the end of burning man?

I'm thinking they just need to relocate a little farther from silicon valley, maybe some place in Montana.

Its on my bucket list of things to do but im hoping it wont die out before i get that chance.

Nah. It would not matter where they relocated to. I have to admit, if I went I would probably White Ocean it. The idea of travelling half way around the world, then sorting yourself out with a mobile home, sorting food, water and supplies, then driving into the desert for 9 days sounds like a real ball ache. I like a bit more luxury.

The purists are no different than people who were into a band before they got famous. They spend years saying this banned should be bigger, then when the band make it big. They piss and moan about the new fans jumping on the bandwagon and how the band aren't what they were!

$350+ for just a ticket is a bit much IMO. it was on my list but im afraid im too old to enjoy this shit anymore.

much prefer my fostex 900 headphones/dac/amp, a good beer, in the comfort of my own home. call me lazy, whatever.

Most feastival sin the Uk are mega money now. Glastonbury is £225 + booking, Creamfields and Reading are similar. Some have pay in instalment plans. I don't struggle financially, but I do wonder how kids afford them.

I would rather that than dancing with the yardies, scallies, or the crips.

True desert people just makes it sound elitist. You could say the same thing about people attending KU in Ibiza with the celebrities that were there.

Not gonna say going to Burning Man never crossed my mind before as it looks like one of those festivals you might enjoy but look at those traffic jams pictures..

I'd be in a bad mood on the trip going there (even with the excitation) .. I do not even want to think about returning home! I would cut my veins off and fight with everyone..

The people in that photo don't seem to understand the shortest route between 2 points.

What's the big deal with that? People fall over every day. Even sand people, whatever the fuck that ?
