Burning Man 2000: What a Good Time THAT Was!
2000-07-30 21:56:00
Well, it's only been a few months since the event, but already some of the photos from Burning Man 2000 are starting to appear on the World Wide Web. Some of the best coverage so far is from PlayaChicken.com!
So, usually Pigdog Journal gives you great coverage of Burning Man and all the weird shit that happens there. We are, as they say, excellent journalists and we cover the breaking news of the Bad People community in record time.
However, we had SUCH a good time at the event this spring, we really haven't been able to snap out of it and write up the requisite reports. It was such a different atmosphere, such a strange topsy-turvy change, that we had a really uncannily EXCELLENT time. It has left our reporting skills severely damaged, though.
Luckily, the folks at PlayaChicken.com have done a real nice photo album with great pictures from this year's event. You should check it out. I'm not sure, but I think that's El Snatcher waiting in line for the porta-terlets on page 5!
