Housewarming

2008-03-29T22:14:22Z

Even if I don't know you you're invited!

April 1st (yes that's April Fool's) @ 7:00pm
The address is Apt. 411, 617 Rue St-Remi

The main door is on St-Remi but if you go around the corner on Rue Acorn at look for a door with blue horses on it it'll lead you straight to my door, just keep going straight.

And just so you know, I *JUST* moved in, so vitually no furniture. Bring lawn chairs, yoga balls, picnic blankets whatever you like.

A Roundup of Organs for Montreal Burners

2008-03-29T22:08:48Z

Just to make sure everybody knows how to keep tabs on Montreal Burning Man happenings...

THE ONE TRUE PRIMARY ORGAN:

Our *official* organ of discussion and announcement is the "Brûleurs de Montréal Burners" mailing list. All the really important action happens here, including announcements of our monthly café meetings. If you're not subscribed to the "Brûleurs" list, you could be missing out on all the fun, sex, and excitement of being an active member of the Montreal Burning Man scene. Sign up here:
http://disc.bruleurs.net/mailman/listinfo/bruleurs

VARIOUS SECONDARY, UNOFFICIAL, OR PROSTHETIC ORGANS:

We have a bilingual wiki (often hosed by spammers, unfortunately):
http://bruleurs.net/Main/HomePage

The "montreal-announce" mailing list (found via the BurningMan.com website) is almost never used. Ignore it.

The "Brûleurs de Montreal Burners" Facebook Group is useful for getting the word out to Facebook users. Whenever we hold a meeting or other event, we send out invitations to all members of this group:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=7656265729

There's also Matt Bouchard's "Burning Man 2008 - Montreal Region" Facebook Group. Probably a good place to make plans for BM'08:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=6549411830

Tribe.net is a cool social networking site adopted by a gajillion Burners around the globe, and it's rife with Burner discussion boards. The "Brûleurs de Montreal Burners" tribe is good for making connections both locally and internationally:
http://montrealburners.tribe.net

Flickr users! There's a "Brûleurs de Montreal Burners" Flickr Group! If you have photos of a Brûleurs event, or of Montrealers being Burnerish (so long as they aren't doing anything *too* naughy or actionable -- always ask before you shoot!), add 'em here:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/bruleurs/

You can also post photos on the wiki (above).

I've just created the "burningmontreal" community on LiveJournal for all us LJ-geeks. Join up here:
http://community.livejournal.com/burningmontreal/

Now you know where to find the phun!

See you at our next meeting -- or out on the playa,

Science
(Glenn)

Looking for some leads on burningman related stuff

2008-03-09T01:38:21Z

My niece Viki lives in Montreal and I have been trying to encourage her to connect with the burner scene in Montreal. She has not been to BM though one day she will come with me. I live in s.f. and have been going since 86. I work for the man with DPW. This town has more than we can handle in a week of stuff to do. What goes on in Montreal? I will be working with the flaming lotus girls this year...is there any projects in the making for this year that she could possibly check out? Any kind of events, fund raisers, gatherings of sorts? I believe that she is on this tribe.
If any one has any leads please let me know.
Thanks,
Robin Hood

Brûleurs Mars! (That's French for the month between February and April)

2008-03-04T04:45:51Z

March march march onwards fellow Brûleurs. We have officially passed the halfway mark. Time to get cracking!

The usual, drinking, chatting, possibly some spanking. The theme for March... (insert mp3 of your favourite drumroll, I personally like this one: http://www.dramaticpublishing.com/download/mp3/StageSounds/3DrumrollFanfare.mp3)

"How are you going to contribute to Black Rock City in 2008?"

Of course nobody cares if you adhere to the theme, but hell, why not have one?

Since Evan got scooped last month on the venue we'll give his suggestion the green light this month. Ding!

Date: Tuesday, March 11, 2008
Time: 7:00pm - 10:00pm
Location: Laïka, 4040 Boulevard St-Laurent

Hugs and dust devils for everyone!

Regional events?

2007-12-25T01:25:53Z

So here I am at work, not thinking about work but rather, what the fuck will I do with myself next spring/summer? ;)

I'm in Alberta and while planning for another trip to BRC next summer is appealing, I'd like to see more.

I hear all this stuff about big regional parties in Vancouver and while that's fine and all, it's vancouver and doesn't' really excite me.

But going to Quebec is a different story; never been and would like to find a good reason to go.

