Its very entertaining and they do move differently than the Hawaiian Hula. Can you say Mutiney. Maybe worth checking out for all the No Cal members.

But a cold Hinano and imagination and your almost there. Also heard some of the good entertainment is at the Doubletree Hotel San Jose the night before.
