Regional Burns vs. Music Festivals
    #14562625 - 06/04/11 11:31 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

So last year I tried my first burn, Transformus, and was pretty underwhelmed (original post here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/12916902#12916902 )

another post I made
Quote:

I mean, I get it. Y'all are polyamorous BDSM freaks who like to drink a lot. I'm not really into booze and nobody wanted to hook me up because they're too paranoid that I was a narc. I bet if I had a vagina people would have given me all kinds of shit...

Plus everyone's like "oh we're so fucking inclusive" but really it's all white people, and the terrain would have prohibited anybody who might have been in a wheelchair from actually participating in the event.

I was really excited to experience an event oriented towards participation and gifting, but in reality people weren't that generous and all the theme camps were pretty fucking lame. I actually had a lady snatch a piece of bacon off of my fucking plate because she thought that 3 pieces was too much for me to take at the community kitchen.
:ifyoucanawe: srsly.




I've met a few burners in my area over the past year and they generally seem like cool people, maybe I'm just not going to the right parties...

but honestly, I like the Festy vibe way better. Just a bunch of regular kids who just like to get down and party. No pretensions about being artistic or inclusive or "radical", just a fucking PARTY!

I'm going to Electric Forest this month and am SUPER stoked to just be around a bunch of Festy Kids who chew on all their vowels and use silly slang words for everything. Even if there are a lot of bros...

It's weird that there should be such a sharp distinction between burners and festy kids, and maybe i'm just making it up, but they really do seem like two totally different subcultures.

Anyone else wanna back me up on this?
