You have to laugh … I remember Glastonbury, up to my knees in mud - it’s all part of the fun. Having said that, it’s unlikely turn into a survival situation in a field in Somerset, so not really that comparable …

      This looks like a pithy truism but it really just sounds idiotic. You ever been to, like, a trade show?

      Burning man is far from perfect but it’s a step in the right direction.

          Yes absolutely, because it’s radically inclusive so anyone can come. I’m also nor a fan of the rich paying people to set up their camp, flying in for two days, and dumping tons of trash on the road back to Reno… But everything good about the festival is still there also.

        You really start to wonder if the Lemmy Communists who make this comment in every thread realize that they sound like children.
