Maybe they were hungry and wanted to speed things along? Jokes

at that pow-wow?
Or even the head man singer or head gourd dance singer?
They would have been able to answer you on the spot.

Hmmm...this is a very good question you propose here. I am certainly not someone who could answer your question from 1st hand knowledge, but I wonder if the folks in the "varsity seats" knew the song you are referring to. I'm also assuming that Elders would/did approach that individual (or even the drum) afterwards at some point. I will say in my experience that sometimes people don't always like to make a scene. So, although you did not see anyone speak about that is not to say that it did not happen.

Obviously, I was not there, so I can not even begin to offer an explanation. But, I will say that as long as we are here on this Earth, we will always have something to learn.

Suthern,

I think maybe some singers like myself don't feel the "supper song" is really a legit song to include in gourd dancing. It has only come into being in the last 3 years.
