What is it that you really like about music fests/gatherings/burning man, etc?

Just got back from a pretty nice music fest. It was pretty low key and chill and stuff. Had lots of good conversation with cool people and stuff.
One thing I've been thinking about is people saying how they wish it was just always a festival and they never had to go back to the real.
I remember feeling that way after the first couple fests I went to. Anymore though, I think I really enjoy the contrast between my different lives. Someone was talking about a perma burn site or something where it would just be burning man pretty much all the time. I guess that's cool and all, but doesn't it actually kinda defeat the purpose in some ways? Isn't BM and fests more of a chance to FINALLY let your freak flag fly? Doesn't your freak flag become more trivial and boring when you just fly it all the time?
I dunno, just some shit I was thinking about.

Yeah I've been to lots of fests and have pondered this while at them as well as many other places

I know- sometimes I make a conscious effort to bring that positive shiny energy back into the real with me. I guess I didn't leave with as much of it this time for whatever reason.

lol you dont have to be on drugs to be happy
all you have to do is be around people who love and accept you and share laughs together

Besides, most of those hard workin ass holes who contribute to many of the comfortabilities of modern life are actually on drugs. Just different ones.

Yeah but how would one really go about isolating oneself to the extent of ONLY being round people who love and accept them? Seems like a very isolated and sheltered existence to me.

I like the chill crowd that seem to be drawn to these events. I also enjoy the art and music that is usually around. Really sets a good atmosphere.

I guess what I was getting at was that instead of isolating ourselves among "loving', "enlightened" or "aware" individuals or whatever term you choose is kinda a selfish and isolating way of going about it. I think instead of isolating ourselves among those who agree with us, we instead should try to bring this love, enlightenment, and awareness and bring it back into the real with us. Try to approach everyone with the same openness that you would at a festival. That doesn't mean using festie slang and talking about drugs with them, it just means being real and open with them.
