      I guess what I’m saying is the largest qty of people going are of a middle/low income based on the average location called home.

      The rich represent a fairly small portion. Some of the people in my camp are way above my income but their generosity was astounding. IMO BM brings out the exceptional qualities of people.

      Don’t know the average but I think base price is about $600.

      I heard that the main chunk of your tickets cost goes to renting out the desert and paying for the federal Ranger and local police support

          I agree with that.

          I believe there are discounted tickets and even free tickets offered to minority artists as well as grants for art installations.
