i've never been, but i'd assume you should expect the same basic thing as, oh lets say burning man.


but there's probably more open nudity

I went on the last night a couple years back... I would recommend staying inside the gathering at all times if influenced... there were cops lurking in teams right down the road on our way back that night (my friends couldn't camp with me so we left around 11:00)..
Otherwise it was awesome :awesome: Amazing goods for sale everywhere :wink:, big camp fires, people trippin' balls in the drum circle and what not :tongue:

They're :feelsgoodman: I've never been to the USA ones though.

People can be REALLY rude cunts about alcohol though :crankey:

I tend to bring a lot of unique candy/soda/chocolate to share around or exchange because I can't make anything of quality.

So uh.... Are these things invite only? Or do you just know someone, who knew someone, etc.? How do I get there is what I'm asking...

I'm pretty sure they're still open, I didn't need an invitation it was on their web page :tongue:


It shifts around a lot but a google search should help you learn a little bit about what its about :smile2:
I don't think they've set up the location for this years yet.

The only story I have about the rainbow gathering is actually my dads story. One time him and his friends were dirt bikin in PA and they came across :fasted:. Well they stopped to ask the dood where he came from cuz there in the middle of the woods... Turns out he was with the nearby rainbow gathering. My dad said the first thing the guy said to them was "welcome home brothers" LAWL.

I hope you don't plan on drinking there; self-righteous ultra hippies will try to confiscate your booze.

I have mixed opinions about Gatherings... I've been to a few over my years.... while I think the concept of it is cool, I love camping and being around a lot of new folks, and the National Forests I've been to were fuckin' awesome, there is that whole pretentious vibe that hangs about unfortunately.

There is some nudity there, but it's not like 'woah, that sexy gal is getting erotic over there', it's more like 'mom feeding her baby nudity so you're a misogynistic, perverted bastard for trying to sneak a peek.'

Do yourself a favor and stay away from A-camp too... I lived on the streets for a while, and was street smart and tough back then, and some of those people there you'll just be no match for.  I was in Utah, Wasatch Gathering, drinking vodka and moonshine with Ex-convicts, FTRA (Train Hoppers) and they were the most hill billy degenerates I've ever laid eyes on and they WILL try to kill you if you slip up.

Overall, I'd say Gatherings are okay in my opinion, at least checking it out for yourself some time, you'll meet some cool cats.

I don't care who you are. I always FINISH my beers. NO-ONE will or can stop that. Many people have tried, many people have failed.

No one has ever successfully removed a beer from my clutches without my consent.

A bartender tried to take my beer once at closing time, and I said "Ma'am, I am sorry, but there's only two ways I'm leaving here, after I finish my beer, or in handcuffs".

And she said 'whatever' and left me alone.

I've honestly never been to either....



But from stories of people that have, and what I've gathered, they seem like two completely different atmospheres. Though, at the same time, they do have a lot of similarities. But I can see how someone would think Burning Man and the Rainbow gatherings are alike...







I would like to make it to a Rainbow gathering at one point. Definitely something I would be down to be part of...Just kinda sketched at how much I hear about law enforcement being present. As all of the camp outs and gatherings I usually attend don't have any sort of police presence, everything is open and with out fear.

Yeah thats happened to me too. They usually leave you alone when you tell them straight up: NO. I'm gonna finish my drink.

I can't imagine a group of hippies successfully convincing me to hand over my beer. I doubt a buncha skinny vegan hippies could TAKE my beer either.

LOL hippies

They won't take your beer, they'll direct you to A-camp with the other drinkers.

A-camp can suck a dick.

It was a really strange feeling having psychedelic/cannabis users trying to prohibit me from drinking a beer. In the end I just drank them in my tent before bed :shrug:

Very douchebag move.

it's understandable when you realize that 90% of the people drinking alcohol at rainbow gatherings are belligerent douches most of the time, at least that keeps them in one place :shrug:

Belligerent douches usually get whats coming to them.

In the end the universe tends to unfold as it should.
