I have asked the admins to delete this thread. The title to this thread is just wrong and offensive. Without naming the specific camp it's not accurate or proper to fall back on nationality because there are a number of Irish camps out there. That being said all this is just some whining story about...

Xenophobic no. Let's say it was Fat Chick camp. Would you say that I hated all fat chicks? If it was Spoon camp would you say I hated all kitchenware? Just looking to say what the fuck, give me a break, the whole thing was just so totally wrong and I have a chance to call shenanigans. I really don't...

The problem with arguing about music is that everyone is wrong. BM is a great place to get an appreciation for electronic music or if you want to watch how a DJ spins a good set watch how they manipulate the vinyl and watch the crowd's energy level. I love the boom boom camps, I never stopped bobbin...

an open letter to the Irish Bar camp at 2:30 and esplanade last year... I caught a camp mate of yours stealing a blanket from my camp. It was BM so I didn't forcibly take it back (don't fuck with a city boy). I said I'd walk him back so he could get something warm, that was cool with him, he said he...

******* WE HAVE OUR VILLAGE IDIOT! *******

man i can be a rude little shit... sorry 'bout that, it was 4:30 on a Friday, and I was ready for the weekend.

playa foot for dogs, great point.

camp dyslexia doesn't allow gods on the playa, too much moop.

OK virgin... equating kids can go with dogs can go is completely ass-backwards. This lesson was learned years ago and it's serious, the playa is a bad place for animals (damned dirty hippies aside). So, we'd have rave camps on one end and non-stop fucking barking at the other end. You obviously have...

would that be underground Art?

I don't know how I feel about boobies on the playa, with all the babies out there those nipples can't be safe. I heard there was a nasty teething incident out by the trash fence, those little... I swear if I can catch one it's going into thunderdome.

went to my first burn last year, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT for a month or so afterwards I had playa dreams, just me floating around the playa with the art cars and freaks... :) very relaxing. do you ever have this dream where you're standing on a greek temple in these sort of sun god robes and all these na...

how can you question the sanity of burners we're ALL mad here!

TWO BABIES ENTER!! ONE BABY LEAVE!!! TWO BABIES ENTER!! ONE BABY LEAVE!!!

I'd love to see infant combat night at Thunderdome! The fights could take a while though...

Welcome to burning man, here's your button. OMFG I thought people ran out of stuff to complain about.

I say we start a 'kill your own endangered species camp' where you can hand select, kill and burn an endangered species of your liking. We can camp between 'Club Seal' and 'Kick-A-Hippy' camps.

decorative fountain... another great idea.

LOL! The last guy who could do that they nailed to a tree... and he woulda been a GREAT burner too, being a carpenter and all.

technopatra - " I feel safer here than I ever felt" still on the playa? right on... info on Critical Tits is relayed on the down low, maybe those same channels can be used to strenghten awareness and keep the idiots in the dark. KIDS ON THE PLAYA... It would be bad for a first timer to bring a kid, ...

flashes at night reflect off the dust and ruin the shot every time, don't bother to bring one, the dust is always in the air, even 'inside'. Maybe an indirect flash would work better (anyone?). memory problem - there's thousands of pics of the man and the large, obvious stuff, take pics that truly i...

good stuff all around!! freznel lens - ooooohhh i like!!! the main problem as I see with wind drying is seperating the dust from the wind, playa mud is nasty tenacious stuff, grey mud... blech... I was also considering ther idea of misting it into the air, but I don't know how sanitary it would be (...

... the Space Cowboys Unimog... it brought tears to my eyes... first time I saw it was the throw down they did at the temple of gravity last year.. they FM transmitted the SLAMMING set and art cars showed up to retransmit... full surround disco...

I could see that being a cathartic experience, good pics I hope.

We need to tell the yahoos about the critical tits orgy that happens at sunset right before the burn, out beyond the trash fence... of course it's easy to sneak back in

Jafe - you could always let the air out of their tires. javascript:emoticon(':shock:') Shocked Talking to yahoos is pretty pointless... I got it! There's a few hundred people that the yahoos are blocking, right? Get them to start chanting MOVE THAT CAR! or some such harrassment, people love to shout...

Good: camelback (and extra cup for water moochers), head lamp, clean clothes sealed in a bag to wear on the ride home, a quality water mister spray bottle (the ones that you can pump and charge up are great!), a rebar puller, knockout pills, pedia-lite if you get behind on your water, knee pads for ...

I don't know if I get the woven towel part. What I do get is to make a heat chamber to roast the towels in. Black plastic to gather heat and clear to block out dust. Towels are absorbant but they're probably not made to _let_ _go_ of water. so... make the shroud for the shower out of fabric that wic...

lube for the chain and cans of air to blow dust out of the motor? how long do you think it will survive afterwards?

It doesn't take long to recognize natural selection... crowds and fire, it's 30,000+ people and the 'main event'. The fire FEELS amazing at quite a distance and the crowd of burners are diluted with the weekend yahoos, read the back of your ticket and if by that time you haven't had your fill of fir...

hey bob - what material are they made from? I checked the site, a $25 kilt is a bit too expensive to use as a rag.

there's gotta be a good joke in there about kilts being absorbant...

Idea: By using towels to wick up water from an evap pool, the grey water can evaporate much faster, mainly due to wind. I'm thinking that if one end of the towel is weighted and the other end has caribeeners so the towel can be dunked in the ick then hung over the pool to dry, would that work? Any t...

I don't think it's deity related at all. Vault - a high ceiling, in this case a euphamism for the sky, which I'm sure they thought was only a few thousand (hundred?) feet up there, stars are holes in the vault etc... I think of the smashing pumpkins video 'tonight tonight' which was done as a tribut...
