M o n d a y , J u n e 1 6 , 2 0 0 3 My trip to NYC and Blue Man Group Posted By yeller600 9:02:57 AMWhat can I say! I was just sitting here in my lunch break, musing away to myself...when my thoughts drifted back to my trip to NYC. It really was a great trip...there were so many highlights, mostly arising from just "hanging" with Fuzz and the fam and Cruddly. But, I suppose when people ask me what I did when I was there the event which really sticks in my mind...apart from turning a boring train ride out of the city into a VERY memorable foray into Gigglesville...was going to see Blue Man Group on Broadway!  So...while I mused away , my thoughts drifted into... " I wonder if Blue Man Group have got a website?" ...Lo and behold there it was www.blueman.com. As I navigated around the site I found myself reliving the whole damn thing all over again in my mind as I listened to their amazing and unique instruments on the net. I catch myself laughing out loud and grinning like a cheshire cat as the sounds tickle my eardrums, not to mention the rest of my senses! ;op Crud has already said that it was a "great freakin' show" but that doesn't nearly describe how great it was...sorry Crud! ;o) Fuzz had seen the show before, and described a little of what we were about to see, but nothing could prepare me for it. To be perfectly honest, I climbed the steep staircase to where I would find my seat, with that feeling of "Oh my God...what have I let myself in for?!" The beginning of the show actually catches you by surprise...no big entrance...just a very subtle introduction...and then you're off into the unique world of Blue Man Group. I spent the entire 2 hours or so completely transfixed. I laughed...I cried (with laughter)...my feet were tapping...my eyes were popping out of my head....Fuzz said it would be a "full sensual experience" and she wasn't wrong! (Then again...she rarely is!! ;o) ) I came away from the show tingling all over and in complete awe over what I had just seen and heard! In summary : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGH! Gimme more!!! |
