If you were going to declare a band's fans a gang would it be ICP's?

Apparently Juggalos and Juggalettes, fans of Insane Clown Posse (it's a rap band with...well, interesting songs, but the one about Shrub isn't on YouTube for some reason) are now a hybrid gang. Not sure what a hybrid gang is; do they slam Priuses or something?

So I'm thinking...there are bands hundreds of times worse than ICP, who've been around so long their original fans could have grandkids. (Now there's a scary thought: "Grandpa and Grandma are taking me to an ICP concert!&quot If you were going to declare a band's fans a gang, which band?

I'm going with those gangbangers One Direction. They just look like they stir up shit just on general principles.

I don't find them to have much talent either. But I think declaring their fans a gang a tad bit on the silly side. But people like me who liked the old NYHC scene were looked at in much the same way.

If there's one thing I don't miss about college, it's having to listen to some burnt-out moron in cargo shorts blather on about seeing "Dave" at Jones Beach every time I wanted to buy weed.
