Check in with Soccer Mom in Denial who started Music Monday and see who else is playing!
It’s probably because I have always felt tuned in to the percussion instruments (OK, I have always had a “thing” for drummers too--but that’s rather a side-bar issue), but I can listen to drum solo’s, and heavy percussion pieces and just be in my fifth heaven. And that’s probably why, when I first heard the Blue Man Group, I just went total immersion into their stuff.
I suppose if I were to get all “into” the heady diagnostic angles, like their appearance, their on-stage persona’s and how they work off each other, there’d be an entire other aspect to why I enjoy their performances so much. But basically I just enjoy their sound.
Now, although the piece I’ve chosen to share today isn’t one where they show off so many of their varied instruments, it just happens to be a song that resonates inside me. I don’t care to analyze it--I just like to listen to it (over and over and over). I can play it for quite a few takes before I’ve had my fill. And then the song can run around in my head for the rest of the day.
Hope you enjoy it too.

I've always wanted to see Blue Man Group! They were a favorite of my nephew's and they seem like something I'd really enjoy. Fun clip!
Oh! The insanity!
I really love the very quirkiness that is the blue men.
I just love music period. I can listen to anything except heavy metal. Thanks for sharing this unique group. I hadn't heard them before. (((HUGS)))
I married a drummer, but he isn't blue.
