nice! :D
just too bad i probably won't be able to see other scandinavian gigs this time, just helsinki.

just get all their albums and start listening. ;)
ok well, 'origin of symmetry' is still my favorite muse album but mostly because i like the live versions of the songs from that era, not necessarily the album versions.
'black holes and revelations' might be a good introduction too, and then going backwards from that. i'm just really not sure what to recommend as different people always prefer different albums/different songs. i like the 2001-2002 era most, mostly because of the live stuff like said.
i'd always recommend the live dvd 'hulabaloo', it's one of my all time favorite official live dvd releases:

I also favor origin of symmetry. The live dvd haarp might be a good place to start. That's a good example of their recent live show.

I agree and was considering going to one of those shows since there's no Seattle date. I decided to wait for a Seattle date from each band. Better to see a Muse headline gig, I think. ;)
what a bloody mess today, trying to get tickets for the opneing night in helsinki!
i hate the ticket agencies sometimes: there were two agencies selling tickets for this show and turns out that one was selling only GA tickets and the other only seats. and of course, there was no information of any kind about this anywhere. people who tried to access only the "wrong" agency were told GA was sold out immediately the box-office opened today am 9 am. many of them were given some complete shit seats in some upper stalls too, just because the agency obviously released those shitty places first. :smth011
i got a GA ticket simply by sheer luck, just because i happened to keep trying to call both agencies simultaneously (the websites for both agencies had collapsed immediately after 9 am). i just happened to get through with the "GA agency", just by luck. and they told me "we only see GA tickets here, no seats". so...
jesus what a mess. there will be a LOT of angry people out there, once they learn about how it all was handled... :roll:
Wow, that sounds like some poor planning. Who do you think is to blame there, the concert promoter or venue? Does the venue usually have two different agencies handling tickets? That seems very strange to me. :? Too bad Muse wasn't doing any fanclub presales through the website like they did for the US shows last time around.
In any case, look on the bright side. You got a floor ticket. :smth023 Glad to hear that news.

(i hope this doesn't mean the new album's going to sound the same...)
yeah but i wouldn't want to see muse turning into a queen covers band, really. they have a genuine style of their own so they wouldn't need to copy anyone that much.

Copy, no. Borrow, pay tribute to, show their appreciation for? Nothing wrong there. Just listen to some of the riffs they play between songs. It's quite obvious who they're influenced by and enjoy letting us know it.
Remember, that new Queen-sounding song is just a demo.
btw, weren't you telling me you didn't see any similarities between Muse and Queen some time ago? ;)

but i don't think it ever was quite that obvious in their old stuff, they never borrowed some elements THAT directly. if there is/was some queen influence in their old stuff, it was there more like an atmospheric thing, something in the general feeling and the arrangement of things. they weren't borrowing details - like now.
i really don't like too much what i'm hearing now. :/ i really hope this is only something found on these demos and didn't get on the album. i hope...

Well, perhaps another song will be to your liking.
Uprising, the first single to be taken from Muse's new album 'The Resistance' is getting its first full play on Zane Lowe's show on BBC Radio 1 on Monday evening at 19:30. Come back to muse.mu on Monday for more details of international radio stations that will be playing the track on Monday and Tuesday.

Zane Lowe Show (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/zanelowe/)
i just find it very odd how they can't sell out hovet, stockholm. not even that big a venue. i heard there're some radio contests on some stations in sweden where they are giving out tickets because of this. by comparison, i remember it was a bit funny how in their last tour everyone went on on muse.mu how they wanted to go to the sweden show, how it was a must. people somehow believed it was going to be something special (because of the song 'stockholm syndrome'). i don't know where that rumour came from, but it turned out to be just a regular show.
A few more dates have been announced.
2009-11-12 London - Royal Albert Hall 'BBC Children in Need Concert'
2009-12-12 Las Vegas - The Joint 'KXTE Holiday Havoc' :rocker 8) :smth023
I could see Muse adding a few more of these holiday radio festivals in the US. Fingers will be crossed for KNDD's Deck the Hall Ball in Seattle.
Awesome stage design on this tour!

