Need a Ride from LA to BRC on Aug. 23?

Alicia (Aylish) — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 22:45:49 GMT

I am arriving early to participate in on-Playa training. If you have permission to get in the gate early, I have room for one passenger in a cargo van leaving from the LAX area early on Saturday, 8/23. I'm a drama-free road trip partner. If you're the same and can split gas costs, let me know if you'd like to hook up for a ride.

Need ride from Reno!

Puckmonster — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 17:09:29 GMT

I'm not sure this is the tribe for this subject but I'm trying everything!
Myself and two friends need a ride from the Reno airport to the Burn. We will need to stop for food and water provisions. On the return trip, only two of us will need a ride to the airport. We will gladly help pay for gas. We'll be camped in Gigsville.

Ride Wanted: Wed Aug 29 from Reno airport to BRC

PrplT — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 08:58:35 GMT

My plane gets in at 2:30pm, so I'll be ready to go by 3pm. I won't need to stop for supplies, but am flexible if you need to stop for them. I will help pay for gas. Am willing to share driving duties too. Only need the ride one way - to the burn. Please shoot an email my way if this sounds workable for you: prpLtnLa@netzero.com

Thanks so much!

Road Trip from California to Kansas....

Crash — Thu, 12 Apr 2007 04:24:34 GMT

*Calling all travel agents!*

I will be leaving tomorrow night from Sacramento California on a journey to Healy Kansas to attend the funeral service for my Grandpa. I will be traveling with by better half and fellow burner J and my wacky dad (his wackiness is offset by me and J's sparkling personality). We will be going through Salt Lake City, Cheyanne, and Denver onto Healy. We are planning on taking shifts and driving straight through but I thought it might be a good idea to have a backup plan just in case we get too sleepy. We will have our own sleeping gear and will be fed before we come, just need a potential place to rest if needed and if available. Please message me if you are up for the company and are on the freeway route.

Thanks friends!

Sane place to sleep

sparktrue — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 16:44:16 GMT

I need to get out of my house immediately.
Turns out the house I have been renting is mold infested.
That's why I haven't been able to breathe.
I'm looking for a room to rent or stay in right now while I search for a
new apt. or house to rent.
Finding a new place for May 1 or June 1 will be a chore on
top of the headache of my home making me sick...
So really I need to find a place to stay or rent that is a good deal
or I will have to pay a bunch to move into a full service hotel / apt,
which will cost even more on top of the move.

If you know of a place here in LA for me and my sweet BLUE (12 year old dog,
see my photo gallery for pictures) where we can stay,
please let me know asap.

I truly need a simple sane place to sleep and function while I handle
the move. If you have an option, can inquire about an option or point
me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for any consideration.
Sincerely,
revvRob

New York April 14th Weekend - My Birthday!

uzel — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 14:39:22 GMT

Hey all New York Burners,

I am in need of a place to crash in New York the weekend of April 14th. That day is not only my birthday, but also an event I'm going to at the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors to help setup. I MUST find a place to stay. Someone is willing to pay my airfare from Chicago, but I have to find a place to stay to be able to go! COSM is roughly 27th Street and 10th Ave in West Manhattan. Please message me ASAP if you have a floor or bed I can crash on. I only need a 6' by 3' place to rest my weary danced out body from 5am'ish 'til Noon'ish.

Also, the person who gives me shelter for that night is invited to the event (details later).

Blessings,
Ora Uzel

Ren Faire, 3 weeks before Burn, in Utah

Bevan — Sun, 04 Mar 2007 04:04:38 GMT

Aug. 13th to the 18th
http://web.mac.com/ibevan/iWeb/Site/Home.html

Hear is a quote from the sight.

"Merging the class and elegance of a Renaissance Faire with
the freshness of a Fairy Festival and the chaos of a Burning Man event, into one..."

“I realize the word ‘change’ is terrifying to the old school faire folk, but this production company is going to let the market decide what direction the faire goes in.
If the consumer wants a mob of cheerleaders that appear to be off the set of a “Road Warrior” movie, running through the faire dancing up a storm, creating the illusion that a mob of patrons have taken over the faire. Followed by a similarly attired marching band playing a very hip march with a back beat that you can’t help but want to swing to... then that’s what we’ll give them..!”

Ride to the playa from Reno

randomcola — Mon, 03 Jul 2006 15:49:48 GMT

Ahoy mates'

I'm heading out to the playa early this year because I'm workin with DPW
I land in Reno on the 13th and could really use a ride up to the playa.
I can help out with gas, and supply lots of love and maybe even help out
with water and food?

Anyway, if anyone else is headed out early let me know!

