Did the Gypsy Queen crew make it?
From CBS News:
“Rites of Passage” is the theme for this year’s sold-out Burning Man festival, which began Monday in the Nevada desert.This is the 25th anniversary of Burning Man, a celebration of art, invention and independence. And for the first time, the event, which continues through Saturday, has been sold out. Attendance is limited to 50,000 people a day.In the Black Rock Desert, about 100 miles north of Reno, participants create Black Rock City, a temporary metropolis dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. They depart one week later, having left no trace whatsoever.

RT28803 Aging hipsters is never a good thing to watch. Asheville Aging Hipster capital of the world.
If you are over 30 years old……well, your just too old and not cool enough for Burning Man. It's kinda sad to see these 40 and 50 something's still trying to hang on at events like Burning Man, SXSW and Bonaroo!! Then again, Asheville is full of people like that year round!!!
I don't know any one from Asheville that is attending. I will tell you that having recently moved to California, burning man is like a religion here. They call the people that go every year "burners". Seems like a huge West Coast event.
I think Greg Lucas (from Creative Allies) is there….
Greg Lucas and Taliaferro Pollock are there.
Greg Lucas goes every year, he's there!
