Spurning Man 1
On Saturday, August 30, a number of long time Burning Man friends not making the journey to the playa this year are getting together to rock out at Ocean Beach in celebration of the event that has brought so many of us together. If you’re here in SF with us, we want to be here with YOU.
A miniature man built out of recycled wood will burn at Ocean Beach at 10pm, probably the same time the Man burns in BRC. We’ll have a fire before and after that with house and breaks fanning the flames. This is not the same as Balsa man at Ocean beach, see other posts for that event.
You’ve got the fur, you’ve got the el wire, and we’ve got the beats – so let’s get down! DJs TBD!! but look for friends from Cowboys, House of Lotus, and more….
Sure, you’ll miss the 8 hour drive, the dust, the glory of the Circus Circus buffet on the way home and the opportunity for creative explanations to your boss regarding that family reunion you have every year…
Spurning Man! Burning away our spurn…
Who: Friends, family, children, dogs, police, bicycles, but NO BOTTLES!!
When: Saturday, August 30 – 8PMish until ???
Where: Ocean Beach – We will try to be at one of the fire pits near stairways 15 & 16 near the parking lots off of the Great Highway north of Lincoln Way. Parking in the ocean beach lots is restricted after 10pm. If you plan to stay later, please park on side streets. Be aware that Ocean Beach is FEDERAL LAND. Celebrations & late night gatherings are legal, but please keep in mind the watching eyes everywhere except for facing the ocean!
Bring: Thanks! As well as costumes that substitute as warm clothes, wood, blankets, NO BOTTLES!! and discrete beverage containers (all in that order!!) If you have a creation out of wood you would like to burn, bring it on! Please be sure it is nail free (we suggest gorilla glue)
Let me know if you are interested in playing, building man, removing nails, squatting at burn barrel, carpooling, etc.
xx Andrea

Awesome that your throwing an event too! Balsa Man is running earlier in the night (7:45p start; Burn at 8:30ish; end prob shortly thereafter) so you'll probably see our gang heading your way after our burn is over. Also, if any of you want to rockstar two parties in the same night, you should stop by Balsa Man first! href="http://catcubed.com/2008/08/25/balsa-man/