Love,

Irish Traveller looking for resting spot in San Fran

aimee2007 — Thu, 06 Jul 2006 21:44:03 GMT

This is from Athena

My friend the Leprecaun from Ireland is continuing his trip from LA to SF and needs a place to stay up there. He does not need a tour guide, but a couch or floor to rest his head on. He is with Atom and I right now and a great house guest. He will be arriving in SF on Monday July 10th and is hoping to catch the fire arts festival before going to either Vegas or NY. His name is John McGovern and lots of you met him at Sultans and then Chris'.
Let me know if someone in SF has room. I'm also trying to convince him to go to Burningman before heading back to his new job in Ireland . . . being an accountant.

If anyone has any leads, send me a message and I'll pass it along.

THanks!

buses available for Bruners, revolutionary buses fighting Bush's evil plan

patrick — Sat, 20 May 2006 15:16:30 GMT

I'm a travellin' fool, mostly to the third world. Lotsa time in Central America, the Caribbean, and SE Asia.
I also travel by my buses, I have 27 or them, so if you need a bus, parts, or just advice, just yell

I'm still new to this tribe thing, but I am a nice person, and have the best buses in the world. I use school buses to haul medical and material aid to some of poorest places in the world (Haiti, Chiapas Mexico, El Salvador, and Nicaragua) and buy and sell them, and bus parts to support the project. I take every penny i make and convert it directly back into school supplies, medical supplies, tools, generators, and whatever the folks ask for specifically, (no junk, no used clothing) and then drive it down in person (except Haiti, that's $6000 thru the Panama Canal. Ouch)

I sell buses to folks that are 100% functioning in every way when they leave my hands, and also give any body thirty days to return the bus if unsatisfied. Nobody ever has, but it's OK, I'll just sell it to somebody else. you will also get a lifetime of free advice before and after you get a bus from me, I'm avaiable 7 days a week within reason, and after having dismantled 14 buses, and owning about 60,I am pretty knowledgable about their inner workings. Also got lots of good used bus parts, at the best price anywhere in the US. Ii have no overhead, just my Mazda mini truck and some tools.

I have a website (below) so you can check out my work. have a good one

LA Crash Space Needed

Nandi - Vehicle of Siva — Sat, 08 Oct 2005 17:53:20 GMT

OK - So I know this is ridiculously late but is there anyone within a reasonable drive from the LA Decom site who can help us find a place to camp or crash for a night or two? In turn we can host here at our Inner Richmond flat in SF for the SF Decom happening tomorrow.

At the most we would need a space for one or two nights. A back yard would be great as we are totally self contained with tent, etc. We are clean and pretty mellow and considerate. It would only be me and my girl Vani.

Thank you and Namste'.

They have set up shop in the leveled Chau Van Duc Buddhist Temple in east Biloxi, as well as having established a 24-hour free supermarket in a 44-foot dome donated by Pacific Domes http://www.pacificdomes.com, in an effort to aid the neglected Vietnamese community still living there.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/08/AR2005090802141.html

CURRENT NEEDS:

*WORKERS! to come help CLEAR DEBRIS and to help get the community back together.
*MONEY for GAS to run their GENERATORS, and buy more DOMES to house people in!

For more information, contact Shelly Lindsay at 541-482-7288.

You can also contact the Burning Man Staff directly at katrina-relief@burningman.com

There is also a mailing list which will provide periodic updates...

Names michael 22, originally irish but livin in london now after a stint as a tobacco farm hand in canada, doing the nursing thing in this massive beast we call london. Am planning to do asia next year post burn followed by another change of location possibly san fran, or sweeden depending on if i can get motivated enough to learn some, less brain cell destroyin nights out might be in order Methinks.

Well hopefully i can add a little european spice to the couch surfing burners!

Anyone got a place that I can crash for a night in the Tampa/ St. Petersburg/ Clearwater, Florida area? It would be for Saturday night, January 15.

Thanks!

the BM hostelling network

I love hostelling the BM way!

Of course it's been a bit easier since I've been a regional since 00, first Toronto, now Thailand, but the welcomes have been wonderful.

So far we've stayed with or visited burner friends and new friends in
Ottawa
Vancouver
Calgary
Chicago
Hawaii
Denton Texas
Tucson
Portland
L.A.
San Fran (where we are now)

we of course are hoping to add in
San Diego
Austin
New Orleans
New York

within the next year.

I wholly reccomend emailing the regional rep in the area that you're going to and asking if they would send out a post to the list, even if you're not looking for a place to stay a burner drink night is always wonderful fun!

Will swap my loft in sunny downtown LA for a shack anywhere in Hawaii. Sometime in the early summer.

I'm so glad you thought of this. My girlfriend and I are about to take a trip to Barcelona. We are looking for other burners to meet up with for play and places to stay.

We will be there from December 15th until Jan. 4th.

I live in Ashland, OR (very active burner community) and my couch is very warm and fuzzy. :)
