So, who thinks Burning Man will never recover? I think the ship is taking on water and going down.

It's over for BMORG, but Burning Man will continue without it, and probably be better.

What's the situation like on 447 this year with regards to police presence? It is going to be like 2018 with lots of people getting pulled over? Anyone have actual reports of what is happening yet?

Looking for a few more people to help with a large scale LED art project, if you can arrive early and stay late (Monday, Sep 3 at least). Must already have a ticket. Message me for details, thanks!

[quote="Melonblue"]Nimbus and Lulu answered this question on the AMA reddit - their answer was "Lastly, having purchased a ticket does not entitle the ticket holder to also bring in a vehicle. Yes, it is very real that Gate will turn away a car with no vehicle pass, even if everyone in that car is h...

I think you can safely assume you will be able to buy a Vehicle Pass at Will Call.

BMORG has never said there will be a limit to how many they sell. It is all just a scare tactic to try to get people to carpool and make them extra cash while pretending not to raise prices.

I believe the short entry and exodus times had much to do with the nice weather. Without all the dust it was much easier for people to see where they were going.

If you try to say this years theme quickly... "caravansary"... it comes out sounding like "car and vans fee".

Is this a coincidence?

No, I couldn't find anything on the blog saying the state is charging BM for road repairs. That sounds ridiculous if it is true. Burners buy tons of gasoline, (among other things) in Nevada and I'm sure some of the tax collected pays for road repairs. Maybe they could use some of that money to pave ...

Well, this new car access fee is great, it will reduce cars and raise about $1.4 million extra for BM to do who knows what with. I'd like to suggest a few more fees: There are just too many art cars on the playa and it is dangerous to get around. Let's have a $100/artcar DMV registration fee to cut ...

The problem with tickets and scalpers can only be fixed by having more tickets available than people that want to attend. Since the BLM controls attendance, the only solution is to reduce the number of people that WANT to attend. I propose we do this by banning all the large scale sound camps. The p...

Hi-

I am looking for a contact for Jobi Coffee Tea and Me camp at 9 o'clock plaza, please PM me thanks.

Did anyone ever see the NoWhere to NoWhere monorail running? I crossed through it every night and never saw it move.

After 6 BM's of riding a recumbent bicycle, this year I brought an electric skateboard. I had a ton of fun riding it around, and a number of people thanked me for not having a gas engine. It had front and rear lighting for night time use. I felt a bit "closer" to pedestrians than when on a bike. As ...

I think we should start listing the camps that were too loud, so people will be aware of them next year. I was camped across the street from Brain Wash & Set at 7:30 & Ego. These guys set up a large disco dome and were way over the sound limits on Thurs, Fri and Sat nights. I will add one good thing...

I lost a black hat in the deep playa after the temple burn.
The wind probably blew it to the trash fence.
Was a Wild West style hat with initials K.P. on it.

thanks,
Mark

My primary volunteer had to cancel out due to a schedule
change, so I am still hoping one or two of you will show up
on Saturday. Thanks!

OK, I have a volunteer. However, having an extra one or a backup is always good. If you want to help out, come look for me on the playa Saturday Aug 27, I will start around noon-2pm or so. The location is around 7:30 and 500 feet from the Esplanade. Look for a silver/grey van with a raised roof. I a...
