Adult Swim programs hitting the road for live shows is really nothing new. Tim and Eric did it in 2007 with much success. They did it again in 2008 with even greater success. They also did it in 2009 when I finally had to say 'Mercy' as the venues were just too dang big to make the event enjoyable (or even viewable if you had a crummy seat in the back). For a live action show like T&E to hit the road makes total sense; you just need actors, costumes, some AV, and you're golden. Dethklok, the fictitious band from Adult Swim's animated masterpiece series Metalocalypse, went on tour as well. But that made sense to me as Dethklok is a real band with real musicians and their music works for my ears with or without the cartoon.
But for a primarily non-musical, hardly-ever live-action animated program to hit the road? What the? How is that even possible? How many more times will Klaus use the phrase "hit the road" (once)? Well, flashforward to 2010 when an astute BV commenter noted that that's exactly what's happening when Adult Swim staple Aqua Teen Hunger Force hits the road this spring for a 21-date jaunt that will eventually land at the Nokia Theater on Tuesday, May 11. Billed as Adult Swim Presents Aqua Teen Hunger Force LIVE, the shows will feature live music, script readings, rare clip screenings, previews of upcoming episodes of Squidbillies and Aqua Teen Hunger Force, free shwag, and more. The show is being semi-billed as an Dave and Dana LIVE; Dave being Dave Willis, the show's co-creator, and voice actor Dana Snyder. Tickets have been on sale since Friday April 2nd, so go git em!

Yeah it might not translate on stage from animation of course like that whole Seth Mcfarlane bit on stage that didnt sound like a good idea.

A lot of specialists tell that personal loans aid a lot of people to live the way they want, because they can feel free to buy needed things. Moreover, different banks offer collateral loan for all people.

Cool, btw I recommend to check out http://goodvillenews.com/Meet-The-New-Boss-You-wF4aeF.html - very inspirational stories , bye for now. What do coffee growers in Ethiopia, hardware store owners in America, and Basque entrepreneurs have in common? For one thing, many of them belong to cooperatives. By pooling their money and resources, and voting democratically on how those resources will be used, they can compete in business and reinvest the benefits in their communities.