Anything Burning-Like in the works out there? (that would warrent a plane ticket?)

ny burners roadtrip to montreal

2007-12-09T18:31:52Z

Hello! Bonjour! I'm happy to find this website of Montreal burners, and hoping to connect up while trekking from NYC to Montreal in the upcoming weekend (Nov 30-Dec 2nd). It's a quick whirlwind trip, but I'm taking my car and loading it with burner friends/musicians/filmmakers and artists to venture through the city for my birthday. I've learned about rave.ca just from reading some posts on here, but also figured I'd send a post out to see if anyone knew of some great happenings that are open, artist, vj, experimental, musical, open mic, poetic, burner-friendly type parties...etc. Is there anything of the sort in Montreal? All suggestions welcome! and anyone who wants to meet up and join on our adventure brigade is also welcome. Always up for meeting new folks across the country. Merci, Holly

Cirque du Soleil Artist- New to Town seeks like-minded Burners for...?

2007-11-30T03:20:01Z

Hi.

I'm stoked that there is a Burner tribe here in Montreal. Viva la playa!

This past year was my 7th year in a row and they just keep getting better...so I guess that's a total of about 2 months I've lived at Burning Man...but what lifetimes we all live within that one fleeting week per year?!

About me:

I'm a 27 year old human being from Santa Cruz California. I've lived in Montreal for 26 days and will be gone in 3 months. I'm here working as a fire manipulator, dancer and fire coach with Cirque du Soleil for an upcoming show (off to China with the rest of the cast in January). I don't speak French but want to learn (warming up for Cantonese).

My dream is to experience the natural and cultural beauty that is Earth, to do something positive and to further my understanding and involvement with the divine mystery that is everything. Although I never grew out of the faery tales I discovered as a child I am pretty serious these days about seeking clarity and living from my heart. I read a lot of non-fiction, meditate and entertain most of my dreams and fantasies.

In addition to dance and fire and burning man I entertain a few other muses like poetry and song writing (if anyone knows of any good open mic's- I've been curious), beat boxing too. One day I will make short films (currently learning how to edit). I am most content in the sunshine and love to be outdoors. Blah ze blah... Overall, I'm a solid human being looking to get shaken out of my element a bit.

I currently have no life outside of Cirque du Soleil. Every weekend so far I do my best to escape the hood around the landfill (we're up by Jarry and D'iberville) and explore the city, so I've walked a ton and seen some of the surface/ tourist stuff. I've heard so much over the years about how cool this city is and all that jazz and hope I have the opportunity to experience this while I'm here (and training crazy-long hours Monday through Friday).

So if anyone wants to connect, I'm yours.

OK. That's it. Be well.

SriKanta
ps. Did you all ever get the decompression party off the ground? just curious

Tuesday Meet n' Conspire!

2007-11-10T06:00:09Z

Kay O'Sweaver has announced a gathering of the Brûleurs de Montreal Burners Tuesday, 13 November, from 7PM to 9PM.

Once again (and I swear next time we'll meet somewhere else!) we're meeting at the notoriously hidden Café L'Utopik, 552 Ste Catherine E., just east of Berri, across from Berri-UQAM Metro. A small doorway next to the magazine shop leads to this upstairs café. It's a vegan café, kid-friendly, and they have beer and wine.

Topics of discussion:
1) Road trip to Toronto for the Post-Playa Party (not-a-Decom!) on 17 November. Seriously, YOU want to be at this party! Join us and we'll rent a mini-van or a bus or a hovercraft, whatever.
2) NYC Decom attendees get to gloat and share stories with those of us who couldn't make it.
3) Further hatching of plans for local Burning Man events in Montreal, including:
-- a private fund-raiser party some time soonish (we need a venue for this! Ask around, folks!)
-- THE big party, a Burnal Equinox event in late winter.

Be there or be set on fire!

Burners! Meet and organize, Tuesday 9 October!

2007-11-08T17:34:33Z

Calling all Montreal Burners!

Mr. Bad has called a Monthly Brûleurs meeting for Tuesday, 9 Oct, from 7PM to 9PM.

We'll be at the notoriously hidden Café L'Utopik, 552 Ste Catherine E., just east of Berri, across from Berri-UQAM Metro. A small doorway next to the magazine shop leads to this upstairs café. It's a vegan café, kid-friendly, and they have beer and wine.

Topics of discussion: sharing stories and photos from Burning Man 2007; plans for local Burning Man events in Montreal.

It's probably a bit late for us to organize a Decom -- no public venues are available for booking -- but we may hold an event of some kind; maybe a fund-raiser.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Vancouver Burners coming to Montreal - need some advice.

2007-09-25T21:19:04Z

Hello fellow dust hounds!

