Let me just say that this is the funniest idea for performance art that I have ever heard. What would the interaction be like? Dress like a whore, turn a trick, have your boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse beat you for cheating before they collect their cut. Get high to forget, steal food for your illegita...

"] Hold it in an even more remote and inhospitable place. Maybe northern Idaho or Montana or even way up in Canada somewhere. Are you familiar with the Craters of the Moon National Park? Its a lava flow. If you want Burning Man to be more extreme, it could be moved there. With out med tents! BWAHAHA...

"I'm trying to find a way for my daughter to get off the playa so I can pick her up and bring home in time for school - without having to pay for a ticket myself or make my friends pay the $20 to drive her out.... Thanks! -Zoey "On the other hand, if she is not hauling a lot of stuff. She could hik...

I've done both a used RV and school bus. The RV was great, 26ft slept 6, $2700 plus ins. I had to get the wiring checked so that all the lights worked. After BM I sold the RV to a friend who rides dirt bikes for $2000 so I didn't have to clean it. And the insurance was almost 100% refunded. Totally ...

Will there be a special sections for over worked theme camp organizers, those who don't know how to gift, and those who have hidden in an RV all week?
If this is all one section can we seperate the organizers? You know they will just try to connect the other 2 groups.

Look in to the Department of Mutant Vehicles, they can tell you what constitutes an art car. With a few modifications you may not have to leave your bike at home.

Because it is easiest to anchor shade to a vehicle and use the vehicle for storage, most will camp with their vehicle. Plus it makes things handy. If you decide not camp with your car, parking is generally outside the last street, between the road to the airport and the road to the DPW compound. But...

First check your area for fire spinning groups. If that fails see if there is a SCA group near you or try a dojo. You can also look in to baton spinning and gymnastics. If all else fails, get a staff, pin some material to both ends and have your friends watch you. If you have no friends, tape yourse...

You can always choose the bus option, you can go from SF to Reno one way for about $30. But it takes for ever and the people are ... interesting. http://www.greyhound.com There is also the Green Tortoise option. http://www.greentortoise.com/burning.man.festival.html They have a hostel in SF and do f...

Hmm, this makes me wonder how many people who go to the event have psorisis.
It also makes me wonder if it keeps them from taking their clothes off.

The BRCPO is already getting questions about volunterring. So to answer some of them: Q: Can I volunteer? A: Yes. Q: Which shifts are open? A: The BRCPO does not have a schedule, if you want to work please show up. If you just want to hang out and socialize, please show up. If you just can't stand t...

Ah yes, well there you have it. I could explain this but I wont. Just keep in mind that the BRCPO volunteer base is all inclusive. We allow any one to volunteer. But we do ask that you: 1. Keep the BRCPO clean. 2. Quit if you aren't having fun. You can always come back later. 3. Respect our "go take...

First and foremost the Black Rock City Post Office is performance art. We play on the idea of bureaucracy gone awry, too much paper work and even more corruption. After you have filled out enough paperwork to gag a horse we will send you to the next window to do it all again. The idea here being tha...

I am looking for some advice on how to make this expiereance work.(snip)First things first can i go by myself? Where will i stay? How will i get food and water? Just give me a little direction. Thanks, Mustang First read the first timers guide. Then get involved. Try volunteering somewhere. Be will...

Okay so I take it that nobody knows about the status of the showers in Gerlach. If a solar shower and wash cloth doesn’t cut it for you there are other ways to get clean-ish during the event. Gray (a guy at the airport) has, in the past, brought a couple of bathtub inserts and a water pump. Bring so...

I had just gotten up, let me correct that.
The showers were avalible in 03, and closed in 04. Will they be open in 05?

Many of you are under the impression the BRCPO is an official Burning Man funded camp. It isn't. And never has been. The Black Rock City Post Office is a private theme camp, and does not receive any funding from the Burning Man organization. The BRCPO receives a majority of it's funding from the it’...

It is my understanding that the LLC bought the pink building just playa side of the taxidermist where the $5 showers were in (Gerlach) 2004.

Q:The Gerlach showers were not open in '05, but will there be showers in '06?

Would you like to send a message to a friend who can’t make it to Burning Man 2k5 from the event? Or would you like to have a short story, pen pal connection, or image waiting to greet you when you return to the default world after the event? This year, in a fund raising effort, the Black Rock City ...
