Blue Man Group

As my Avatar would indicate, I am quite the fan of Blue Man Group.
I went to Atlanta a few weeks back to see them. I think it was my 7th show. Maybe 8th ??
It was GREAT! I had 3rd row seats. About 15 feet from the stage.

They are on the road through next summer.
If you even think you might enjoy it, you owe it to yourself to go.
You can get all the skinny at their web site.

As a side note, I'll be attending my 3rd Trans Siberian Orchestra show in a few weeks.
They are great also.

We've never been to a Blue Man Group show (shame on us!) but the wife and I on occasion do drag out 'The Complex Rock Tour Live' DVD from '03 and let 'er rip on the home system ... man these guys are a trip. I'd love to seem them live and don't know why we haven't yet, thanks Brian.

How many "groups" do they have? Do they not have a running show in Vegas? I know that the guys that started the group were there and that they rotated the member and that there were three different "groups". I do want to see them and I my just take a trip up to Vegas.

I think there is still a Blue Man here in Vegas. My wife and I went two years ago, and laughed our bottoms off. Good show!

I want to go see them at some point, they need to come to Dallas.

That Christmas lights video is awesome. I remember when that first came out there was a thing in an email with it about the guy, he has a degree in electrical engineering I believe. There was also a big thing in that town where people claimed it was distracting and wanted it shut down, but it stayed up.
