Ticket?

2008-08-19T17:02:07Z

I may have convinced myself last minute to head to the Playa. Any chance there's a ticket laying around somewhere close by?...

Recent Maui Transplant Needs Ride to the Playa

2008-08-19T03:50:21Z

Hello Eugene Burners,
I just arrived from Maui and find myself with an American Dream ticket but no wheels to the Playa. I can contribute good vibes, licensed driving, gas money and your favorite home-baked treats. I need a safe, reliable ride to Burning Man. Let me know if you have room in your vehicle.
Thanks,
Helen

Ride Needed from Eugene to Black Rock City

2008-08-12T01:34:11Z

Hey,
My name is Christina (aka Jesus Chris), and I need a ride for me, a backpack, and a box out to the playa. I'm hoping to get there on Monday. I am the co-creator of iUniverse camp, we're at 7:30 and Bonneville. We'll have a big 40 foot interactive mural, shade structure, shower, kitchen, a few events, and vegetarian breakfast and dinner every day. If you're interested in sharing a ride in exchange for camping w/ us, we can definitely work that out. If you've already got plans of your own but have a little extra room and need help w/ gas money, then I'm your lady.
I need to figure it all out soon though, otherwise I'm afraid I'll purchase a plane ticket to Reno, but I'd much rather rideshare. So please give me a call on my cell at (520)664-8077 if your interested, or email me at deftonedinzion@hotmail.com
See you on the playa!
Namaste,
C

Need a ride to burning man! Possibly need a camp to crash at as wel

2008-07-14T23:10:11Z

Hi, I can help with gas and other goodies*wink*. I'm looking for some cool people to get a ride down there with and chill with possibly I'm sort of an on the go person so probably wouldn't bother that much just need a place to store my water / food / bike you know all the essentials. I'm a real fun guy into quantum physics, art(drawing and dancing specifically :)) Hmm, I'm just your average weird Eugene fella. Well holler at me if you got a ride and it sounds like I'm interesting enough we can converse more! I'll be back in Eugene for the 16th - 22nd of this month if you'd like to meet up and chill out for a bit and talk. My friend bailed on me and got me super amped about going and now I don't got a ride but I'm not willing to not go to burning man this year because I got way too excited for it and I refuse to be let down and I know I'll regret not going. I'm also going to Monolith, Emergensee and shambhala(I have no idea why I threw that in there but I did so :P)

Needed: Place to stay Wed night or recommendation for motel in area.

2008-07-09T01:47:49Z

Seattle Burner bound for OCF needs a place for Wednesday evening (July 13) to crash or a recommendation on a motel near Veneta or West Eugene.

Hi, all. I am working on a crew, but cannot camp until Thursday. I will have a car full of gear and looking for a quiet spot to layout a sleeping bag until early Thursday morning. I need to be at the Fair site early Thursday, so I want to be close to the area. I will arrive in Eugene on Wednesday afternoon.

If you could recommend a reasonably good motel in that area, that would be cool too. Very quiet, responsible, friendly, clean and conscious.

Thanks,

~~S~~

1 Rider needed for Black Rock City, Leaving August 23rd

2008-07-06T05:35:13Z

We are looking for 1 able bodied rider to join us in our annual odyssey to the Black Rock Desert for Burning Man. We will be traveling in a very tight 2002 Toyota 4-runner, and will in all liklihood be pulling a small trailer. So there will be plenty of room for your water, fuel, bike, camping gear, etc. We are definitely herb friendly (and friendlier if you bring some too). And also we have lots of great music ranging in everything from Progressive House to Reggae and the Grateful Dead and then on again towards pschedelic trance. At this point the plan will be to stop down in Ashland overnight (we'll get a suite, at no expense to any of us, at the Windmill Suites), and fill up water tanks at Ashland Springs (free good clean water), arriving on the Playa early Monday morning. The plan is to leave Monday after the burn and most likely stay at the Windmill Suites again to shower off the Playa dust and regroup before making the final 3 hour drive back up to Eugene on Tuesday morning. If this sounds good to you please contact us here on Tribe

With members from Frank Zappa, Oingo Boingo, and a sexy stage show straight from the desert sands of Burning Man, this is a show you should not miss.

