Black Rock City
The final thing I done on my trip was to visit Black rock city. The first thing that happened me when entering the city is that I was given a big hug and was told "welcome home" I then gonged a big gong and was made a citizen of Black Rock City.
Black rock city is a city built from scratch and completly dismantled in the space of 7 days. Its the home of creativity & community, a boiling pot of artist & lunatics, its a bohemian fantasy land where anything & everything goes on, and the exact opposite of that too. Take the felling you get walking around the best festival you've ever been at, multiply it by 10 and then stretch it out for 7days, 24 hours a day and your begininning to get the feel of what life as a citizen of Black Rock is like. I've heard a lot of people tryin to explain what happens to you over the space of a week and everyone of them stumbles and falls over words while trying to communicate something that can only be felt. Its an amazing place, I'm going back again & again, going back home.
Oh yeah, a neon man burns on Saturday night and everyone goes nuts
