AKA GWARbq II: Julian Goes Up In Smoke
Actually...I like this idea even more
Nah, I don't think I'm interested in that. I have a compelling GwarBQ 2 idea, I think.
I feel like we're getting confused about what the essence of the GWARbq events really are. Looking back at year 1, it seems the following tenets were developed:
1) The board is commissioning a concert review from an unlikely attendee.
2) While the board cannot compel Julian to attend a specific show, Julian's interest or comfort is not taken into consideration.
3) Shenanigans are encouraged.
4) The payoff is the ironic schadenfreude of seeing Julian attending a concert with a crowd that he has previously spewed his hatred upon.
5) Said heroic journey leads to the transformation and/or demise of said hero.
I think Year 1 was a spectacular success in all regards, and I'm skeptical of Julian taking a leadership role in the planning of Year 2. The whole point is that we set him off on a seemingly dubious quest, not of his own choosing.

Investments like this continue to have my support.

I see what you're saying but there is some balance between the "uh, I don't actually HAVE to do any of this" and also it needs to be something I'm uncomfortable doing. Just attending a bad concert isn't funny in and of its own. I'm not agreeing to a repeat performance if its just the same thing: I need to have some motivation that what is planned can actually top year one from a comedy standpoint. I think I have some ideas on how to do that.

I think you should tailgate with this baby

So do you think we could raise the funds for this?
It's only $150k (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/christmasbook/fantasy.jsp?cid=CBF12_O5411&cidShots=m,a,b,c,z)...free shipping and comes with *One-year supply of Bulleit Bourbon and Bulleit Rye not to exceed four cases of each

being the new guy I have no idea what this is all about but I think I get the gist. Might I suggest...
1. Start a go fund me to raise $300 bucks to attend the Smashing Pumpkins concert.
2. In the Q & A Session proceed to ask Billy Corgan inappropriate questions regarding his romantic relationship with Courtney Love.

^bob, like the way you think, but going in we already know he likes the pumpkins...so the comedy element would be limited
GWARbq is also in Julian's geographic area
But if we could get the funds to send him to Ohio on July...this (http://www.juggalogathering.com)would be pure comedy

I cant wait for the infomercial to come out for it...
One of these years I will go to the Gathering. Mainly because of the infomercials and this documentary:
https://vimeo.com/29589320
It seems like an absolutely fascinating experience.
-
Gathering of the Juggalos is what immediately leapt to my mind.
-
I am on the record that I will not do Gathering of the Juggalos, and that was before I was aware it had moved to fucking Ohio.
-
While I don't think Julian is nearly sexist enough to maximize a Lillith Faire type of gathering, I would assume that many of the patrons would be sufficiently ample to raise his ire. But I'm anti-fat-shame so i withdraw the suggestion.
-
Julian and friends sounds like a good enough premise to roll with for the next GwarBQ.

I really don't want to throw names out there before it's confirm that they'll do it but I am extremely confident I can get two retired Hall of Fame Boardies to attend this with me all of us in Derby wear with the drunkenness taken to a whole Nother level.
-
And like I previously stated, I am probably down.
-

OK, because I'm an old fart I had to google exactly what this was and I think I would fear for my life.
But, at the same time I'm not sure that I could take something seriously when the following is noted:
Common characteristics of identifying a member of the Juggalo subculture are as follows:
Drinking and spraying the inexpensive soft drink Faygo
and
Several celebrities and other well known figures have identified themselves as Juggalos. These include... Vanilla Ice

You could send one of us who don't like Smashing Pumpkins

We may have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to send him to a Trump rally. Or Cruz. Really any of them.

A rally? That's not even interesting. You guys get me a ticket to actual the RNC, we have full-blown event viewing right there.

I second that

The "NO BURBERRY FOR OIL" sign on the convention floor during the nomination vote would be my crowning achievement on here.
-
Ironically, the RNC and the Juggalos are both in Ohio...and the dates overlap! This is too good :)

i mean, I'm not going to deny fate. If people get a juggalo ticket and RNC invite I will attend both. RNC in juggalo paint, juggalo thing in republican garb.
-
I mean, that's an undeniable 2 for 1. I will cover transportation and medical costs if you guys can secure admission. Synergy like this doesn't come along every day.

Carly Rae Jepsen is coming to Norfolk next month. Boy, that sounds like a crappy autotuned concert full of annoying teenyboppers. I guess I would be a good sport and go to that if you all funded it. You know, for the board's collective amusement at my fate.

Carly Rae released the best pop album, by a mile, made by any non-Asian person last year.

Yeah, I would not fund this. I would however play along with Dead and Co.

Damn it, you all know me too well.

Welp.

6:30pm show. Everybody can get home before curfew.

Why oh why do they not sell VIP packages :(

I see two options here - you either go as a Trump supporter or as a Jehovahs witness.

I feel Trump supporter would actually ingratiate me with those loons. If I had to pick the most popular candidate among the 3 Juggalos who actually would wander down to the polls at some point, Trump would probably be the leader.

Too many of my supporters hate Jews...I couldn't take that...

What? I imagine it would be Bernie. Juggalos are anti-hate, anti-racism etc. Trump would not be who they support. I do not know why you would think they would (other than the fact that Trump is also a clown). The rhetoric of the Trump campaign is not what juggalos are about. Have you not studied their particular sub-culture? Watch American Juggalo (https://vimeo.com/29589320).

Breast feeding mom at Bernie Sanders rally, is a Juggalo (tattoo right above her feeding child)

I stand, corrected. You are, much more, versed in the Juggalo, subculture, than me.
(I thought, they'd like, the yelling, and arrogance.)
-
the explanation of that tattoo gives the photo a new dimension
-
You guys do not know about the Hatchet Man? (that is the symbol for ICP's record label, Psychopathic Records).
Juggalos will get it tattooed on a variety of places (a friend of mine from junior high through high school became a juggalo and got it tattooed on his neck, and needless to say, he has not done much with his life). Having these markings helps them identify each other in the wild (as does their call, which is "Whoop Whoop" of course)...

Just sayin'...
Following their three warm-up shows, including their intense debut performance at Los Angeles' Whisky A Go Go, Prophets of Rage will next take the stage at a still-to-be-determined venue in Cleveland on July 19th, the same time the Republican National Convention swarms the Ohio city.

While I still think the GOP convention is the better event, if people want me to do GwarBQ again I will if the board raises $300 for either the National Hopeline Network or the C.S. Mott Children's Hospital (donators can vote on which charity). I will cover the ticket cost in this instance.

On stage VIP.

I keep seeing these pics from gwarbq 2 and have yet to spot julie-ju in some Italian suit screaming moz lyrics in a sweltering mosh pit
Others have to pick up the slack in my absence
-
I didn't go yesterday. I'll be honest, part of me missed it. I saw a bunch of photos on social media and I felt I was missing out. It's a weird scene . . . and somehow I feel part of it now. I'm tenuously planning on going in 2017 and seeing my freaks again.

I see the GWAR!s every year or two. I consider it a cleansing. You can take the man out of the GWAR!, but you can't take the GWAR! out of the man.

Some of my fondest 930 memories

did security for a GWAR show this past new years eve. one of the most fun ways to bring in a new year.
