Burning Man
« on: July 6, 2004 06:54 pm CDT »
I'll be attending Burning Man this year, and was wondering if anyone else happened to be going.  It's held at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada.  If you don't know what it is, I doubt you'll be going, but just in case there are any of you out there who like experiences of a life time, you should check it out.  It takes place around labor day (Monday Aug. 30 to Monday Sept. 6).

http://www.burningman.com

If you are serious about going, let me know and maybe we could meet up in reno and travel to the playa together.  If you are really interested, you should seriously check it out.  This year's theme is the Vault of Heaven--I really think this year will be the best one yet (based on themes from past years).  If you don't like extreme weather conditions, you probably won't like it.  I believe it's either a love it or hate it type thing, so before you decided (if you are serious about it), make sure you read over the site thoroughly.

I'm going with my boyfriend, a few of his friends, and a few of my friends.  2 of his friends have gone 2 years in a row (2002 + 2003), so we have some experience and some cool ideas for our art.

You do realize that whoever throws this thing is making around 2 million dollars dont you.  Have fun at your 1 week corporate art festival.

You're here to create. Since nobody at Burning Man is a spectator, you're here to build your own new world. You've built an egg for shelter, a suit made of light sticks, a car that looks like a shark's fin. You've covered yourself in silver, you're wearing a straw hat and a string of pearls, or maybe a skirt for the first time. You're broadcasting Radio Free Burning Man -- or another radio station.

You're here to experience. Ride your bike in the expanse of nothingness with your eyes closed. Meet the theme camp -- enjoy Irrational Geographic, relax at Biancas Smut Shack and eat a grilled cheese sandwich. Find your love and understand each other as you walk slowly under a parasol. Wander under the veils of dust at night on the playa.


Wtf? I thought it was kinda like survivor. And wed all go just to see LW ;D

You have no idea.  I don't care who makes how much money..  it was one of the most memorable weeks of my life, and I would pay twice as much as they are asking any time..  (this is Adam posting)

Actually, a knife is a very important thing to bring.

Drugs aren't a required thing, although you will find a lot here.

Adam went last year and didn't do any drugs, and still had a wonderful experience.

Well, for someone who said that they thought Burning Man was a scam even though they attended it more than once, I seriously doubt you can show me how to live.
