thatpatguy Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 The music journalist/columnist/critic Bob Lefsetz just wrote about this video. This is what he said:This ain’t Coachella. It’s not even Bonnaroo.We’re used to corporate sponsors, patrons staying in hotel rooms. Everybody in America is a winner, on their way up.But here you have an endless supply of what society calls losers. And they all seem to know it.This film is as powerful as the great documentaries of Frederick Wiseman and D.A. Pennebaker. It captures a vibe, a feeling, which you don’t find too often in today’s mainstream media.I can’t imagine many of these people are Democrats. They want every dollar they earn, because it’s not many. And where’s the better life, the jobs Obama promised?It’s an endless carnival of the disenfranchised. An underbelly pushed under the rug, joining together to have a good time.What happens when your parents aren’t rich, when your life has taken a wrong turn? You get tattoos and become a Juggalo.This certainly ain’t the beautiful people.And it’s not all stoners. There are Straight Edge Juggalos, and if one of the talking heads is to be believed, even brain surgeon Juggalos. But I’m guessing those are in the minority.This is not plastic-surgeried, dieted down to nothing television America. This is the people servicing you, doing those low paying jobs you’ve got contempt for.But they’re also us.They’re bonded as family, and that’s admirable.But they’re Americans.Watch this movie. Because first and foremost it’s watchable. Unlike so many of those YouTube clips, this has been made by professionals. Blow it up full screen, the HD is amazing.And marvel at the human circus.I’m not sure what it all means.But I can’t stop thinking of the view I’ve been afforded by watching it.http://lefsetz.com/wordpress/index.php/archives/2011/09/28/american-juggalo/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
