They aren't bothering me...So who cares what they do. It is a completely foreign lifestyle to me but I still like them better than lawyers and politicians.
She says we play music, so we're welcome in most any camp. Wel, I'd say that's an understatement. Their great. They should head for New Orleans and play on the streets in the quarters. Loved it.
When I was at the Gila National Forest, New Mexico Gathering back in 1977 there was nothing and I mean NOTHING man made. LSD was not anywhere to be found. There was no need for it. We tripped on peyote buttons and psilocybin mushrooms. What we really tripped on was the energy of the earth and the love that we shared with one another as perfect strangers. The OM circles were incredible. The energy that we shared with one another took us to levels that are hard to explain.
That is so fucking retarded. You were not feeling "LOVE". You were feeling a false sense of belonging and happiness due to the drugs. If you have to do drugs to feel love and peace with the Earth you really need to look inside yourself.
It's worth listening to all the bullshit just to get to the Cadillac-Grainier string band doing incredible blue-grass music in the end. Wow! They are awesome!
I Love kind people everywhere & I don't care what label society and especially haters, put on you. A good hearted person is a good hearted person! End the stereotypical, ignorant judgment towards anything or anyone just because their way isn't your way. Live and let live. Mind your own fucking business! Be concerned with what You are doing..not everybody else. You're opinion of others is Not really important to anyone but You! & finally, If you don't like it or agree with..walk the fuck away! Choose your own path home. & smile anyway:)
Honestly, for those who decide to post negative comments, there are always exceptions. There are always going to be those who give a bad rap for the whole thing. Yes, there are a lot of people who come who are homeless, that's a refuge for them. It's not a lie, you were just unfortunate to interact with the wrong people there.
I went to Rainbow this year.. 2021. It was such a rich spiritual experience. People were praying for the earth, and the sick. We danced around fires, and sang out our woes. I hope it helps heal the people collective, one small reach at a time. 💕
being one who experienced this exact rainbow gathering i agree ... i met people who find different jobs on farms in different countries,back packers ,homeless etc... people who just had a baby brought their child their and also families look at it as a family bonding trip to just go camping.. you have to experience to know the full story
I find it strange that the old man should kvetch about "more tobacco smoking" with a (rolled?) cigarette in his hand, all the while lying next to a pouch of Top AND a pouch of Spirits. Just an observation.
I like the idea of a "party" type event where alcohol isn't the drug of choice for most attendants. All events have assholes who are out to cause harm, so blaming "stupid hippies" for the actions of a few psychos is retarded. So many haters in the comment section! If you don't like hippies, don't come to hippie videos and leave stupid comment. i.e. - get a life outside your mom's basement.
I am a rainbow from the Gila National Forest, New Mexico 1977 gathering. It was sooo different! I feel so sorry for these young people. They are missing the whole concept of the gathering but I don't think its their fault. They need true rainbows around them to share the energy. It is not just absorbed from the earth. It needs to be transformed from the human spirit. Somebody dropped the ball somewhere. Yes 30,000 people is a lot of people. When I was there there were 6000. The spirit itself is so powerful it takes very little effort to be spread. On tiny OM circle goes a long way. Especially with young people who are oozing with energy.
Glinda Thegoodwitch You got that RIGHT im a 68 yr old hippie n things were different in 1969 only good thing now pot in somewhat legal BUT THE COPS STILL F WITH YOU SAD SAD SAD
You all are doing chemicals. The way you describe things it sounds like hell . I mean it is a gathering of young people getting high , no shelter and psychological problems. Seriously missed up
it's not about bear and drugs, it's about peace and love and peace of mind, i don't smoke or drink, but i would like to join the gathering and have fun, live with nature"
The old hippie (who actually has something important to say) gets 45 seconds of footage. The clueless kids get long running multiple interviews. lol That's it in a nutshell.
You can consider yourself that when you aren't excepting each other based on something like that. I can see where others would come from. Having such a wonderful thing and then the drinking and partying taking it over. I saw it at music festivals, no doubt. But I'm just hoping at my first one I wont have to feel the way I do when I go to a festival. It sucks.
i went to the rainbow gathering in ocala florida in 2011 and my experience was full of love, acceptance, drugs. and spirituality. it took a day or two to get acclimated to the family but once i did, it was all about love and respect and music. everyone helped each other, no one was ever in need. i really found some solid peace in the woods. i would love to go back and stay for a week or longer.
The hippy movement was a branch from Bohemianism, which was born in France when a group of artists, poets and actors lived in the slums of the citys near Romani (gypsies) that had traveled there from Bohemia(the Czech Republic). They watched how the Romani disregarded the laws and views of the people, living by their own views and way of life. These people of the arts adopted this way of life and dubbed it as bohemianism(a misconception because the gypsies had just left Bohemia, but Bohemians (Czechs) are western Slavic, Germanic, and Celtic ) It traveled to America and was later practiced by the beginning of the hippy movement. It was altered some, the hippies stood for more of a political and social rebellion, insisting that people should be able to live free and express themselves how they chose. However, after learning the Native Americans would take peyote for a spiritual contact, the hippies began to experiment with drugs. Not long after, the true movement was blemished by fully blown drug addicts that were more about staying stoned, than an actual cause. They yelled peace, love and freedom, yet were a menace to society, most not working and contributing nothing back where they lived , unpaid hospital bills and many today are on welfare because of poor health from a life time of drug abuse, or, sold out from all the claimed and went back to reality. Make no mistake, hippy lifestyle was born from Bohemianism, and Bohemianism is about "Self Expression" NOT Self Destruction" Drugs and alcohol use lead to spiritual chaos. Its typical America to spoil a good movement, its never enough.....
@po3ticTreachery - Robert Calvin Gordon III (guy in the teepee) did actually have alot to say, but I felt the story was about the conflict between the Shawntaseena and the Projects kids and how it was worked out, so I kept focus there. I also wanted to keep the doc at 30 minutes. I will have more from Robert in the bigger doc.
I've never been to a Gathering but would like to check it out. As a first-timer, where would I camp? It seems that there are a lot of different groups within the One. Thanks and Peace :) XO
Yeah, I felt for him. Hope he is ok. His girlfriend seems good for him, the way she looked at him. Hope they both are ok. There music was good. She is a pretty girl. Reminded me of Anna Nicole Smith.
*We the People are all free sovereign independent people. We the People are all equal. The sheeples are ignorant of that. Sheeples requires a master (government) and a shepherd (religion) to lead them. The old paradigm doesn't work. A prosperous, peaceful, healthy way of life awaits those who are awake and aware. These changes requires the People taking control of their own destiny and creating a world that We the People want. Wake Up and Be Aware!!!*
Zapo if you think human beings can all get along without some type of government or law you are delusional. That's just not how human nature works. Thousands of years ago tribes still raided and killed each other for resources. You might be able to get a fairly large group of people to live off the land in small tribes, but you will always have a more organized group that comes along and wants to take their resources and land. Because that small tribal group isn't organized they won't stand a chance against the well organized group. "we the people of the world" will never all agree on what we want, there will always be conflict. The world today, while far from perfect, is WAY less brutal and painful than in the past.

