guests desperate for Merrie Monarch tickets

[Markie]

Does anyone have Merrie Monarch tickets you won't be using? We have two guests from Wisconsin hoping to get some. THANKS!!!

The words "desperate" and "Merrie Monarch" don't go together that well. I hope your guests get their tickets, but I think of Merrie Monarch as a sort of Zen experience, like love: It comes from the most unexpected places and when you pursue it, it sometimes runs away and when you don't, it comes to you as quietly as the squeeze of a hand in a prayer circle. In the meantime, there is hula all around us. I hope your guests take home a dance in their hearts that is a moving prayer to the mountain, the sea, the coconut tree, to the sun, and to the moon as it shines on the water.

BTW: Huge kudos to Kelena & the Puna Mens Chorus.... awesome! (as was the night.... just amazing!) One of the great things about being here right now, world class hula without tickets to the competition...

Carey I called you and texted you and looked for you! Where WERE you? LOL! We were in Row 8 on the floor...center. Tonight WAS great. Kelena was so handsome and the PMC sounded fantastic! I am so proud of you, Kelena! The PMC was right behind the Royal Court - nice.

I'm not as into Auana or Miss Aloha as I am Kahiko. The group from Easter Island was cool and I really had fun with the Tahitian group...WOW, right?! Lookin' forward to Friday night with my friend, Carey at Kahiko night! H-U-L-A Bay-bay!!

Left side of the stage, front row N, right at the ramp - was in line next to Stan Kaina & just kinda went with the flow....( I thought I had charged the phone....but NOOOOOO! - guess ya gotta put the plug in for the juice to flow!) It charged all night... so should be good for Friday -

As the Tahitian group 'sailed' in from the far corners, I was in heaven.... not bad for a free night! & the group from Japan.... can't even image the logistics for bringing that size group here! & the audience did appreciate (loved the response to the older & younger performers for all of the halaus, ... what a thrill!)

Going tonight through Sat. in front row side again, yea!!!
