I have been wondering about this too! this year my camp is bring out a PA system too. In the past, Ive been part of a camp that brought out sound equipment. everything was kept inside our open mic dome. I wasnt in charge of the equipment then, but the guy who was told me after the burn every year he...

The first time I saw anyone get carded was 2009, my friends walked up to the bar asked for a drink and got carded, I went to the other end of the bar flirted with a pretty older lady, and she made me an amazing cocktail! But last year most bars I went to carded, or atleast did the question method. y...

How well does that playa tech stuff work? I really like that it all packs up flat, but how well does it hold up? is it kinda like a 1 year thing, or do they last years? I guess it would depend of wear and tear out there. Ive always wanted to build some of it before. Ill have to check it out for the...

Actually that was what we used last year! I just felt alot of people didnt really get what it was for since they would just throw their bikes on the ground next to it. I would say through out the week, maybe only about 20 people actually put their bikes in it. I mean I thought the giant sign with a ...

Does anyone have or know where to find easy to build bike racks?
I am looking to build one for my camp!
Figured I'd ask ya'll before I just make my own up!

Well you can come dance, sing, and drink at the Champage Lounge for sure! I guess some of you are right, Ive never thought of it in that way. We arent trying to fund our entire camp from kickstarter, just trying to off set some of the cost. but I could see how some people would find it not kosher. a...

it is not begging, when you're offering something in return... as for you funding your own camp, good for you! My camp on the other hand is using our radical self reliance to organize several fundraisers for our camp. this is just one of those. There is no reason for you people to get so hurt over t...

you wont have any Liability at Burning Man if you and everyone in your camp just uses fake playa names! hah They cant sue you, if they cant find you! hahaha I would think that official Theme Camps would fall under the BMorg use at your own risk policy, just because theme camps are approved parts of ...

Hey Everyone! I am from the Champagne Lounge theme camp, We started a Kickstarter page to raise money for our Open-Mic Happy Hour and there is only about a week left! I know some of you on here in the past have spoken out against Theme Camps seeking out money this way, but we are a small camp and if...

well theme camps do fundraisers off the internet, why not do them on the internet and target the people on the internet most interested in Burning Man. Kickstarter is just another tool to raise funds, just like having a fund raising party. its everyone on the internet is invited. if you have a truck...

We would love to use Kickstarter to pay for any number of things that our camp requires on an annual basis.Things that currently come from dues or the partners pockets.I am not sure though how you get around this caveat found on all Kickstarter pleas. This project will only be funded if at... What ...

I dont think Kickstarter is that new, but after last year and the Burning Man people sending out all those emails about it and how all those cool art projects used it, I think more people are using it for fundraising! I think its just fine for theme camps to use kickstarter! its just another way to ...

If you are looking for some cheap shade, the shade cloth my camp uses is pretty good! its 60% so it blocks out most of the sun! it is very bare able underneath it, we used it to cover the part of our camp open to the public as well as covering where we put all the tents in the camp! Shade cloth webs...

Hey Everyone I was looking around on Kickstarter at all the Burning Man related projects and they look pretty sweet! maybe some of you guys will check these out, they all seem like some pretty cool thing that might be out on the playa this year! these are all just links to their Kickstarter Project ...
