"...That audience is there for me. I'm not a performance artist
or any of that, I'm not out to please anyone. Just me. Rock'n'roll has
to be destroyed and rebuilt in my name if it's ever gonna accomplish
anything. It's not about being in some clique, it's for people who

Kosher for Passover circus
Kosher for Passover circus
04/10/2004 04:58 AMRingling Bros and Barnum and Bailey threw a Kosher-for-Passover circus
at Madison Square Gardens for 19,0000 orthodox Jews, selling bun-less
hot-dogs and hiding the female performers.
The Greatest Show on Earth had its ethnic flourishes. The band started
the afternoon by playing "Dayenu," a rousing song at the Passover
Seder that children love. And David Larible, the master clown they
call the Prince of Laughter, wore a yarmulke to perform a miracle that
more than one youngster must have thought was right up there with the
parting of the Red Sea and the Ten Plagues: he turned another
performer into a goat for several heart-stopping seconds.

04/05/2005 11:45 PMFriday afternoon, as I was walking into the 7-11 across the street
from the Ogden theater on Colfax, I was witness to an odd sight; a
huge crowd of "juggalos" (aka: fans of the Insane Clown Posse who like
to paint their faces like "wicked clowns" whatever the fuck that
means) gathered around Independent Records chanting "When I say dawg,
you say 'woof, woof'!" after which they started chanting "Dawg!"
"Woof! Woof!" and so on and so forth. After purchasing a pack of
Camels and a jalapeno cheese taquito, I shook my head, and walked back
to my apartment depressed. I know this is Denver and we're about
twenty years behind the trends, but I still wondered "Why is the
Insane Clown Posse still considered cool here?"
