I knew they were hype as hell about it on the inside though…Īfter getting our 4 year old situated with a babysitter, it was time to head out to the Southside Ballroom! If you’re going to a Juggalo show of any sort, especially on a weekend, you know that there will be a parking lot party in effect for a majority of the day. His girlfriend of several years had never seen ICP either, so they made the trek out, citing their reluctance until the moment they walked into the venue. Another friend of mine named C also hadn’t been to a show for a minute. Whether you are still as hardcore of a fan as you were at day one, or you eventually drifted away from the scene as a whole, you can’t deny the fact that Violent J and Shaggy put on one of the best shows that you will ever see! My homie G-Dub is a Gathering veteran, but he hadn’t been to one in years, and decided to venture out to the show at the last minute. Some other OGs came out to witness the spectacle too, even though they aren’t into the Juggalo scene anymore. After a gracious gift of a VIP experience from our Houston homies, he was gung ho about the night he was about to have. V-Tre decided that he was gonna go all out for this one.

I had some homies that came in from Houston (what’s up Donnie and Sheri?), and a good personal friend of mine who hadn’t been to an ICP show since the last time they were in Dallas. It was a Sunday, so if you planned to work the following Monday, you’d probably be going with a hint of a root beer smell, no matter how many times you showered the day before. We are pretty sure that LiveNation just didn’t want to do the cleanup involved after hundreds of bottles of Faygo soaked every crevice of the venue.įast forward to show day. Again, this was the first clown show to even be scheduled in Dallas for over 5 years, so everyone was on pins and needles up until the day of the show.Īfter conversations with our homies at Psychopathic, we found out that the show WOULD go on, and Juggalos from the DFW breathed a huge sigh of relief. We were told that they said they hoped to cancel it altogether. LiveNation owns the Southside Ballroom, and days before the show, we were told by random ninjas that they weren’t selling tickets at the box office due to poor presales. Luckily, nobody was injured, and I’m thankful that we weren’t there to experience it.Īnyways, back to the review. While we were away, a small tornado ripped through my neighborhood causing 10s of thousands of dollars of damage to my house alone. *Side note: on the last tour, Shockfest, we traveled to Oklahoma City just over a year ago. Taking an extra day for travel is always a pain, but the anticipation of a Wicked Clown show makes the trip bearable. Most of us have traveled to Oklahoma City, San Antonio, or Houston to catch whatever the current ICP tour was at the time. Juggalos in the Dallas area have been feeling neglected for the past several tours. But, much to my surprise many, many Juggalos love ‘…Found’ more, so I want to stay on that tip.Here we are, just a few days after the Insane Clown Posse barreled through Dallas, TX for the first time in over 5 years! The Marvelous Missing Link Tour all but destroyed the Southside Ballroom in a few short hours, and it was a night that I’ll never forget! Y’know, I thought the Juggalos would love ‘…Lost’ more, the negative dark one with songs about going to hell and shit. “I want to make an uplifting, fresh, positive album. The set will also have a lot in common with ICP’s The Marvelous Missing Link: Found. “My album is going to be all positive,” Violent J says. “I don’t like to hear what they already have I like to tell ’em what I want and see what they come up with.”

“I’m getting tracks from several different producers,” he says. Violent J, meanwhile, is gathering material for his fourth solo release, Karma Forest, which he hopes to have out this fall. I can tell he’s putting all his heart into it.” From what I have heard it sounds very high-paced, extreme intensity. It’s taking a long time, but he’s wrapping it up now. So he sat with DJ Clay and produced every beat from track and it’s really cool.

I don’t even want to hear it I want to put it on and not know what’s next and get to know it like I do my other favorite rappers. “I wanted him to do it all him and write it all and produce it all. “I didn’t want any involvement,” says Violent J., who nevertheless does appear on one track at Shaggy’s request.
