  1. Why TSP? I saw it at Earl's Court... but that was the only time I suppose! For me, Ruled By Secrecy and Endlessly are just as rare.... fuck it let's turn it into Absolution show haha
  2. Ha! I guess so, but over the years I've been lucky to see Dead Star 3 times, but fairly certain that will be quite high up. Let's be real though, the only logical choice is FAWY
  3. TOTALLY!! I feel like I get punished extra, I buy gig tickets multiple times a month, and I spend A LOT of fucking money on TicketBastard, but it seems the more I use it, the worse it gets.
  4. If we're all sat here like melons... I really hope the organisers are running round like headless chickens right now.... this seems to be cutting it reit fine.
  5. I would check back at 8am tomorrow. And then panic. We have a code, but no website that can even take a code yet. The TicketBastard page has changed to only listing the main sale on friday, rather than the fan presale and the R+L presale. I think they might be ironing some stuff out and then sending more emails. It seems a bit of a mess. Usually presale codes come from the .mu account which is different to the account used to access this forum. I have an .mu account and did get the message. Pyscho UK Tour- To access your unique presale code, log in to the Members section of muse.mu. Please note that in order to receive a presale code, you must have registered BEFORE 10 March 2015. This time- Fan club members will have access to an exclusive presale on Wednesday 5th July at 9a BST. Please note the password will be delivered tomorrow via the mailing list. 'fan club' is a vauge term imo. I've been shitting it all day. I really want to go to this gig but the sheer numbers game makes it really fucking difficult.
  6. The only upside, is that the ticket link takes you to the same TicketBastard page, but now on that page all information about pre-sales has been removed. I would hope for a unique .mu code to be used in combination with 'that password' (really that's the best they could come up with?!) No news on R+L presale yet. Not for me anyway
  7. I wonder if the £250 ticket is standing at the front, or some sort of hospitality package. I'd pay £250 just to be in the pit... but it's borderline ridiculous for a standard ticket. I have a ticket for Leeds as well... but have heard nothing about the code for that presale yet. Gonna be a long day of looking at my phone for these emails today...
  8. ahhh... man this is going to be a tough ticket experience. Saying that, I managed for the pyscho club tour.... definitely guys get a ticket buddy. And both of you hit up the site bang on the time, and stay on the phone or skype or whatever ,and whoever gets in buys the pair of tickets. Nothing more exciting than a 9am ticket rush Goood luck everyone...
  9. Honestly I'll be quite annoyed if they announce a show outside of Reading/Leeds. It was listed as a European Exclusive at the time, and honestly it's a fucking ballache to go to Leeds on Friday for them, Saturday for Pendulum in London, and back to Leeds on Sunday for Eminem. If it is a london show, when is it going to be? I will probably go but god damn I don't really want to drive Newcastle -> London -> Leeds - > London ->Leeds -> Newcastle in one bank holiday weekend. I'm too old for that shit haha.
  10. Man, not even a wiggle from me. As soon as it started, I knew what to expect. The porno moan sealed the deal for me. I truly love muse and will see them on every tour. But I fear the day when the scales are tipped to far, and the majority of the set becomes Madness, Starlight, Dead Inside, Dig Down, Starlight etc. and the mosh pit becomes frowned upon.
  11. I think you just have to remember taking muse's 'values'/lyrics at more than face value will end in disappointment. But then again I've never been one for lyrics. Riffs for days. And drones has a fair few that are great.
  12. tickets on sale today at 12 noon http://www.seetickets.com/event/leeds-festival-friday-ticket-2017/bramham-park-leeds/1075342
  13. reading for me, as I want to see pendulum on the saturday at SW4. Not really expecting anything special, but will always be happy to be surprised.
