Not to be confused with Ruffalos, who pay tribute to their idol by wearing rumpled T-shirts and jeans and rubbing the back of their necks while smiling nervously.

the politics of juggalos and deadheads (every potential definition of the word politics here) would be particularly rich and confounding vein I should think

I read an anthropological study of teenage jazz fans in the 30s or 40s once, in a book of essays about music (there was also one about how music in 1988 was terrible and doomed) - have been looking for it since but can't remember anything else about it.

Okay but this is a thread about musical subcultures, and we should probably be discussing the topic of Juggalos.

Sounds rad! Are they familiar with the music produced by the Posse of Insane Clowns?
I think their fan base is affectionately referred to as Jugglers, but I am not sure.
Surely someone will enlighten me in due course.

A little known fact: The term 'Juggalos' is derived from the 16th century jurist Henry Gallough, nicknamed Judge Gallows, who was known for frequently handing down sentences of death for the crimes of frolicking, clowning and drinking of an ale called Saygo.

Yes, and fans of Steve Albini are called Albinos.
Fans of Los Lobos are called Loslobogos.
Fans of the Go-Gos... well, you know.

Personally the only subculture I'm a part of is fans of the 60s psychedelic rock band Blue Cheer.
Me and thousands of other Cheerios (as we're called) have an annual Gathering of the Cheerios.
I am curious about whether there are other bands whose fans have formed their own subculture.

Yeah, strange it hasn't been mentioned but the Grateful Dead have a pretty obsessive and insular fanbase known as Deadallos...
