thoughts: - I've never really understood the ICP phenomenon. In some ways, I think this video cleared some things up. In other ways, I think I may understand it less. - I'm intrigued that very little was said about the music. - The sociologist in me was struck by the "whiteness" of the interviewees. - I wonder what the mean and median weight is for the juggalos and juggalettes. - I find the urge to judge, but these individuals have found some sense of belonging, a sense of community - and yet - what is it about, really? Just a place to feel loved? - strike that, I will judge the pregnant girl who is smoking - that's just bad juju - don't care who you are. - it takes all kinds to make the world go round. - it's like woodstock, but with angrier music. - the profanity in the 23 minute video puts the big lebowski to shame - I am intrigued and could watch a feature length doc about this.
