will miss the burn this year. it’s always been a place of inspiration for me. it’s spontaneous and magical. when I first went 14 years ago I wasn’t booked by any camps. I just pulled up to friends art cars .. random as fuck laptop out covered in dust .. playing dance at sunrise to anyone that rode by me.. eventually a crowd would form out of curiosity . or reggae at sunset . it was a world that the burners just made up everything can be improvised. one of the most bizarre sets was me skrillex and tale of us in (maybe 2014?) in a giant dust storm while the man burned . the more I went the more I played . the bigger the crowds the more the chaos and animosity of an outsider like me coming to the playa unhinged . once I even photoshopped popeyes on a jet and said they sponsored my trip . (burning man politicians asked me to delete that and patrons called for me to be banned- I guess sarcasm is lost after too much ketamine from the higher ups) but it doesn’t matter - u can hear whispers that’s “it’s not like it used be” from the old timers and the plug and play veterans on holiday from their hedge funds . the event is what you make of it .. there is nothing like it in the world . no matter who u are - you create a world that feels like walking thru outer space . maybe u see your first public sex in the sand! you are gonna fall in love with an angel at center camp doing acro yoga or rethink your shitty life or marriage. maybe you cry for an hour at the temple remembering your mother or just seeing a picture of someone’s sister or dog that just spontaneously gives your grief .. that’s the most powerful drug I have ever done at the burn.. or learn that you would rather be a fire dancer or sword swallower (not like the ones at the orgy dome) instead of a lawyer . maybe you end up on fox news talking about the apocalypse after the rainstorm 2023. or maybe your just gay and you figured that out during carl cox disco set. anyway fuck it . everyone should go once but I think my time is up. ❤️ glad to be part of the lore and carry on faithful burners . ?