My wife and I (got married last year on the playa) will be Montreal the labour day weekend as part of our vacation.
Yes that means we won't be at the Burn this year. :-(
(my wife's brother decided to get married in Cambridge Ontario in late August.) :-/

Granted many of you may well be in Nevada, but is there anything going on in Montreal that long weekend we should know about?
What are the good hang outs or night clubs with good vibes and low on bar-stars?
I would appreciate your advice and insights to your city!

Thanks a million!

NYC Burner needs a place to stay for Osheaga Festival this weekend 9/7/2007 - 9/10/2007

2007-09-04T17:58:47Z

Chers Brûleurs,

I will be driving to montreal with my sexy girlfriend this weekend for the Osheaga festival at Parc Jean-Drapeau and we need a place to crash! We'll be arriving friday night and leaving monday afternoon.

We can return the favor and host you in new york city. We have a ridiculously large place on broadway in the 70s with 2 extra bedrooms and can host you whenever. We are 3 blocks from central park.

Please email me if you can help us with a place to lay our little heads. We both speak 'ok' french.

Thanks,

Your help needed! Please donate to Montreal Homeless!!

2007-07-20T14:42:16Z

Hello everyone!

We are doing a donation drive for for homeless men and women at two homeless shelters. We would like to provide them with items for personal hygienic kits so that they can maintain cleanliness and presentablity. Rarely are the homeless given the basic hygiene supplies necessary to maintain their health and confidence. Every homeless person should be able to look themselves in the mirror and be proud of what they see even if they do not have a home. Access to basic personal supplies can give these homeless people a greater sense of self and a brighter outlook on life. We are going to be providing small pouches/sacs with each of these items below.

I would like to ask all of you if you would be able to donate items that would be helpful for the organization. For those who live in the Montreal area - if you can donate shampoo, small toothpaste, soap etc...it would be much appreciated!! The kits include cheap items that can be picked up while shopping or with a trip to the dollar store. By giving these basic supplies to us, you can help them avoid physical and dental health problems. Perhaps even more importantly, you can help them retain their dignity during a trying time in their lives.

We are looking for:

1. small bottles of shampoo
2. small toothpaste,
3. hand towel
4. toothbrush
5. soap
6. comb
7. hand sanitizers
8. tissue
9. deodorant
10. tampons – if we can find them or afford to get them….

If you can provide some of these items it would be helpful. We will be sorting them with items from other donors and placing them in small bags.We can pick them up from anywhere in Montreal.

You can contact me through this website. Please check this link for more information - createahealthyworld.blogspot.com/

cheers,

Alok

bellydancing and tribal dance in Montreal

2007-05-29T01:45:17Z

I want to take up bellydancing. Can anyone recommend a good teacher in Montreal, preferably but not necessarily teaching in english? I am also very curious about triabl bellydance. I have never seen it and would love to see how it compares to traditional bellydance. If I prefer it then I would study that instead but since I have only read about it I can't say. So if anyone knows where/when I might be able to see some tribal bellydance performance I would love to know, and whether there are any teachers in the city. Thanks!

Montreal BM 2007 Campers

2007-04-29T17:06:17Z

A number of Montreal burners have already begun talking about camping together at the big burn and at Firefly in Northern Vermont this summer. We'll be meeting at Utopik next Wednesday 4/25 @ 7:30 PM to sketch out our plans more concretely. Anybody interested in camping it up with us is welcome to join.

The plan is to pARTicipate in the Firefly regional burn on the week-end of July 5-8 ( http://fireflyartscollective.org/ ), and then go for it big time at the end of August.

Café L'Utopik is at 552 Ste-Catherine E. To find us, look for the bearded honky wearing the crimson velour dinner jacket that you see in my profile.

Artistes

2006-10-20T14:57:48Z

Hello all. I'm a Calgarian preparing for a move to Montreal August of next year. I'm wondering what neighbourhood(s) would be considered the more artistic/bohemian districts, the place where artists, students and the likes hang out and live. I'm also planning to attend Concordia so something either close or easy to get to/from Concordia would be a bonus. My French is rusty but I wouldn't mind living in a French neighbourhood, it'd sharpen my skills quick!

Thanks all. :)

AZ Burner in town for a Conference

2006-08-16T04:19:15Z

Hello there my Fellow Burning Man Family in Montreal. I am here for a wonderfully professional meetings and am looking to supplement my pain with a bit of pleasure. I would love to connect with a few of you during my time here to see what the family is like up here in French Canada. Alas, I cannot speak french but I love to hear it spoken. I hear that there a few nice clubs but they tend to get expensive and I have little money to be shoving to corporate fun. So hit me up and tell me what is going on in the underground burner scene this weekend. You can email me directly at netneal@yahoo.com or AIM me at netnealtoo. My phone accepts text messages but I can't call out on it (011-520-440-4274). I look forward to hearing from you all and painting the town flames. :-)

We'll have a sign with the )'( BM symbol on it.

