Merrie Monarch, Kahiko night

k so i went to Kahiko night last nite...first...i'd like to say...it was LONG!!!was good tho!!somethings --didn't have too many kane dancers, my wahine cousins kept telling me that! haha....-wardrobe malfunctions - gotta work on that...or not....hahak now about the hula i seen...-in my opinion, chanting is becoming a 1 style thing...only 1 technique and way to chant nowdays....they sounded the same...there was a few halau who's chants sounded different but only a few...and nowdays, we're really holding the last note of the line in almost every line....he mea hawai'i ia?? aole pela na mea o ku'u lohe 'ana ma ka lipine...-had some nice stuff too tho....had a wahine halau doing ku'i steps...my first time i seen that...gotta ask the experts on their opinions on that...was for a Pele song...was interesting...Pele historically and politically was a group that was different, so my inital thoughts was that it could be acceptable....of course, given that i dont dance hula and have limited knowledge in hula, i'd have to pass judgement...-was good overall...just the chanting is becoming something in its own category...i dont even know what to say about some of the chanting i seen last nite...couple quotes i had when making jokes for a few of the things that looked funny to me:"broadway""if your chin leads the movement, somethings wrong""potogee chanters" (hands moving like a potogee who talks with their hands)"its a musical play!""militaryish"
