Blue Man Group

I've always wanted to see the Blue Man Group perform, but didn't really appreciate how amazingly cool they were. We just saw their How to Be a MegaStar Tour 2.0 here in San Jose (tickets through a contribution to KTEH) and I was totally blown away. It was the most multi-media theatrical experience I've seen -- the songs were illustrated with beautiful animations (complete with all the lyrics) -- and they even sent text messages to the audience (if you signed up and paid $1.99) throughout the show. One of the instructions in the text messages was to hold up your phone like a lighter when they put question marks on the screen on the stage -- the photo below with all the little lights shows how many people were following along.
