Blue Man Group

I have to say, I don't see what the appeal is. I went yesterday to one of their shows, and it seemed like it was a couple retarded guys who bang on things.

These guys are talented; I'm not denying that. But they act so culturally inept that I don't understand what's going on.

I like so-called "stupid movies", where the characters act like oafs and the jokes can be immature. But at least the people in those movies don't have a level of naivete akin to a newborn baby. I guess I'm a fan of stupid humor, just not stupid people.

Edit: I didn't even mention the part where they get all preachy about information overload, all the while bombarding you with poster images and light up displays. Why couldn't the show be what I thought it would be: 3 guys in blue paint banging on upside down trash cans and splashing paint everywhere? I don't need your "message"; if I wanted to pay to hear some overhyped problem in the world then I would rent An Inconvenient Truth.
