Matt was seated next to the late General Colin Powell, former U.S. Secretary of State and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington DC held in late April 2012. He asked a lot of questions of the highly decorated army officer and statesman and gave this quote about him in an interview with the Metro newspaper in the UK a few months later. Both of them were among the guests seated at the CNN table about 30 yards from U.S. President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. 'He was a lovely man and it was a very pleasant conversation...' Matt met and conversed with another former U.S. Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton in Hollywood, CA in November 2015. Three years ago in December 2018 MUSE played a gig at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London in aid of The Prince's Trust. The performance helped raise 500,000 pounds for The Prince's Trust. MUSE incidentally was supported by The Trust youth charity and given a small grant of 250 pounds in the early 90's which the band used to buy a PA system in Teignmouth which they still own today according to Matt and Dom. Earlier that year Matt was among the guests invited to meet with HRH Prince Charles, Duke of Wales at his official residence in London.
