    If you don’t have the right gear and attitude, you’re going to have a bad time at burning man to begin with.

    There’s a certain type of burner that shows up for the weekend and leaves. Other types of burners (DPW) actually setup the city and tear it down after the event, living on the playa for months.

    So yeah, it’s a spectrum, for sure.
