The first thing I can recall interesting me in Bali is when Andrew Weil played a tape of Kacak (pronounced Kachak) back in 1978 or so. When Elin and I stayed her for two months with one year old Clay back in 92, we heard it three times outdoors outside of Ubud. I don't recall seats. Pretty rustic and lots of men chanting. Now I only hear it if there's a guest. The one in Uluwatu atop a cliff at the south end of Bali at sunset is my favorite. Here's a nice video on it - with a firedance.
