i completely agree with you step correct, about burning man. i've never been, but i've been to raves, and frankly, im not too impressed with the sound of burning man.

not to mention that it's become all corporate now.

i would go, though, just to chill, but im not gonna dress up like a space hippy when i go...

i dont need some special festival to express who i am, i do it all year long, thankyouverymuch :D

All this Burning Man talk has had me spacing out on the job reminiscing of past years. You folks who live in Cali are so damn lucky. I have to drive 2500 miles to get there. Mind you, that's part of the fun to me, but it also makes it so much more expensive.

It basically is like a mad max situation. The place becomes it's own city for a week. And according to my freinds when you come back you are better than everyone else that didn't go. :?

Yes. To top things off one of them plays dubstep (if only for about a year) and he thinks he's like a god or something now. I'll be frank he really blows as a DJ but I bet he's gonna see some eal action on the decks while he's there...and come back with even more of a fucking watermelon head because of it.

All of my friends that go wont stfu and the lot of them get a lil big headed about it.. I'm sure it's great time and all but keep your feet on the ground people. I have a buddy who quit a good paying job to go (he's worked there 4 years) another friend pretty much now hates life all year and looks foward to nothing else (pretty much his exact words) It's rediculous!
yeah my ex went last year and thought it was the best thing ever, and im sure it was really good but she did go a bit over the top about. she talked about pretty much nothing else for ages when she got back and it was like she had some sort of post-burning man depression when she got back cos nothing could ever compare to burning man. shes absolutely gutted that she cant go this year and thinks that the week its on shes going to be really depressed knowing whats going on there
