"LETS TEACH KATIE SOME EXERCISES BECAUSE SHE HAS A HEADACHE"
"KATIE, IMAGINE YOUR HEADACHE IS A COW"
"NOW SHOOT IT IN THE BELLY AND KILL IT AND DISTRIBUTE THE SLICES TO EVERYONE FOR SOME SUPPER"
I thought it was kinda weird, and got interested immediately. And then began the riot of colors, lights, strumming of guitars, the most wonderful percussion instruments, fluorescent paint splashing on drums and of course these guys and their histrionics.
Whether it was the wry humor, the music, the visual effects or the interaction with the audience, I loved every bit of it. The acts I saw today were:
* Paint on drums
* Airwire
* A romantic evening with audience (the lady being sucked right out of the painting was awesome I thought)
* Blue men on a taxi
* Pipes (Grooovy!)
* Paper rivers. I thought this was the best act of 'em all. Infinite reams of white paper glowing in the black lighting and flowing throughout the hall and filling up the stage. Oooooo it was surreal!
Every act was so complete & so finished, and inspite of it being enacted hundreds of times, there was still a freshness to it. Needless to say, I was totally blown away at the end of it all and I wasn't speaking for several minutes. An experience of a lifetime. Thanks for taking me to this show Kavi!
If you are in a city where the Blue Men are performing, don't miss it for anything!
