Longing for the Polynesian Luau :(

[NEVERENOUGHWDW]

Does anyone feel like I do? I REALLY miss the Polynesian Luau.....all the authentic music they played for the evening....that lovely lady that used to be the m.c., the dancers & musicians for the entire evening (not the 5 minutes they dance now). I do realize things have to change at WDW but it still upsets me that the Polynesian Luau is gone.
I have so many wonderful memories of that show with my family and always dreamed of being there with my family....

When did they change it?

I've been to the original version, and I miss it, too. I think they may have modernized it to make it more kid-friendly...but should have left it alone. Kids are still bored, and almost everything else was already geared towards kids anyway. Ah well.

Binkrin I not sre how many years ago it was changed...I would guess at least 4 years ago. It used to be a terrific show. Great for couples and families now it a kid friendly show.

Oh darn, I guess I will never know what I'm missing! How did you all plan your day at the poly, assuming you were there less than 3 days?

I gotta chime in here and agree too. We loved listening to all the old Hawaiian songs. That's what makes a luau for us along with the wonderful dancing. Bring back the old Hawaiian songs...PLEASE.
