I've been watching the Merrie Monarch for at least ten years now. This [THE] best I've seen. I don't understand all lyrics of the music and the chanting, but they sound very expressive. The dancing is graceful and synchronized. Plus...the men are attractive, especially the one at 2:18.
I just came from Oahu. But anyhow, I'm not Hawaiian and I don't know how they judge the dances. I watched the other Kane group this group just by watching them gave me goose bumps and very different from the others. No wonder they won =) GREAT JOB!!!
Is there any reason I don't see any clips of this wonderful group at the 2008 and 2009 Merrie Monarch? Did they dissolve? I surely hope not...they were the best, in my opinion. Please post more recent clips of this group if you have them. Thank you very much.

What an inspiring and beautiful celebration of a beautiful culture. Keep up the great work. And my your children's children enjoy this culture.'
