What up ninjas!?!?! This is it, y’all, the shizzit, the preliminary list of all the phat-ass flavor that we’re brewing up for this year’s Gathering of the Juggalos, motherfuckers! But before you skip down to the insanity below, check this out: Keep in mind that this list is far from finalized, and shit can easily be added, removed, or mutated; it should be about 95% accurate, though. As you will soon see, this year, basically everything is bigger and hyper than last year, and the response from our online presales is off the hook – so get ready for thousands of crazy Juggalos to tear shit up! We made it so that at anytime during the convention, ninjas will have like four or five events to choose from, not to mention the activities that are runnin’ the whole time, start to close. It’s never to early to start preparing your mind and body for the closest thing that the world has seen to the Dark Carnival… a screaming chaos-inspired dreamscape filled with thousands of demented Juggalos and Juggalettes, who traveled across the globe or street to witness the heart of madness… The Gathering of the Juggalos.

In about one month from today everyone who bought tickets online will receive a program that will detail the entire finalized flavor for the Gathering and provide times and locations for each event going on at the convention site. You will also receive a metal amulet to sport around your neck, and this will be your pass to get freely in and out of the convention site. Keep in mind that besides the events listed here there will be plenty of surprises and after parties for ninjas to get crunked the fuck up at, too. So enough talking about the flavor, now for the events!

Suicide Machines, Myzery, and Psychopathic Rydas – Friday Night

Get fuckin’ ready for all the live-ass concerts that will blow your wig into tiny, microscopic pieces. First will be the crazy high-powered shatter-your-nerves music of the death defying Suicide Machines. Then see the return of Psychopathic Recording artist, wanted by the law, Myzery, who was unable to attend last year due to a team of armed bounty hunters after his ass. Then finally, those crazy thugged-out, stay strapped, bustin’ caps O.G. killas for realas, The Psychopathic Rydas will slay the crowd, executioner style.

Project Born, Ice T, Blaze, and Twiztid – Saturday Night

First, is the first band to be signed to Psychopathic after ICP, those Flint town bust-a-cap-in-your-back-‘cause-they-ain’t-no-new-jacks thugs, Project Born. Then the legendary ICE T, the originator of gangster rap and founder of the Rhyme Syndicate will ignite the stage with his smooth killer lyrics. Then, back from the dead again (what, you thought he was out?) is the zombie gangsta himself, Blaze Ya Dead Homie. Then it’s up to Twiztid, the serial killa maniacs, to completely obliterate the stage and lay waste to the crowed with their napalm rap flows.

Dark Lotus, Vanilla Ice, and Insane Clown Posse – Sunday Night

Prepare to be killed, brought back to life, then blown to pieces, then sown back together, then liquefied, then frozen back together, only to be blasted into the fifth dimension and beyond. To start off, the grand finale is the first ever performance or musical outlet from the masters of death themselves, Dark Lotus, whose horrific lyrics and music will destroy your mind. Followed by the one who has had possibly the most success you could have in the music business with something like 50 million sold it’s the hard spitting raps of the rap master, Vanilla Ice. Finally it’s time for the Armageddon of all time as the Insane Clown Posse takes to the stage and disintegrates the crowd, and levels the city of Toledo as they bring the wicked Dark Carnival shit to your dome they way only they truly can.

Will you take the chance and find out what it is or wait to hear all the talk of it later. It could be wack, or it could be fresh, but you’ll never make it great at anything by playing it safe.

Contests

Live Web Broadcast and Computer Trivia Challenge – All the time

This area is hosted by none other than Jelly Nuts the Clown! Come and try your knowledge as you compete with other juggalos in a trivia game that is being run on six computers. Games will be run all day long with the winners of each game winning a prize, those who receive perfect scores will get a chance to compete in the Computer Trivia Showdown to take place late Sunday night. The winner of the showdown will receive a gold Big Money Hustlas plaque embossed with Trivia Champion – Gathering 2001.

