Imagine the scene. A thousand school buses scattered across a wide swath of the Arizona desert. Only these are not junked wrecks, oh no no no, they are homes. Repurposed homes on wheels. Whose owners come together to celebrate a nomadic lifestyle. To share stories, offer a helping hand, and to enjoy ten days of camaraderie.
Well, that’s what we thought …

Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken
There are no rulebooks. We each get to choose our own hero's journey. But there is commonality in our quests for personal happiness, and it's in those beliefs that we come together here.
Me personally? I live in a bus (for now). My thing is exploring life like a nomad. Travel, adventure, and wonder. (Yea, I'm a little bit ADHD and I kinda need constant stimulation).
Welcome to The Pirate Wanderer! I'm Rick, your host and life-guide. It's so nice to meet you ... and I can't wait to see what great things we can do together.

You LOOK old enough to actually have attended the original 1969 Woodstock event but since I did I do have to hand it to you.....I personally could not deal with the disrespect at current Skoolipaloozi events. I find them very fake and a pretend event for young'uns trying to be what they are not. I am sure some of them are following their heart which is great. I am always in the area every year but would not subject myself to attending. Good video.

@Nomad_gps 8 месяцев назад

Damn, you just said this pirate looks ~15 years older than he is... Kinda rude. I was eleven years old in '69... This pirate is 4 years younger than me. I'm just saying.... damn.

It was a huge learning moment for many, and one lovely human went and sat with the perpetual music machine and asked "Why?"-- his answer was surprisingly eye opening and mental health was a part of it, but kudos to her for trying to figure him out. We will certainly attend again, every learning minute was worth it.

@georgeritmeester4736 8 месяцев назад

Yes, destroying everybody's mental health does seem to be part of it.

I enjoyed your content. I respect your decision to move on. I think we think big to find solutions as individuals, but forget how small our action needs to be to find resolution as a group. This situation troubled me, so I ended up playing this scenario in my head. If people gathered at the offending camp chairs in hand without confrontation for an hour engaging with each other and the offenders if they chose... successful conflict resolution is the bane of humanity. People are really like the weather, though we all seem to see each other like a snapshot of the moment.

@georgeritmeester4736 8 месяцев назад

A small problem. When you're hanging out there, you're just a few feet from the guy with a gun, who - apparently - is a friend of the art bus sociopath.

It's a festival there's going to be music there's going to be party! Seriously... Go enjoy a couple of days to the fullest and leave... 🤷🏻‍♂️ I'll be tired of people music or not within few days anyway. That's why this lifestyle works for me 🙄 I'm not anti social but I've learned the more you stay around people the more chances of dealing with those people's problems increase! 😂 From loud music to hearing about losing a pet 10 years ago!

Dug your video. I no can find a JOIN button. I wasn't going to JOIN, but if I did want to...well, you get the point. I will hit the SUBSCRIBE button, though. Also, I don't start fights, but I tend to finish them. Unfortunately, that is highly impractical in today's disintegration of society. I sincerely hope I can follow your lead and employ turning the key and disengaging the parking brake form of conflict resolution. (Never mind the JOIN button thing. I see it materializes once the SUBSCRIBE button is pushed.)

@aaronrobertson8598 8 месяцев назад

The loud on and off music was super annoying, I only got fractions of sleep and left after 2 nights. I get the main party area but that guy doing it to piss everyone off is a giant piece of 💩

I NEVER comment on videos but I MUST declare this to be -if not the - one of the - BEST videos ever posted on youtube!!!

@rickhiggins 7 месяцев назад

Ummm, thanks! (And where do I send the fee for this comment? LOL!)

@Sick_Bastard71 8 месяцев назад

If I was there you and I would have either gotten arrested or gotten rid of the loud music 😂❤

Wow, I always thought of these as a peace loving utopia. But I guess everything that we touch gets somehow messed up. Great video.

@Nomad_gps 8 месяцев назад

Wow….. Wow….Wow… great video. I watched this from my Rig in the desert, (near Big River Ca.) at ~6:30 this Monday Jan.22, 23… great production. Great content. I'm a new fan and subscriber. One of the best produced YT videos ever. Thanks.

Skooliepalooza has turned into an absolute shit show.

@rickhiggins 8 месяцев назад

Yes and no. The endless battle between the two sides over who owns a name and the rights to a spot on public land is absurd. But the majority of the people are wonderful, so I suppose it's what you can put up with. Nikki and I are kinda split. I'm not excited about a return, but she sees the wonderfulness.

@nursynikki Месяц назад

I just read your comment! I'm such a fan of you guys. I've followed along from bus to van, to baby! ❤

We didn't make it this year. Tbh the all night rave is beyond annoying. That same person did the same thing last year, rave all night at the entrance. Thanks for your video. What's the name of the book bus?

@nursynikki Месяц назад

I love all the interviews

I’m currently a van-dweller; but can appreciate the skoolie crowd. However, who needs BS drama - the music playing culprit needs some self-reflection that the World doesn’t revolve around them. As far as the copyright issues you mentioned between the two groups, that’s a tough one. Money is tight for many folks and if that income stream gets compromised due to “theft” really - I can understand the angst. But, fight back the legal way not thru gorilla warfare. Good video, haven’t caught your channel before. Will follow for future content…

You must have voted for Biden…..how’s that working out for ya?

@rickhiggins 7 месяцев назад

Quite well actually. Thanks for asking.

@HotrodsMotorcycling 8 месяцев назад

Nice video until the Trump comment, maybe try and keep politics out of your videos. That comment, your rainbow crocks and slow motion rainbow flag just showed how liberal you are.

@rickhiggins 8 месяцев назад

Thank you.