Favor: give a bike a ride

2008-05-25T19:25:00Z

Hi burners! I know it's early to be asking, but I'm trying to get my bike to the playa. The hard part is that I leave on tour in a week, and I'll be going to Black Rock directly from the East coast. I have the bike, it's ready, I just need some kind soul to step forward and say "I have space for an extra bike when I go." Is that kind soul you?
It would help me so much, and I wouldn't have to walk everywhere with my Fire-dancing stuff while I'm out there. So whadaya say?
Send me a personal message, please.
Be well!

Radical bought reliance?

2008-04-11T21:50:12Z

I'm sure many have seen this by now, but I'm curious your thoughts - pro and con - are on the topic:
http://www.elmonterv.com/burning-man/ca-245.aspx

Cost: $10,999

Yup.. it's real. Sure, it's obscene amounts of cash for me to think of, but can you think of reasonable circumstances where this would be a decent option for someone? perhaps international travelers who are doing big art?

Anyway, just curious about your thoughts. :) --Crizzly

Anyone heading out to this in June? I've never been but I'm thinking about it. It'd be nice to have someone to go with, especially because I don't drive. I could probably even get the gas in exchange for a ride for me and my gear...
What's it like? What should I expext? Suggestions on what I may need (besides the usual I guess)?
Thanks!

Workshop Saturday::::The Life Force Moves:::::

2008-01-19T00:15:01Z

Escape Plans Unlimited is proud to announce their second workshop in the Creative Deconstruction series.

The newest workshop in the series is entitled "The Life Force Moves."

In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to explore your mind and body in greater depth than you may have previously thought possible. Join Jack Wild as he guides you through a series of body movements and expressions, all designed to give you a deeper sense of the life force moving within and around you.

You will learn an abundance of body movements and expressions that you may use for the rest of your life.

Just a few of the benefits of this work are:

-reduction of stress

-greater relaxtion

-deeper awareness of your moods and energy level

-richer experience of the forces at play in your body and mind

-a deeper appreciation of your own body

-much, much more.

Information is everywhere, but true knowledge is information in motion. This workshop will help you learn how to take the information you encounter and turn it into living knowledge.

Creative Deconstruction: The Life Force Moves will be held on:
Saturday January 19 from 1:11-3:33pm with time in the middle for a break and brief discussion at:

Maitreya Ecovillage strawbale house
1641 W. Broadway in Eugene.

RSVP to johnnynativeseed@yahoo.com

Act fast, as space is limited to about 15 people.

Creative Deconstruction is an introductory experimental workshop. For a limited time, it is offered on a donation basis in order to educate people about the work. If you learn something, donate something.

One final note: this work can be physically and mentally strenuous, in a manner similar to hatha yoga. It is understood and expected that you take full responsibility for your own health and wellness. As such, it is recommended that you take any precautions necessary before undertaking this, or any course of strenuous activity. When doing new physical exercises, be gentle and be sure to stop immediately if you experience pain.

Further work in radical undoing, bodyweight (non-machine, non-weights) conditioning, meditation and breath work, and customized Escape Plans can be obtained from Jack at hourly rates. Workshop attendees will receive $10 off for each session scheduled at the time of the workshop.

Next month we will be trying out a larger space, with preference given to those who attend The Life Force Moves.
We look forward to seeing all of you there!

Enjoy....

Howdy burners,

I'm looking to meet other burners in the Emerald City who want to do some good works in our fair city. I'm hoping there are some people on the list who are familiar with the Burners without Borders folks and the great work they have done in New Orleans, San Francisco, Fernley and other places and would like to do something similar here.

