wicked clowns from outer space was my first..my first ICP and Twiztid show…was dope as hell..Wicked Wonka is probably my favorite tour and Shockfest was dope as hell too. Didnt go to the old shit show..I dont think it came to cali or I couldnt go…dont remember but definitely would be cool if they did it again.

Old Shit was good, I have two shirts from that tour, and I’m not the biggest Merchalo.

Sub zero temps in Rochester for that show. Not the best turnout but great vibes. Met Dayton Family and got “Whatz on My Mind?” autographed. They were cool guys.

Dayton Family was great, a gin and tonic in each of my hands, screaming to Prostitute Killa like a braying ass.

AMB was there but, ya know.

Ran into my late brother’s ex there, she started crying. I realized that I was humping her by the bar and was almost fully erect, so I told her to buy my wife a drink and get the fuck out of my face. She did. 

Ate at Dinosaur Bar-B-Q earlier with my oldest brother and friends. Great day and night.

The ICP was tops. 

I dont recall which was first, ABJ or WKFOS. I know my first show was in august of 99 though at the chance in poughkeepsie NY (funny side note, J said “po-kee-kee- new jersey on stage… juggalos played along) I was 14 years old. It was twiztid, blaze, ICP and…. i dont remember If ABJ – suicidal tendancies kitte and mindless self indulgence, if WKFOS twiztid blaze ICP and someone else. 

anyway as i said i was 14 and we went out to poughkeepsie because we heard the clowns bus was at a quality inn or something like that so we thought we might get to meet um before the show. We had no balls though and didnt get anywhere within 100 yards of the bus, not because of security but because we were scared little kids haha

so we ate at pizza hut, all painted up no less and went over to the comic spot called dragons den.  While looking around lo and behold its jamie maddrox!!! he was in there buying some batman statues if i recall correctly.  he saw the paint and yelled whut up, we didnt wanna bother him shopping gave a woop woop and a dap and were on our way

so we get to the chance, and i know some of you guys have been there so you know what happens next. we are all standing in the allyway entrence, and we got juggalos running around chanting, faygo showers you name it. time now – 4 PM In between this and the doors opening the cops come by no less than 6 times telling us to keep it in check or there would be no show tonight. you can imagine the chants that happened once they said that. Needless to say, they drove off, and we went to the show

3-4 hours later the door opens and we go in, one of the first 10 or so people we hit merch up. i picked up a large silver charm, and a few t shirts, my jonco mostastless jersey (which i dont have anymore and still want back so if anyones got one or knows someone who does, lemme know. willing to pay)and probably a few other things. oh yeah the front stage pass! We bought those thinking there was some front area that you could get into with the pass, turned out it was just a novelty piece lol 

I dont recall the opening, but i remember blaze came out and did probably a 30 minute set. i didnt know who he was at the time other than from hound dogs, but it was ok, nothing special

twiztid came out, and MAN jamie was FAT (i got pics from that show ill post up when im at home) but from that show forward, twiztid was my jams.  they did a set that was pretty much mostasteless island, and a few HOK tracks, i recall bad dreams. I got up to the front of the stage at this point, covered in sweat and paint, and you name it, but i got there dead center against the stage (no barracades) and jammie handed me a gift while rapping. it was wrapped in paper and green ;) man was it good too. I dont know if he remembered me from a few hours earlier at the comic shop or if he just felt like givin out some love. (it was unused btw it wasnt like he was passin to the left or something)

then it was time for the clowns. I was a fan since riddlebox but my parents wouldnt let me go to see them until high school so it was finally time. they did an awesome show. they pulled out all the stops. J was not to long outa his mental help stage and he was skinny (for J) still had dreads, shaggys head was shaved. I dont recall the set, too many shows that all flow into each other make that part of the memory hard. but i do remember getting on stage a few times, this was when you could still stage dive. i grabbed a faygo from the stage and shaggy grabbed me in straight clown fashion from the back of the pants and the top of the shirt, did a spin move and tossed me into the crowd. Scary but awesome at the same time.

I do remember they ended the show with pass me by or nothings left.

we got in the car, soaked and cold, drove to mcdonalds and got ourselves some bigmacs, and went home to wake up and go to school in the morning

to this day, that is one of the best days of my life.
