kingbunky 3 #1 August 7, 2003 anyone else see their show? the cirque de soleil thread remnded me of it. while on my road trip/vacation the last two weeks, i caught their show at the luxor in vegas, and then on the way home caught the 'complex' tour in milwaukee. i had previously seen the show in boston, the vegas show was mostly the same, but with the bigger theatre they brought out some different instruments and did a cool laser show bit. the complex tour was by far the coolest concert i have ever been to. tracy bonham (sp?) opened. she was quite folky, not my cup of tea, but good anyway. she opened with a version of 'black dog' on the violin. next up was venus hum, quite techno. again, pretty good but not my fave music. put them with the bluemen though and wow! the sho closed with them doing 'teenage wasteland'. way cool!"Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

BlueEyedMonster 0 #4 August 8, 2003 Yeah, I met them when I was a kid. They wanted to be musicians. I wanted to be a superhero. I guess they put their blue powers to good use too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumpster 0 #13 August 8, 2003 I saw the show in Chicago about three years ago - I've been wanting to go see it again - You just can't explain it - The only people you can talk to about it are folks that have seen it - Much like skydiving!

Vallerina 2 #14 August 8, 2003 I saw Blue Man Group here in Chicago last Saturday. We all loved it!!! You'll never see another show so creative by mixing together percussion, art and humor! An easily amused person really liked talking to strangers through the pipes....I think that was their favorite part of the show! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txblondie 0 #15 August 8, 2003 I've wanted to see them for a long time and never had the chance. I'm too broke to travel, and their tour has never come to Texas that I've found... But given the chance, I'd go in a heartbeat. Seriously, I always enjoyed the Pentium commercials they did; I can only imagine a concert!!! ***************************************** Blondes do have more fun!

Shotgun 1 #19 August 8, 2003 Yeah, I saw their show at the Luxor in Vegas a couple of years ago - it was really cool! Their concert sounds pretty neat! Would love to hear their version of "Teenage Wasteland"! And actually I'd love to hear Tracy Bonham's version of "Black Dog" too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites kingbunky 3 #20 August 8, 2003 yup, the paper thing was at the end of the boston and vegas shows... not at the complex concert though. for the guitar bit in teenage wasteland, they had a grand piano, top removed, leaning up against something and one of the blue guys played it by beating on the strings with a 4 foot long drumstick with a softball sized ball at the end. too cool!"Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."
