[quote]Burning Man, the annual counterculture event in the desert of northern Nevada, has been closed on opening day amid rare heavy rains.

Organisers said the gate to the temporary desert city would be closed until at least midday on Tuesday as the Black Rock desert playa turned to mud. [/quote]

[quote]Hundreds of people gathered outside a shop on Monday to buy camping permits, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.

"We're going to make the best of the situation," Charlie Lucas, of Portland, Oregon, told the newspaper.

Last year, a record 68,000 people attended the event, which ends with the burning of a four-storey effigy.[/quote]

Those first few days are really going to be nice. No dust and it's going to be a bit cooler but damn it sucks if you brought a bike.

This song is a fucking mental virus that has stuck with me for months now, and whenever Burning Man is mentioned, all I can think of is this.

I live like 100 miles away from the actually site. Trust me, those Burners always fill up the Walmarts.