but why on earth didn't they play MK Ultra??? the best song on the new album...
a nice surprise was that they played Cave, that was pretty great to hear!
Nice pics, jb. :smth023
I was following the set as it happened on the official site. Cave was a nice surprise indeed. Well, maybe not necessarily a surprise since it had been played at some of the promo gigs earlier this year. But nice to see it still being played as part of the actual tour. :smth023 I'm seeing Unintended on the set as well. Back-to-back tracks off Showbiz. How interesting. The big mystery is that they didn't play MK Ultra. Lots of complaining about it exclusion from the set. Hopefully it's one they rotate in soon. I'd still like to see a bit longer main set or a second encore. Muse is big enough and has a large enough catalog to warrant such. I know they'll do the occasional double encore. It should be a standard, though.
btw, I heard some talk about no piano intro, or at least Matt not playing piano for New Born. Really? :? Any other new and/or interesting arrangements?

he didn't play piano for new born. he was still up there on top of that "column" during the beginning of the song (it's a screenshot from a video so i know for sure):
(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2470/4035950057_c57844719c_o.jpg)
nice green lasers there by the way, it looked brilliant.
sure, they should play a bit longer set. i've been asking that for years so i guess i'm sort of used to them never delivering that...
more later, in a hurry here now.
Strange for New Born. I guess I'll have to hear it. Anyway...
About the set length, I guess one has to see them in the UK or Paris to get a 20 song set. And really, I shouldn't complain. The shows I've seen have all been great. I was just hoping this time around it might be a bit different because their song selection is that much greater. At least they mix it up a bit and don't pump out the same boring set night after night (knock on wood). And this is why we go to multiple shows. :-D
a couple of video clips from Helsinki:

no change in the set list but knowing how they always do, i would have been surprised if there had been any between the first two shows.
really good floor crowds in stockholm. unfortunately Hovet is a lot smaller venue so the stage design had to be reduced, visually the show suffered quite a bit from this.
the band is in good form, really a pleasure to see them (then again it always was ;).
Nice shots. Decided to hang back a bit huh? So, Exo did start off the show? There was some confusion with the Tweets many of us were following.
Oh, I heard some woman fainted just as Muse went on. Crazy!

i'm glad he's back on more or less weird/goofy clothes, like that granny coat on q awards haha.
normally i don't care what people wear on stage, just as long they wear something decent enough and focus on playing well. but here for me it's part of the mood, a little bit of extra flamboyance.
stockholm syndrome (HD) from helsinki:

I could say the same about New Born. Something about hearing it live just leaves me simply awestruck. I remastered my Seattle '07 master over the weekend and kept listing to New Born over and over and over again. Matt's solo, with the channel swapping, and then the jam at the end are f'ing SWEET! :rocker Of course Stockholm Syndrome is one I couldn't imagine not hearing at the tail end of a Muse gig. I can do without rarities like Citizen Erased, Micro Cuts, Dead Star, and a few others, but SS and New Born are musts. I am slightly disappointed that Bliss has been left off the sets...so far. That's another staple for me if seeing multiple gigs, though I know it's one they don't always play.

According to someone on the .mu site, Muse will be playing a radio station Christmas concert! :rocker I like the sound of that! It seems a local promoter spoke at his management class and mentioned it. When the Las Vegas show was announced I immediately thought about Seattle and a few other cities. Why would they come all the way over here for one gig? It only makes sense that they play a few shows, and to those markets that didn't get them when they opened for U2. Now if they can only include Portland. :-D
Seems the rumor is true and Christmas will come a bit early to Seattle. :-D I put on my detective hat and found this:

It's a good thing you didn't post a pic of him in that suit sitting behind a piano or I might have thought you woke the dead and were seeing Liberace! :P
Looks like it's the red suit for the animated Matt, though.

Finally, that's nice. I was expecting it as the word is they played it on the Glasgow soundcheck, so they were rehearsing it.
Now they should just keep it in the setlist... and not do like they did with 'Exopolitics' on the last tour. I hope this wasn't just something for Birmingham only.

I don't think it'll be a one time thing. There's been a lot of message board chatter and even some booing going on at shows. Seems they've finally gotten the message. And it could be that they just didn't have that one down, yet. Not enough rehearsal or production wasn't complete. Something along those lines. Who knows? Just glad it was played. Now if they'd bring back Cave! Oh, and play 20 songs instead of 1-18. Fans will still have something to complain about, though.

