Rudy Wiedoeft Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Is the Blast franchise still active or has it been put to bed? What about upcoming productions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 The last I heard of Blast! was about ten years ago, maybe more. I was supposed to see a local performance in either Lowell, MA or Worcester, MA. I had tickets but the weather was lousy and I didn’t feel like driving in snowy conditions so I stayed home. I believe the show traveled to Japan the following year and that was the last I heard of it. A quick Google search has info about the show and a recording, but does not list recent performances.

mingusmonk Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 They were still doing shows in Japan in 2019. Since Covid-19, their website has gone offline. And James Mason's website has always been fairly outdated. http://www.blasttheshow.com/ - DEAD http://megshows.com/ - Outdated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredMusTeach Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Benji Baker, a Music City front ensemble teacher, was in Blast DisneyWorld Japan in 2019, I think. I think they are still going, featuring the music of Disney. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrownBariDad Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I got good deal on a pre-owned Yamaha trombone from the Blast Japan group. When it arrived, it still had the Velcro on the bell for the wireless mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
