Parking lot party 2014

Yeah, I got some shit up just over a week after taking it. How's that taste, bitches?

126 items for your viewing pleasure. It was definitely a pleasure taking them and hanging out with the most hated fans in the world, because these muthafackos know how to throw one hell of a party in a parking lot.

A Juggalo grabbed me from behind and got a woman all wet

in , ,

There I was, a mild mannered guy, attending the 15th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos, still standing in the pit as Insane Clown Posse ended their set on Saturday night, when all of a sudden I felt a hand on my shoulder and realized that one of those scary, gang-banging Juggalos wanted me to turn around.

Well, I guess it wasn't entirely out of the blue, since a few hours earlier, that same "terrifying" Juggalo had warned me that this was going to happen. He had grabbed me as I was walking through the festival grounds and told me that he was going to be looking for me at the end of ICP's show. I figured there wasn't much chance that he would actually find me in all of the chaos, but I had forgotten that I was wearing a bright yellow Tyvek suit, and carrying two cameras, which made me pretty noticeable. 

So, I spun around in response to the hand on my shoulder, and saw that there were 3 or 4 Juggalos surrounding me. Over the next minute, things happened pretty fast. It started with him grabbing a Juggalette and pulling her in front of me, shouting something to her that I couldn't hear over the roar of the crowd. 

Then he pulled something from his pocket and got down on one knee....

So, this year's Gathering had both a wedding and at least one proposal.

And I believe that she said, "Yes."

Day 2 of GOTJ 2013, with more wet t-shirts, more WOLFPAC girls, and more random titties. Do you miss all of this as much as I do? Wouldn't it be great if we could get together and do it again sometime?

That sounds like a good plan, but until then sit back and enjoy Thursday at the 14th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos.

 

Take me to the Not Safe for Work Gallery

The Gathering of the Juggalos? Yeah, I remember that.

Day 2

Day 2

Do you remember last year's GOTJ? Cave-In-Rock, Illinois? Hogrock Campground? Does any of that sound familiar?

Even though we're not be going back to the same location this year, we'll always have fond memories of the Gathering on the Ohio River. But maybe it wasn't the best place after all. Did you know that Cave-In-Rock got it's start over 200 years ago as a hideout for "fugitive criminals on the run from civilized society?" I mean, hell, Juggalos don't want to accidentally get a bad reputation from hanging out in a place with that kind of history.

Day 2

But... it was fun. Maybe you can't remember everything that happened. Or, God forbid, maybe you didn't get to go last year. Well, brother, I got you covered. Better late than never, hunh? 

I've finally gotten a chance to work on shots from Thursday, August 8, 2013, better known to history as Day 2 of the Mutha Fucking 14th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos.

Take a look and see what was going on that day. There were some clouds, a bit of rain, and a whole lot of wet t-shirts.

Take me to the Gallery

I heard about this art festival, and didn't even look into the details, I just decided to show up with my camera. It turns out that the festival was literally being held in front of a place where I used to live 15 years ago, back when the neighborhood was a total slum. Back then, the two times that I left my car on the street for an hour or two, the windows got smashed.

So now the area is apparently the hippest spot in town. And by hip, I mean hipsters... coming from every direction like a fucking hipster plague. I have never seen so many ironic mustaches. Every 5 feet is a Turkish coffee shop, artsy tattoo parlor, hookah bar, art gallery, and in many cases, combinations of all of those things.

Nonetheless, it was fun walking around for a few hours. And there were at least some partially naked women from time to time.