Whether you can come to the Ignition 2006 camp-out in mid-August or not, please try to come to the meeting, and hang with your fellow Montreal Burners!

2006-08-05T00:11:15Z

we've finally received our tickets and are trying to start planning the trip but we were wondering if there were any quebecois/montrealer camps setting up down there with some infrastructure that we might be able to plug into, because there's a good chance we won't be able to bring so much stuff if we fly...

so, you have a theme camp in the works? or even just a group of nice people willing to put up with our smell for a few days? let me know who you are and what you're planning!!

Ignition 2006 planning meeting, take two

2006-07-31T05:15:19Z

Today's putative meeting was, shall we say, under-attended. No doubt you are all too busy with preparations for the Playa. Or the Pride parade. Or both. We know how it is.

Anyway, I've been asked to set a date and place for our second First Planning Meeting. Before I do, some feedback from you would be helpful:

1. Can you help to organize Ignition 2006, our second Montreal Regional event?

2. What nights can you meet?

3. Where should we meet?

Please speak up now, so we have some idea if anyone wants to make things happen.

Best,

Hello!

I moved to Sainte-Adele from Sweden about a month ago now to work. I did a lot of fire spinning in Sweden, but I had to leave some of my gear behind.
I was wondering if anyone knows a place where you can get aluminum tubing to make a firestaff out of? I've been looking in the local shops and hardware stores but so far I've come up empty-handed.

Also, are there any regular meetings around the Montreal area for fire spinning?

Art Donation for BM 2006 !

2006-07-06T16:49:28Z

I am willing to donate art made just for BM 2006.

Postcard size paintings.

The problem.

I can't make it in time from Montreal to BM this year to give them myself.

I wrote BM and got a reply from Sacred Flame - Mistress of Information/Placement Team, and she asked me to ask around for help.

So I am here asking for help.

The SCOPE :

It is a social relations and tangible art project.

It is for anyone. Strangers to those that offer to help will be the best.

Ideally it would be one postcard per lot / tent / address.

I am waiting for a reply from BM organisers to see about a rough idea for the number of adresses.

Theme Kamp -- Kanuckistan Village?

2006-01-17T19:50:53Z

This is a repost from something on the Kanuckistan tribe, so I'll keep it short. Check there for more disscussion.

I've been getting some messages about moving the Kanuckistan Village project forward.

The next step are, as far as I can see:

- get guidelines for village application/ management form BM web site (clipped below, probably not due until early summer)

- solicit Kanadian camps (Post here or get ahlod of me).

- announce 'positions' that are open and solicit people to fill them

So far, I've heard of support from
- Alberta (the ever-so-cute Cap'n Q as regional, but with the support of many others)
- Edwierdo in Montreal
- Vertumunus as part of Calgary/Toronto/Vancouver crews
- Camp Couseller Brad in the Torono/London/C4 side of things

Which other camps other than the Albertan F.U.C.K.ers and C4 might be interested. Is anyone on other listservs/tribes? Could we put out the call?

There is another discussion on this tribe on what we would want the theme camp to be (oh, and 'villages' are techincally 150 or more people, so we'll have to have that many people confirmed before we go for village status)

Any ideas? Anyone part of the planning crew for their camp interested in speaking up?

And for now, except a link to reccomendations for theme camps:

___________________________________________________

Here's the criteria as clipped from last year's event:

2005 THEME CAMP CRITERIA

Criteria for a Theme Camp and Village

Camps should be visually stimulating.

Theme Camps must be interactive. They should include activities, events or service to the Burning Man Community in general. In most cases creating a chill dome with music and relaxation is not enough to receive placement. Some camp members should be at your camp at all times in order for your activities to be as accessible to others as possible.

The Theme Camp Registration deadline for Burning Man 2005 is July 1st, 2005 at midnight.
Please register your camp prior to the deadline so that you may receive the Theme Camp Announcements that we send once you are registered. They will provide you with all of the answers to your questions. Get in the loop - register as soon as your plans are solidified.

Camp Maps and Clean Up Plans must also be received by July 1st. We will not place your camp without these plans. Maps must be in aerial perspective complete with dimensions in feet.
You can submit the plans four ways:

Send map URL in an email with camp name in the subject line to campplans (at) burningman (dot) com. Include camp name in subject line.

