I guess those of you who don't have young kids that are 'Wiggle-heads' won't find this post very entertaining...
Highlights:
- Our seats! We had an aisle seat so Bean got to dance!
- Seeing them so up close. Captain, Anthony and Jeff Passed right by us. Ben aka "I'vebeen-a-wiggly-dancer-forever" Ran up our asile as well.
- Anthony calling out to Murray during Murray's introduction of "Dancing with Wags the Dog", "Murray there is a sign for Wags out there in the Middle!" and Murray peering out at us and reading " 'Bean Loves Wags the Dog' Fantastic!"
- all the dialog mess ups were funny. I guess thats why they picked Erie to work out all the kinks before they moved on to bigger venues. A piece of scenery fell on Jeff during "Play your guitar with Murray"
- Anthony...funny sweet down to earth. Murray, so soft spoken and kind. Sam..yes Sam. He's not Greg, but Greg's not Sam. Sam does have something special. You can hear it in the new songs. All of them tried to take all the hand s of all the kids they could, if someone thrust out a Camera, they tried to pose. Really Sweet.
- They didn't do "Wake up Jeff" or "Where's Jeff" boo
- Didn't do "Queen of the Roses" Katerina just gathered up the roses and the bones together. bah.
- No "Hoo-Dee-Do" They had a bunch of dialog about Pennsylvania Polka...then no Polka...um..ok
Bean on stage before the concert . Just a wee bit excited.
"Ah nuts! my hot potato crayon broke already"
Captain
Anthony couldn't remeber his dialog, so Captain had to say it for him.
"We are Healthy, We are Strong" New song. Sam makes lots of funny faces. Or he must because he's making a funny face in every picture. (opps blogger cut the picture off...click on it to see Sam)
"Fruit Salad" Super Bouncy fruit Captain and Anthony were throwing at each other. (Click to see full picture)
"Play you guitar with Murray"
What else?" "Quack quack quack, Cock-doodle -do!"
Dancing to "Quack quack"
Another new song..."English Garden"
An Okay shot of 3 of the guys. (click to see Murray)
Okay now you are going to ask why are there so many picture of the big red car? Well they all have to do something in the car don't they? I mean Anthony eats, Murray plays guitar, Jeff falls asleep, couldn't capture that all in 1 picture, could I? (hee sorry about this)
"Murray's in the backseat, playing his guitar" (click to see full)
"So lets all call out, 'Wake up Jefff!' " (you can see a ok pic of Fernando, the boy who sings "Everyone Calls me Ducky" in Cold Spagetti Western. He's 18 now.)
"Anthony is eating..." It was very nice of Anthony too look right at our Camera too!
"Sam is doing the driving.." This was clicked during the scooby-do-wah, hence Sam's face. Although we didn't get a picture of Sam's normal face at all, he's not really funny looking. (You can see Ben on the left too. Look how thin he is!)
I guess we can talk about Sam now, as I am sure everyone who hasn't seen yet is wondering how he is.
Well, honestly...he's just fine! His voice is very different thanGreg's. Greg's voice is rich and masculinely baritone, Sam's is melodic..smooth. The only songs that were jarring to hear Sam on were "Hot Potato" "Here comes a Bear" and "Play your Guitar with Murray" .
"Rockaby your Bear" sounded great with him, as did all of the new ones. He sang "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" at the very end, and it was was wonderful. Bean was mesmerized.
Bean didn't seem to mind Greg's absence. After the concert she reports,"I like the 'lellow wiggle".
Whoops Sam is still doing the driving and singing scooby do-wah
Curtain Call!
