A Burning Man Theme Camp 2006
In the brutal wilderness between the teeming cities of the future, along the trade routes of the Neo-Caravaners and the battle migrations of Jihadists and Jihadistas, lies the dwellings of the Tribe of the Crescent Star, sheltered in an oasis of its own construction.
Welcoming all who drop their weapons and their attitude outside its perimeters, the Tribe of the Crescent Star offer their guests the comforts of a Brave Old World -- for the body: cool mint tea, sweet dates and rahat loukoum, and mountains of soft pillows; for the soul: the play of light and water, and the music of paradise.
By day, the order's white satin banners can be seen by weary travellers from afar; in the evening, the glow of the tent-dome serves as a beacon calling all to the night's revels.
Calling all Bellydancers and Musicians: please join us for our Thursday night hafla after sundown! If you and/or your troupe want to dance, feel free to bring your music on an MP3 player - we'll hook you up! If you're a drummer, bring your instrument. We hope to see you there: 6:30 and ANXIOUS just to the left of Center Camp.
