If this is in fact the case, you need to have several people confront and distract him, then destroy this dangerous prank by breaking it into small pieces. If he gets angry, just tell him is all a joke and laugh.

Leave at 7:00 am. I hope this info helps. You will also have hundreds if not thousands of tiny decisions like this while you plan your adventure to Black Rock City. It's best to become decisive and self sufficient, as your survival in the desert for a week depends on it. Introduce yourself and tell ...

RIP Rip Taylor

I sincerely don't know how long it will take to rebuild our country, our world standing and our reputation as a world leader, once this nightmare has ended. The White House is nothing more that a dirty diaper stain reflection of it's defective occupant. My guess is this country will need 20 years to...

The playa provides, and perhaps losing my iPhone is part of the journey in this magical place. I'm making a request to the universe for my phone to be returned, if that's meant to be. Two hours before I married the love of my life on the playa, he lost my iPhone on our way from the BRC Municipal ai...

It almost feels like seeing an elderly person at the customer service desk in Walmart and they're sending thousands of dollars to a scammer overseas---and nothing you say to them will convince them they are getting scammed.

1) What is the combination to the lock?

Really?

Only the true owner would know the combination to the lock.

This is truly trying to find a needle in a haystack. This pee sized diamond is covered in dust and on the ground somewhere on the 7 square mile playa. I hope you get a Burning Man miracle and your diamond is returned. You might want to check your home owners insurance policy to see if a replacement ...

shaped like a sickle, large kevlar wick

Any more detail on this that you could share? Where, when, maybe a picture of it or one similar?

My wanting to be a part of more, has less to do with the art and more to do with just seeing the city rise from nothing. But practically speaking, waps are given sparingly, and to people with special skill sets (I’ve been told) so.. that clashes with my ultimate wish to solo camp for my first burn....

Somewhere out in deep playa, maybe around the Head Maze, my hat went missing. I'll spare you the details , but if you found what you'd think as a fairly expensive, big city type of hat, Let me know and I can give more details. What an amazing Burn that was for me. I hope people felt the same. Many ...

Welcome Mel, I love your intro. You'll fit in with this dusty bunch just fine. The idea of first timers coming and enjoying the city without going really big on art is pretty simple. So many don't quite grasp the lay-of-the-land prior to their first visit. Many have spent the better part of the week...

I'm sure you've found your local regional group here https://regionals.burningman.org/regionals/north-america/connecticut/ . If you really want to attend Burning Man, plan for yourself. So often a few friends start to dream about going, and one by one, each panics at the prospect and drops out. Pers...

I find the discussion of attempting to increase the number of any particular group a bit bizarre. Burning Man does not survey who it sells tickets to, nor does it partition out batches of tickets for any group based on ethnicity. ANYONE who wants to buy a ticket, can buy a ticket. It's what radical ...

Looking to chat with local Connecticut or New England recent BM attendees to discuss logistics, the event, and making new friends to travel with. Welcome to eplaya. There is a large number of people traveling from the east coast---including NY, RI & MA. Depending where you're located, you can find ...

That's a very good resource. Well done. How many years have you been on the playa?

Ticket and vehicle pass, $600ish
Air flight if you fly, $500ish
Food, $250ish
Camping gear, tent, sleeping bag and comfort things, $500ish
Set aside $2000 for this adventure---about the same as you'd spend on a Caribbean cruise.

I didn't make it to Black Rock City this year, so now I have to dream through your eyes.
So, I gotta know, everybody; how was it?
(details please)

What kept you away from Burning Man this year? Did you have a ticket but cancelled as time got close?

Can somebody please translate this in English?

I am inspired by this festival since the movie The Girl of the Song. I want to live this experience that besides being able to feel in the skin I want to add in the soul. It's unique.

Ok. Last prep day. Summer's been too busy for extensive prep, but we'll be fine with our needs. Distracted with the death of a parent, backpacking trips, life, etc. So......I'm still looking for a concise listing of camps and their events. Also a target area to camp while not "belonging" to a camp....

Not sure I'm qualified to answer as 2019 was our first Burn. We had an amazing week, but we did see a few small pinholes in the culture. Hello BHM, as a first time burner, you are VERY qualified to jump in on this. As the next few weeks pass, your experiences and interactions will rattle around in ...

Bikes that are taken for convenience are usually used for a short time then just abandoned. Literally thousands of bikes are collected on the playa from people who lost them, had them stolen or just brought a junk bike and decided to leave it rather than dealing with it. You can make a report with t...

Alrighty then. I'm sold.

Hi! It’s my first year...I’m camping at 2:30 but am planning on spending a lot of time around 9:30/10, is a normal bike the best mode of transportation between the 2? I understand they are very far apart... Thank you! They are pretty far apart, but you Just have to head across the open playa to go ...

is there a ticket on that table?

Your wife said "NO".

Can I take my POPUP CAMPER out early? As in, Saturday before the burn? Also, can I arrive Monday?? I’ve spent an hour scrolling websites, and haven’t found the answer... Unless you have a Work Access Pass (WAP) you can not arrive before the gates open. The intent is to allow larger camps to start b...

Veiled snark: it's what we do best.
