(i’ll be a bit sad if it’s the case as I personally hope they won’t deviate too much from the traditional form).Reply Marcos Detourist saysJanuary 13, 2015 at 12:35 pmThis is only the opening salvo performances, James. I noticed that during the Pamukaw and Opening Salvo, the tribes are more liberal in their performances. They may dress up in Naruto costumes and such to get people excited and “hide” their costume and choreography for the final event.Reply