Ring Girl Contest - Friday (Females only)

Girls with sexy, provocative attire will compete in an attempt to win this contest. Each competitor will walk down the ramp to the JCW ring and enter it with a match card, trying to walk and look as sexy as possible for the onlookers. The crowd will determine the winners by applause. The top three winners of this contest will all receive a backstage pass, and will be allowed to be the ring girls for all three JCW events not to mention being able to chill with all the stars, all day long. Juggalettes should bring their own skimpy outfits (dresses, swimsuits, sexy outfits, etc.) to this contest.

Challenge Games – All the time

We will have two games set up for juggalos to test their skills and try to win free prizes. They are…

Basketball Hoops – Players are given two chances to sink a basketball at about the three-point line. One basket scored wins a small prize, while two wins a phat prize.

Pool Tables – Players break four balls with a cue ball. They then attempt to sink whatever balls are left after the break. The only catch is that they must sink the high ball last, and every shot must be called. Balls sunk accidentally results in a loss. Players successful win a prize.

Big Baller Contest – Saturday (Males only 21 and up)

This contest is for the true players only. Participants will compete in a random game of chance to determine three winners who will each be awarded $150 dollars in one dollar bills, and be driven in a limo to a tittie bar to chill big balla style with Alex Abbiss, Jumpsteady, and the Rude Boy after the concert ends Saturday Night. All drinks are paid for, but you will be required to spend all your money won on the dancers so that all the strippers will be on your jock and you can be a player for a night. Afterwards, the winners will be dropped off anywhere in the Toledo area they want, crunked the fuck out.

Psycho Karaoke Contest – Once a day

You and a partner can compete in this contest using either an ICP or Twiztid song on the main stage. Instrumental beats will be provided to the song of your choice, just bring your well-polished rap skills with you and try to win the grand prize… two (one-day) backstage passes that will get you into the well-guarded backstage areas, all that you like for a full day. That includes up on stage during that night’s concert.

Costume Contest – Sunday

It is time to look as live as possible for this contest, because the ninja who puts the most effort into putting together a bomb-ass costume will walk away the winner. This contest will take place on the secondary stage where contestants will show off their crazy attire to the crowd. Judges will decide the first, second, and third place winners, with the grand prize being a gold Big Money Hustlas plaque, embossed with Best Costume – Gathering 2001.

 

Lingerie Contest – Saturday (Females only)

Come see the bangin’ Juggalettes as they show off their fine curves, wearing next to nothing and trying an win it all. Those wishing to contend should bring their own lingerie and get ready to walk and look as provocatively and sexily as possible, as the crowd will determine the winner by applause. The grand prize is a 500-dollar shopping spree at any Psychopathic Merchandise booth in the building.

Miss Juggalette Pageant – Sunday (Females only)

Aw, Hell yeah!!! This is it. If you missed last year’s, make sure you attend this one ‘cause it’s well worth it. Any semi-hot freak can compete to be crowned the ever so honorable title of Juggalette Queen. You don’t necessarily have to have an amazing body to compete, ‘cause as was seen last year, having the right attitude, charisma, or even a crack habit may be all you need. There will be three rounds to the pageant. Personality round – the Juggalettes will answer a question. Talent round – they will show off a skill to the crowd (music can be provided if needed). And finally, the Swimsuit round, where the Juggalettes will almost totally expose their full curvaceous bodies in an attempt to arouse the onlookers. Judges will take crowd reaction into heavy consideration and tally up the points from all three rounds to determine who wins. There will be first, second and third place winners with the Grand Prize being a Gold Riddlebox plaque with Juggalette Queen – Gathering 2001 embossed on it, as well as a backstage pass!

Psychopathic Role-playing – 4 times a day

Enter the fantasy world of imagination with this role-playing game (not unlike Dungeons and Dragons), set to an ICP theme, much like the comic book series. 20 players will play at a time in a short, but action-packed adventure where everyone will be able to role-play a Psychopathic employee or star. Come and battle all of the enemies of Juggalos everywhere as you take part in this epic imaginary adventure hosted by none other than Alex Abbiss. One player from each session will be chosen by Alex as the best player, and will be then allowed to come back Sunday night to compete in another role-playing session to see who is the most ingenious and talented role-player. The winner of this will receive a Platinum Amazing Jeckel Brothers Plaque with Role-playing Champion – Gathering 2001 embossed on it. But this gaming is not all about winning, ‘cause the fun lies in playing the game itself. Please, only experienced role-players should attend.

