Re: Want to demo or teach martial arts?
I'll be camped across the street from you. If you have a mat, I can teach some basic ju jitsu.

Re: Serial Rapist on the playa
A similar thing happened to my friend at Camp Want-It, but they were not camp members. Some wack job was rubbing his hard cock on his stomach and hanging on to my friend's sister. She was trying to get him off her and leave him alone. Some dudes from Camp Want-It intervened and got a ranger. Turns o...

Re: Playa conditions?
One thing I love about Burning Man, is you cant trust anyone. One year I convinced several hundred people Daft Punk was playing at some random inner city camp and there were a ton of people there. I also convinced an entire camp of virgins they weren't burning the man that year due to wind condition...

Anyone have an inside scoop on this? Is it dry and hard (please) or light and fluffy like 2008 where a bike was useless?

Dj Swamp is insanely untalented and only got famous because he was Beck's DJ.

Re: Respectful/polite 24yr old seeking a camp- help?
I realize that if I don't find the camp I'm looking for I will have to join one of the more primitive camps or do it myself, but that wasn't what my post was about. It was about finding an open space in a more developed camp- if there is a spot in one, great, if not I'll have to manage. I realize i...

Re: Is Land floats away, maybe we can help.
Looks super cool, but they were incredibly dumb to not have spent some dough/time to ensure someone didn't set it free. Would LOVE to see it at BM though. Kickstarter?

Very well, perhaps TTITD is mostly an E-playa expression. But it's soooo tempting to pick on the DJs! :lol: I may not make it to TTITD this year, but if I do, I will have a couple of paiannas with me, yes. Really bad ones, of course -- what did you expect. But usable. I even know a piano tuner on t...

Let me see if I have this straight: You have been to TTITD 13 times, are an accomplished DJ, yet nobody is beating down your door to work your magic in their venue. Is that pretty accurate? If so, then I would say that you (as most of your contemporaries also happen to be) suck. Don't mean to be cr...

Question about leaving and coming back to the Playa
So, I am curious what is needed to leave and come back. We'll be showing up Monday, and coming back Thursday. Do we just need the ticket stub, or do we need to miraculously not destroy a wristband or whatever in that time span?

OK, i finally got off my ass and got some music online. This is a mix I did kind of in honor of the San Francisco sound. Funky, jazzy and a little deep.
