Said Executive Tour Producer Paul J. Emery, III of Emery Entertainment, about the tour, “Response for the first leg of the tour has been incredible and Blue Man Group fans across the country have spoken – the tour will continue!”
Describing the 2007 tour, Emery said, “After downloading a tongue-in-cheek ‘how-to-manual’ on becoming a rock star, Blue Man Group is joined by an eight piece band and subsequently takes us through, step-by-step and song-by-song, every head-bobbing, fist-pumping moment of a real concert with constant hi-tech interaction with their audience.”
Jennie Willink, Executive Producer of the tour for Blue Man Productions, stated, “We are thrilled to continue the momentum we’ve built with Emery Entertainment and Pacific Arts Entertainment for “How To Be A Megastar Tour 2.0”.
