My name is Rory Larkey I usually go by Rory without the added Larkey. I have had some nick names such as "Shaggy", "Rero", "Orky". I don't know how these names came to be but they came and went except the one that my father gave me. Rory Jay Larkey

I have been feeling like a hippie or at least wanted to be like a hippie ever since I was at my first Grateful Dead show in 1992.
I had never even seen a hippie before then.
These kids were cool. Non agro people was something I had ever seen before.
It seemed as if after that day , my entire whole towns younger generation turned hippie.
It was like a new style that just came in.
Pushing the Pearl Jam grunge look right out of the top of what's cool for the stoner to wear. LOL!

Then on to other bands such as Phish and String Cheese Incident.

Bonnaroo was fun the first and 2nd years.
That's when I was there.

My first Rainbow Gathering was in 1998 Arizona. Funny how my second Rainbow Gathering wasn't until 2008, when I brought my wife Sara and daughter Marianna to there first Rainbow Gathering.

2009 Rainbow Gathering happens to be Marianna's 2nd Rainbow Gathering and she is only 2 years old.

I plan to attend many more peaceful hippie events.
I plan to help people seek peace on earth by using my website as a reference place. Look at my peaceful hippie forum to find and discuss topics relating to your freedoms and rights.
