Line Out - Comments on Also Seen at Bumbershoot (But Not One of the Reasons Why it Was So Great) http://lineout.thestranger.com/2007/09/also_seen_at_bumbershoot_but_not_one_of I had no idea the Insane Clown Posse changed things up and started performing as a weird acid-jazz/circus freak/trapeze/burlesque sideshow... it was scary. But at least these guys weren't spraying the crowd with Faygo....

The music was some of the most terrible sounds I ever heard. I don't think anyone was watching them because they thought they were good, but it was more or less everyone just wondering "what the fuck?"
They creeped me out.

I thought that was much more interesting than their choreographed stuff, just seeing them do whatever strikes their fancy. Of course it would have been much nicer if the music had been better.

I only saw their shows at night, but during the show Monday night, I couldn't pull myself away to go see Grayboy.

It was kind of like a circus act with trapeze, fire laced hoola-hoops and jumproaps, great choreographic dancing and strange stunts. But there was a unique and gothic-burlesque feel to it.

It was a nice break from music once in a while and anyone who actually watched their entire shows can not deny how talented Vau de Vire really were.

Don't hate on them just because they danced to Love Rollercoaster, a song those evil Chili Peppers covered years ago.
