Their here in Vegas at the Luxor! Completly awesome! Never seen anything like it before in the world. Paid 140 bucks for 2 tickets and it was worth twice the price, I could never explain it but I cant imagine anyone not liking it!!! Best show I’ve ever seen hands down. [http://www.blueman.com](http://www.blueman.com) has anyone else ever seen it? They started in New York, then Chicago, now there in Vegas. If youve seen it tell me what you think. ---

I’ve heard so much about it but didn’t get a chance last time I was in New York to try and find out if it was still playing, etc. Damn, I’m jealous… 😃 * * * The Sleeper has AWAKEN! ---

You wanna hear something wacky? My brother’s girlfriend’s brother is a drummer for Blue Man Group in Boston. And I haven’t gotten any free tickets yet. Bastard! 😉 * * * “My mind reels with sarcastic replies!” - Snoopy ---

Yeah, I saw them in Chicago about a year and a half ago. It was really cool. Totally unique. It’s impossible, really, to try and explain it to someone. I don’t know about the other cities, but in Chicago, there is a bar in the lobby where everyone drinks before the show, and then when the show starts, you’re allowed to bring the beer in the theater. By the way, I never did look at their website before. I always wondered what the name of that song was in the finale. The answer is in the FAQ. * * * Trying is the first step to failure ---

as a side note… what was with that blue guy on the old straight dope TV show? Always popping up in the corners and stuff. Who ripped off Who here!!! ---

I got to meet and greet the bluemen outside, one of them actually whispered thank you, when I told them how great the show was (they dont talk)… and they put blue on my ticket stubs. Im gonna attach those to the spit/spin painting that I bought that they do in there show.
