We went to see the Blue Man Group (for the first time) at a Wednesday 5pm show. While waiting for the show to start, the vibe was good, but the droning background sound (music?) was a little tiring. The first 10 minutes of the show consisted of a reader board at the front welcoming (fictitious?) persons and guiding the audience in welcoming them, congratulating them, or saying other silly things to them. It was cute at first, but went on too long and felt like a waste of our time. The subsequent opening was high energy and fun watching the performers play games with paint and drums. Very clever.
In preparation for a water balloon gig, someone came in late and the camera and focus went on following the perpetrator and had fun teasing them for our entertainment. But the water balloon setup was cleared away and I felt we missed out on an act (though maybe that was part of the plan).
At one point the Blue Men walked around the audience inspecting (?) folks, presumably to choose someone to participate in one of their acts. Again, it went way too long, so that instead of being entertaining, it was just something we had to wait on. What they did with the participant they ended up choosing was cute, but also seemed a bit drawn out.
Along the way there were some fun acts with drums, instruments made of tubing (and played as drums). That was intriguing and enjoyable. Returning back to paint and drums at/near the end was a fun throwback and reinforcement of how the show started.
The prices for tickets seems pretty high to me. We got $69 tickets (including fees) in the last row, and we could see just fine. Realize I could have paid $16 more and only been two rows closer made me glad I purchased the tickets I did.
Seemed probably best for a family as kids would especially enjoy some of their silliness.
Overall, we enjoyed most of the acts (though drawn out) and came away feeling good, but there wasn't anything that made me think "Wow, if I hadn't seen that, I really would have...

Read moreMy wife and kids (2-year-old boy and 4-year-old girl) were so excited to see the show. We drove all the way to Vegas for the kids to see Blue Man Group. We got to the Luxor precisely on time. We brought the stroller for the kids, and then the disrepair of Luxor struck. The guest elevator in Luxor was broken, and we couldn’t get the kids upstairs to the 2nd floor. The security seemed indifferent, saying they were too busy, and we had to wait for an escort, which we did for 20 minutes. Then we begged service hospitality to get us upstairs from the first floor and ended up going through the employee locker rooms to get to the front, but by the time we got there, we had missed the first hour. My daughter cried. Luxor made it up to us by giving us a $100 food voucher. Props to Luxor and Cecelia from service to get us to the second floor. But Blue Man Group… We ended up getting a partial refund, and the managers of Blue Man Group refused to let the kids see the last 30 minutes of the show. The manager asked the production group, and they didn’t seem to care (either manager or production); they just said no. I got the vibe that they didn’t care about what they do as a production or who drove all the way to Vegas for the kids to see the show. I wasn't expecting mountains to be moved, and I understand life happens. Just let the kids see 30 minutes of a show they spent 4 hours driving to. Shame on them. We spent a longtime running around trying to get up one floor for a kid friendly show and they just didn't care. To me it means the passion of the show is gone and its time to midnight...
