Blue Man Group has captured its latest world tour on a new CD/DVD entitled How to Be a Megastar Live!

How to Be a Megastar, according to press notes, "is a live rock show that takes the audience through a satirical 'workshop' on how to create 'the perfect rock concert experience.' In the process, they celebrate, skewer and otherwise deconstruct rock stardom in all of its narcissistic glory. The Blue Men download a new 'how-to manual' that takes the audience through a uniquely clever and interactive show."

Filmed live during Blue Man's Dallas, TX, engagement at the American Airlines Center, How to Be a Megastar will be distributed by Rhino Records beginning March 25. The CD/DVD combo will be available for purchase by visiting www.rhino.com.

Bonus materials on the How to Be a Megastar CD/DVD combo include the video for "I Feel Love," the comedic parody "Mono Makes A Plea-Save The TV Campaign" and the behind-the-scenes look inside Blue Man Group's creative process, "Inside The Tube."

The Off-Broadway hit — which also plays in Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Berlin, Tokyo and Oberhausen — remains attuned to pop culture. Blue Man has appeared on "Scrubs" and "America's Got Talent"; they released the "Live at The Venetian – Las Vegas" album on iTunes; and unleashed (with Toyquest) a line of Blue Man Group instruments.
