Burning Man Festival

Anyone who hasn’t clicked through the 4or 5 Slate pieces in the OP should do so, you’ll learn a whole new vocabulary such as “MOOP” and “No Cccock Shirting Allowed”.

Quite the contrast with the flourescent nylon wasteland of tens of thousands of abandoned tents at Glastonbury.

The Moroccan band we were assisting wanted to go foraging.

A bit undignified after they opened the festival.

But we cld have lived with that. Not with the excess baggage charge for bags already laden down with new wellies and ponchos.

Embarassing to put it mildly.

What do they do with the abandoned tents ? Perhaps there's a whole new life for them out there somewhere ?

A laziness justifying myth prevails that they wing their way to Sudan
In reality, crusties descend on the site to forage once the fence is down.
It's Mad Max meets JG Ballard in Grateful Dead kaliedoscopic colour.
Then the rest are dumped.
Peace and love. Man.