There's no prerequisites for starting a group, just a willingness to break some sweat helping out where it's needed. Post here or email me at tlxreed@gmail.com.

new tribe! Burning Bondage

2007-09-10T20:43:27Z

I started a new tribe when I got back this year to help burners who like BDSM and D/s play connect and coordinate for the burn next year. With TOA MIA this year, and confusion about "Camp Arachnid" vs "Arachnia's Web", I thought a tribe would help all of these camps promote events, recruit campers, even coordinate afterparties and mixers, as well as provide a way for any burners to connect, volunteer and share information.

It's open membership and the merely curious are always welcome. If bondage isn't your interest, tip it to a friend who might be interested -- we all have one.

Orgasmateria recruiting for BIG expansion in '08!

2007-09-10T20:42:32Z

The Orgasmateria Pleasure Lab will be scaling up for its fourth year on the playa, in anticipation of a bid for Esplanade frontage in '08.

I'm looking to recruit a core of 10 or so committed Orgasmateers to coordinate the work of perhaps a couple of dozen other campers and volunteers sharing managable responsibilities for workshops, decor/ambiance, ice runs, etc.

Ideally, this core will include about five experienced Dominatrixes who, in addition to cracking the whip in camp management, would participate in workshops for straight girls wanting to experiment with submitting to a Domina, coupled girls who want to spank their boys (or see them spanked), and vanilla girls wanting to learn how to whip their boys into shape.

Though certainly fem-centered, the Orgasmateria is not a FemDom camp, per se. These workshops will compliment our existing slate of Princess Reform School workshops, which help sub-curious ladies and couples introduce D/s play into the bedroom without upsetting the power balance of the overall relationship.

The overall bent of the Orgasmateria is towards pleasure rather than pain -- but pleasure so intense you may have to be tied down to sit still for it. The tone is less intimidating than the more hardcore bondage camps and is geared to provide a nontreatening entry point for kinkurious vanillas. Fittingly, our decor is more pink and sparkly rather than black and spikey -- think Barbie's Dream Dungeon...

In addition to Princess Reform School, other workshops and events offered by Orgasmaterias past include:

Erotic Tickling (partners take turns blinding, blindfolding and tickling each other)
Continuous Female Orgasm (clitoral massage)
Shejaculation (squirting how-to)
Queer Tips for Straight Lips (learn oral sex from the ultimate experts)
Grin and Bare It (public nakedness for the shy)
Naked Gun (high noon naked watergun fight)
Sexcrafts (sextoy-making workshop)

New features we hope to add next year:

Nightly "Kinkurious" mixers
Late-Nite Freeplay
Dawn foot wash/rub
Moring Wake-Up Spankings (paddles-n-coffee!)
Afternoon Bodypainting
The Miss Orgasmerica Pageant
Spank Your Man!
Sumbissive Explorations for Bi-curious Girls
Finding Your Inner Bitch (Domina workshop)
Naked Newbie Scavenger Hunt

If you'd like more info on any of the above, just ask. And if you're intersted in camping with us next year, let me know ASAP.

In addition to a few good Dominas, we're particularly looking to recruit experienced body painters, service-oriented submissives, nudists, people with experience running a bar on-playa, and of course, Skinsationaut Cadets willing to surrender their bodies to science for testing/demonstrating our latest sensual toys and techniques, and expanding the frontiers of the Pleasurescape.

Viva la Orgasmateria!

got ticket, need ride ~ hoop lessons & hoops & other bribes?

2007-08-21T04:09:00Z

Okay, I got a ticket. Working out the camp situation. Now ... I just need a ride! This is a *stretch* for me, as I'm sure it is for everyone. But I'm looking for the cheapest situation possible. I might even be able to send some of my stuff with other people if you can squeeze me in. You can even squeeze me, if you're sitting next to me!

If anyone is into hoop dance, I have some skillz, developed over years of practice. Swear. I could give you private lessons on the playa. I could make you a hoop. I could do both. I could also just give you gas $ -- trying to barter first, though.