 

Best Tattoo Contest – Sunday

Do you have the freshest Psychopathic Tattoos ever, inked onto your skin? Well this is your chance to prove it by showing that shit off in an attempt to win this contest. Judges will determine the first, second, and third place prizes, with the grand prize being a free tattoo of the winner’s choice (no matter how big) and a backstage pass, straight up!

The Neden Game – Once a day (Males only, 18 and up)

Back by very popular demand, this shit is crazy phat! Five eager Juggalos will be picked from the crowd to play a game very similar to the dating game. Contestants will answer rather unusual questions in a desperate attempt to win a date with a certified, super-stacked, and bangin tittie dancer! Once the questioning is done, the sexy stripper will choose her date from amongst the hidden competitors. Winners will then be escorted by their date to a limo to go out on their date right away! Dinner and a hotel room are bought and paid for by Psychopathic, the rest is up to you….

Juggalo Scavenger Hunt – Friday Night

After the concerts Friday night, all Juggalos will be given a flyer on the way out that has a long list of crazy and hard items to find or take pictures of. Listed next to each entry will be a point value. Those wishing to compete will then head out to spend a wild and dangerous night in an attempt to gather as much of these items as possible. Those who embark on this quest are for sure to have one of the most memorable nights of their lives. Along with this comes no sleep, loss of sanity and/or loved ones, and possibly incarceration. Small sacrifices when considering the grand prize… a Gold Psychopathic Charm, Leather Psychopathic Jacket, and a 250-dollar shopping spree at any of the Psychopathic merch booths. Note: Every item will be totally new, compared to last year’s hunt.

Art Display – All the Time

Did you make a paper machete statue of Violent J or a watercolor of Monoxide? Bring any Psychopathic-related artwork, no mater what the medium, on Friday. As soon as doors open you will take it to the art area where a guard will keep watch over it for the next three days. You will fill out an information card to place on your art so you can get your props from Juggalos who come in to check out the exhibit. Sunday at 6pm the best works of art will receive prizes and first, second, and third place ribbons. The first place winner will receive a Forgotten Freshness Gold Plaque with Art Master – Gathering 2001 embossed on it.

Win a Date with ICP – Saturday (Females only)

Any Juggalette who can walk, crawl, or roll into the seminar room where this contest takes place may compete in an attempt to win a date with either J or Shaggy! That’s right! Ever fantasize about what it would be like looking across a candlelit table into Shaggy’s eyes as he spoon-feeds you cabbage? Well forget about that shit! Your date will probably be more like the dates you see in cheap porn flicks… but ahh the sweet memories. Participates will compete in a random game of chance with the sole winner getting a date at a predetermined time in the future as worked out by the Juggalette and the artist of her choice.

Win a Date with Twiztid – Sunday (Females only)

Ever want a date with a homicidal serial killing maniac? Well now is your lucky day, ‘cause any Juggalette with a halfway decent jugular vein can compete to win a date with either Monoxide or Jamie Madrox! Participants will compete in a game of chance to see who the lucky winner will be. The date will be set at a later time as determined by the winner and the artist of her choice.

Don for a Day – Saturday (Males only)

I know what Juggalettes are saying... that’s fucked up that only males can participate in this contest, and yes it is true that females could become a Don at Psychopathic. But the reason we made it that way is ‘cause look at all the contests that are females only, and you will see why we are trying to even shit out!

