Yeah Jovankat, I remember something like that, though perhaps mostly pertaining to the Buying/Selling ticket threads?

Sooooo... If someone wants to buy a presale ticket to guarantee entrance into BRC, that same person could also buy main sale tickets and then sell the presale ticket to another burner? is that kosher?

I'm sure just about everyone has thought of that... thus, my prediction is the presale (maybe we should just call them resale) tickets will fly out the door as fast as the main sale ones. And we'll see an inordinate number of them for sale in July. We all know goddamm well they will sell easily.

this is why it our job, no, our DUTY to make sure we let anyone and everyone know that




burning man sucks, don't go.



no seriously.

tell everyone you have to share cooties with nasty hippies in a radioactive wasteland while enduring sleep dep., psychotronic experimentation, piss warm beer, and bad trance music for 7 days in the hot sun and oh yeah....dust storms....huge fucking haboobs.

the indian tacos are the best thing about this shitshow, and you can get those in fernley, so just save your fucking money and go to a local burlesque show if you wanna wear dark carnival horizantal stripe stockings and get drunk on absinthe while pretending you've moved on from goth...

i digress.

where was i...

oh yeah....sucks.....i heard it really sucked this year, and it's no longer "cool" so, you know, why bother...




ok....you have your talking points....go out and spread the word.

I agree with Simon. We need videos of lightning strikes and over flowing porta potties. More talk of eight hour long dust storms. Get with it people.

Oh, and I hope your Christmas was fucking wonderful captain. My love to the first mate.

All the tomfooolery aside... We've been buying presale tickets for the past three years because we could (barely) afford it and wanted to give back to the low income folks. Wasn't that the Burning Man way? Then I found out that if you had an "in" you'd get a $250 per ticket income tax reduction for the dif (we didn't). Now this. Why do I feel used? Man, it's true I guess that everything in this world is fixed. Maybe we're naive but now we have to re-think this whole thing.....
One day we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny.
