One Tin Soldier has its own Domain Name

This past few days Cephas and I made a decision to buy domain names for all existing blogspot blogs. We chose .info because of the price obviously and as a personal theme. Many of our blogs are now .info so we have an entire grouping that follows this theme. The subject matter will remain the same.

We chose a new template but I am not sure that we'll keep it. I'll spend a little time surfing to find a better one. If I find one you will see this blog's face change. I'm excited about the stories that will be posted here. At One Tin Soldier's inception, we reported actual events at rainbow gatherings, Wyoming in 2008 particularly. Last year, we didn't really post the events but you will see updates and flashbacks in the coming months.

Since I am compiling stories from archives and first hand interviews, I decided to outline a coming book on rainbowfamily history. Be sure to visit the new blog by that name, but be patient until I can post some content there.

Enjoy the stories and videos and be sure to leave a comment to tell us what you think about the facelift.

By the Rivers of Babylon

This is one of my favorite songs that I relate to the annual gathering of the tribes of the rainbow family of living light.

The version in the video above is supposed to be the original. There are a few others that I would like to share with you.



and yet another version...



I am really hoping to find a video produced at a rainbow gathering if one exists. I posted a request on agr at this link so I hope it produces a response.

A couple friends of mine sing this song on a regular basis at rainbow gatherings. Marty Heartsong wanders around in his rainbow tam and guitar visiting campfires at rainbow gatherings. Marty usually sings this song. In fact, he has made an audio recording of it which I don't have with me to upload. When I see him, I will ask for a new copy to upload here for your enjoyment. Usually, Marty Heartsong joins in a duet with Gary of Rainbowcrystalkitchen for the most beautiful rendition of this song rainbow style. I would love to record them singing it together.

Please email themidnightwriter1@gmail.com if you have a video version of the Rivers of Babylon.

Thank you and rainbow love. It's almost time to go home again.