Nice pics and video, jb. :smth023 I had seen a few photos from Cologne and thought the same about Matt's gasses. 8) Was also thinking he must have visited Dom's tailor. :P
this was a nice video i think, people singing & balloons falling out of the venue ceiling :smth026

i wonder if they'll add more stadium shows in june/july or will go play festivals instead.
btw i don't even really like saying this because i still do have some of my old respect for U2 intact, but i think Muse are SO going to make U2 too look old and tired when they support them. after matt i don't know what sould save bono from sounding like he was reciting his lyrics instead of singing. i think it's a suicide support choice for them - hey good luck bono.....

I'd imagine some festivals or maybe both. They're rumored to be in talks to play Glastonbury. I'd think they'd fill in those gaps between the already announced stadium dates with gigs in Europe. Those gaps do fall right in the middle of festival season. ;)

I just thought you meant a show in the future as it sounds like U2 will headline the 40th anniversary Glastonbury Festival this year with Muse getting another night. My guess is U2 will close the festival. Like it or not, U2 is still the biggest act in the world. Not sure why anymore. The new songs are a far cry from their good old days and it seems the gigs are more about "the glitz and glammer" instead of the music. Of course I say that days after I bought a pair of $113 tickets to see U2 next summer. :lol: But that's the way it is. Everyone knows a U2 concert is an event to be at. Maybe to be scene at? Muse still have a ways to go. While they're huge in Europe, they've yet to make it big in the US. They are gaining popularity and it will be something to see if they can fill arenas this Spring. My guess is the top levels will be blocked off, though. But let's give them time. After all, not every great bands plays to sold out stadiums around the world. In fact, I'm glad some don't. ;)

you got me all wrong there - god i hope Muse never becomes like U2 are now.
i was talking solely about music there, that's the only thing that's interesting to me really. personaly i don't care about whether some band is " a scene to be at" if they are not worth listening to, they are not worth to go to see. or who's the biggest - the bigger things become, the more hollow they become too. that's true even with Muse - the current shows are great but sometimes i do wish it was still 2001.
all i was saying that from musical point of view, to listen to Muse first and then U2 just doesn't help U2 to win any points. actually it just makes U2 to lose what little points they have left today - musically speaking.

I wasn't referring to you there. Just stating the obvious. About those U2 shows in the US where Muse opened, I read several posts by people on muse.mu saying U2 fans came out really impressed and were asking those wearing Muse shirts what albums they should buy. Like I said, give them time. They'll fill those arenas over here soon enough. Then we'll all be wishing it was 2001.

it will be interesting to see who the UK stadium support bands are - gates open at 12:00, so there should be a good two - three bands able to play... anyone got any wild guesses / predictions / inside info?!

I got to meet MUSE last night before their gig in Seattle. http://www2.1077theend.com/photos/deck-hall-ball-6 (http://www2.1077theend.com/photos/deck-hall-ball-6)
Faces were melted during their set. It was FANTASTIC! :rocker
i'm not too sure about their latest album. i don't really like the popular song being played on the radio (really can't stand constant chanting/choruses that make up the bulk of a song). please don't hate me for this, but to me, muse is becoming less interesting as they become more popular. :?

I can understand your feelings on them. They do seem to want to make it in the US, becoming more pop sounding, going after a younger audience and all. Still, I love the new album and can tell you they put on a GREAT live show. Just with they'd play more of the symphonic stuff from Resistance. Those three are better than several of te songs they are playing nightly. I've been told they are working on them and hope to incorporate them into the set at some point. Ah, and they are rehearsing in Atlanta before the start of the US tour. Something they didn't do a lot of before the Helsinki gig, which kicked of the Euro tour. They were too busy supporting U2. Again, trying to make it in the US.

Yes, I was hoping a bit of the magic would rub off and I'd be able to play some instruments better. If it did, I must have washed it off or something. My guitar playing wasn't any better after the concert. :P

US Muse fans, tune in to VH1 this Friday (8th Jan) at 23:00 PST/EST to see the band's performance at their homecoming show in Teignmouth last September. In case you miss it, the show will also be aired on Palladia on Saturday (9th Jan) at 21:00 PST/EST!
Already have this one on DVD. Nice gig. Definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it, or re-watching if you have.
Some older tunes are finally making the set lists.
-Sunburn
-Butterflies & Hurricanes
-Cave (back in the mix after being shelved for a while)
-Can't Take My Eyes Off You
-BLISS
-CITIZEN ERASED
-DEAD STAR (w/Micro Cuts outro)
I am loving the variety! Let's hope it continues through the US tour. :smth023

I'm going to three shows on consecutive days in the NW and then both nights at Wembley. Hopefully I'll get to hear CE, Dead Star and Bliss. Already seen them play 2 of the three, but wouldn't complain one bit to hear them again.

