    The arsonist of Black Rock City

    Paul Addis, the man accused of setting Burning Man's wooden statue aflame four days before it was supposed to go up in smoke, appears here in a mugshot for the ages. Scott Beale of Laughing Squid has details on Addis in his comprehensive post on the incident, including this fascinating tidbit: Addis portays Hunter S. Thompson in the one-man show "Gonzo." His arrest may put a crimp in plans to bring the show to the West Coast later this year. A photo of Addis on stage, after the jump.
