Had never seen their show, but always heard it was a great time. So I go last night with a buddy... and it ROCKED! Just wanted to share the experience with everyone! If you have never been, or have been wanting to go... GO, you will love it!

I have seen them 4 times before and they are very good. Twice in Las Vegas and twice here when they were on tour.

i have seen it 4 times, including a few months after it originally opened in NYC in the 90's - its a brilliant show to be sure. one thing: make sure to see it when its a full house (weekend night, etc...) its much better in a packed theatre.

I love BMG!!!

I remember seeing the original cast at a $h!ithole little theater in NYC. GREAT stuff. I saw that old NYC show twice, and saw them once in Vegas.

My recommendation: Sit close. Seeing the facial expressions really enhances any show.

I saw them twice in Toronto before they closed up shop there. The first time, my sister got us seats in the Poncho Zone.

Not having any idea of what to expect, I spent the whole evening sitting nervously! Turns out we were seated far enough back to avoid any of the mess. I was almost disappointed!

The second time I went, I was determined to bring home a souvenir... so I bought the spin art!

Saw it in Las Vegas. One of the best shows ever. They really involved the crowd.

I saw them in boston. I thought they were absolutely fantastic. The whole production is so creative. I'd recommend it to anyone who has never seen it.

Over the past 7 years I've seen them in Boston, New York, Boston (again) and Amsterdam (only a few months ago). I have to say that on each occasion it was exceptional. Even in Dutch the show was surprisingly good (I was expecting it to lose a lot of its humor).

I'd go again anytime. Too bad I missed the Rock Concert a couple of years ago!

Actually their "home" is in New York in a small theatre on Lafayette Street. That's where the show originated. Granted, the LV show is the biggest of all of them.
