Saw them in 2000 in New York in a tiny theater and still one of the best shows.

I saw them around 2004 in New York. The show was amazing, I actually took a head shot from their marshmallow cannon that they had.

Saw them twice live years ago. The first time was in Vegas. There was a large group of deaf people sitting next to us. They had as good a time as the rest of us since you could "feel" the sound.

Not sure what kinda show they put on these days, but if I'm ever in Vegas and can catch a "cheap" show, I'd go again.

I got to see them in Vegas a few years ago and it was one of the best shows I watched. If you ever get the chance to see them do it!

A cheap show of deaf people?

i've seen them live twice; once in Vegas (had a Blue Man spit Toblerone chocolate in my hand) and once during their How to be a Rockstar 2.0 Tour.

The traveling shows and the Vegas shows are different, like Cirque de Soleil.

Me, too. I was the audience member they selected to go backstage and be wheeled out with my head in a jello mold.

I didn't realize they are not the same people all the time. I saw a video of audition for Blue Man Group I found on net and other people rotate through the group.

Saw their show in Orlando a few years back. Absolutely loved it! Three rows back just left of center... No plastic needed!

Seen them a couple times here in orlando. Pretty good, the musicians were very good. Someone in the audience yelled "Play free bird" at some point, it kind of went along with where the show was at. Within seconds, like less than ten the band kicked kicked in playing it. The band is blacked out when they aren't playing and are all wired with neon lights. That was pretty impressive!

I wasn't to impressed with them when I saw them at the '07 Vegas Cup race. Then again I was in turn 4 about half way up the stands, watching them over a jumbo-tron and listening over the

tracks PA system.

I have The Complex Rock Tour on DVD.

I like "The Current" most, the 9-11 tribute the least.

Tracy Bonham is mneh, at best.

they are a theater act, so the las vegas talent is not the touring talent

This got me into Venus Hum, I bought 2 of their albums, plan to get more. That chick can really belt out a song.

I can't stand female vocalists that sound like little girls.

Especially if they are little girls.

Seen them twice here in Chicago. Really liked both shows.
