The Bay Area Derby Girls need your help
The Derby Girls can't compete where they've been competing any longer
because too many people have been coming to watch and the location doesn't
have the correct permits to support that many people. It seems as if
another location has been secured but the catch is, the Derby Girls will
need to provide their own floor surface. And floors aren't cheap.
Therefore, the B.A.D. Girls are holding a fundraiser this Thursday, May 24th
at DNA to raise money for a sport court. It's a late night adventure (doors
open at 9pm, show starts at 11pm). There will be skating by current team
members and great performances such as. Devilettes Paige's Skate Tease
Bottoms Up Burlesque Bombshell Betty The Indra And photos with the Derby

San Francisco, CA- Investors of False Profit, LLC - an international consortium of brokers under close scrutiny by the US Treasury for their paradigm-challenging economic theories - plan to collect extensive Dividends this Thursday at the Poleng Lounge. Amping up for FP's nth year in BRC, the night will feature some of the talent that will be contributing to one of False Profit, LLC's signature marks on the playa - The Tuesday Night Party.
This is the Poleng Lounge's first meeting with False Profit, LLC and the forward-thinking investor base. Officials at the Treasury reacted with a initial plan to send in one or several National Guard companies, but backed down, citing there were none left to mobilize.
It has been rumored that Dr. Toast, holding a doctorate in Downtempo, has recently been in the lab isolating several new isotopes of Bass.

The Dreamtime Circus presents ~ "Between Worlds"
The Dreamtime Circus is a troupe of fire fairies, clowns, musicians, and all types of other magical and fantastical creatures who travel far and wide to share the uplifting experience of the circus with the peoples of the world.
From September 2007 to March 2008, the Dreamtime Circus shall bring its dreamtime creations across the globe to India, where we will dazzle and delight children and grown-ups alike. Orphanages, refugee camps, villages, and cities, wherever a circus need be, a circus shall be. All shows will be free. We seek to use fire and circus arts as mediums for fostering cross-cultural communication and open exchanges of cultural ideas and artistic expressions. We carry with us respect and appreciation for the world's people, cultures, and land; and a positive vision for the planet's future.
You can help make the Dreamtime Circus a reality!

SATURDAY JUNE 2ND - THE EXPERIMENT
The Experiment continues! We are very pleased to announce the most
exciting installment of THE EXPERIMENT yet! We'll be bringing back
the bamboo rain waterfall, and re-doing the decor in both rooms (got
some cool fabrics on the last trip to LA, and will be doing some new
things). As if that wasn't enough, this will be on a SATURDAY
NIGHT!!!!! From there, we've got one of the most amazing lineups
we've ever assembled, on or off the playa. No, really - check this
out... 9 amazing burner artists/performers, and two who are getting
ready to make their first trips to the playa in 2007.
JNR HACKSAW - a world-class master of electro-breaks, coming over
from the UK to show us how it's done
DAVID STARFIRE - he tore it up at Experiment #2 in April, and at last
week's Lightning In A Bottle event
THE PHAT CONDUCTOR - one of the mad scientists involved with
Bassnectar, making an ultra-rare bay area appearance
EVINRUDE, KAPT'N KIRK, & ERNIE TREVINO of SPACE COWBOYS - laying down
an incredible tag-team set
FRICTION - an incredible musical force, fresh off a hot performance
at Lightning In A Bottle
TAO JONES - first ever US appearance of THE PHAT CONDUCTOR under his
new downtempo alter-ego
PR.INCEST - another first time appearance from this amazing downtempo
artist from Canada
EVAN BENDER - back from the jungle of South America and ready to tear
things up in the main room
FLOOK - one of the unsung heroes of The Experiment, you need to get
here early to catch this guy
Two rooms of incredible sound, multiple bars, visuals by VJ SCIENCE,
and atmospheres by ELECTRIC THEATRE. A portion of the proceeds will
go to help upgrade The Purgatory Cruiser for 2007's trip to Burning
Man, as well as help Electric Theatre build a brand new mutant
vehicle, a 20-foot long inter-dimensional cruiser called The Great
Abyss!!!

Mike Daisey @ Berkeley Rep Wednesday June 6th-Saturday June 9th
We worked out a hefty discount for Burners for these
performances (45%-71%).
Gather together for a pre-Burn celebration when the creator /
performer of 21 Dog Years: Doing Time at Amazon.com and The
Ugly American, returns to Berkeley Rep with Great Men of Genius.
Mike Daisey applies his trademark wit and unique perspective
to four fascinating historical figures. On consecutive nights,
Mike profiles the legendary lives of P.T. Barnum, Bertolt Brecht,
L. Ron Hubbard and Nikola Tesla, exploring the nature of genius
and the pride, insanity and chauvinism that bind these men
together. Meet one genius for an insightful and entertaining
evening—or meet all four for a truly epic account of triumph and
folly.
Choose from the following performances:
Brecht: Wed, Jun 6 at 8pm
Barnum: Thu, Jun 7 at 8pm
Tesla: Fri, Jun 8 at 8pm
Hubbard, Sat June 9 at 8pm
The more geniuses you see, the more money you save—and as a
Burner, you save from the very beginning! See any of the
above performances, pay just $25 for one genius / $40 for 2
/ $60 for all 4 — brilliant!
Want to buy just one genius? Want to read more about the show?

For multiple geniuses, call 510.647.2949 and mention Burning Man

===================================================================
NOTE: We originally planned to do this event June 2nd on Utah St and inside our beloved Mighty (host of many theme camp fundraisers and our Burnal Equinox). However, the street closure permit times and conditions were too restrictive for us to do this event and safely accommodate everyone wishing to attend. Knowing that many of you wish to attend this Pre-Com we were forced to move to a larger, mostly indoor venue and the June 9th date. We are truly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. We love Mighty and hope to return there in the future.
