They are the guardians of one of the longest running continuous rituals of Black Rock City. The Lamplighters bring light to the playa, as well as their legendary 21 hour-a-day bar. Learn about how to volunteer for The Man, the parties they don't throw anymore and why, different uses for The Temple, and everything you didn't know about the rich history of the Lamplighters told to you by one of their own, a delightful man named Moonbeam. There's a lot about lanterns in this episode, though you'll find that D-Day and Rex can't manage to describe one.

    Hey, Moonbeam is talking about Nick. Nick's lifetime of photos are being scanned by his son-in-law. See them here:

    Looking forward to my first burn in 2018...who knows, maybe I'll get in touch with the Lamplighters!
