Burning Man here I come from Marin
Burning Man here I come from Marin
I just got my tickets for my 1st burn and I cannot wait! The anticipation is like slowly riding up a roller coaster waiting for the crescendo. Going Solo like Han in my Falcon. Wanted to go all my life, so I could say this is a dream come true.

Wonderful!
Read the Survival Guide

. . . though at this point the 2011 guide is due any day, and will have updates.
I'm glad you're getting your dream come true, but try to (TRY) to wipe your mind clean of expectations. Prepare for everything and then some, and then just see what happens. It could be anything from a terrible time to the best thing ever--to different people at the very same 'Burn.

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

Welcome Gonzo!
Just wait tell you've finished your first ride on "Burning Man" you'll be waiting 358 days tell it starts again. And that time will pass even slower than the line to get back on the roller coaster!
If you haven't started yet, you don't have a whole lot of time to get prepared. Read everything and memorize the Survival Guide and First Timers Guide!
