Harvest Festival, 2011, The Burning Man Party

Sunday, September 18, 2011

At High Noon, David shut down the Psytrance Tent.  The Dj fussed about why David shut their party down.  Dave replied "I gave you tow extra hours this year."  The Psytrance Tent always shuts down at High Noon every year except for 2008.  In 2008 the Psytrance tent got to play until 2:00 PM because Shakedown Lighting and Sound got their van stuck on a ridge.

DJ Onslaude played for the final four hours in the Pyramid.  The afternoon was full of great music, dancing and beer bottle collecting for the Volunteer / Crew Dinner at the Swiss Country house.

Yellow Magic is a great record to dance to because the music sounded like an old school video game from the Commodore 64

The Plya was hopping on the Sunday afternoon Pyramid.  It's almost like being at Burning Man.  I never been to Burning Man myself.  I am hoping to go for 2012.

At one occasion, people were climbing up the Pyramid.  The shadows were moving to the music as they scaled the structure.

During the afternoon, a small dust storm blew across the plya.  Fortunatly there was no need to duck for cover like In Black Rock City

For the entire afternoon, the front flap of the pyramid was raised to let the cool air circulate after a long cold night.

The Pioneer Mixer is covered in plya dust by the end of the party.

After the party wrapped up, it's time to pack up and head home for the Halloween Season at the Power House Of Terror or Screemers

Passing through Burks Falls after the Festival

Crossing the highway back to the Power House of Terror where the Z1 Virus has broke.

Lock down your doors, close your windows and head to the Power House of Terror for 13 days of Terror in 3 new attractions.

Every Sunday morning, the Psytrance Tent is the place to dance all morning.  At OM, Sunday Morning Church is an all day event everyone loves.  At Harvest, it's only a half-day event.

The dense fog rises from the River Styx as the sun rises over the horizon.

The Psy Trance Tent is hopping as the sun rises for a nice clear sunny day.

A dancing Tree was seen on the dance floor during Sunday Morning Church.

The Goodtimes Gang had a bunch of DJS play in the Pyramid until sunset.

The dancefloor was full for the entire afternoon.

The Set list for the Pyramid.  The Pyramid played great music All Saturday afternoon and evening.

People love the barge.  This is the third year that the barge was in use.  It gives people a quick passage between the Techno Tent to the Pyramid.

Don't forget to get your free windshield repair when you arrive or leave the festival.  Mr Ronnisize will do the honours repairing your stonechips.

The House of Eclipse Festival Flyers on the Barter Bar.

The Brazillian Drum Band Marches through the Harvest Festival as the sun sets.

Following the circus, the Harvest Squash Soup is served off the back of the Bouncy Truck.

At 10:00 PM the music tents opened.  The Techno Tent was packed and it was almost impossible to get in.  The Pyramid played some great tracks with DJ Martin Fazakas.

Slava was a GO GO dancer on a large boulder in the centre of the pyramid.

Rob created this piece of blacklight String Art in the forest behind the Techno Tent

A heavy fog blankets the Harvest Festival site.  A flame spits out of the roof of the pyramid.

Justin Martins throws the match and lights the Harvset Bonfire.
