The moon has gotten too commercial. And I heard that BassNectar isn't playing on the moon this year. I'm not going to the moon this year.

I'm willing to bet actual money that there will be plenty of full moons on the playa this year. The shirt-cocker contingent alone will be several solar systems worth.

There should be an organized protest against this...


Spot lights gleaming off hundreds of pastey white bare asses, perhaps something that would rival the full moon should it have chose to come then.

I like it when it's a little sliver of a cresent chasing the sunset or just above the sun rise.

And a protest to the protest....Can you say "Billion Booty March"?

Without the moon, we'll just have to read by the light of Mars...isn't it supposed to be "closer to the playa this year than in 50,000 years"?

Anyone remember the moon at the 2001 burn? I was getting strange feelings before I left Benicia....That moon...and the dust devils pretty much confirmed something was about to happen.

Yeah, the 2009 Burn was a full moon, when you could finally see it. What do you call a whiteout at night?

A 2012 Friday full moon will be pretty full on Saturday.

It'll be easier to pee on the playa then. The full moon in 09 made it difficult.
