What are the details concerning the rainbow family? Do these people travel and live together?
Don't they throw a festival once a year?

Yeah the annual is going to be in Wyoming this year, I'm prolly going...went to the one in Northern Utah a few years back and it was pretty cool, a whole bunch of people running around out in the woods, some of them nekkid and a TON of drum circles.

Wasn't it in Ocala two years back?
If one wanted to join the rainbow people, how would they go about doing that?

No personal experience, but i'v been interested in them for awhile, and wish to attend some of their gatherings. But when i met, and was hanging out with my hobo/streetkid/gutterpunk friends, they didn't call themselves rainbow family, but said they fallowed the gatherings sometimes, and when i asked what the contingent was "hippies, or your people" they said that a their wasn't that much of a difference these days.
I found that interesting, and would like to see how accurate that is, because some of these people were far from hippies.

I lived in Asheville for a while and the very day I was moving out, my roommate's friend's friend (who used to live with the family) was visiting that day.
I didn't get to speak to him long, but he made the group sound very interesting. He was given the name Ocean by the group and had used DMT around 10 times with them. It seemed like such a peaceful life the way he described it. Very chill dude as well.

Rainbow in Ocala Florida is bad news, for the most part.
Ocala Rainbow is said to be the worst around, for the most part.
Florida hippies are shwagg, for the most part.

I never experienced the Ocala gathering personally... well I was supposed to but that's when I wound up in marion county jail But I heard lots and lots of stories about ocala "rainbows"... very very few of them were good. Lots of sketchy stuff going on inside that national forest from the sounds of it.. including violent bums living there year round mixed in with the crowd. Not that you couldn't have a good time it just doesn't have the 'vibe' or something. Stay as far away from Florida as possible is my advice well maybe not Suwanee.... but stay away from the middle of that state its cursed

Oh yeah there were tons of shady fucks, but that doesn't phase me really, lots of hot chicks, and cool people.
