How to be a Rock Star
I don’t think I’d pay $60 for the tickets, but I must say it was a very good show.
I’ve heard the music before and I believe it is much better live and loud!. It is experimental rock with a heavy dose of percussion: 1 keyboard, 1 guitar, 2 drumkits in the background along with whatever PVC concoctions the Blue Men are playing. You will want to dance - if you can take your eyes off the blue dudes.
The Blue Men don’t talk, but they move like cartoon characters. Motions and emotions are exaggerated. They are usually pretty calm, but occasionally they jump, dance, or spray each other with fire extinguishers. Their facial expressions are all about curiousity and surprise. I did not expect any acts of the show to include them dragging audience members on stage, but that was in there too.
I’ll leave details of the finale a surprise, but will say it is surreal, and I hope it is all recycled afterwards.
