The sign that greets attendees is seen at the gate of the 2013 Burning Man arts and music festival with the year's theme of "Cargo Cult", in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, August 29, 2013. The federal government issued a permit for 68,000 people from all over the world to gather at the sold out festival, which is celebrating its 27th year, to spend a week in the remote desert cut off from much of the outside world to experience art, music and the unique community that develops.
