Unlikely. The Blue Man Group(s) have been doing this particular "drumbone" routine and perfecting their instruments since the mid 90s. I've seen them live 5 different times and it never gets old. They are actually the best live concert I've ever seen, bar none...music and entertainment value is extraordinary, and the sound is always better than perfect. Here's one of my favorite BMG performances...yes good ole Baba O'riley...a little different PVC config...don't forget to catch the confetti cannons.

If you haven't seen BMG live you really must plan to do so sometime before you die!!... :wink:

I don't think they were playing at the time, although I'm not sure.

If I do see them in NZ, I'll definitely go see them.
