There's more than 1 blue man group - I've heard that as many as 10 different groups may be touring as the Blue Man Group from time to time. If you look up "Blue Man Group - Rock Tour" it gives you their current US tour dates.
*edit* by "touring" I mean playing shows somewhere, not necessarily moving around from venue to venue

Blue Man performs in a handful of theaters. they started off in Boston, Chicago, Vegas, and New York. Now they have a show in Berlin, Oberhausen, and Orlando. these are just their stage shows at these venues. They also have a touring "rock band" that plays a completely different show. and it would also appear that they have added a theater show in japan.
Yes and they will be soon or recently were at the Patriot Center in No VA.
A couple weeks ago there was a special on public TV about the Blue Man group and how they started... pretty cool and gave me far more respect for the group. However as I watched it I thought it was only one group of dudes - the original founders. They always wanted to be in a band but couldn't sing or dance or look cool so the Blue Man Group was created...

like 99% sure "blue man group" is not three people who go around the world doing a bunch of shows. its like a group of many blue men who are spread out and each does their own version of the blue man show.

you are right ... they have the la, ny, vegas, etc groups that pretty much stay put .... you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between them though i have to find pics of them and david bowie i took ... cr****

I would like to see the Blue Man Group at 'Roo, I think it would be good to have different types of musical acts. Like broadway shows or something, topics that fit into the setting though, like The love rock opera HAIR
and Dark Side of the Rainbow in the movie tent...
just some ideas, but yeah I would love to see the blue man group on stage with exploding fruit and such

I saw the Blue Man Group a few years ago. I must say it was a damned good time, they put on a real cool show. I don't know if this is the standard act but for that particular tour they were doing a "How to put on a rock show" tutorial as the theme. Like a said, a cool show all around, I could definitely dig it in a tent late in the afternoon.

i saw blue man group at the charles playhouse in boston a couple years ago and it was awesome, so awesome i decided to bring my family back the next year. i was somewhat dissapointed the second time around though because a year later not one thing was changed in the show. they literally put on the same show as i had already seen, and it was a good show and everything but i had already seen it. id be down for blue man at roo though because its guaranteed to be a different show than ive seen, but i wouldnt pay to go see them in boston again just because i would expect the same show ive seen twice.
