Heavy Metal-Rap Music Festival Comes To Sane And Quiet End

July 21, 2003

The Beacon Journal is reporting that the four-day concert headlined by INSANE CLOWN POSSE passed without any of the havoc feared by local authorities and township residents.

"On Sunday, campground manager Evan Kelly said he expected most of the estimated 5,000 INSANE CLOWN POSSE fans would leave after the headliner of the heavy metal-rap music festival finished its final set," according to the paper

" 'They go on at 10 p.m., and the concert ends with the Faygo Armageddon — a mass spray fight using the sticky soda,' said Kelly. 'I would think we'll have things pretty well wrapped up 11:30.'

"Several hours earlier, clouds began to move in over the concert site at Nelson Ledges Quarry Park, off state Route 282. 'I'm ready for the rain to wash over everything and then we'll have lots of cleanup ahead of us tomorrow,' Kelly said.

"As of Sunday evening Kelly said he was told by Portage County sheriff's deputies that a few arrests had been made for possession of marijuana. 'Nothing more serious than you would see outside a bar at closing time,' Kelly said. 'I think it's gone better than I or anyone else expected.' " Read more.
