The Wiggles

Today we went to go see the Wiggles. They are an Australian kiddie band. They played at the Beacon Theater on the upper west side. We took the A train up there early in the morning for the 10:30AM show.

You used to like watching the Wiggles DVD we bought you but you quickly tired of it and unlike most of your DVDs you never wanted to watch it again. But we do play some Wiggles CDs on the radio for you. Out of all the kiddie shows, the Wiggles are the least annoying. They actually write some decent songs that we all like to sing along to.

Here they are as they came out on stage. The red one is Murray, the purple one is Jeff (your favorite), the blue one is Anthony, and the yellow one is Greg or Sam. The original yellow Wiggle has retired so I'm not sure what his name is. The new one was pretty good.

Caden did not like the show at the beginning. He was crying because it was so loud and people were screaming. Mommy took him to the back of the theater and walked him around outside.

At first you were quite tentative. You just sat in my lap. I kept showing you girls who were dancing in the aisle. Then after a few minutes you ran down to dance with them and I never saw you again until the show was over. By this time Caden was doing better and mommy went down with you to make sure you were okay. You kept inching closer and closer to the stage trying to get a better view.

The Wiggles would come out into the audience and give some special people hugs. They are all quite old now compared to the DVD we watch. You can see Anthony as some grey hair already.

Here you are getting a little bit closer...

They had most of the cast like Henry the octopus and Wags the dog. I'm not sure if these teddy bears are part of the show or if they added them because they were so cute.

All in all you had a good time. Here's some video of the show and you dancing.
