My friend, Aaron Nichols, is launching a new business and website, and his products are greattttt for the playa! He has quality blinkies, headlamps, packs, and tools, that will last through to the playa and beyond. Why go downtown to buy the cheap stuff when you can buy stuff that is fun for the burn, and gets you prepared for emergencies?

This is from Aaron:


Dear friends,

In the pursuit of my "disaster preparedness" business I have come across some fantastic products that cross over very well for Burning Man. In fact, some that are way better for Burning Man than for anything else. My eyes are still all rainbow-flashy from a bunch of fun LED toys I've been playing with and testing!

In this pre-launch phase of my business, I can use any and all revenue I can get, so that I can proceed with the real mission of helping people truly become more "radically self-reliant"(for more than just a week in the desert). That's why I'm writing to you. If you, or anyone you know, are going to Burning Man this year, please consider sending them our way to get hooked up with some uber-fabulous, steeply discounted, top-quality gear and toys. We're even making Burning Man essentials kits, for "virgins" and veterans alike.

Amae and I are setting up an exclusive appointment-only boutique at our home in West Hills/Woodland Hills (CA). We'll be here for you all the way up until you leave for Burning Man, and we'd love to see your smiling face when you walk away with some really choice items at great prices. Amae will be selling her beautifully designed clothing and jewelery (listed at bottom). Nobody will walk away without a killer deal. Expect to get hooked up.

In case you don't already know, I am a QUALITY SNOB. I don't use, buy or sell junk. I will not sell you something that sucks. Let me tell you a bit about what I have available for your playa-fication.

By the way, ALL OF THIS will be available on my site (www.mothereagle.net - still in production) by Thursday evening or Friday morning (¡Burning Man! category). Please spread the word. Also, 10% of the proceeds of my boutique sales will go directly to my sponsor child's family in Senegal. They don't even have electricity in their home! 90% will go right back into the business so that I can turn it around and provide you with superior preparedness gear and kits (expertly designed top-quality kits coming soon!!).
