Interview With A Juggalette

While I was going through the Derek Erdman site (from my previous post) I came across an interview that he did as a follow-up piece to his video and photo documentary. I'm quoting some choice bits below, but if you want to see it in its entirety go here.

What is your name and age?

Nicole aka Per0xide Chiild and im legal (:

It seems to be that Juggalos couldn't care less about the people that criticize them. Would you agree with this?

Definitly and i can tell you why. Because everyone that aint down iznt SHIT to us. if you disrecpect us or think low of us because were different than you than thatz your problem. The world is just ridiculous and alwayz gota have a problem with someone else for sum reason. well check nutz bitch because what we have is never gona die neva gona fade and there PISSED because they know that. We feed off the hate so bring it cause we'd love to split ya wiggg

I've become aware that there's a video of you on YouTube smoking a bowl in a car listening to Cypress Hill. Are you at all worried that your parents or employers will see this video?

hahaha i forgot about that! Hell no though i smoke alot of weed and am very proud to be a stoner!

Do you drink Faygo all of the time, or just at the Gathering?

I drink faygo every chance i get to tazte that sugaryyy go0odnezz! and i love gettin faygo showerz at any time.

Gathering Of The Juggalos 2009 Photos & Video Footage

What began my juggalo intrigue was this 15-minute long infomercial for the 10th Annual Gathering Of The Juggalos (below).



Oh man - I just found a SNL skit spoofing the above video...


A little bit later I came across this awesome collection of photos and video footage, linked courtesy of Derek Erdman.








There are a ton more gorgeous Gathering photos on Derek's site. I highly recommend checking them all out.

So after seeing all Derek's sweet footage I was hooked and wanted more. After a mostly disappointing hunt through YouTube I found a real gem: a full-length documentary of the 2009 Gathering called A Family Underground. I highly recommend that you acquire this video. If you search a bit you can illegally download it for free, or purchase the DVD here. (Preview below.)

More Jugg Photos!

I just realized that I neglected to check out all of the web site from yesterday's post (The Airbrush Shoppe's Juggalo Gallery), and there are some more choice photos you need to see...

By the way, what is that guy doing with his hands? Miming a grenade-pin pull? Making the penis-in-vagina sign? I don't know.



I read about "juggalo furries" online, but sadly I had been unable to find any actual photo or video footage of this supposedly huge sub-culture. Here we see one in the flesh! A full feature on juggalo furries will be coming soon...



Also, on the same site are some written first-hand accounts of Gathering Of The Juggalos experiences from 2003-05. There's some pretty funny stuff. For example...

To anyone who has been to a Gathering at the Crystal Forest, you know to move when you hear him coming. Sometimes he has a light and sometimes he doesn't...! He'll catch you in the worst possible spots and in the most compromising of positions! We're talking about none other than Shaggy 2 Dope, and we're here to admit that we got Shagged while we were out in the woods. We know we are not alone. We heard stories. On one occassion, we had to take a tree, but he still nailed us hard with about 50 gallons of rooster-tailed mud. We learned fast to find a distant corner when we heard the buzzzzz of his golf cart approaching through the night. On Sunday night, we met a Juggalo who had REALLY been Shagged! He decided, after much self-debate, that he would brave the nasty port-a-potties to take a dump. He said he was sitting, not much enjoying the atmosphere, when he heard the growing buzzz of a golf cart. The golf cart hit the port-a-potty he was sitting in, then raced away into the night, leaving familiar evil laughter ringing through the air.

Last year, he was just a legend. This year, we managed to locate the famous Tent Boy! He looked like he was having a most excellent time, and we again heard stories about how he used his tent to sneak up and freak people out. Props to you, Tent Boy! We appreciate your sense of style!

I think I really like this Tent Boy character. I need some video footage.

Sweet Juggalo Photos from '03 and '04

I found these really sweet old photos from the Juggalo Gathering 2003 & '04. These are some of my faves। There are a bunch more photos and stuff on this web site. The make-up was all done by the guys who run that site.
