I’d be pissed too.  The last Hallowicked I’ve been to was ’05 in the D and that one was EPIC!  Jamie and Paul came out rappin’ as Batman and Robin, they had those big fake fire things they had during the Hell’s Pit tour, all sorts of crazy shit.  Did all the classic Hallowicked tracks.  Black and orange balloons fell from the rafters at the end, sheer and utter pandemonium.

I haven’t been to anything new lately.  Last time I seen ICP was the BPB tour 2011, and before that shiiiiiiit I think the Tempest Tour.

I hope Rob really does bring that up during their meetings.  Glad you said that to him homie!

Hittin’ this up this year.
Second ever ICP show and first ever Hallowicked!
I’m like an hour drive so there’s no excuse.

Oh shit!  I’m gonna get to kick it with Rosco?  FIIIIYAAAAHHH!!  

Hell’s yeah, brother!
Looking forward to finally meeting the infamous Scottie D in person!

I’ve been to about 12 Hallowickeds and I can tell you this, when Hallowicked is apart of another regular tour you usually get almost the exact same show as the rest of the tour, only difference being they open with Dead Pumpkins (except for a couple years ago for the 20th anniversary, they changed up more for that one).  This has been the case more often than not. That said, I’ve opted to skip it this year and instead head down to Columbus on the 30th because 1) I haven’t seen the Riddlebox show yet and 2) Hallowicked’s taking place in Harpo’s this year and I pretty much vowed not to step foot in that place ever again after last year’s Juggalo Day. If you haven’t been there, the place is absolutely disgusting. It makes the porta-jons at the Gathering look like royal bathrooms.

I completely agree about harpos. Everyone I went to Juggalo day with HATED the venue.  

Yep, I remember going to Hallowicked 98 there and it was already a dump back then but now it’s ten times worse. Only reason I can think of for them playing there is it’s cheap. That or they had a falling out with the people at the Fillmore.

Correction. This will be my 2nd hallowicked in Detroit. When they use to tour it, I did see 1 in Philly and one in the burgh. But after seeing them in the D on Halloween night, those ones don’t seem to count to me. Even though they were awesome 

Heck, I just hope that I will be able to attend this year.  In the past, its always been a money issue, but not any more

When I went to the Fillmore last year for Hallowicked the balcony was damn near empty,,,,this could be a reason why they moved the show to Harpos…the juggalo day show was live as hell and you can pretty much do what you want in that place and i think that’s what attracting juggalos to this venue(i’ve heard of chicks getting trains ran on them in the bathroom in a wide open space and nobody cared)….but there are downsides to this venue(and it’s one of my favorite venues at that) prepare to get schooled on harpos:

1) as many have pointed out, it’s a piece of shit dive venue that has all kinds of health code violations,,,the venue is only able to fit around 1500 people; however, when an event there is selling(which hardly ever happens anymore) they will sell 2000+ tickets and everyone in their is sqweezed together like a can of sardines…this was one of the things that I hated about juggalo day as much as I enjoyed it.

2) it has a very bad reputation in Detroit…bands used to play there EVERY WEEKEND back in the day,,even as recent as five years ago. Local radio stations would post up there ALL THE TIME…but for whatever reason, bands stopped playing there and WRIF and 89X stopped supporting and promoting that venue. WRIF hasn’t been there IN almost a decade and 89X pops up once ever two years or so.

3) it’s on the east side of Detroit….the worst of the worst, and even,though it was cool for a juggalo day show in february, bottom line YOU NEVER GO TO THE EAST SIDE ON DEVILS NIGHT OR HALLOWEEN!! Everyone in metro detroit knows that, so juggalo attending this venue in HALLOWEEN…you will be fine in the venue. But plan on your windows getting smashed out in your car or get straighted jacked while your in the show THIS IS VERY LITTLE PARKING SPACE AND YOU WILL HAVE TO PARK FAR FROM THE VENUE AND NO SECURITY CAN PREVENT THAT!!

4) HARPO’S WILL EVENTUALLY CLOSE!! They have been on the brink of closing for three years now,,,they only have one show a month and sometimes will go two months without a show, and when they book the show as there it’s usually repeat bands that like the venue or rap acts that as talented as they are could NO WHERE NEAR turn a profit at the venue (jarren benton played last month and the attendance was terrible, last year jellyroll played and it was damn near empty). Have you ever wondered why when a act comes through there that doesn’t sell there’s 100 opening bands?? That’s why

5) leading into last point, harpos will not be a NEW HALLOWICKED venue for ICP,, it will either close or something very negative will happen on Hallowicked that would force them to not play there anymore. Mark my words, this Hallowicked will be fun but something negative will happen, cars getting broken too, fights outside the venue, maybe even someone getting killed(it has happened there many times). The only other two venues big enough for a Hallowicked show in detroit is the royal oak music theatre and the Fillmore(and possibly Comuware Arena in Plymouth if they are still open).  

I’m pretty sure the clowns are banned from royal oak theater. Even though it’s small I’d like to see them do multiple nights at st. Andrew’s. Always been my favorite Detroit venue. 

No

Question is how are they gonna do multiple nights at saint Andrews when twiztid plays the majestic every October 30th?   

There’s no reason they can’t play the same night somewhere else. There’s only so many tickets available for each show.
