LOL so hard @ this:

Fun fact: Violent J is older now than Jerry was when he went into his coma.

this kind of thing happened to me, I went to see The Books in Milwaukee but screwed up and got the wrong week, so we saw a Mexican Wrestling show instead. obviously I don't regret the error at all.

significant overlap with grateful dead I would guess but disco biscuits. (one of my roommates in college was really, really into them, and as a result was almost never home)

2-tone.

subcultures w/bands versus bands with subcultures

Jerry Garcia is pretty much the last guy I'd expect to see in a Members Only type jacket.

Well, except for Violent J...

lmao at that juggalo article

Juggalos

Someone mentioned Throbbing Gristle upthread, but a better example would be Psychic TV, their fans being members/followers of Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth.

Eskimos!

Has Rocket From The Crypt been mentioned?

I think there's a group, I want to say maybe some kind of hip hop thing, where they have a festival and spray fruit-flavour soft drink over the audience?

do you really remember this, or do you remember some bullshit from UK tabloid newspapers?

People who were fans of ICP’s Fuse TV program Insane Clown Posse Theater, but not the rest of their musical or multimedia output

my friends did it

xp

Algerian Goalie's friends: a defined subculture.

I was listening to some Dead over the weekend; it strikes me that Dead Heads are pretty relevant to this topic

not so relevant as fans of Insane Clown Posse. I believe they are called "Juggalos".

...and that's to say nothing of the progenitors of the Juggalo fanbase, the self-styled Insane Clown Posse, also known as the ICP.

Grateful Dead

Oh yeah. Definitely.

Urban Cookie Collective

I'm just a juggalo
And everywhere i go

I'm just a juggalo, I love to spray faygo
People know the face I'm painting

ctrl-F "juggalo" : 0 results

wtf ILM

true story I was driving past a parking lot with a big truck that said ICP (International Concrete Products) and I rolled down the window and yelled "WOOOP WOOOP!!!"

Sorry I had Urban Cookie Collective mixed up with The Insane Clown Posse

Are we purposely not mentioning The Insane Clown Posses? Weird omission if you ask me, lads.

no juggalos, no credibility

to be serious Suicidal Tendencies.

In the early 80's when dangerous punk gangs such as the "L.A. Death Squad" and "Circle One Family" were running rampant, few of the gangs stood out as much as the Suicidals, who dressed like Cholos. Formed from punks who grew up and lived in the ghettos of Venice, Long Beach, Santa Monica, and other parts of LA.

Their name comes from the "Suicidal Tendencies" punk/thrash/crossover band from Venice. Mike Muir along with the rest of the band were known to dress like "Cholos" even though they were punks. The Suicidal gang color is blue, which leads most to think that at first glance they are Crips, but Suicidals have no association with Crips. For the Suicidals rarely contended with typical major race gangs such as Bloods, Crips, Surenos, Nortenos etc. since they are of a different caliber and Suicidals only fought with other punk gangs.

is It really true that syd barrett’s mum had a sister who ran the icp fanclub?
