More Music @ The 2015 Gathering Of The Juggalos

The truth is I didn’t shoot a lot of music at the Gathering of the Juggalos. I tried to hit the headliners and stuff but I decided not to spend too much time doing it and I also decided I wasn’t going to shoot the Psychopathic Records bands aside from Twistid and ICP. This was my 6th Gathering and I think I have far too many photos of bands that no one outside of juggalos has ever heard of. So to my juggalo fans, sorry.

I also only took a handful of photos of Twistid and didn’t shoot ICP at all because I got stuck backstage. Seriously the security wouldn’t let me get back out to the crowd so I could go to the front of the stage. It was totally insane. Eventually I went around the back way but by the time I got near the stage the photographers were being kicked out of the pit. I did take some wide shots though.

As far as non Psychopathic bands I shot Hopsin and Tech N9ne on the first night and also got to shoot DJ Paul of Three Six Mafia fame again. His set was really late at night so I was planning on skipping it but I got in a long conversation with a hot lady and a pro wrestler and by the time I was about to leave he was going on. I have shot him before and bought hot sauce from him before but I am never upset about hearing Three Six songs.

Flosstradamus DJ’d which was cool since I have photographed those guys a half dozen times in my nightlife career. I actually didn’t get to the stage in time to shoot them from the pit but I shot them from the side of the stage and got a couple snaps at the end. J2k got hit in the face with a rock so I got a nice shot of him with a bloody towel. It ended up on his Instagram actually.

Let’s see… what else? I took a few photos of Puddle of Mudd which I was ready to make fun of but then they played War Pigs by Sabbath and I changed my mind about them. Hard not to make fun of Mushroomhead who up close look to be wearing cheap halloween masks and the best part of their set was their water drums which they might have stolen from the Blue Man Group. I actually don’t even remember what their music sounds like because it was so silly.

Oh and Twista was awesome but he kept shouting out Ohio to the crowd as if everyone who came to the show was from Thornville, OH. Still, that dude is real impressive.

Okay, it’s 11pm and I got shit to do so let’s wrap this up. See you tomorrow with three more updates.
