So my friend Irene has convinced me to go up to Burning Man with her for the final weekend (i.e. we're leaving after work on Friday, as she has no vacation time available

You should check to make sure this is actually a feasible plan. They usually close the gates down Thursday at midnight and won't let anyone in again until after the burn.
However, if you do manage to make it up (which would be awesome), I don't where we're going to be camped, but we'll have a sign up on the bulletin board at Center Camp and will also be registered in the computer system if they have it up this year. Please feel free to come by and abuse our shade structure. :D
Irene claims they close the gates Friday night, but I'll double-check. I'm pretty much just along for the ride, so I didn't question what she said. But thanks for the tip- it would be silly to drive up there and not be able to get in (and I was a bit surprised they'd let people in that late when she told me).
You cannot *buy* tickets at the gate after Thursday night.
You can *pick up* tickets at Will Call as late as Saturday at noon. Which I guess means that's the latest time you can arrive.
This does make sense, because it allows people who can't take any vacation days around the event (like the friend I'm going with) to attend. But I'm glad you mentioned it- it's one of those things that's such a fundamental assumption you can easily forget about verifying it :-P
Oh, cool. I'm glad it's going to work for you. Also, I know someone who might be selling a ticket if you don't have one yet, so let me know if you're interested.
I think we're going to try to camp around 4:30, about 5 rings out from the Esplanade, but that may change once we actually get there. Regardless, we'll have a sign up at Center Camp.
