Ummm, I've done both in front of audiences. The Maori war dance sorta involuntarily (at an exhibition in a Chicago Museum, as little sis "volunteered" me -- as I tried to shrink into the floor from the seats set up in the main exhibition hall, where the stage was set up, she was jumping up and down pointing at me! Actually, I think I did a pretty good imitation of a Maori war dance. The sticking out of your tongue part was a little weird, I must admit that, but I got the spear handling part right! (I did a little Wagner, back in the day! (Just call me BrunHilda -- or as Steve Martin called on SNL, BroomHilda -- hee, hee *TheodoricOfYork*))