Participants of this contest will play in a random game of chance to determine a winner. The winner will be able to spend a full day at Psychopathic with the full power of a Don! Now we are not talking about the winner being able to pull money out of our bank accounts and shit, but they will be able to help shape the history of Psychopathic by participating in all the meetings for the day. They will see the inner workings, go to lunch with the whole Psychopathic crew, and be able to talk with and discuss issues with the stars themselves via phone or in person. The winner will also be able to bring along a friend of his choice (and yes, this friend can be female). The possibilities for the winner of this contest are only limited by their creativity and imagination.

 

Booths

Merchandise Booths – All the time

14 booths will be set up, selling all the rarest, old school, and newest Psychopathic merchandises ever. Some spotlights on this year’s merch include Moon Glorious and Florida Joe shirts, Bass-ment Cutz on CD, Dog Beats on CD, XXX Tunnel of Love on CD, the Juggalo Show Boxed Set, featuring all the radio shows recorded ever in an 8 CD set, as well as so many other items, too many to mention here.

Morton’s List Booth – All the time

Available three weeks before its nation-wide debut only at the Gathering of the Juggalos is the game of some high speculation… it is Morton’s List. You’ve heard about it, talked about it, possibly had visions about it, and now it is here, releasing its heavy influence upon the world. This game has one purpose in life, which it does with uncanny effectiveness, and that is to end all boredom! Don’t believe it?… well come by and check it out – it should prove to be well worth your time.

.Com Booths – All the time

Well here it is, the official web site ninjas who will have a booth this year at the Gathering… and please no crying like little, wet-diapered babies if you weren’t selected. It in no way reflects your lack of flavor. Those selected (by personal opinion) are the ninjas that have freaked it above and beyond the call of duty this year. They are mikeclark.com, thesixth.com, realjuggalos.com, darklotus.net and finally worldwidejuggalos.com. I know ninjas are mad right now readin’ this shit, but we would have to have a thousand .com booths in order to make everyone happy, so be cool about it.

Information Booth – All the time

Have you lost your program and are having a hard time finding your way around? Or better yet, have you lost your mind and need to know who you are? Do you have a serious complaint or compliment? Do you need to know where the bathroom is or what the time is in London? Well all your questions will be answered immediately by the friendly and armed people at the information booth. So don’t worry, and what ever you do, don’t panic!

Tattoos – All the time.

Four tattoo artists from the nationally acclaimed tattoo shop known as Artistic Fusion out of Flint Michigan will be giving out free tattoos. These guys are true Juggalos, so make sure you give ‘em mad props for all the fresh-ass tats they’re about to drop on you ninjas. Call these cool-ass ninjas direct if you got any questions about the tattooing flavor REMOVED.

Face Painting – All the time.

Two professional face painters will be hooking up anyone who wants face paint, applied anywhere they choose.

Skate Shop – All the time.

Here is a skater’s dream come true! Get all the detailing and accessories at this booth to outfit your board with whatever flavor you want. It is here to accommodate the serious skaters that will be enjoying the Skate Park this year. So stop by and get the hook ups you need.

Tours

Stage Displays – All the time

Every single stage that has not been utterly obliterated by Juggalos will be set up for you to enjoy. Come and get your pictures taken next to the giant Bizzar/ Bizaar clown or frolic on the set to the Wicked Clowns from Outer Space, or see what’s on the other side of the doors to the House of Horrors set, or look at the demons up close to the Jeckel Broth… oops! Never mind, that stage was destroyed at last year’s Gathering. Anyway enjoy this museum of ICP’s and Twiztid’s performance history.

Car Display – All the Time

Phat ass cars that are totally decked out with a Psychopathic theme will be on display for everyone to peep. Check out these bomb-ass rides that slap motherfuckers in the face with Juggalo pride as the ride by. If you have a car that you wish to enter for a chance to showcase it at the Gathering, email a picture to REMOVED.

Museum Area – All the time

Here you will find five rooms, each one with a Jokers Card theme, featuring pictures, music, articles, and displays of rare merchandise from that era. Stop by and talk with the strange hosts that occupy each room, and they will be glad to answer any questions. This is true flavor for the true Juggalos, and we are making this section way more extensive than last year.

