What a Blast!
What a great treat to have Blast! come to Maine! Everyone in the opening night audience was in awe of the talented cast’s ability to play a multitude of drums and horns while executing precision choreography.
The opening number was breathtaking. The sound of a snare’s cadence and a sea of silver horns performing Ravel’s majestic Bolero pulled the audience in for a fantastic ride.
My fiancée loved it. I glanced over during the finale to see her on the edge of her seat, eyes wide with an enormous smile. One of our favorite scenes was the drummer face-off in which two insanely gifted drummers challenge each other duel-style. We also enjoyed being literally surrounded by the horns as they left the stage and journeyed into every pocket of audience seating for one number.
I can think of few things more difficult than to describe this wonderful show to others. Words simply fail.

What animated expressions on the performers, and with such enormous energy. Such varied talent - baton twirlers, percussionists, musicians on brass...even didgeridoos bellowing out from the audience. Truly a spectacle that I didn’t want to end.

Jack Campbell says:
Wonderful concert (if that’s the right word) and better
than the “Three Blue Men” Rock concert. The choreography of all those horns moving about while playing and not colliding was exciting. A great show!
