NYC Burning Man Decompression Party is Sept. 20th 2013 Kostume Kult presents Reentry Mythic Return

Societal pressure of wearing pants got you down? Not enough dust in your food? Can't sleep without the sounds of 6 muffled bass tracks playing simultaneously? You could be suffering from PBSD. 
Post Burn Stress Disorder. 
Don't worry there is help. We can commiserate how un-sparkly the default world seems together. Don't worry it gets better.

Come to Kostume Kult's Decompression Party on Saturday Sept. 20th 2013!
We know what you are going through. We know you want to roll your eyes at your coworker when they say "I just couldn't live without a shower for a week", while asking how your trip to "Fire Running Man" was. We know you need to be around people in NYC who make eye contact and won't punch you if you try to hug them. 

With that said, here are the detail you need to know.

Kostume Kult presents
REENTRY 2013
~Mythic Return~
Friday, September 20th
9pm - 5am

In many cultures there is the belief of the Return of some divine being --- be it Osiris, Apollo, Jesus, Alien Astronauts, the Mayan Quetzalcoatl, "Bob" (Church of the Subgenius) and, from Burning Man's 2013 Cargo Cult theme -- the most generous and all-knowing John Frum...

And thus, we return bringing a messianic aura, bountiful gifts, glowy gadgetry and fine dusty fashions to bestow our burning goodness on the huddled masses of New York City.... The Second Coming is upon us! What are you going to wear ????