Here's my myspace page for hoop referal (if you're into that). I moved here from Detroit, so some of you don't know me. But please contact me off-list if you can help me!

Anyone want a hoop for the playa?

2007-08-14T20:31:09Z

If you need a Burning Man hula hoop (or a more fabulous hoop than the old, scratchy one you've already got ), hit me up here. They're $25 for bright regular designs / $30 if you want a sparkly one. You know you want to hoop out there, in the place with no ceiling, and no walls, and nothing but wide, open space. Trust me, I've been hula hooping in various locations -- from cramped to wide open -- for five years. The playa's one of the best. :)

Put in your orders now so I can squeeze them in before you leave.

need a ticket ~

2007-08-11T09:17:06Z

I know. I"m like the millionth person to say, "OMG! It's the last minute. Where can I find a ticket?"

I'm a Detroit transplant, and part-time hoop dancer. I perform a lot (when I'm not overwhelmed by UO). I really want to get to BM because that's like a defacto hoop conference. I'll be so sad to miss it. I was in Detroit half the summer, performing & dealing w/ family stuff, and things were just a little insane.

So now that I can actually make plans, if you can point me in the direction of anyone you know who needs to sell a ticket, hit me up off-list.

I will come to your camp and give you private hoop lessons. ;)
Let me know...

extra space in truck to the playa

2007-07-31T00:09:53Z

It looks like we will have a 24' Ryder Truck to take out to the playa. It is bigger than we need. We're willing to fill it with other people's stuff, and we'll need some help. We would be happy for financial contributions toward the rental and we'll need a ride for one adult to the playa, probably arriving August 25th (if we get the early arrival pass we've requested).

We're in Corvallis.

March 10: poi hoops & adv. poi workshops at Corestar

2007-03-04T03:17:51Z

Saturday, March 10, from 2-4 p.m., poi wizard Dustin is coming down from Portland to teach us how to do poi ... with hoops! He'll also be teaching an intermediate/advanced poi workshop from 6-8 p.m. Check out Dustin's mad skillz:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=CtPnl5JxTr0

http://youtube.com/watch?v=b2yXhBND1nA

Price is $20 per class, $35 for both. Corestar dojo is located at 439 W. 2nd. Contact Dustin to register: dustin.hubel@gmail.com -- Contact Revolva if you want a set of poi hoops for the poi hoops class ($10) or instructions on how to make your own (26" across).

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS AND DUSTIN'S BIO:

2-4 Spinning with Hoops - The Basics
This workshop focuses on the basics of spinning poi with hoops. Proper ways to grip the hoops, turns, transitions, weaving, and butterfly variations will be covered. Limited amount of practice hoops available. Bring your own hoops (26" across) or contact Revolva over tribe/at jonesing@hotmail.com if you need some hoops.

6-8 Intermediate to Advanced Poi - Spinning with Geometry
This workshop is meant to introduce a system that breaks down and simplifies even the most complicated poi patterns by giving spinners an understanding of planes, timing and direction, antispin, and compound circles. All of these concepts are then brought together using 'focus points', a prototype concept for Dustin's forthcoming instructional video. This will be the siteswap of poi. Also to be covered: Turning techniques, pirouettes, flowers, isolations, and airwraps.

Dustin is new to the Portland area. He has performed on stage at the 2006 International Jugglers Association 'Tricks of Light' show, has been featured on the Ministry of Manipulation website, and garnered quite a bit of attention in the online community through his hoop manipulation videos.

Baxter's hoop dance workshop - Sun. Feb. 25, Corestar

2007-02-18T22:10:57Z

One week from today, hoop master Baxter will be Eugene, teaching a three-hour intensive hoop dance workshop. (See class description below). Baxter is very well known in the world of hoop dance and is prominently featured in the upcoming hoop dance documentary "Hoop: A Revolution of Sorts." The class will be at Corestar dojo from 2-5 p.m., Sunday Feb. 25. Price is suggested $40, with a sliding scale down to $25 for hoopers in need of financial assistance.

