I'm a drummer guy, from Tony Williams to Simon Philips to Joe Morello when I was 11 years old. I was amazed by the guy in the Chicago BMG in the 2006 to 2008 group. He was as good an in the groove as any band member I've ever heard and seen. i even waited to shake his hand at the exit of the show. congratulations on 12 years. It got to be hard to do it so many times with passion and enthusiasm.

I saw them in Vegas in like 2010. We got to the show a bit early and were talking to the couple next to us when the stage manager came up to me and asked it I wanted to be in the show. They had me put on special shoes that show up somehow under black lights so the blue men know who to pick out of the audience. It was super cool to get taken up on stage and be part of the show.

The second time I went to a Blue Man Group show, I purposely stared at the band members, they're so full of energy! Edit: Been to the Universal Orlando one at least 3 times (hopefully I'll get to see the show when I'm there this coming week!) and I saw the New York show once

You know, I'm always so transfixed to the Blue Man when I see the show (I saw it for the second time September 2018) but I really don't think it would be the show that it is without the band! The energy that they bring is just amazing and the music is just so inspiring and moving in a way? It moves me in a way of nostalgia for the show, as well as adventure. Plus, I NEVER listen to instrumental music, because I love to sing so much, but I absolutely LOVE listening to Audio! Thank you Blue Man Band, for all of your hard work that you do every night!

@drewishaf Жыл бұрын

I got to see the band perform live in Las Vegas about 18-20 years ago when I was in middle/high school. It was the last time I've been to Vegas but we went there on vacation 3 or 4 times before that. At the end of the show, they used these fans above the seating to blow huge rolls of like single ply toilet paper over everyone followed by a bunch of confetti. About 4 or 5 seconds into this spectacle, I glanced up and saw a roll of the 1-ply falling towards me. Somehow, I managed to catch it and took it with me as a souvenir 😆. After the show, there were several of the "band members" hanging out for pictures and stuff, three of them took my toilet paper and all signed 1 letter: "B" "M" "G." It was bizarre and surreal to say the least, but they had a great sense of humor. That was a great vacation because we stayed in the Luxor towards the top (and inside you can see everything below you) and also went to see Penn and Teller for a show and meet & greet (where I first heard Teller speak.) I'd wanted an autograph but I'd lost/tossed my program sheet. Penn asked if I had anything else he could sign and I pulled out a dollar bill. He laughed, went into a bit of a rant about the designs on the dollar, crossed out "God" with a sharpie ("because Congress shall make no law appoint a state religion,") and autographed it. Teller drew on George Washington's portrait [with a Hitler mustache, devil horns, and surprised eyes] before laughing out loud and also autographing it.

You guys should do the PVC next! I've been playing the marimba for most of my life and I love the sound, but when I first heard the PVC I instantly fell in love with its tribal and industrial timbre. I'd LOVE to know how it works! (Especially how it goes from white to multicolored... I could use that for a few of our high school theater productions...)

You need to have a mirror image of what the Zither player is doing. Just enough so you can understand the intricacies of what he's doing. Maybe work a visual element to the instrumentation?

Anyone know what photo-reactive paint the band members use? I perform for a dissonant black metal band and use lots of colors and blacklights, and the photoreactive paint I use is liquid, a pain to use, and smells terrible!
