Burning man in three days
My wife and I threw a party last Saturday to celebrate our birthday. Its always a wonderful experience to see people you are close to who have never met get along well and become friends themselves.
Anyway, the next morning I realized Burning Man started in one week and I was more excited then I've been in years.
I leave for Burning Man in two days. I've been obsessed with preparations and fighting a cold. Worried about the new camp I'll be staying with (Lustre Village). Mostly though, I've been having fun being focused outside of my normal work/play/relax pattern and doing something that is pushing my comfort zone. This year promises to be completely different then last for me, and I love that. What does this have to do with music? Well Burning Man is about community and art, and music is art and great music builds communities, well.... there is a pretty cool article about the music at burning man here:http://www.opulenttemple.org/archives/000139.php The build of Black Rock City is chronicled here with some amazing photographs:
