Wrybread Live From Burningman 99

The Man was feeling a little under the weather this year, and spent a lot of time on his back. He was absolutely incredible though, and I wish my camera could take night pictures so I could have gotten one of him full of neon in the center of an amazing circle of lights. The light circle was at maybe a 50 yard radius around The Man, and the lights zipped around the circle so fast you wouldn't know they were in pulses unless you stood on The Man's podium and followed their path. Incredible.

During the Burn something went awry and he never got his arms raised above his head, but it was spectacular anyway.

then again...could hurt a little

I saw the Man Burn. They tried to shake Him down,force Him to their will, the will of the collective humanity there on the Playa. He resisted. They pulled harder at the cables; He still resisted, did a little dance for all of us. Finally, He went down into the flames, as we knew He would. But before He went, He spoke of some unfinished business, some unresolved issues. Perhaps it because of how big BM has become, perhaps something more. We shall see next year.
