The name on the kit was foreshadowing nobody knew about until recently — including the Blue Man marketing team.In this episode, we dig into the full journey: from a family tradition built around an uncle with an accordion, to classical percussion study, to pit playing Broadway shows, to landing one of the most unique drumming roles in live entertainment.Here's some of what we covered:* How growing up watching Neil Peart and Phil Collins shaped her musical identity from the start* Why she started on classical piano — and what that gave her as a percussionist* The pivot from Broadway pit playing to the Blue Man Group world tour, and what each world taught her about the other* The wild audition story — filmed at 115 degrees in a back room in Spain with a rented kit, two hours to record and send it back, and over 100 applicants in the original pool* Being flown to New York for the final callback and walking in to find the audition was nothing like what she'd spent two months preparing for* What it means to play a character when the character is essentially just you* Her time subbing on the Book of Mormon national tour — and what it was like watching audience reactions city to city* How a fun COVID project learning Ableton ended up being crucial to landing the Blue Man gig* A Cirque du Soleil invite-only audition in London that came directly from a YouTube video she posted just for fun* Her upcoming solo project (a band called Lemon) and her work as arranger and orchestrator on the new musical Dust Bowl Radio Hour* Why she tells every student: don't wait for the degree to start networkingThe advice she gave at the end of this episode is the kind of thing that takes most people years to figure out. Start the relationships now. Know your role. Understand that every gig — pit, stage, session, tour — is drumming, but the approach is completely different.If this conversation resonated with you, the roadmap for building a career in theater music — the relationships, the mindset, the financial reality — is laid out in my book Broadway Bound and Beyond.Get your copy at broadwayboundbook.comClayton Craddock is the drummer for Cats: The Jellicle Ball on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre.

Mackenna Tolfa is the first featured female drummer in Blue Man Group history. She plays ‘The Rockstar' on the current North American Tour — the character she originated on the World Tour in 2021 after performing in more than 20 countries. Before returning to Blue Man, she held the drum chair on the national tours of Mean Girls and The Book of Mormon. She's also the orchestrator and arranger for The Dust Bowl Radio Hour, a new musical with a concept album.In this conversation we get into how all of it happened. How she chose the University of Minnesota specifically to study with Fernando Meza, the original percussionist for The Lion King. How she wrote a letter to the drummer from The Band's Visit as a high school student, had it delivered to the stage door, and how that relationship eventually led to her finding out about the Blue Man audition years later.And the audition itself. She was in a remote desert town in Spain — 400 people, no drum set anywhere nearby — when she got the call. She drove two and a half hours, rented the one kit in a back room, and filmed her audition in 115-degree heat with no air conditioning. She booked the role.We also get into what it means to originate a role versus step into a chair, how the Book of Mormon book is one of the most technically demanding on tour right now, and why following curiosity sideways — marimba physicality, Ableton, a fun cover video — has shaped her career in ways she never planned.Catch this episode wherever you listen to podcasts.

For weeks, she woke in terror, seeing “The Blue Man” crawl from a trash can, axe in hand, marching toward her house, always vanishing when her mother opened the front door. One night, the heavy thud of heavy boots echoed down the hall, board games hurled themselves across the living room, and an unseen presence made its claim on the family home. Decades later, the same sinister energy still flickers at the edge of their lives, leaving everyone to wonder: Was the Blue Man a warning, a harbinger, or the haunting himself?

Seattle's mayor made one of the worst jokes possible in his State of the City address. Luke and Andrew also investigate new and old claims regarding NBA players pooping their pants on the court. And a listener tells us what it's like to be friends with a Blue Man.

Chris Wink, Philip Stanton, and Matthew Goldman created Blue Man Group in 1989 as a performance art piece and it has since grown to become a worldwide phenomenon. What started as a small show at the Astor Place Theater in New York City went on to tour worldwide three times and take up residency in Las Vegas, Chicago, Orlando, and Boston. But all good things must come to an end, and the lights go out on their Astor Place run this February, making Blue Man Group one of the longest running off-Broadway shows. To date Blue Man Group has released five albums, received a Grammy nomination, performed on numerous TV shows, and appeared in many memorable commercials. In this conversation, Chris Wink and Philip Stanton share how they, along with Matt Goldman, came up with the idea for the Blue Man, who brings what to the table, and how Blue Man Group took shape and evolved over time. More about Blue Man Group's LegacySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Blue Man Group will end its hometown run on February 2, after more than 30 years at Astor Place. Two of the show's founders Matt Goldman and Phil Stanton talk about the history and future of Blue Man and take your calls.

It's a Blue Man's World and we're just living in it! This week, we're thrilled to be featuring the iconic Blue Man Group! This immersive and transportive show has been around since 1987, but it's gone through many changes and of course, several Blue Men! You can also see the show in numerous cities around the world, including right here in Chicago! After seeing the show, we sat down with a real life Blue Man, Callum Grant, to chat about all things blue. Hear how an actual Blue Man would describe what a show is a like and, of course, our favorite part of any interview, Callum tells us about some of the history behind the famous production. Learn about several of their iconic sets like “Drumbone” and “Paint Drums”, and Callum shares why the show has had staying power for so many decades. Of course, we end with a blue themed round of rapid fire, discovering Callum's favorite prop to use, how long it takes to turn blue, and THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION- WHY BLUE?

Perhaps the most important job your new Blue Man and Woman Group needs to do is to find candidates to run as Democrats and win! In a red county! The last three national elections in 2018, 2020 and 2022 saw many liberal/left/progressive Democrats defeat Republicans in red states and counties across America. Every district, every county in the red states has thousands of people who are pro-choice, pro-earth, anti-racist, anti-gerrymandering and believe the way you believe. If you are forming a new group of like-minded people in your area, make one of your first jobs be candidate recruitment. You must find the right people to run in 2024. Not the same old well-meaning folks who always lose. New blood! Fresh faces! Women, young adults, beloved citizens of your town. Not politician types. Just good people who will listen to voters and work hard to win their votes. Community heroes, progressive preachers, Girl Scout leaders, everyone's favorite English teacher. When they run as Democrats, especially in red areas, now they often win. The effort to find the right candidates must happen now. Get with your friends and brainstorm a list. The right candidates exist on your street. In this episode of Rumble, Michael Moore lays out how progressives can win in red districts. It all comes down to casting!
