Burning Man 2009: Day 4 - Start the Party
Thursday brought a sharp increase in temperature across the playa, and most of the day was spent in camp. It did, however, give me an opportunity to get to know some of my camp mates better. One person stands out to me more than the others. His name was Larry and he was an underground comic artist from the 60’s. I had the chance to sit and talk with him about his life, his comics, his artistic and creative drive, and his view of the world. I would hope that burning man is a place where everyone gets the chance to meet and converse with interesting people.
My friend Steve had a late arrival, and I had the distinct pleasure to take him out to the center of the playa and watch, as his head got blown as much as mine did a few days before. In the process of tripping around the city, I ran into some other friends, which was kind of a relief, since I knew that they were out here somewhere.
Despite the heat, I was able to get my groove on early at Pink Mammoth.
That night, our camp took up the party torch with full enthusiasm, as we headed out to see what sort of trouble we could get into.
Highlights included the Infected Mushroom show:

Rabbit in the Moon over at the Root Society were also rocking it pretty hard:

and a really astounding set out at the hookahdome:

I did not last until the sunrise…but a great time was had by all.
