Post by Downforce » Mon Aug 23, 2010 9:04 pm

Been following for the past few years and after listening to BMIR for past few days and reading everything I can about BM...I gotta get to the Playa....

No prep and no tickets as of yet...coming from the East Coast(DC)....PLEASE tell me how [b]YOU[/b](if you were me) would do this....the man burns in 12 days....I have a few bucks to fly out and a hell of a lot of determination...

any suggestions are welcome!

Man burns in 12, but if you only saw that you'd be spending a ton of money and missing everything that makes the event worthwhile.

To have a good time, I'd get there by Weds or Thurs latest- and even that's too late in my book. Monday or nothing.

If you have the money- totally doable. Figure buying your event tickets, plane tickets, finding a car rental place that will actually rent to you to go to the event, buying your tent, food, water, booze in Reno..... not cheap.

I think this is legal in Nevada.
Eric is on the mark. Airline ticket, event ticket, money, list of supplies and a huge amount of will.
If you have specific questions, ask them here and all will try to help you.
See you in a week.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me
