Maybe he was doing a performance art piece about the decline of the event itself. And all these people following one man's vision.
All seems a little Jones Town to me. "Drink the Koolade"

Decline as in decline of western civilization.
Nothing to do with the increasing number of frat boys who trade in their striped shirts for fur vests for one week.

If you have never taken part in it that event, you don't have any justification for judging it or commenting about it. As you have no idea/clue as to what you are speaking of.

exactly. sure, may be a party pooper... but i like a little chaos thrown into situations that become stagnant and when people become complacent.

First arson, now this. Man hangs himself. His friends thought we was doing some type of art project. He was dead for a couple of hours. Wow
