Thanks for posting this! I was at the gathering in Ocala florida in 92, it was a life changing experience for a 22 year old. I hope to see the rainbow again.

Peace & Jesus Loves You!

This is a very inspiring video. Long live the Rainbow Gypsies!

[JivaFalcon]

Jiva is a theater director who wrote the music and lyrics to The Battle at Landes after being inspired by the true story she read in Konrad Bercovivi's "The History of the Gypsies." France had banned Gypsies, but rather than fighting the soldiers they danced with them, and the soldiers actually defected from the army!The concept that war can be stopped with love rather than reciprocating hatred is the point, and is as poignant today as it was in 1842!

They are entertainers.

The point being is that "so many" people of Rainbow carry a "lot" of the concepts and ways of life the Rroma have sufferd for so long to preserve and keep alive. If they proclaim to love us as we love you,them; why not actually get to know the actual "race" and the very fair (if you learn about them) "customs" we ask everyone including ourselves to uphold for "our" spiritual reasons. Honer thier own "present day" movement out of a thousand years of discrimination, persecution and stereo typing.

What is real is the SPIRIT. Emulation is the highest form of flattery.Rom, India, America...it does not matter. What the man does is give joy, bring happiness and entertain. He is a true entertainer and it is all about FUN. Peace and Love from within

Listen, This is a two parter; I love Rainbow brother and sisters, to me we all are rainbow brothers and sisters and If you knew my road I left the kumpania to intergrate with the rainbow families of all nations. I love Diego we have sang, danced and prayed together. The reason I came to this site and wrote this way is because when I went to him as friend and mentioned it, he blew me off as I have noticed by only a few of my rainbow family. And pretty much I was kina made to feel like S&%T.

hmm stealing music from "real Roma"? wouldnt that make them "real gyspies" then.....

[Sumakuni]

hmmm, "wow" are you racist for a hippi person

I wish to take your racist comment and place it on t.v so the world to see. How much you need to read a book is astounding. beautiful hippi person only the minority of Rroma steal and a minority of that who do it for greed and not nessesity. Stealing does not make you a real Rroma and Gypsy was given to us as a derogitory name from the Egyptions. We do not call ourselves Gypsies (gyp-see?)I could comment more, no need to argue. The man is a fake.

They steal music from real Roma

[circledance013]

umm, he is Rom...

[Sumakuni]

No sweety he is not. I know him, the girl and the troop of that time, they have not one drop of Rroma in them. I can prove it, would rather not but could. I was born and raised within the Kumpania of the tachey Rroma, the real roma. Now we just gave him a few more words to steal. I would not have cared but I am rainbow sister too and I just seen this guy do to much that generates stereo types, "murders" our musica and steals bread out of our mouths, he is in for a rude awakening.
