1. I saw the show in Vegas
It was a lot better than I anticipated.
I really enjoyed it, but it is pretty pricey.

3. I saw them in New York
As someone who studies musical instruments in the lab, I can say that they have the most imaginative musical instruments I have ever seen or heard. Definitely must see.

4. I was front row for them in NYC several years ago!
They are amazing! I still have a t-shirt with a blue face-print on it!:-)

But try to see them in a small venue. They did some large venues recently, and I just don't think the show could be nearly as good that way.

5. They are on Directv this month...
Every month, directv has a freeview event, and this month, Blue Man Group is one of them. If you have directv, check weekend evenings, on Channel 103. I had noticed they were on, but didn't have much interest. With the recommendations, I might have to give them a watch. Thanks for the suggestion...Kevin.

7. Saw them in Vegas.
The music is great and the experience is good except for the

really bullshit thing of rolling toilet paper over the heads of the audience where the audience behind me were a bunch of drunk assholes who passed on piss and other crap in their "pass down."

8. Blue Man ROCKS!
I loved their Vegas show! I almost got selected to go up on stage too. One of the blues was walking through the aisles during the break before the second volunteer from the audience, and walked right up to me staring at me, then suddenly walked off. Really weird...
Their show is awesome. Go if you have the chance. You'll remember it for a long time.

9. Do you mean "The Complex" tour DVD?
Awesome music from BMG. One of my favorite DVDs. I love the opening, it's very cool. AND my now-favorite band, Venus Hum, help perform a rockin' cover of "I Feel Love."

I've never seen their stage show, but I understand it's quite different than the rock concert show of "The Complex."
