Korihor sent a Faygo avored shockwave through the horrorcore world when they smacked your eardrums
and eyeballs with their “Witches In The Trap House” music video. But these spooky boys aren’t any
smelly-assed one-trick pony. A connection that began through the internet has resulted in the creation
of a new sound, a new entity of this darkness. Thicc Criss from Indiana brings the savage production
(and is the only one actually singing). King Wicked from Virginia brings a tall glass full of lyrics. Cartoon
Bondurant, hailing from Michigan, packs a mean bag full of punch lines even though he’s the shortest
guy in the group. Whoop Whoop!
Many recording artists, including ICP, would agree: a true testament to a band's greatness is measured by
their longevity. Many caught the wave of 90's alternative rock, but few managed to grab ahold of that
bitch and surf it into the present like Sponge! Frontman Vinnie Dombroski is nothing less than a class
act whose rousing, genuine rock'n'roll spirit has endured the rise and fall of MTV and major labels, leaving
behind a musical footprint that is truly timeless! Songs such as "Plowed" and "Molly" are ubiquitous,
decade-de ning songs, and we expect nothing less from a band founded and formed in the one and
only Detroit Rock City! With the release of 2021's "Lavatorium", they're still going strong and that's why
we're proud to bring Sponge out to rock with us at The Gathering of The Juggalos!
One of the freshest things about putting on The Gathering of The Juggalos is the opportunity to reach
world renowned icons and legends and put them in front of a Juggalo audience. As part of that ongoing
series, this year it's our pleasure to bring to The Gathering stage: Arrested Development! For 30 years,
Speech and his eclectic crew of dancers and musicians have been Hip-Hop trailblazers! They have won
multiple awards as the rst names in conscious rap the world over and made their national mark as the
musical voice of the deep south long before Bounce had a foothold on the scene! Now the soulful,
realer-than-real sounds, sights and stories of the Vagabond Productions out t are set to descend upon
the Intergalactic Stage, promising a night of musical mesmerism that won't soon be forgotten! Everyday
People stand up, this one's for y'all!
We know from the down south Clown Towns that everything's bigger in Texas, but we suspect this artist
just might be that whole idea personi ed! Big swagger, big ice, big trucks, big beats with big talent to
match! We're talkin' Texas Big in human form! Holy shit Juggalos, it's Ri Ra ! In the land where there's
no end in sight to the lights glowing in the dark, we bring to the stage The Neon Icon! The man bold
enough to take the distinct avor of Texas rap and mix it up his way with EDM and trap-style production
to create colorful, bangin', absolute booty-shakin' dopeness! But don't let the avor fool you, Juggalos,
the epicness at hand grew from roots of slangin' burnt CDs and mixtapes, and Ra damn sure ain't scared
to pick up a mic and rip a freestyle! There's nothing about that we don't like, and you can come get with
it too at The Gathering of The Juggalos!
Step into the Juggalo TARDIS, we're calibrating the date and taking a space-time trip back to 1999! The
original Wicked Clowns From Outer Space Tour was a touchstone moment in Juggalo history and many
ninjas’ initiation into The Dark Carnival way of life. That's 23 years ago! Some of you ninjas were still
droppin' deuces in your SpongeBob Underoos! Well lucky you, Psychopathic is taking it back like a time
traveling repo man when the Insane Clown Posse brings to you The Wicked Clowns From Outer Space
Show! The spectacle you will witness is a faithful recreation of the original 1999 performance, from the
OG set list to elaborate creature e ects courtesy of legendary SFX wizard Roy Sota! So, whether you're
reliving your days as a young Juggalo or this is a performance you only wish you'd ever seen, we're
bridging the gap between past and present in a musical wormhole that can only be experienced at
The Gathering of The Juggalos! 8
