2. They pissed a lot of people off in Tulsa
When they played the Cains Ballroom a while back. There was a wall backstage that was signed by just about everybody who ever played the Cains and those assholes spray painted it black. :grr:

7. Holy fuck.
You know where I see Juggalos? In Ohio small towns that have been frozen in time for 13-15 years. You know, that place where everybody wears wifebeaters, goatees, shaven heads, tribal tats that look like they were done in the Sheffield Lake lock-up? That's where I see Juggalos. They smell like Marlboros, teen pregnancies and broken hope and have this walk and perma-scowl like they're esés or some shit.

I'm like "God is this ____________ now or America 15 years ago?"

These comedy acts have entire towns to themselves. EVERYwhere. That isn't "persecution", that's colonization!

8. There's going to be a big Juggalo gathering in Augus in Indiana
http://juggalogathering.com/

It's the 12th annual. Charlie Sheen is scheduled to be there, as are all kinds of has-beens and whack jobs.

10. Sorry about that. I looked at it quickly & had the wrong state.
Is "Cave-in-rock" actually the name of a town or is it actually a cave in a rock where the gathering is being held? (I wouldn't be surprised if it's the latter.)
