People Bitching About Gigsville...
People Bitching About Gigsville...
Everyone seems to be bitching about Gigsville... WTF?
Art Cars; a Mobile Bar, a Garage (Skynyrd) that saved so many
people when something broke, Shade & Misting on Coral Reef,
Pig Roasting & Food for many... eta...eta..eta.
What is everyone bitching about?
Gigsville is by far one of the most solid, giving, friendliest places
on the playa...
As long as people don't behave like idiots/assholes you're get along
just fine. If they are, we're far more proactive about dealing with
those kind of people.
If you had a bad experience, you might have deserved it; if not for
the thin skinned or sarcasm impaired hippie / druggie / raver / jock
people that wander through being assholes, I sure everyone else
had a good time.

Gigsville! Early home of the Great Canadian Beaver Eating Contest, home of the Island of Misfit Strippers, The CarBque. I have so many fond memories of that place and I have never even camped there. It will always be one of my favorite places to visit. Who could ever speak a negative word?

A mysterious stranger helped me out in the thursday dust storm, the one time I left camp w/out mask & goggles. He wandered out of the dust and handed me a mask & brand new mil-spec gogs. M*A*S*H 4207th salutes him and Gigsville!

I don't care what the borg says: feather-wearers will NOT be served in Rosie's Bar.
When I ask how many burns, I mean at BRC.

It's not about the assholes, as you say, that are the problem, its about the assholes or might I say, the pretentious assholes camped in gigsville that are the main source of all the problems in BRC!Rommel wrote:As long as people don't behave like idiots/assholes you're get along just fine.

Now that would be a wonderful power for Gigsville to have but I highly doubt Gigsville is the source of **all problems in BRC**. Interesting point of view though.
knowing that you didn't go to BM this year makes me wonder what your problem is with Gigsville, especialy to be asking about the rebar. Nice try to stir things up though.

I'm just going along with the title: "People Bitching About Gigsville!"
"...not for the thin skinned or sarcasm impaired hippie / druggie / raver / jock people that wander through..."

We drove down Coral Reef on the ugly dragon art car when the rainbow thing was going down.
Some Villains were playing beer softball in the middle of the street.
We ran over all the beer cans and blew them up.
Villains threw remaining beer cans at us.
They exploded on the back of the art car
We all laughed.
It was good.
BTW, since when did you two villains care about what the fish-fry think?

Gigsville is what a village should be at BRC. They look out for one-another, they welcome visitors and at the same time they take care of problems that need to be taken care of.
No need for BLM in gigsville, they police their own stuff. (although you are probably safer being apprehended by the cops. )