Jealous that you got to see them on this tour already. I haven't, yet. Soon, though, very soon. Three shows in three days (Vancouver, Seattle, and Portland)! And then in September I'll be off to Wembley for both gigs. :rocker

You know, I must say I'm a bit bothered by how Muse announce shows. They'll announce a few, some bigger shows many months in advance, which get people to travel to them. Then, they'll come back and announce a string of shows in various other places. I very well may have skipped Wembley and gone to the three Scandinavian shows had I known about them back in October when I purchased Wembley tickets. Oh well. I shouldn't complain. Wembley is going to be special. Not that these summer shows won't be. But Wembley. Just compare the setlists and stage to those from other stops from around the same time.

say no more. though i guess it can be said these aren't regular tour shows but more like summer festival shows, that partially explains the way they've been announced.
set list wise it's not a bad idea to try to catch some special shows because muse tends to stick to almost identical set list during regular tours as we know. the wembley shows might have something special in store whereas the scandinavian shows are probably going to be "just" regular shows.

Sure, a lot of these shows are festivals, which of course can't be announced until the organizers release the entire lineup. But there are still several Muse-only shows. And it's not like this is a new practice for them. They've been announcing a few shows at a for at least the last few tours. Well, at least that's how they do it in the US. Whatever happened to just making an announcement with "x" amount of dates? This three, four, five at a time thing is just so strange. Some fans in Florida and portions of the midwest really got screwed because they kept thinking more shows would be announced only never were.

true. they could at least tell if they are planning to add more shows, even if they didn't know the exact dates/locations. this time they have disappointed many fans that wanted to see them, that's true. and made many others travel unnecessarily.
oh well, these damn rock (semi-)millionaires - what do they really care? they've forgotten how it is when you do have to count every penny that you earn.

Yep. There are rumors of a return to the US after Wembley (in October). At least Matt tweeted about an LA gig. They did the same thing in previous years, coming back to play LA and SF. It wouldn't surprise me to see them hit up the areas they missed during this first run of dates at that point, though I hope they do. A lot of fans were really pissed off after the band had said this would be the biggest US tour to date. Pretty hard to do more (arena) shows than the amount of clubs they played while touring for Absolution. Anyway, if they do come back in October, announce all the dates at one time. I'd hate to not see a Seattle date on there, buy my ticket to LA/SF, and then get a Seattle date added later. Ah, who am I kidding? I'd go and and enjoy the Cali dates and Seattle. It's just so frustrating and EXPENSIVE!

it's very much possible, i'd say even likely, as they've done that before. for instance on the first leg of the black holes tour in 2006 they totally skipped scandinavia, all countries, only played the mainland europe. that was annoying. but then they came back in 2007 and did an entire scandinavian/eastern european tour. so in the end they did deliver even for those people who didn't want to travel.

i guess "the biggest" must have meant biggest venues then, not the number of shows. at least so far.

That's the way I took the quote where as most did not. Biggest meaning venues, and/or a grand show (stage design). That much is true. The stage is pretty massive. They've played arenas here during the last tour, but just two short runs that were separated by a month. This tour is all arenas and quite a few dates. Some places they haven't played in a while (Baltimore, Vancouver). It's certainly a "big" tour.
Hmmmm...their gig from SXSW was supposed to air on MySpace last night. Seems there were audio issues, so only Stockholm Syndrome and Knights of Cydonia are available. However, the banner says another US show will be available soon. Hey, I have three shows coming up! I wonder if one will be filmed? :shock: My guess is that it will be Coachella since they always broadcast the headliners, although MySpace isn't involved with that. Fingers crossed for one of the NW shows to be filmed.
Other news just announced was a Fall tour. There have been tweets and rumors of a return, just as I mentioned above. Good to see it's been made official now. Okay Muse, do it right and announce all of the dates at one time. ;)
Hmmm. They´re gonna play at Zinkensdamms IP which is mainly famous as being the home turf for Hammarby´s bandy team (they actually went Swedish champions today) but is not such a great venue for concerts. Well it´s located in the nicest part of Stockholm so one or two beers should go down smoothly before or after.

What kind of cheap trick is this silly deal with "Choose the Setlists"? I don´t want a prefabricated silly setlist with fan lures (wants). I want them to play the songs they feel like playing. Crap! Might as well put on a cd with som fan craved songs. This is really a low! Resistance?! Against what? Creativity?

