my point is that a BM ticket isn't really much more expensive than one for a large trance festival.

furthermore, i think bickering over the ticket prices is silly since, in my experience at least, the cost of the ticket was negligible compared to the cost of actually transporting oneself to the playa and buying all the necessities and niceties one needs for a week in the desert.

or the cost of the speeding ticket (& other) if you are unlucky (or stupid) enough to get caught in there dukes of hazard style trap on the way or if you get ticketed for smoking out or pissing in the wrong spot there.
dam I am still bitter about that years after...
very expensive but at least I did not wind up in jail like others I know
be warned!

I had more I wanted to say, but I ran out of alliteration fuel.

after putting on the PsyCircle stage last year, Greenman and I are combined in debt about $2500. This includes the tickets, the gas to get there, the 50 gallons of gas for the generator, the generator itself, carports, tables, food and water, the cost of the loaner van, cleanup supplies for the camp, bikes, etc etc etc.

I got my ticket for $245 last year from a friend about 2 weeks before the event, she changed her mind last minute and needed the cash so I got very lucky as they were $300 on the website when I made my choice to go.

There are always people on tribe and craig's list selling extra tickets. In fact, one of the reasons 20,000 tickets were sold in 24 hours at that price is because people buy a shitload of them like sports scalpers.

Then magically 2 weeks before the event, the burning man tribes start posting "extra tickets for sale at $250", then you get the ticket, and its stamped as $180 from the first round.

It's a scam to say the least, but its still cheaper at the last minute rather than the $350 at the door.

Since I'm doing boom this year, the price will be about the same to get to portugal as my share from BM last year. There's no feasible way I can do both so I will not attend the burn this year.

Not sure if PsyCircle will be out there as a stage or theme camp, but more than likely not mainly due to costs.           We are all family. We put the fun in disfunctional.

Yeah fuckers are everywhere ..... I sold my ticks to Eclypz 2 years ago for the same amount of $$$ I paid originally (and that's how it's supposed to be done).

same here bro, in 2002 I had a ticket and was ready to go, but my office manager that was pregnant through the summer, had her baby 3 days before I was supposed to leave for the playa. Thus, my boss fucking cancelled my trip for me so I could do her fuckin work too. But, I sold my ticket to a close friend for the same price I bought it for. Oh well, some people make a good chunk of change off these tickets when in fact they have no intention of going at all.           We are all family. We put the fun in disfunctional.
