Blue Men

Friday night, I attended the Blue Man Group show at the Fargodome. I've seen their show at the Luxor in Las Vegas 5 times (yes, it was the same exact show each time, but I took different visiting family members and friends each time just to watch their reactions).

I was looking forward to seeing their "How to be a MegaStar" show. While some elements were similar to the Vegas show, the overall concept is much different and the songs are different. I should clarify: Blue Man is NOT a rock concert. The theme of the show is rock concert, but they are not a band in the traditional sense. It's a combination of mime, comedy, music, and art. There's nothing else like it. I don't think many people here "got it" though. There's nothing worse than sitting at a great show with a bum crowd that refuses to participate. Blue Man is very much an audience participation show.
