The Rest Of The Music At The Gathering Of The Juggalos
There were a massive amount of bands at the Gathering of the Juggalos and I think I photographed every single band or rapper to play the main stage. When I was doing my edit any band that had less than 15 photos went into a “Other Bands” folder and that’s what you are getting in this last gallery of photos. Now that I have posted everything else, here is the rest in one final music post. Starting tomorrow you are going to get rocked by the rest of the Gathering madness now that all the live music photos are out of the way… Get excited.
Personal highlights from the left over stuff include Kool Keith and Mack 10. I love Kool Keith but he’s pretty boring to photograph live and I have covered him before so I didn’t shoot much of his set. I used to listen to a lot of West Side Connection so I fuck with Mack 10 a little bit. I almost had a full gallery of the Kottonmouth Kings because they are pretty much jugglaos favorite non-Psychopathic Records act. Tech N9ne gives them a run for their money but I made sure to get a number of shots because they are so popular in this world.
On Tursday night DMX and The Game got scared of juggalos and canceled so they were replaced by Soul Fly for some reason. Imagine buying tickets for The Game and DMX and showing up and it’s Soulfly and Fear Factory. That would be mind blowing. Speaking of Fear Factory they might be the worst band I have heard in three years of the Gathering of the Juggalos. Jesus christ. The should always open for Soulfly because they made Soulfly sound so fucking good in comparison.
This dude Big B played before the Kottomouth Kings unannounced. I am pretty sure he is on their label and Mack 10 was running late. I jokingly said to one of the bouncers in the photo pit “I don’t think this is Mack 10.” and the bouncer replied “That’s actually Mack 7.” That shit was funny.
The only bands left in this folder are Static X and POD. Everyone was really psyched about both of them and I don’t really get it but I am just not into shit like that. That being said they both put on really good live shows. The front man for POD is actually pretty fucking awesome at being a front man and Static X are super weird looking so that makes them fun to shoot. So yeah. Good times.
Now let’s get this shit over with and get on to all the photos of juggalos and naked juggalettes that you came here to see.
The Gathering of the Juggalos is a yearly music festival in Cave In Rock, IL created by the Insane Clown Posse that I have now photographed three times. Every year it produces some of the best photos I have ever taken. To see my complete GOTJ archives please click here.