This is a really great opportunity if you feel drawn to the hoop. I'll also be hosting a dinner afterward, and all workshop participants are welcome to come eat good food, chat and have a beer with Baxter. Contact me as soon as possible if you'd like to register.

INTRODUCTION TO THE HOOP PATH

This 3-hour intensive will introduce you to the inspiring myths and powerful metaphors of The Hoop Path, a spiritual approach to hoopdance that has slowly built itself out of Jonathan Baxter's years of daily Hoop Practice. Bax's teaching incorporates prayerful guidance and unique storytelling as well as the straightforward breaking down of moves and practice of new techniques. This workshop is for those of us who already feel a connection with Hooping that goes far deeper than pure fitness, or for those hoopers who yearn to deepen and expand their Practice into subtler levels of awareness and grace. Together we will define and explore Hoop Path terms such as: pe*A*ce, Ritmo, One Tree/Two Tree, Samurai, and Point; as well as established techniques such as Rolling, Reversing, Breaks, Vertical and Angle Hooping.

Baxter's Hoop the Movie trailer:

Just moved here from Detroit

2007-01-29T09:53:23Z

Hi Eugene,

I just moved here from Detroit to get my MFA at UO. Actually, I packed up all my stuff, stopped at Burning Man, and then drove straight to Eugene. Very shocking. I only half know a few people in my program. Anything exciting going on? Especially related to dancing/hooping/fire hooping? I'm hoping that Eugene is like Detroit, in that you have to know where you're going to find the interesting things hidden beneath the surface. Without the danger of being mugged/shot, of course. But so far, it seems a little sleepy.

Hit me up if you can lead me to something impressive.

Thanks!

Mutaytor BM performance group Eugene Debut Concert - Thursday Oct 5th

2006-09-26T18:25:06Z

Hello Eugene Burners, this is Matty from The Mutaytor here. We are a performance art and music group that was founded in Black Rock City in 1998, and our show is coming to Eugene for the first time in a few weeks. We wanted to say hello, and reach out to all of the burners in your area to invite you to come and check out our show first hand. We've never played there before, and if you have any suggestions for local promotion, burner DJ/band to open up for us, or good newspaper/radio/e-lists to announce our show...we'd love to have your feedback.

Here's a bit more info from us about our show, and my contact info is below if you have any questions or ideas!

The Mutaytor Eugene Debut- Thursday Oct 5th at Wow Hall

The Mutaytor plans to bring their multi-media ensemble across the country this fall and introduce their critically acclaimed show to audiences coast to coast. The Los Angeles based troupe features over 50 drums onstage and elaborate visual backdrops as well as fire spinners, Burlesque style dancers, anime characters, and hoop artists. Their unbelievably unique stage show is dazzling audiences across the west coast and beyond. With influences ranging from Blue Man Group & Crystal Method to P-Funk and Cirque De Soleil, The Mutaytor is poised to introduce their show to the masses.

Throughout the past year, The Mutaytor has garnered an impressive amount of press, accolades, and TV placements. They have been featured in The LA Times & BPM Magazine and received the 2005 LA Music Award for Independent Live Performance. The infectious grooves of "Give A Little Mo" and "On Fire Like This" can be heard in recent TV hits including Fox's 'House' and NBC's "Hawaii".

2006 has seen many amazing and unique opportunities come to fruition for The Mutaytor including appearances at corporate & sporting events as well as theatres, gaming conferences, and festivals. On the heels of appearances at the previous two Dem-X Awards, Billboard Magazine has again tapped The Mutaytor to be part of this year’s MECCA conference on April 4 in conjunction with CTIA. MECCA is one of the leading mobile content consortiums in the country and draws from all spectrums of the industry.

The Mutaytor continues to break new ground with their debut appearances in New York City this past April. The three-day run will kick off with an appearance at The Jammy Awards at the famed Theatre at Madison Square Garden on April 20. The following day, The Mutaytor will collaborate with Grateful Dead Drummer Mickey Hart during the ribbon cutting for The Green Apple Music Festival at The Grand Central Station Terminal.

