"Aloha
Sam Makia officiates at this special luau which initiated the “Malia” Polynesian Room’s performances of authentic Hawaiian music, songs, hula dancers, war chants, knife dance, fire dance… in fact, most of the rituals you’d find on one of those beautiful Polynesian islands.
Guests became natives… some women arrived in ti-leaf or pa-u skirts; most guests wore colorful kiheis and malos. Gourmet Bill Green provided the final touch to the luau with an array of exotic Polynesian goodies.
The mikes and recording equipment had to be strategically placed so that Sam Makia and his Islanders could freely mingle with the hula girls, guests and performers in a dimly lit room. The guests loved it. They were being transported to paradise. Steel guitars and ukuleles magically strummed and hummed. Exuberant guests began to sway and hum so that the “Malia” room became exotic Hawaii.
The vivaciousness of this luau is authentically captured in the TIFTON LIVE SOUND recording. You will visualize the hula girls, vibrate to the pulsating beat of the “War Chant”, squirm to the knife dance and lose your heart “Beyond the Reef”.
