Hi friends! I’ve been to Burning Man twice and it was utterly life changing for me. Getting to return to the dust with the intention of playing music and making new musical friends, I know it’s going to be the best burn yet! |
My first Burning Man (and the only one for the moment) was 2019. So,i am almost a virgin.I was a part of audience in the PlayaPop concert, of course i liked it.I play tuba and sousaphone around 20 years ,like it, like music and hope i will be part of Playa Pops this year 2023 |
My first experience with the PlayaPops was as an audience member at my first burn in 2017. I had not played my flute since freshman year of High School, but I knew I wanted to be a part of the Pops! I signed up for the 2018 season, took months to relearn how to play the pieces, and have been here every year since. Being in this group gave me the confidence to continue playing year round by joining a local wind ensemble at home. |
I’ve been playing clarinet for over 60 years, including University of Arizona Marching Band, where we appeared in the first Super Bowl. I presently have a 12-piece klezmer band that performs professionally for various events, play alto clarinet in a clarinet choir, and play with various Jewish musical groups. Having attended my first burn in 2010, I was intrigued by all the music on the playa, and started playing with the Burning Band, Playa Pops and others 2016-2019. The last few years I’ve camped with Snowflake Village/Burning Band and look forward to being with all of you in 2022. Safety Third! |
