So the bright sun whispered something in my ear this morning during my constitutional dick waggling at the bourgeoisie in their shiny yellow boats:
It asked me about the many, many festivals going on this summer and it wanted to know how much of my percentage body weight was going to each:
80% Boreal
100% Burning Man
165% Harvest
What does the hoi polloi think of the rest of the offerings? Om? Space Gathering? Bass Coast? Shambala? Lightning in a Bottle? Parallel Universe? BOOM? Rainbow Serpent? Eclipse?
Also, there should be a TA meet-up for balloon fetishists at Harvest this year. I'm thinking day break, sunny-side of the spaceship, listening to Ali Black (ing awesome).
And if you didn't know already:
Paix et amour a tous.
Forever Forward
I'm 100% at Burning Man. I've never checked out Boreal or Harvest, but I've heard great things.

"Though Allin promised for several years before his death that he would commit suicide onstage during one of his concerts, he died June 28, 1993 of an accidental heroin overdose"

Harvest Rules!
Especially when the local Chamber of Commerce comes to check out the pyramid's action on Sunday afternoon.

Yes! Harvest does rule! Why, however, does it rule so much? Is it(?):
1) The fact that every year for the past five years people have been making more to trip us out? Namely Geordi and his Sphinx and last year the owl? Or nitrous circus acts with unassuming white/native girls falling off stage?
2) Or is the the regular stuff you expect, like naked pyramid dancing on Sunday and knowing everyone that's there? Also the vibe (i.e. friendliness) is paramount. Also Ali Black's set on Sunday morning that makes you want to kill and at the same time?
3) Freezing your ass off at night on Friday?
4) The horse?
5) The fact that it is about as home-grown and borderline retarded as you would expect from a Canadian festival in the middle of nowhere (KY slip-and-slide, I am looking at you. I am peering intensely at the hot messes that actually did it)?
6) Or that it is the one time per year you get to see all your Harvest friends from all the years before, fully cognizant of the fact that you could never see these cats outside of this festival?
7) The lasers across the pond just before sunrise when the steam is rising. You know what I mean. Admit it.
8) Your undying urge to make a festival this cool in some other remote place in Canada.
9) Early bird tickets.
We should definitely make a TA meet-up on Sunday morning for this festival. Maybe at the fire near the pyramid? You must wear a post-it note affixed to your lapel that depicts your favorite species of warbler.
And, not to be outdone, the following:
Paix et amour a tous.

One last thing: has anyone been to parallel universe in Brazil? What can I expect?
Love to only your extremities and those people dependent upon them