Email Clean Up Plan only to campplans (at) burningman (dot) com. (NO ATTACHMENTS!) Include camp name in subject line.

Fax Map and Clean Up Plan to 415-707-2168

Send plans via US Mail to:
Burning Man/Theme Camps
P.O. Box 88468
San Francisco, CA 94188-4688
Fax: 415-707-2168
We look forward to seeing your plans for 2004! It will be exciting to see the creativity bar raised once again.
—The Placement Team.

Hi folks,

I'm a tribal dancer based in Ottawa, and I'm giving a workshop as an intro to tribal style bellydance on Jan 21st in Mont Tremblant. For anyone who's seen the tribal performances on the playa and interested in learning, this workshop is for you :)

Details are as follows:

Le 21 janvier 2006 à Mont-Tremblant: Danse orientale Nour A'Shems et la tribu Solstice vous invitent à un atelier d’initiation à la danse tribale avec Ocean Fire d’Ottawa.

Renseignements: Valérie Leclerc au (819) 688-5591 ou au pierredelune777@hotmail.com
(it's easiest to get Valerie by phone!)

Hope to see some of you there!

Leslie / Ocean fire

Drink Night?

2006-01-02T21:51:21Z

Wondering if there is any interest here to take some steps to foster a stronger sense of community among us MTL Brûleurs.

There are certainly enough of us in this town. I think that among the first steps that the Ottawa and Torono communities took were regular drink nights. So if there are at least 3 or 4 takers, we could get that started, or not?

Montreal would make for an interesting case study. Why are there so many burners here but no strong clotting factor that gets us to hang out with each other and be all burner-like together.

A few hypothesis (most of which can be fairly easily obliterated with the application of some clear thinking):
- We're not communicating in French and most burners are French.
- BM is mostly an anglo U.S. thing and MTL is a mostly French city.
- MTLers are just too cool for school. Organizing intentional community is for keeners and nerds. If you have to make your own community, you are a self-declared loser.
- MTL is a multi-polar cultural city that satisfies the cultural cravings of most burner types. So there is little to push us towards each other for us to get our fix.
- The requisite 2 to 3 charismatic, extroverted community building enthusiast types have yet to step forward and persevere in moving the community building process forward from stage to stage.

So, if there is some interest, let's get mildly drunk together, make eye contact, sit in chairs and make little mouth noises at each other. If not, that would be kinda ok too, but also kinda not ok.

Hello Native Burners !!

2005-12-10T01:27:32Z

OK, so I'm a little slow on the draw ...

I just signed up on the TRIBE network hoping to find a better way of keeping in touch with the Montreal (and extended) burner community...

As Ed and Science can attest (and maybe others that I did not meet there), Toronto's Decomp party was a rockin' - with one massive call-out to playa friend Jason"The Bus Driver" for truckin' his party-bus (jaccuzzi on-board and all) all the way from Michigan.

It's time we get (or at last I GET involved) to the task of putting Montreal on the burner-regional-map! Not only for us Montrealers, but indeed for the burner community at large, so that burners from around the globe know they have homes here in La Belle Province whenever they are a passin' by.

OK, thats it for now ... just wanted to jump in and say hi.

I would like to whey in on the Kanukistan debate ... but at a later date.

Peasce, love, and fire.

Darryl From Montreal

Kanadians Unite!

2005-11-02T15:04:35Z

This is an email of vertumnus' (a Calgary-based burner who gets around the country a lot), inviting all us Kanadians (or Kanucks) to get together and make something, well, strange and maybe even beautiful.

I'd also like to invite any and all of you to join Kanuckistan, a friendly group of western Kanucks who are all about the burn baby burn. We've got a thread going on about this too. Oh, and check out the Manifesto.

O.K., back to his email:

I have something I would like to throw out there to be mulled over by community over this next year -- i have thrown it out to Van-town and Ontario community...

it is clear that the Kanadians RAWK on Playa...

I wonder if there is an interest in a joint application " under Theme Camps to have a Kanadian zone of camps -- each on there own ( maybe similar to Gigsville) but located in the same area...
this would mean less distance to travel to Rawking events -- such as orange party, street hockey,Santa con, pussy party, post temple burn party, bike repair camp and any other new events...
and will make the greater camp more interactive with our fellow citizens - hence possibly better placement in the city with possible benefits that go with that.

build on the strengths that the various regions have to make MORE... or just have more fun

i have heard customs agents, a border crossing, passports and body searches -- :-)

hugs
V
