    Anyone look at the weather forecast before all this madness? Crazy to me that people still showed up knowing how shitty the weather was gonna be and expected anything different.

    I was there. Despite the mud it was one of the best shows ever. Rollins Band, Metallica, Fems, Live, NiN, Blind Melon, Primus, Candlebox, Dylan, Peter Garbriel, Porno for Pyros, Santana, Chili Peppers, Green Day are just some of the bands I saw. lol

    A lot of climatologists have talked about this: https://x.com/weather_west/status/1698176311426973861?s=46&t=ly-CeIrBgKkHTcsERlhWSQ

    It’s in the middle of a vast desert that rarely sees rain at any particular location, let alone that specific location. And forecasters don’t bother accurate forecasting in that region because, well, there’s nothing there.

    All I can say is....
    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
    Fools. I lived in that high desert for 10 years. You never know what you're going to get. -25 to 120 degrees, no rain to flash floods and snow from zero inches to 4 feet over night.
    Good luck and godspeed to those who are stranded and did not prepare properly.

    Rollins Band? This immediately voids all of the "real' off road douche bros hating on this festival. Don't mess with Mr. Henry Rollins.

    I've also been to Tina turner, Kool and the gang, the temptations and new edition.
    Edit... also Duran Duran, Shelia e, personally I have lost count on how many bands concerts I have been to.
    Beach Boys to ice T to Metallica and rolling stones.
    The only one I regret missing was Tom petty

    Oh, forgot. The most bestest concert was Taylor Swift. Total Swifty for life.

    These are trying times, my mom's internet might give out at any time and force me to the surface where people are miserable all the time.

    This thread looks a lot like that place if we’re being honest.

    These people are literally getting away from their day to day in RV's and living in tents for a couple days to get away and and reset. You must have some serious disconnect to not realize that. Who is the judgmental elite one now?

    I’m suggesting that the grumpy louts in this thread that are putting people down for going to burning man are the miserable ones. I think we’re on the same side.

    Too many people and too much noise. I didn't care too much for that when I was in my 20s.

    Did you see the idiots blocking the road, I mean protesting on the way in? Those people are the worst. Get out of the road, the road is for traffic it's not the place to air your grievances.
