Basically everyone has heard of Burning Man in some form--whether from seeing absurd photos to come out of it, a news story detailing something completely out of control that happened there, or, if you're lucky, a first-hand account from a friend--but it always seems to be steeped in quite a bit of mystery. All that's for sure is that the festival takes place every year for eight days in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, and there's a hell of a lot of hippies, public nudity, drugs, and well, just plain debauchery.
