I have to agree a giant bonfire would be a lot cooler. We'll be there xmas next year too, should I bring some stuff to burn? :) I was in DC myself last weekend- in fact I went to get a drink right across the street from the tree & menorah.

Christmas has pretty good timing being only a week earlier, that way the tree is pretty dry by NYE. Nothing does it better than a 12 foot flaming rocket blast coming off the Holiday tree in under 60 seconds. I like the idea of burning off the old for a New Year celebration.

It's in August, not January, but otherwise that pretty much sums it up. You should go next year. You’ve just described Burning Man.
