I just bought a ticket for a friend and found out that the price goes up to $40 in a week (On July 24th). Glad I checked now - saved me $12 that I will put in the BurningMan travel fund for next year.

At $28 for an adult ticket ...........whaddabargain! As far as $ is concerned it is a no-brainer. Minimal entrance fee, and if you have a few odds and ends that you would need for any campout, you should be all set. AND if you're in the Southeast, you don't have to travel 2,500 miles+ to attend. I c...

Surprised that I haven't seen more posts regarding Transformus. Thanks for posting all the info Maya!

Looking forward to my first burn event in Asheville, NC. Hope to see lotsa people from NC and the Southeast.

Wasn't there.......

For us East Coasters it is all about Transformus ::::: at least until we can make it out to the desert.

Hey Ya'll - Looking forward to the burn, but also for the Southeast Warm-up! Transformus promises to be a helluva lotta fun, and is pretty cheap too. I'm from NC, but Asheville, NC isn't far for most of you from SC. Hope to see ya'll there! See the link to Transformus in an earlier post to this topic.

Nice. Thanks for the link.

I hear you! I'm feeling the same thing today (and most days). I'm ready to leave behind not just my boss, but the familiar world altogether and experience BM for the first time! Happy Trails. See you in 166 days!

Hey III, thanks for the insight. I was looking for someone that would tell me how the DVD compares to the actual event on the playa. You mentioned some great points. Hopefully I won't be perceived as one of the mundane types. Although I'm still open to participating in a theme camp or other project ...

I'm a BMAN virgin, but trying to learn as much as possible before the event so that I can get the most out of it. (read: trying not to relive my freshman year in high school :D ). I've ordered my ticket, reserved a relatively cheap rental from Budget so I can drive from NC, and I'm reading several o...

There was an earthquake magnitude 1.4 (small) on the playa last night. Someone trying out a really heavy art car or something?

Hi all! I'll be going to BM this year. I bought my ticket, so now it is just a matter of planning the whole gig. This will be my first time. (Funny, I can't remember the last time I categorized myself as a virgin). I would be interested in meeting some of you locals sometime before making the trip. ...

I just found out about Burning Man recently - stumbled upon it on the web and was instantly intrigued -- so much so that I bought a ticket 3/1/2004. I am really excited about experiencing this! Anyway, I'll be travelling from Raleigh, NC and plan to arrive on 8/30. I may not be able to stay the enti...
