Bounce, with the big Burning Man tattoo on his arm, right? He stopped by the eplaya M&G this year, and we talked a bit. Sorry the news isn't good. Do you know any further info? They have reported on the news recently that the entire town of Paradise has been destroyed.

Hi Marty, good to see you stopping by the bar! I'm glad to hear that you're remaining active, though like most of us who are beginning to advance in years to one degree or another, we have to gradually set aside things we were once easily able to do in our more youthful days. Stings a bit, but a goo...

Thanks for being you ZeugmaMethod!

G'Day SquirrelScotch! There are quite a few folks who come over from Australia every year. Keep poking around and I'm sure you'll meet a few. Meanwhile, welcome to eplaya!

BVB nails it....again....

This is the kind of thing where that pesky zero numbering sometimes trips me up, and I end up having to cipher it out on a scrap of paper... ...but I think yggy may only be 60 0 through year 9 = decade 1 10 through year 19 = decade 2 20 through year 29 = decade 3 30 through year 39 = decade 4 40 thr...

Happy Birthday ygmir!

Looking forward to next time ygmir!

Hey gang! It's been awhile. I've had a lot of catching up to do around home since I got back from the desert. I just wanted to belatedly say that I had a great burn this year, and certainly enjoyed the opportunity to finally get to meet several of you throughout the week, and renew a number of old f...

Welcome to the zoo JD!

That's a pretty darn good idea you've got there goodleaf! Thanks for sharing.

Far out tatonka!

...I'm logging out and not logging back in. That's nice. Burning Man really isn't everyone's cup of tea. It seems to me that it is much better for everyone that you realized this sooner, rather than investing a ton of time and money, and using up a ticket, only to figure it out later. I'm sure you'...

Sorry I won't be joining you for one of those delicious hummingbird tacos this year Professor, but I'll wave and kick up a bit of dust on the playa for ya!

Yep

I recall this question came up here on eplaya two or three years ago, and back then at least, it was confirmed that there was a temporary closing of the gate for a couple of hours just before the main event opening in order to reset computers, shift change, whatever. Not sure if any of this is still...

You'll get a good laugh at the thought of bringing your small-wheeled scooter once you get out there and get a sense of what the surface is actually like. It is sort of hard to imagine until you experience it firsthand. Definitely bring the bike though. Have fun InGearX!

AntiM, I'm so sorry to hear the news, I had no idea MyLarry had taken ill. My thoughts are with you both as you battle this.

Great to see you stopping in for a visit Marty! Glad to hear you're well, and excited about participating in Camp Envy. In my 'off' years I've certainly appreciated and enjoyed the online stream. I've found that it does kind of make you homesick though. Then again, on the up side, no cleaning and st...

I believe the button comes and goes...

This is the impression I have as well, though I am merely basing that on various unofficial posts I've read the last few months. I haven't had the need to try it myself, fortunately. I suggest keeping an active eye on it BBD. Good luck sir!

For a moment there, I almost thought I heard the faint sound of laughing coming from deep in the forest...

wasn't seeing the image (on my machine anyway) so I relinked it.

..and Yay for LIVE music instead of DJs!

Be sure you read and understand the Survival Guide and First Timers Guide before you do anything else.

Good luck

Yep, the butterflies are starting to come home to roost here too. Currently tuning and prepping the truck for the long drive out. Pulled the majority of my bins and boxes down off the big, dedicated Burning Man shelves the other day. Shelter shakedown is next, though I'm hoping to keep that as is un...
