Muse

[rasto]

Muse tour tickets go an sale tomorrow and I'm quite tempted. Are they worth seeing live ? We recently saw Coldplay and loved the show so I've got a bit of live music bug now

They're AWESOME live. Their live show sh*ts on almost everyone.

They will eclipse bloomin' Coldplay a zillion times over.

Their live show will blow your socks off...

Actual material has suffered a bit over the last couple of albums though.

One hundred pounds! Screw that.
Throw in the cost of a hotel, travel and food and it's probably getting on to 400 quid for me and the Mrs. Which is near enough what it cost to do download this year.
I have seen them before though, if I hadn't and I was a bigger fan I might be tempted.

One of, if not the best live band about

Are they worth seeing live?

ABSO-BLOODY-LUTELY!!!

Amazing live act.

I'm an old seasoned gig-goer (and ex-pro muso to boot so done my stint on stage) and they blew my socks off. Easily the best gig I have ever been to.

Just noticed the Coldplay bit - I must naturally block out any mention of them - If Coldplay were a Prius, Muse would be a Lamborghini Diablo, without silencers...

Am I the only one who thinks Matt Bellamy looks a bit like a super crossed genetic radioactive rat human?

Well I decided to go for it. Hit the website at 10 o'clock as soon as it was open. Saturday sold out and the only tickets left for Friday were right at the back of the arena ! I refuse to believe that all the tickets went in less than 2 minutes ! So no tickets for me, hopefully they will either add some more dates or release some more tickets at A later date since that its what Coldplay did.

Have you heard the new stuff??? Bit iffy if you ask me, bloody dubstep http://www.youtube.com/user/muse?feature=results_m...
They are good live but not the best, try Rammstein, now they WILL blow your socks off.

Thank fk, they're back to playing what they do best, Dupstep? are you serious? that is all Matt on the guitar, imagine it live! this is what Muse are all about, grand gestures, loads of drama and pomp.....fronted up by one of the best guitarists on the planet squeezing every last ounce of distortion, feedback, fuzz and general lunacy from something he knocked up in his {probably very grand} shed.

Rammstein are brilliant yes, but on a vastly different level

Indeed.

Rammstein's brand of industrial metal is alot less cleverly disguised than Muse's brand of heavy metal.

That and the fact that as much as I love 'em, I can't listen to more than thirty seconds of Rammstein without p*ssing myself laughing.
