So it has come to pass that a few of us at the Garnish Music Production School will be going on a little summer holiday; and when we say little, we mean the BURNING MAN festival! That\u2019s right folks, it\u2019s almost time for us to lose our virginity and make the pilgrimage into the desert to spend seven days with a fantastic array of naked hippies, flower power freaks and sparkle ponies.<\/p>\n
I think it\u2019s fair to say that we weren\u2019t fully prepared for the amount of planning that is required to survive seven days in the desert. I\u2019ve spent less time organising 8-month trips around the world than I have over this week of madness. As \u2018virgins\u2019 it\u2019s amazing the size of the inventory that\u2019s required just to survive.<\/p>\n
To get around the playa, bicycles are an absolute must. This means not only purchasing a bike and a bike rack, but also hauling it all the way from Los Angeles to San Francisco to attach them to the RV. We then need to drive from San Francisco to Reno to collect what we need at Burning\u00a0Man. These will include such staples as –<\/p>\n
Thankfully we decided against camping, but this brainwave hasn\u2019t worked out quite as we expected. Some \u2018veterans\u2019 say that you don\u2019t experience \u2018The Burn\u2019 properly unless you camp, but that\u2019s their opinion and they can keep it! We are virgins and will be in a big RV with a cooker, shower and toilet. Sounds great right? Unfortunately it gets so hot in the desert that you can\u2019t use your own toilet, as it will stink the whole cabin out within 24 hours. Nice. We can\u2019t even pee or use the shower, as we will require the water to survive. I repeat; SURVIVE!<\/p>\n
