Notice that the judges were given plastic rain ponchos to wear!
This was a great way to get the public into the building (over 7,000 in attendance) and many of them stayed to watch the finals after Blue Man Group finished their awesome set, and Woodie arrived via the ceiling!

Turned out, the paint was very easy to clean.

I was lucky enough to have a seat that issued a poncho. During the performance I kept thinking I was getting wet, but no paint on the ponchos at the end.
I was more concerned about the clear lane divider which got really spattered, but the crew did a great job with the foam cleaner, and the clean-up only took about 5 minutes!
What a show!

the paint is actually a 1/2 and 1/2 mix of water and paint to give it more of a splatter effect.

if you guys liked the show, check out the tour or a stage show

Well, not quite....

highlight for spoiler...

the gumballs are actually condoms filled with paint, while the marshmallows are creamcheese covered with powdered surgar, still an impressive feat though!

By the way they were squishing down and sticking to each other, I knew they weren't normal marshmallows.