Other highlighted events this summer include appearances at Paramount Studios, Wakarusa Music Festival, 10K Lakes Music Fest, Download Festival, and Massive Movies & Music in Snowmass, CO.

Don’t Miss The Futuristic Vaudeville Circus known as The Mutaytor coming to Wow Hall in Eugene on Thursday October 5th. Advance tickets are $12.00 and the venue website is www.wowhall.org

Thank You!

playa directions from Eugene

2006-08-23T06:19:17Z

Howdy all,

Just wondering how people are getting the playa from Eugene. This will be my first time heading to the playa from here.
I googled the directions, which suggest going down Hwy 58 through Oakridge, then 99 to Klamath Falls, 39 to 139 and Alturas, next stop Gerlach.

Seems to me like that's the scenic route. I need water in Alturas, hopefully some filtered stuff instead of chlorinated tap water, but wet is preferable to dry.

Any tips on route appreciated. I think some folks boom down I5, then cut over. I see some spots to do that at Hwy 140 to Klamath Falls, or 89 at Mt. Shasta.

I'm driving a '78 VW bus, so flat and gentle is preferable to steep and scenic if you catch my drift. It will get me there, but would prefer to take the route that is easiest on the brakes.

TIA.

ride for my trike?

2006-08-22T04:34:43Z

Hello -

I've come to realize me, my wife, her bike and my tricycle are not all going to fit inside my car with all our stuff... If someone has got a big truck-y kind of thing with some extra room, I will gladly throw you some $$ (and/or some psychedelic type art if your into that kind of' stuff ) to fit my trike in there.

We are planning on leaving on Friday and getting there on Saturday afternoon -

thanks much!

Your ideosynchratic ride to Burning Man?

2006-08-18T07:31:05Z

Catch a ride with me to Burning Man?
Please note parameters:
I am likely leaving Eugene, Oregon on Thursday August 24th.
(that's before the Burn opens don't'cha know)
And arriving at Black Rock City the following day, having stayed over at some tasty hotsprings.
I will possibly/likely return to Eugene over one or two days (again, via springs), having left BRC the monday or tuesday of Sept 4th or 5th.
I am hauling parts to several art projects in an old pick-up so I am seeking one rider of fairly minimal baggage.
This person will also have to be able to enter the city earlier than official public access - a BLM heavily scutinized issue this year - or take their chances to be held up at the gate.
I love to talk but I also love a peaceful silence. I don't smoke cigs, or hold other offensive behaviors.
I'm not expecting anything from anyone who would join me, but would strongly encourage assist with fuel dues to the oil companies.
Age and gender inconsequencial.
Worse part: no music system - except possibly an evil boom box that has already injured one passenger.
One way / half of the roundtrip would be jake with me too.
Contact me thru tribe.net - I check most days.
My motive is gaining some company, and assist with both fuel, and perhaps with magical intent?
Inquire within.

Ride to Playa for you or your gear...

2006-07-31T18:20:46Z

Hello, Eugene!

The Dead Letter Truck will be passing through Eugene on Friday afternoon, 8-25. We'll stop at Alvord Hot Springs that night and be on playa Saturday afternoon.

Need a ride? Need to send some gear? We ask $35 for a bicycle, and we compare everything to that - for example, two people's water = 1 bicycle. Big Art? We can handle that! Help us send our mutant vehicle to playa by sending your gear.

For a person, we ask $200 for

a) you
b) your gear
c) your water
d) your bicycle
e) your art

to playa and back. One way rides a possibility.

email deadletter@speakeasy.net or call 206-383-7306

Hey everyone! I have been thinking about burning for about two years now, but I think that I am finally ready this summer! Going to get my ticket on friday and start looking for a community or something to ride down with! I am not sure if I need a community to go there with or what... I know my friend went last year and served coffee and granola... I would love to be part of something epic and artsy!
