- Description: Some very spirited solo performances were put up by individuals who dashed out of a line to take up a new song, each replacing the last man. The first song indicated that the hero of the song had a case to bring. The second, that he should be caught. The third one that he should be held, and so on. Each of the many singers and dancers liked to come out into the ring, shout his individual cries and introduce his own song. The occassional interpolation of a horn was made by blowing through an pld rubber bulb type motor-cycle horn. Mgibo pre-initiation dance with sticks.