8:00 they're talking about their inability to express themselves. Probably because they lack articulation skills and general command of the English language usually gained through education and reading.
is how I was treated at your age.im 26 and people still act the same way. Most of them only know how to complain about situations they create and pick on others who dont conform to the way "they think it should be"They watch their utopia be consumed by individualism and they cannot admit to themselves that they are the corrupted.If you truly want to be free just be yourself, youll make plenty of freinds.However there is no perfect situation where everybody gets better than mainstream society.
They aren't bothering me...So who cares what they do.
It is a completely foreign lifestyle to me but I still like them better than lawyers and politicians.
@The Unknown Yes...x 100
"It's all about acceptance, and family... HEY, WHO WANTS A FUCKING BLANKET?" XD

Wow, those kids are really talented. I enjoyed that SO much :)

"Hey. Who wants a fucking blanket!?"
I went in 82' and 94'. Time to go again.The kids can learn a thing or two from old hippies.
All I hear is coughing snot phlegm and “like”.
Gross go get a tissue or something. How is that appropriate?
Rod Keays Like. I know. Right?
Lol
If I stumbled into the woods and heard this beautiful sound resonating, I'd be at complete euphoric peace.
She has a lovely voice.

Oh wow. I met him and bitch face about 10 years ago in New Hampshire.
RIP
Hang in there guys,Great things are about to happen and probably already has,as I see the post date was a few years back. Loved the music and singing!

When we really want to hear, and be heard by, someone we love, we do not go rushing into noisy crowds.
Are they passing out blankets infected with small pox ? Like we did to native americans
Robert Calvin Gordon III (the guy in the tipi) can be seen in the documentary - OFF THE GRID: Life on the Mesa, here on youtube.
hey who wants a fucking blanket?
lol too funny
I do. I love blankets.
Thank you for creating this. :)
being one who experienced this exact rainbow gathering i agree ... i met people who find different jobs on farms in different countries,back packers ,homeless etc... people who just had a baby brought their child their and also families look at it as a family bonding trip to just go camping.. you have to experience to know the full story
good video, great 3 piece band at the end, also enjoyed what they had to say
I find it strange that the old man should kvetch about "more tobacco smoking" with a (rolled?) cigarette in his hand, all the while lying next to a pouch of Top AND a pouch of Spirits. Just an observation.
Great tune at the end!!!!! Nice job guys, lovin ya...

I remember the fella at the beginning of the video having a seizure on the path as I walked up to him during a gathering.
Is this a rainbow gathering or low life street kids talking about prison politics ?

My grandfather immigrated from Bohemia. That makes me Bohemian, at least a quarter anyway.
Agreed,but still art
why do hippies allways have smoker Flem ....cigarette voice

I love that couple

Yeah, I felt for him. Hope he is ok. His girlfriend seems good for him, the way she looked at him. Hope they both are ok. There music was good. She is a pretty girl. Reminded me of Anna Nicole Smith.
He died.
