Though music and dancing is part of Burning Man, there is no "official" line-up. This is not a sponsored concert or rave or any other such thing. Virtually everything you see, hear, or interact with in Black Rock City is participant created. If a band or a dj is performing they are not paid for it. Everyone shares their personal talents and contributions freely, without money, including performers. Some people on here might flame you for the way you asked your question. I am just trying to help you understand how some of it works. Buring Man is a mind shift.

Do not fret, you will find what you are looking for once you are there, but the discovery of exploring Black Rock City anew each year (or for the first time) is a key part of the experience. Some camps will list their events or indicate who is performing, but many won't. In some ways it doesn't matter.

Another thing I should mention is that Burning Man goes way beyond just music. Music is only a slice of the whole pie. I love music and am involved with a sound camp, but I encourage you to explore freely all that Burning Man holds, music or not. Burning Man will come soon enough and you will see and learn. In other words, wait till the event.

That's my two cents. Peace

Jordan -

That was very nice of you.

Assuming that this was a real post, it does concern me that this poster seems to know so little about the event as to ask this question. Burning Man not a music festival by a long shot. The event has extremely harsh weather, no vending & plush support services & would be hard on most casual concert goers or even desert rave fans.

Its hard not to worry what would happen if someone just showed up expecting Burning Man to be a musical festival like Glastonbery or Coachella.

You know, rereading what I posted and I'm sorry if that was a little harsh.

Its entirely possible that you know its not just a music festival. That's just being overly protective the way Burners can be to newbies. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Look at Theme Camp listings to find camps that plan on having that kind of music. Also the big music (electronic music / dance) camps tend to be at the ends of the horseshoe (2 o'clock & 10 o'clock if you look at the city layout as a clock with the man at the center.) Mostly you'll find what you want when you get there.

But if you are interested in finding out what other participants are doing there is the What, Where, When which you get at the gate. That helps me to find out what things I want to participate in or where what I do would be appreciated the most. On the other hand wandering aimlessly usually allows discovery of the more interesting kinds.

I hope that helps.

Alright, where's my pitchfork and torch? I just know that they're around here somewhere...

Priority list for Burning Man-
1) Survival
2) Leave no trace
3) Radical self-expression and participation
4) Art
5) Music appreciation
6) Drugs

Come with no expectations, leave without other's stuff but make sure to take EVERYTHING you brought with you- back. Other than that- you're on your own.

You wanna find trance? That's about as hard as finding a sex shop in Amsterdam's red light district. Seriously, once you get out there you'll find that escaping trance is what you should really be concered with. As for a line-up...Go stand near the man, listen for a beat you like, and follow it. That's what I do, and it always works out well for me.

If you feel your pelvis being inexorably being pulled toward 6:00 between Venus and Earth on Tuesday night, you may be in the grips of this:

Aside from the poor grammar and lack of proofreading, I also put the wrong address: SCARAB Camp is at 6:30 between Venus and Earth.

jonesing for the playa is clouding my thinking.....
