You have to laugh … I remember Glastonbury, up to my knees in mud - it’s all part of the fun. Having said that, it’s unlikely turn into a survival situation in a field in Somerset, so not really that comparable …

What is burning Man? I know it’s a festival of some sorts that’s done in a desert, but that’s about all I know.
What happens there?
Rich people travel 1000+ kilometres to gather around and pretend to be not rich and just like common folks! This is my understanding as someone who isn’t american.
Also drugs. Lots of drugs.
Also sex. dusty, dusty sex
My mother in law took us a few times and the most we did was pot. Also I was unemployed both times as I was laid off and got a cheap ticket. The original burners still go and they’re definitely not rich.
Burning Man was an amazing event when I stumbled across it on the internet in the late 90’s. I must have been 14 or 15, it used to be a real “go experience, experiment and find yourself” setting. It’s since gone the way of SXSW. It totally goes against what it was intended for.
Burning Man is a festival celebrating creative expression. No one there is pretending to not be rich
Yeah a lot of them stopped pretending.
Lol this thread is so weird. I have several friends who attend. Exactly zero of them I would consider “rich.” Artsy hippie types, sure, but lmao not rich.
They read an article about some tech guy enjoying burning Man, once. Just kinda the way the site works
idk people here think being rich means you need to own a yatch…
Nah people here think being part of the lower-middle class makes you rich.
Watch Malcolm In The Middle, season 7 episode 1 “Burning Man”. It’ll give you a fair approximation.
Love that episode, my personal highlight, cracks me up every time.
I think they set somebody on fire every year.
