Woe betide the line cutter. Not only is it rude to push in front of people in a queue; your actions could have million dollar ramifications.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
