1001 Arabian Nights: 2008 Moanalua "Menehune" Marching Band & Color Guard (Rainbow)

[coreyaoki]

I only know that the first song is Pyramids of Egypt arranged by Gary P. Gilroy and the last piece is Incantation by Cirque Du Solei or whatever...

[coreyaoki]

Can someone please give me the actual name of the second piece that wass being played? I LOVE that song and would love to get the actual name so I can download it to my ipod..

[band1]

@coreyaoki I'm replying to you w/ my main account, but yeah... I think I remember someone saying it was "Lawrence of Arabia".

Damn, you guys rock!! I am a member of the Punahou marching band and we just plain out suck. I would love to be in your band. Can't wait to see what you guys do next year.

[disneyboy1]

What a kick ass show! Whats the name of your opener?

[Thirty7mm]

I have to admit it was pretty well executed, but the charts were easy and most of them were follow the leaders. Lots of easy yet enjoyable visuals for the audience. A push and the crowd goes wild, why, I don't know. Nice job this year though.

[xgenki808]

well what do you expect can be done when you have a 200+ member band?

[zenotek33]

go moanalua and fuck all yall haters. we worked hard for our shit. class of '99 wuuuuut!! keep up the good work seta.

[typo29]

I'd love to see how you guys would do at a national competition such as BOA nationals in Indiana. You all may make it to finals, but it would be close!...but that's not saying anything negative...there are intense bands out there and you all are def one of them!

[Keisuu808]

Wouldn't you wonder why they weren't invited to BOA, or never gone before then? Unless you just place your name at BOA, then I guess the director doesn't want to go BOA.

XD

[gardner356]

Yeah. You have to join BOA to be able to compete.

[coreyaoki]

Loved this show "1001 Arabian Nights"!!!

Great job Moanalua!*claps*

[daacacio]

This is so amazing. I can't even find words to describe how beautiful the marching band performed this.

[coreyaoki]

Hey Wait didn't u guys copy Aiea High School for this theme show? Cuz I watched Aiea's performace on a DVD from the 2005-2006 marching season!

U did the exact same songs and the singing part where you go la la la la...

[Spikes808]

omg dude. here we go again with this whole "copying" other hawaii bands crap. no one copied anybody. this is like a remake of moanalua's 2000 or 2001 show. just like their 2006 show "Passion of Red" they did that back than. and plus the "incantation" song that you guys probably did is the same as any other band out there who played it, go search for yourself. moanalua's is just a different arrangement. JESUS! HEY WAIT DIDN"T YOU GUYS COPY KAILUA'S UNIFORM?

[Keisuu808]

Not more of this.

-.-

[coreyaoki]

It wasn't ment to be mean, it was put there because I was just wondering!

[coreyaoki]

Wait who copied our uniforms?

But we only got our uniforms in 04 and we customed it...

So wtf?

[Spikes808]

POINT PROVEN. see, don't you hate it when someone tells you that you copied another band. so don't say that we copied anybody, and you claim that they did the exact same songs... DUDE the 1st 3 movements moanalua did this year is all ORIGINAL! only the last song is an altered arrangement. it's all about "you" isn't it. well good luck at mililani, and let me remind you that this wasn't meant to offend anybody, yet your original comment has several replies so it must've offended people.

[coreyaoki]

My comment wasn't put to be criticized! GEEZ US CRIST! I just was wondering!!! P.S umm im not in the Kailua high school band... :(

[Keisuu808]

I'm sorry about that inconvenience, but you should see the push conversation from the menehune classic video. Just assumed and had a headache from the last one. T.T

[dahlocalboy808]

well all i can say is that, from a friend. he told me that the original 4th movement is from quidams "incantation" but was renamed "aladdin's flight" to correlate with the theme (1001 Arabian Nights" so until i see aieas 2005 video, i can conclude that you guys might've played the same song but different arrangements. cuz all the videos i've seen on here have the "vocals" in them. so yeah, you were wondering, and now i'm answering. lol. k shoots :D

[Ahbooshasha]

@coreyaoki I can't believe someone still remembers Aiea's 2005 show. That was a bad year for us.

[k11shagba]

I'm a flute at Kamehameha and I think you guys are good. You have a huge band and great visuals. You music is also good.

[vice223]

dude this was up fast! btw i have to say i loved your show even though i couldnt see it at the stadium cuz we were getting ready to go on. (im a clarinet in the punahou m-band) anyways good job u guys!

[Spikes808]

[dahlocalboy808]

agreed. it seems almost professional. tell me what you use to edit your vids. anyway, you guys were great!
