The green and red of Mayo. I can see it still. The ocean kisses Ireland and the waves caress the shore. The feeling it came over me. Will stay forever more.
I wanted to join the hippies but they said it was too young 6 years old, and they also did not like my kind of hard-rocking music, looking back on my great life I realised that I was the lucky one, I got to see the most brilliant bands and the cream of the crop Thin Lizzy & Rory Gallagher also of many of the other great bands on the 1970 and 80, If I joined the hippies I would not have got to see those great bands and I would have missed so much. Listing to what those very fine lady complain about those hippies, I and shocked, that people could just a little frightened and may be too posh, I am sure they changed minds laters, I say leave the hippies alone, You will never get a hippy going to war to brutally invade another country and kill total strangers, I hope those hippies won and they are still around and living the good life and not causing and worries or troubles to the very fine people of Co Mayo. My advice to that lady is show a little kindness to those Hippies and you will please God and Mayo will go win the Sam this year
They left the commune after about 2 years due to a fire. The island was owned by John Lennon of the Beatles and he allowed the Diggers as they were known to squat on it. The organiser seen in this video (Sid Rawle) ended up in another commune in Wales and later some other ones.
The fire was a bit of an excuse , I think. After all they could knock up a teepee in ten minutes. A few Atlantic storms saw them off. That and the local reaction
English taking over just like in the Isles of Scotland buying up all the cottages for their holiday homes, leaving villages deserted during the winter months! Most likely they came from middle class english families and wanted to be shocking to their parents. And also not wanting technology, so why are they using a ‘motor’ boat? I’m sure rowing would be more non invasive…
The guy being interviewed is English. We don't know where the others are from as they have not spoken. What's your problem anyhow? Do you want to ethnically select Hippies?

Bollocks James, no one stopped you from going to the Island nor adoring your rock gods.
I wonder who sound tracked this piece with Roger Whittaker. Would never have associated old Roger with hippies.
It's the lyrics
Thanks! I couldn't place the voice! What a smooth crooner!
That was too funny..I was rooting for the hippies but they were no match for an Irish mammy once the mind is made up😂
Why was she objecting to them? They're doing their own thing with no impact on her.. 🤦♂️
I wouldn't want a bunch of druggies throwing a party in my town
they're junkies
@@ferdia748 Do you know what that even means?
@@johnnyfeen1347 yea
A trip to a barber shop would have cured what ailed them.
That old biddy thought she was better than everybody else.
The poor woman had no idea what was coming down the pike when Phil Lynott was the only person of colour on the island that people were aware of.
Roger whitaker..
Was a follow up story ever filmed? Wonder how this ended, assuming the hippies eventually failed.

Was that lad a presenter on Bosco after this?
this heartless vicious woman make me mad 😡
I wonder how tepees stood up to the overwhelming West wind?
Sid Rawle is the hippy
Why are they always English? Although from what I heard, Westport would love to see English hippies than what they're getting now

It's flooded
It's common for people from the UK to come to Ireland to visit. Especially how I have relatives there to.
When your too lazy for work and take it to the extreme you find out a job ain't so bad.
This guy wearing animal skins is disgusting. He should be ashamed of himself and do no harm to animals.
😂 they're dead though..
trollin trollin trollin, keep that troll a rollin
We didn't get to the top of the food chain by eating carrots now father.
