Blue Man Group’s Megastar World Tour is a live rock show that takes the audience through a satirical “workshop” on how to create “the perfect rock concert experience.” In the process, they celebrate, skewer and otherwise deconstruct rock stardom in all of its narcissistic glory. The Blue Men download a new “how-to manual” that takes the audience through a uniquely clever and interactive show that guarantees to deliver hypnotic entertainment for all ages.
While the ongoing success of their theatrical shows continue to wow millions of fans across the globe, Blue Man Group’s Megastar North American tour and the most recent Megastar World Tour are also making their mark selling close to 2 million tickets to concerts goers’ world wide. The blu-ray disc HOW TO BE A MEGASTAR LIVE! was filmed in front of more than 40,000 fans during sold-out, two-day performances at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX. Six cameras were on hand to capture the music, the lights, the comedy and the exuberance that is Blue Man Group!
Released in standard format this past spring, HOW TO BE A MEGASTAR LIVE! debuted at #2 on Billboard’s DVD Chart. Literally in a class by itself, HOW TO BE A MEGASTAR LIVE! is unlike any DVD Rock Concert ever released. Zach Freeman of bloggernews.com adds, "Increasingly hilarious, varying between insightfully dead-on and crazily off-center, finally some Blue Man Group captured on DVD for anyone who hasn’t been able to make it to the live show, or for those who have seen the live show and want more!"
