 Burning Man 2011 
#516747 - 01/21/11 06:24 PM (15 years, 4 months ago) |
|

I was talking about this with some friends this week and one of them scored some tickets the other day. Looks like the plan is to rent an RV in Wyoming and drive that beast out there for the week. Who else is going to the 2011 event? Fractal, you should go again and we'll each take 7 grams and lose it!  i can't go to burning man and not do psychedelcis. or, I can't go to burning man and avoid psychedelics.

Take a camera, PLEASE.
I would love to go to that man, always been interested in it, but was also kinda scared I would ingest some unknown drug and end up in the structure like a wickerman

You got a lot of time to save up. Just buy the ticket now. Then worry about how to get to the ride.

I don't have a problem with personal responsibility. The only drugs i'd be doing would be the one's I made. I may also get an ecstasy kit or two cause i would love to try that and who knows where that shit comes from. Idk, maybe dance safe does something like that. I know they do at the Boom festival in Portugal, which would be a blast to attend as well. As for the camera, ya, i will take one. But probably not my really good one since that place is like a non stop sand storm sometimes.

you can find shit loads of info, online, abut dust proofing shit, but it still gets into everything and gets everywhere
Oh, and expect to be sacrificing that security deposit on the RV, because it's going to be filthy as shit, and playa dust turns to clay when it's wet, making it practically impossible to clean

I'd really love to go but this is not the best time in life for me.
Will definitely go sometime before I die.
Anyone that's been there have any experiences that go beyond the scope of the documentaries I've seen?
Yes, and take a camera please.
How much did the tickets cost? just curious

I don't have tickets yet. Ultratang7 does though. Not sure how much he paid. If i had to guess i would say 200-250. they aren't cheap. What documentaries have you seen about it? I don't think i have seen any.

Fuck yes Furrowed Brow. That is the mother fucking plan. Burning Man was the best time of my life. It beats my mushrooms trips, and those where mind blowing. I am going every year until I die, even if I have to give up eating food to save the money.
This time I am going to bring a journal. That is key, fellas. Still have like 500 photos to upload from last year.
Burning man is the best and happiest place on earth.

Clips on Youtube from various ones. It just seems they really got something going on up there and the videos don't give you a full picture of it.

Fuck that wishful wanna-be-utopian shit. I am saving my money for trips to Asia and Europe. The real world. 
But IN reality I would go once if I had the extra money, but other trips trump this.

Im sure everyone would love to travel europe and asia, but thats a shit ton of money. Burning Man seems relatively cheap compared to traveling around the world IMO.

Yeah its not cheap, but considering how much you would spend traveling to other countries it wouldnt be as bad.
Does anyone know how much it would be to buy tickets at the entrance?

Though there are elements of it out there, Burning man isn't really inundated with too much "headyness". In fact, what I always liked about the place was the fact that it attracted all types, who's main mission was to get fucking crazy in the desert
In fact, these cats, from Seattle, used to do a Molotov cocktail range, people are still operating the thunder dome, and I think Survival Research Labs still operates there. All very "non-heady" groups

It depends: getting geared up to spend a week in the desert, and actually participate in burning man, costs some change. While the most expensive thing about traveling to most places in Asia would be the airfare(last time I flew to India, back in 2004, the airfare was a little over 100 bucks more than the gate fee for burning man). The rest of the time you could get around comfortably, on ten bucks a day

back in 2004, I think they were 200-250 for advanced purchase, and my round trip ticket, from NY to Delhi, was 350+ tax.
Though the Airline was pretty shady (aerosvits, or something) and we (the three Americans on the flight)had to be locked in this weird little "lobby" while we had a stop over in Uzbekistan. Which was populated by these people that were hand cuffed to the wall, and an Iranian kid who was living in the place for like three months( the lobby, not Uzbekistan)

The ticket I just bought for BM was 340 with taxes and all. That's the highest tier price level that I saw them offer. So it may be the same at the door. Though, id do a bit of research first.
It's not like the playa is housed inside a warehouse, ya know. Why isn't the raw, natural desert as beautiful as a waterfall? That's a rhetorical question, as it can't be answered with any truth. I also hate to see all you fellas judge an experience you have never had. What kind of bullshit is that?!
I mean, to say that 'nothing can top an experience i've had' is really the same kind of logic that the proponents of intelligent design use to discount the fact that science hasn't figured it out yet.

$340 is only like £200. id happily pay that to go burning man, about the same price as a weekend ticket for glastonbury.
how many days does BM go on for? i definatley seeing myself experiencing it in the future if i do a bit of travelling.

It's basically a full week. Starts on monday 8/29 and they burn the man the following saturday. then things wind down from there. The most expensive part of all this is traveling the 1,000 miles to get there (and the motorhome rental).
And $350 from NY to Delhi in 2004?!!?! i meant to comment on that earlier. That's fucking intense. But i guess with the treatment you received it makes sense. That's really fucking cheep though. I've paid more for concert tickets and flights from phoenix to tulsa. where did you get that kind of a ticket hook up Kyuzo?

They were either just starting flights from New York, or the route going from NY to Delhi; I honestly forget which. Everything else was close 500+, generally nearing 600 range. But besides the deal with the "lobby" it was a pretty fun flight. And I never seen people get so fucking smashed while on a plane.
PS Furrowed, you and your mates going to try and set-up with an already established camp, or you guys going to do your own thing?

We are doing our own thing. I don't think it's goign to be a theme camp or anything though. How does it work once we get in through the gate? I mean do they ask about your entourage then 'seat' you somewhere? Or is it like a free for all?

I agree, there's beauty in the desert as much as there is in lakes and oceans and mountains and all. I'm personally a water person, so I would prefer a nice lake or river to the desert, but I wouldn't hate it being there for a week. It's all a matter of preference, and appreciating things for what they are I think.

I also plan on leaving all forms of communication in the rv in a safe or something. The goal is for me not to know what time it is from day one until we leave. I think it'd be pretty intense not to know the time for a week. for someone like me who is always looking at the clock.

Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

I know they release advanced addresses for most of the moderately sized camps and installation, but not sure if this option is open to everyone or general campers

What do you think the age cut off should be? I don't think anyone under like 16ish should go. Anyone under that wouldn't be able to sustain themselves if left alone.

we have 15 year olds who are circumnavigating the globe in sail boats by themselves. I think younger kids than 16 would be ok there. But again, having never been i can't really say. I just wanted to draw that comparison.

there's some extremely wild stuff going on, out in the open, at burning man: like some hardcore bondage play. Really, growing up was confusing enough without seeing some old dodger getting lead around by his prince albert

This "trip" is going to be amazing, I have never been, and have only seen pictures and heard stories to judge it on, so I'm trying to go with a completely open mind, with no expectations.
as far as kids go, I'm planning on taking lotsa L.S.D. and shrooms, I personally dont like to be around children when I'm on those kinds of levels.

At burning man I saw kids that where just 1 there.
They actually have a kid camp zone, and naked people are supposed to avoid going near there if possible, ironically I saw a hell of a lot of naked people walking through there too

Well if you don't want your kids to see naked people burning man is probably not the best vacation choice.

There's still time for some good shit to happen. The ticket is the easy part however, and they are like 300. I'm sooo looking forward to this. I quit my job a couple weeks ago and am moving all my shit to cali this week. So that changes my plans a bit. but it also makes it cheaper to actually get out there. woot!
