It’s not that Middle America will be won over to Juggalo culture. It’s that Juggalo culture and its detachment from mainstream institutions will come to increasingly define an America with a permanent underclass that neither hopes to nor can improve its lot.

To be sure, this is far from an ideal outcome. But it’s not the worst of all possible worlds, either. For all their devotion to lyrics glorifying mindless violence and stunted sexuality, Juggalos aren’t the amoral nihilists their detractors make them out to be. The accoutrements of the Juggalo lifestyle aren’t free, and even if they’re not in careers with upward trajectories, interviews with Juggalos reflect that many if not most of them have regular jobs. (ICP’s lyrics include this explanation: “[A Juggalo] graduated from…well / At least, he got a job / He’s not a dumb putz / He works for himself scratching his nuts.”) And while it’s not the Mosaic code, Juggalos do have an ethical code that includes respecting the property and persons of other Juggalos, a theme the Insane Clown Posse themselves stress in interviews.

The pictures that Murray and Cowen paint of America’s future are not hopeful—and both are loath to offer prescriptions. But if we are on an inexorable path to where a large swath of our countrymen are unmoored from the bourgeois virtues, kith, and kin, a commitment to the “Juggalo family” may be better than no commitment at all.

There are lots of ways to translate "straight-up bullshit" into legal terms, but these are the three specifically alleged in the complaint.

that picture actually reminds me of a GTA screenshot for some reason

I heard Eminem make some Juggalo/ICP mentions on his latest but didn't delve too deeply into it all. Does he approve of them now, maybe showing mutual civic pride, or is it a continuation of a feud, or what?

https://reverb.com/news/dutch-avant-jazz-pianist-and-innovator-misha-mengelberg-dies-at-81

Misha Mengelberg, piano luminary in the Dutch free jazz scene and co–founder of the Instant Composers Pool, died in Amsterdam today at the age of 81.

Mengelberg rose to eminence starting in the late 1960s at the nexus of the Fluxus and free jazz movements. His first recording appearance happens to be on one of the most consequential albums for the Netherlands’ budding jazz scene, playing piano on Eric Dolphy’s Last Date recorded less than a month before Dolphy’s own passing.

Dolphy found loving audiences in the Netherlands, and Mengelberg was among the key Dutch players finding inspiration for a native scene. The Dutch avant jazz scene, revolving around venues like the Bimhuis, would go on to become one of the most vibrant in Europe, thanks in large part to Mengelberg.

Mengelberg helped form the Instant Composers Pool out of a Fluxus impulse, alongside percussionist Han Bennink and saxophone player Willem Breuker. The ICP resembled the American avant jazz collective Association for Advancement of Creative Music in form, featuring a rotating cast of improvisers, including the AACM’s own members like George Lewis.

Through the ICP Orchestra and in collaboration with fellow innovators like Peter Brotzman, Derek Bailey, Steve Lacy, and Anthony Braxton, Mengelberg helped stake out a distinctly European free improvisation language steeped in space, careful listening, and a very Dutch free-wheeling and sometimes tongue–in–cheek attitude.

Mengelberg drew from Thelonious Monk and John Cage alike to create an a lyrical, impressionistic improvisation style all his own. His was a sound always ringing with jazz’s past, always aimed at the future, experienced best in the present.

i interviewed him once -- he would have liked being feted in this thread i think (certainly more than he would have liked that obit, which is made of cliche)

(vivid memory of a moment in a show he did -- company week 1987 maybe? not sure -- with han bennink, and bennink ceasing to batter his drums for a moment and lumbering the piano to delicately place a small mickey mouse figurine at the end of misha's keyboard)

all of the other obits were written in european

experienced best in the present

there was another, more loosely organized rally that same day of white supremacists and captain america cosplayers, the juggalo rally was better attended tho. they were joined by antifa who view them as allies against the alt-right, and socialists who recognize their raison d'etre as class struggle.

were juggalos always red? if not, when did they go red?

solidarity in the struggalo

lollo

(I keep thinking about this - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_Composers_Pool - when I see this thread - maybe the clowns should join.

i dunno about red, but they've always been about mutual aid ("juggalo family"). a friend of mine lived in a juggalo squatter warehouse for a while when she was homeless and her report was they all had criminal records but were all fundamentally good people who were supportive of each other.

i learned from a tweet the other day that my most fondly remembered occupy camp fixture ("nic at nite", who wandered around yelling "if you got a cigarette i need a cigarette / if you need a cigarette i got a cigarette / i'm nic at nite / i jones so you don't have to") was apparently only one of an entire squad of nic at nites, deployed to occupies nationwide by the juggalos?

maybe i have my juggagraphics muddled but have always assumed that they are largely from the alienated permanent-service class and as such are natural reds, as opposed to suburban professionals who are natural fash. as the juggalos also seem to be largely white i'm glad they are inoculating themselves against the usual american technique for bridging this gap.

forapper otm about mutual aid, they're rly used to thinking in terms of solidarity-- on the other hand every political anything does that, solidarity with whom's the question, obv

Shaggy comes up short trying to drop kick Fred Durst

https://musicmayhemmagazine.com/shaggy-2-dope-of-insane-clown-posse-attempts-to-dropkick-limp-bizkit-front-man-fred-durst-on-stage/

lol

shaqqy not dope enough

Hero

great piece of journalism

dying @ the failed kick

I’m not faulting the attempt and who knows what shags was on when he did this, but it could be said that if he really wanted to connect with nookie then he could have gotten a little closer

he should audition for the Slipnutz

man people who are harassing on that kick should step off, he got fully horizontal, not easy to do

also the full footage gives context to the kick. medal of honor to shaggy for service to art imo

https://youtu.be/O7pGeQEKVMI

he should audition for the Slipnutz

or the dropkick murphys, imo

xp Your link cruelly lured me into watching the majority of a Limp Bizkit song performance

We haven't answered OP's question, though.

DOES ANYONE IN THIS BITCH LIKE ICP

im down with the clown, if thats what you're asking

i have GIS'd "jugalettes" a few times over the years if that counts

lol

So, Violent J (of Insane Clown Posse, natch) apparently has a daughter who's a furry... and he's going with her to a con in his own fursuit that matches his ICP makeup.

I'd rather be flayed than listen to ICP, but I gotta admit, this guy's killing it in the dad department. pic.twitter.com/LUy6qAxGFC
