Austin is ON FIRE
1999-06-09 13:36:43
OK, so, if you live in Austin, and you missed Burning Flipside, you SUCK.
Some crazy Burning Man freaks in Austin set up their own REGIONAL BURNING MAN that ran over June 4-6. It was apparently HIGHLY COOL and if you had an ounce of coolness you would have been there, too.
Don't worry, though. There'll be more!
Personally, I think this is the future of the Burning Man phenomenon -- a de-emphasis of the One Big Festival, and a branching out to tons of smaller (<1000 people) ones that run under the radar. Big explosions! Guns! Fire! Naked CHYX! This is what it's all about!
