of this project, suffers from the same problems but is still worth watching- it’s beautifully shot, and they got a couple of great interviews, particularly with the guy who ripped his nipples off to show his love for the fam. 60 Hours Among the Juggalos is a pretty needless addition to the film though.

I genuinely thought this would be a thread about how to get “juggalo lit” which is where you huff paint until you get dizzy then slam rot gut vodka mixed with peach faygo. Sprinkle some meths on it and there you have it “Juggalo lit”.

I was expecting a thread on a juggalo long island ice tea. Juggalos cant afford all five liquors so its basically just a glass of rum.
There's a gateway in our minds
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
Where reptile aliens made of light
Cut you open and pull out all your pain

Your such a juffalo you don’t serve juggalo long island ice tea in a glass. Juggalo long island iced tea is cheap brandy in a plastic bottle with a splash of rock n rye.

I saw people huffing something (I think gasoline) at the gotj and that’s the first time I realized people actually do that shit.

in 2012, i saw a guy walking through the campgrounds touting that ‘galozine’. gas can in one hand, bunch of shredded rags in the other. ‘one for three, two for five!’
i told him it was absurd to sell nineteen cents worth of gasoline for three bucks.
he said, ‘you get to keep the rag…’
fun tip: if you see someone wasted off gasoline, sneak up behind them and clap your hands as loudly as you can.
awfully paranoid, arent you?

Oh shit, are you serious? She was the best in Shockumentary, I’d love to read any book that she wrote. You just sent me on a quest, if I can track a copy down I’ll send it to you when I’m done.

she really aint all that crazy, but yes, her.
I met her at the Gathering in Peoria. She may not be crazy, but she’s not normal either. There’s some other shit going on there. What surprised me the most was she actually smelled good. Some kind of perfume, whatever it was, it was pleasant. I always envisioned her to smell like urine and onions. Not true!!
