Blue Man Group and King Tut's Wah Wah Hut

Last Thursday, Off the Grid noted the Blue Man Group's 20th anniversary... on Nov. 17, 1991, Blue Man Group "Tubes" opened at the Astor Place Theatre.

Before taking up residency there, the group played out and about at a variety of venues... including King Tut's Wah Wah Hut on Avenue A at Seventh Street (where Niagara is now).

Came across this flyer while visiting the King Tut's Wah Wah Hut Facebook page.

Among the other photos on the King Tut Facebook page ... from March 1987...

...and the front entrance at Seventh Street and Avenue A...

I think I saw Blue Man Group at Dixon Place - I can't believe it's still going strong.
