Las Vegas Show - Blue Man Group
 
Any recommendations on the Blue Man Group Show. Thinking of going with my wife and two teenage daughters.

We went in NYC & it was incredible. I think it would be perfect for your kids.

There are lots of old posts about this.
Around 2/3-3/4 of people seem to like BMG.
I was bored with it after about a half hour.
But it is unusual and teens seem to like it best of all.
Don't sit in the front 2-3 rows if you want to avoid being sprayed with mashed banana meal. Gets in your hair and and all over and it's a mess despite the plastic ponchos they provide.

I agree with Travleis, it was fun for about a half hour. But by the end I couldn't wait to leave. But I was clearly in the minority. Other people were screaming and stamping their feet. And it got a standing ovation at the end.

The Blue Man Group is clearly one of those "love-hate" performances. Frankly, I attended in May 03. Thought is was a waste of time..a waste of money...Others will think it is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Good Luck and save your money.

Will probably be great for your teens, bit I recommend taking the earplugs they offer as you enter the theater--you will need them!Also, the strobe lights made me really nauseaous.
