Camp Flog Gnaw, originally known as OFWGKTA Carnival, was held in a parking lot outside of Los Angeles’ The Novo (which was called Club Nokia at the time) back in 2012. The same could be said for its 10th edition this weekend, but it’s a much bigger deal since it’s the parking lot of Dodger Stadium, the home of this year’s World Series Champions and, since 2018, the home of Tyler, the Creator‘s personal playground and musical paradise.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and T’s fans dressed like him to a T, from plush pink fur trapper hats and preppy red and floral cardigans to even his IGOR-themed baby blue suit and Chromakopia-inspired green military suit. “I wanted to build a place where n—as could just come and just be, and it’s beautiful to see that y’all have been rocking with me for real,” he said during his headlining set Saturday night (Nov. 16).
And as much as he built this space for his fans, Tyler also built it for his friends. The inclusion of fellow Odd Future members Syd, Earl Sweatshirt, Mike G, Left Brain and Domo Genesis on the lineup was an endearing through line. His photographer archivist Brick Stowell payed homage to the boisterous, yet beloved collective with the “Almost Famous” retrospective exhibit. And Tyler shouted out Lionel Boyce, the now-Emmy-nominated actor from The Bear who was roaming around the festivalgrounds, while performing “Rah Tah Tah” when he rapped, “Me and Lionel Boyce in drama class, my boy can act now.”