What's wrong with getting a little fan input? They've already done a tour in Europe to support the latest album and play the set they wanted to play. Beises, the page states the band will endeavour to include at least one from the top five in the setlist at each show! I look at this as a way to have a unique show, not some same boring set each and every time out. It's not like they're picking some random fan's dream set. It's just one song the band will then incorporate into their set. My hat is off to Muse for doing this. Would be nice to see other bands do such a thing.

i agree, ui think it's great.
like crowbi said, their site clearly say they try to include "at least one song". so why would that have to mean they'd be playing songs they "didn't feel like playing"?
and at least it shows that they are interested in keeping in touch with their fan base in this medium (the same can't be said about many other bands).
besides, if you go to see muse on their regular tours you'll see they do tend to repeat setlists. yet fans have been well aware that the band do have a lot more songs in their repertoire which have been played in some more or less one-off shows more or less recently (citizen erased, space dementia, dead star, fury, megalomania, just to mention a few) - and all are something that many many fans have been wishing to hear more. what's wrong in trying to get those played more in their set upcoming shows? or to get to hear some other less played classics? i'm sure they'll still play starlight and hysteria for those who want to hear just the radio hits, i really don't see those getting dropped.
but if you want to sell your ticket - hey more beer money saved. ;)
Okay, my mistake. I misred/misunderstood the whole thing. I thought that they were going to play the complete concert out of different peoples "wishlists". That could´ve been a nice idea though, I admit, if the concert was going to be held in a smaller place like a club or so and with a crowd that were invited personally by the band.

I meant to answer this earlier. Sorry about that. I was on vacation and was trying to stay off the internet (mostly). That's pretty standard for a Muse show these days. One thing i can tell you is Muse invest in quality gear and crew (lights, PA, professionals that know how to mix a concert). Those 52 euros are well spent, Fiction. Just saw the band three times and can tell you they put on one heck of a mind-melting show.
It's impossible to keep up with Muse concert listings. They announce a handful of gigs every week or so. Anyway, another round of US dates with some gaps as usual.
22nd September: Viejas Arena, San Diego, CA
23rd September: Honda Center, Anaheim, CA
25th September: Staples Center, Los Angeles, CA
1st October: Santa Ana Star Center, Rio Rancho, NM
2nd October: Pepsi Center, Denver, CO
5th October: Target Center, Minneapolis, MN
6th October: Bradley Center, Milwaukee, WI
8th October: Ford Center, Oklahoma City, OK
21st October: Pepsi Coliseum, Quebec City, QC
27th October: John Paul Jones Arena, Chalottesville, VA
2nd November: Sprint Center, Kansas City, MO
3rd November: Scotttrade Center, St. Louis, MO
5th November: Schottenstein Center, Columbus, OH
6th November: US Bank Arena, Cincinnati, OH
Speculation is they will be playing Austin City Limits just after Oaklahoma City and some Florida dates later in November. Pretty amazing live band. Catch them at least once. You won't be sorry.
I'm heading over next week to see the boys play a few gigs at Wembley. Really excited to see them in a stadium! :rocker

the second night on wembley was hands down THE best concert i've ever been to.
(and i know that many people tend to say that for the latest good show they've seen, but i really mean it, it was just the best show ever.)

I'm agree ! :-D Expectations were insanely high and met in full. I can honestly say no other gig I've been to comes close to the 2nd night at Wembley. It truly was the greatest gig I've had the pleasure of seeing.
My video of Bliss. :smth035

Best version of Stockholm Syndrome I've ever witnessed or heard on tape. And to top it off I was on the rail in front of Matt. :-D With 8+ minutes of jamming, this was easily the longest version the band has performed. For those not familiar with Muse or their live show, this could be compared to A Forest from Kilburn National in '92 or perhaps even All Mine from Paris '82. Yeah, it was that special. Riffs include School, Execution Commentary, Township Rebellion, Agitated (intro and outro), War Within a Breath, Negative Creep, DEAD STAR, plus a few unknown jams. Couple this with Bliss and Ruled by Secrecy being played, a tight performance in general, and my location, I'd have to say this was my second favorite Muse gig (out of 11). Wembley night 2 was the best concert EVER. Still coming down from the high I experienced during these last few performances. Two more to go on the tour! :smth023
