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).  

Nice schoolage.

You win best post of the last few weeks homie, good job.
