Why so negative? A LOT of research and time went into this performance. I did all my research with my whanau, and two very prominent Maori figures in this country. Do not speak of my tupuna in such a way. I take this comment personally. We have performed in many places around the world, and you are the only one to show so much distaste. A bit of support to better it would have sat better, sadly you didn't choose that path. Ka Kite.
What, was that your tupuna performing this? I wasnt even talking about your tupuna, obviiosuly you cant understand what I wrote in Maori. It means, "This is belittling my ansetors" wasnt talking about you tupuna.
Ok I took another look at the video with a different hat on and see this is contempory art. So if it was apporved by the elders I guess its ok then. So I take back my ignorrence from the previous comment. Sorry for the personal attack.
No Problem, dont take what I said to heart, as someone to needs take our Maori culture into concept where others can enjoy it too. Keep doing what you doing, it is great.
awesome performance keep it up, when are you playing in christchurch next.

Kia Ora Wiremu.
Firsly I apologise for MY ignorance. I did misread the translation.
As you say, this is contemporary, and we were only trying to share.
All the best for your future projects, share the love.
