#177 - Burning Man Documentary
Episode 184
Saturday, 3 October, 2026

Left to their own devices, Rob and Alan take a trip to the Nevada desert for BURNING MAN! Well, we watched the new documentary about it, anyway! The Man Will Burn is a new docuseries from HBO Films that came out in July. The film series explores the origins and development of the festival as well as the art, the music, the philosophy, and the challenges that it faced from COVID, extreme weather, and internal and external opposition. Afterward, we talk about new music from Simple Minds and U2, seeing Brandi Carlile live, and we go on a doozy of an old man rant about how no one cares about live music anymore!