Juggalo Wall of Fame – All the time

We will be setting up a huge wall next to the one from last year so all the Juggalos at this year’s Gathering can sign their names, leave their tags, do artwork, or whatever. This way they will be immortalized as a participant of the Gathering of the Juggalos 2001, and both walls will appear at next year’s Gathering for all to see.

Other Flavor

Juggalo Open Mike – Various times on all three days

Come and test your verbal skills on the main stage, using a professional sound system. You can bring your own music (on cassette is okay, but preferably on CD or DAT), or an instrumental beat can be provided for you. This is your chance to get the crowd into your shit, and flow in front of a live audience. A Psychopathic representative will be watching, accepting any demos, and taking notes on each performance, looking for possible future Psychopathic stars.

Autographs – All the time

You will have a chance to meet every star at the Gathering this year, and get all their autographs. We will have two autograph areas set up where stars will be in attendance all day long. They include ICP, Twiztid, Vampiro, Blaze, Myzery, Project Born, Vanilla Ice, Ice T, Alex Abbiss, Mike E Clark, Esham and Natas, the stars of Big Money Hustlas - Dolemite, Missy and Johnny Brennen as well as others. Don’t miss out on this great opportunity.

The Skate Park – All the Time

This is the nuclear bomb for any skater enthusiasts. We will have a crazy huge half pipe set up along with a skate park surrounding it, featuring ramps, rails, and slopes. Bring your own skateboard with you or buy one at the Gathering, ‘cause there will be a booth featuring skate apparel and accessories. This is the big time, and twice daily we will be featuring shows put on by professional skaters and BMX riders. So get live all that you like on this giant construction built for those who posses the skate-or-die attitude in their hearts. Please remember to bring your own safety gear or you will not be allowed to skate.

The Fighting Zone – All the Time

Perhaps one of the best ways to release any aggression you might have is at the fighting zone. Here we will feature a Giant Rock Wall so that you can race other Juggalos to see who can reach the top first. Or race each other on Giant Tri Bikes as you try to bash and run your opponents off the course in an attempt to reach the finish line first. If that doesn’t do anything for you, then you can try one of our three giant inflatable games…. Bouncy Boxing, where fighters beat each other silly with giant boxing gloves or wrestle in a giant moonwalk. Jousting, where combatants pummel each other with padded sticks, trying to knock each other off a pedestal. Finally, there’s Sumo Wrestling, where fighters don giant padded suits, and try and knock each other down. Whatever you decide, you’re sure to enjoy it, ‘cause you’re beating other people silly.

Auction – Friday

Juggalos will be able to bid on the rarest merchandise that we could find at Psychopathic Records. Many of the items are one-of-a-kind or prototype items available nowhere else. We always start the bid at extremely low prices, so even a poor-ass has a chance to walk away with some flavor. Those who successfully win a bid will then compete in a dice game to see who among them will win 25% of all the money made at the auction!!!

Movie Area – All the Time

There will be a secluded room away from all the action and excitement of the main convention hall where Juggalos can kick back and enjoy any footage they might have missed. We will post the running times of all videos in the program, but they include Big Money Hustlas (with commentary by J), Twiztid’s Mocumentary: Born Twiztid, JCW Volume 2, and a video segment in which we will run all of ICP’s and Twiztid’s videos back-to-back.

Free Play Video Games – All the Time

A full arcade featuring some of the latest arcade games out there will be available for continuous free play. How about challenging a friend to one of the fighting games or air hockey? The choice is yours, but there are so many games and so little time.

Faygo Armageddon – Sunday Night

Armageddon! The final assault!!! What better way to close out the Gathering of the Juggalos than to have a giant-ass Faygo bombardment? The area? Anywhere downstage from ICP’s concert. The weapons? 4000 two liters of Faygo, 4 giant water cannons, and about 7,000 soaking wet Juggalos. This will be the biggest, craziest, and most wicked Faygo event ever seen! It will not be for the weak and timid. This is none other than the Grand Finale of not only of the Insane Clown Posse’s show, but of the Gathering itself.
