Some of you may know about the huge festival of art, music and mind altering oblivian that happens in the northern Nevada high desert every summer. If you have not heard, I'd like to give you the skinny. 40,000 folks from all corners of the earth come together for an amazing six day fest that includes high art, theme camps and a 80 foot man that burns at the climax of the event. Think Woodstock without the mud, rain, Jefferson Airplane, bad brown acid and almost 40 years in the future. No really, it's nothing like the hippie era of Woodstock. It's RV's, bikes, themed vehicles, super hot days and cold nights, sand storms and an incredible celebration of music, sharing and life!! I have yet to attend but have several friends that go every year and they have nothing but great things to say about the gathering of the tribes. This year's theme is Hope and Fear: The Future. There is plenty of info on the web about this get together but start at the source. "You're here to celebrate. On Saturday night, we'll burn the Man. As the procession starts, the circle forms, and the man ignites, you experience something personal, something new to yourself, something you've never felt before. It's an epiphany, it's primal, it's newborn. And it's completely individual." Click here.
