Never been to Burning Man
Curious about the Burning Man Festival
Don't know what the Burning Man Festival is
Daunted at the thought of going it alone
This is Air Forum member's opportunity to hang with experienced Airstream burners.
This will be a loose grouping of like minded Airstreamers.
At this stage no Pot Lucks or organized events are scheduled.
But, "what is Burning man", Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what RED looks like to someone who is blind.
Everyone is well versed in the difference between naked and nekkid, right?
Naked = no clothes
Nekkid = no clothes and up to something
From everything I've heard about Burning Man, there's lots of both.
At the RV dealership where I get my AS worked on, a guy was so psyched about it, he kept showing me Web sites and pictures. "My whole family goes," he said. "It's like a big family reunion. It's just like any other reunion. Except me and my moms and sister and stepdad are naked in all the family photos."
Tee. Hee. But the art, the ART, bikes, the freedom of expression, the lack of commercialism, the barebones-edness is pretty cool!
I hope everyone has a fantastic time, and gets the crevices clean after! My work forbids extended vacay during summer. :-(

Not everyone is naked
or nekkid.
In fact, most people are clothed.
The clothing may be uh...quite creative at times.
But lots of people wear what they do at home.
Don't want to scare anyone away.
But the point is...
everyone is free to do and wear (or not wear) what they want
and it's all okay.
And it is very hot.
And dusty and dirty.
You bring everything with you
and take it all away with you.
(no water, no trash services)
It's a tough camp.
But well worth the trouble.
The art, the art cars, and THE ART.
The people, the community, the camps...
Read everything on the web site, google, and YouTube.
Then go with an open mind.
You will be amazed.
Hey did you get my email asking if that was you driving east near Palm Springs about 10 days ago? I thought I saw you and I was driving to our house in Palm Springs. Remember me? from Tahoe. You came and picked up a bunch of stuff from me. and BMAN 2 years ago.

Yay, Michael! See you there [again] (selfless plug). This time I vow to have a battery in the Sovereign and not leave it beside the highway. I wonder if we can track down Jim Rutherford? I'd hate to be without his margaritas. I'm going to bring lots of icecicle lights to maybe help you and Dennis not run into things...
Got any ideas where you're going to put down the center stake? Hopefully about 6 blocks out on either 3 or 9.
Do we get to co-op the name Burnstream Court?
If you're an early poster on this thread, are you a charter member of the Artzilla Burnstreamers?
Is there any way to contain the excitement?
Do tickets really go on sale TOMORROW AT 10:00 AM Pacific Coaster Time? YES!
Being the totally nekkid kind of person that I am condemned to be, I am bringing my Geolocator shirt so as not to offend...
