Hi all,
I just want to jump in here and say a few things. I've read through this thread starting from just before Desert Bus go time last Friday, and I'd like to respond to a few of the things that have come up.
Basically, I appreciate that you guys want to give us feedback, and I want you to know that we are seeing what you're saying, and we'll be talking about all of it in the weeks and months to come. There is a
lot of planning and time and thought that goes into this event, but obviously we can't anticipate or plan for everything.
There were definitely some things that we feel worked much better this year, and things that made all of us on the crew feel much more sane throughout the event. However, there were also things that will need altering and improvement for next year, and we all plan to do our best to make those improvements. It's great for us to hear from you what you liked and what you didn't like - we know how the event was for us, but it's important for us to hear what the experience was like from the other end. Some things we can change, and some we can't, but know that whether or not your suggestions are carried out, they are being read and considered. We fully recognize that the key to Desert Bus' success has always been its interaction with all of you guys, and viewers' ability to feel like they are part of the event. We most definitely do not want to lose that.
Thank you to all of you for sticking with us through the good and through the not so good, and thank you for your thoughtful and heartfelt feedback. We will do our best to make Desert Bus better each year. We deeply appreciate your continued support, even as Desert Bus gets bigger and becomes less and less hipster.
You guys watching and taking part is what makes all of this possible.
<3