  14. Have actually enjoyed reading everyone's stories so here's mine in date order Earl's Court - 19th Dec 2004 This was my first ever time seeing muse, and I was seated a fair way back, but my most vivid memory is the encore of Apocalypse Please. Absolution is still probably my most favourite album of all time, and they played basically the whole thing at the gig. At the end of the main set it was one song I was dying to hear.. Cue the drums and I nearly jumped out of my seat on the top tier and down into the crowd i was that excited. This one is definitely top 3. I was only 14 so was very lucky to have a friend's parents drive us down and home through the night. Newcastle MetroRadio Arena - 19th Nov 2006 I had just moved to newcastle so this was a great gig as for once I diddn't have to travel. I was at the barrier, so diddn't get a good chance to mosh, and I don't remember anything sticking out about the setlist. I was very un-moved by BHAR when it came out after Absol, found it very hit and miss. Looking back at setlist.fm and I don't remember anything being particularly standout. Liverpool Echo Arena - 5th November 2009 This again was a great show, the whole three towers stage thing was a really good intro, but the standout moment for me was stockholm syndrome, and I think it was with hullabaloons as well. Was happy to see USOE as well, I do really love that song. Mosh pit was great. Lancashire County Cricket Ground - 4th Sept 2010 Again, a great stage. I really liked the set up for the resistance arena. Very clever stage design it really made you stop and go 'holy shit' when you entered the stadium. Supports were dreadful, a total buzzkill. Again, Stockholm Syndrome was great, as was the 2nd encore. PiB into Knights, I remember just having no energy left for the mosh pit,but dug deep and carried on jumping like a maniac. Emirates Stadium, London - 26th May 2013 Now this was probably the best Muse stadium show for me, better setlist than LCCC, including Supremacy, Sunburn and Butterflies double whammy. Great crowd, lovely sunny day in London as well. Just a great vibe and excellent stage design as well. Was great to be really close to matt when he was on the piano. I was so sore from jumping around after the gig that I couldn't really walk up or down the stairs for 3 days. Sign of a good one, that. Manchester Academy - 22nd March 2015 This is potentially no. 1. Rarities, B-Sides, Heavy shit, amazing crowd. Finally an old school crowd who were up for a good mosh pit. Maybe I should stop judging gigs on how fun the mosh pits are, but I can't help it. When I see Muse I just get so fucking pumped I want to let off some steam. Was really happy to hear Fury. After they played the groove earlier, I thought that may have been it. Everyone jumping around to psycho while the hype was still at max about the new album coming out was just awesome. And of course, Knights circle pit was amazing. I was so lucky to get tickets. I swear within 2 minutes, I opened muse.mu on a whim (or maybe from an email) saw they'd been announced and politely asked my client in the studio to take a short break while I sorted it all out. Download Festival - 13th June 2015 I will always have fond memories of driving to and from the gig. I had just got my brand new car. My first ever, and with only about a month's driving experience, drove from Newcastle to Derby, got there about 7pm, jumped around like a psycho to the whole set, then drove home and got to Newcastle about 5am. This was totally worth going though, the debut of The Handler, and a super awesome heavy set. Never felt so fucking thankful that I could finally afford a car. Was lucky to see Dead Star and Micro Cuts again after all those years ago at earl's court. Manchester Arena - 8th April 2016 Not a great setlist, and a fairly average crowd but still a little bit of moshing to be had. Unfortunately this and the next night are at the bottom. Stage show great, but something just diddn't really click. I felt bad because I took my girlfriend to see them for the first time, who loved the show, but me and my long-time muse gig buddy left fairly underwhelmed. Mainly because there was no SS and we always just lose it to that. So we were talking about how it wasn't as good as in the past. Manchester Arena - 9th April 2016 Went seated for this one, as was pretty knacked from the night before. We watched on from seats as they played Stockholm Syndrome, and Citizen Erased. Not much to say about that one really. Overall, I would say I've been fairly lucky in terms of what songs I have seen, the only gig I've really been gutted about is that last one. And now that I'm older, I can go whenever I want. I work freelance and can clear my schedule pretty easily, for instance the Manchester club gig. I know others aren't so lucky. I would have been soul destroyed if I'd have missed that. Being an adult is great. I know people say 'don't grow up, it sucks' but as a muse fan, getting older has just meant I can go to more gigs. Here's hoping gig no. 10 is a special one. I'm thinking of going european for a change. Amsterdam or Germany perhaps. The only thing that will throw a spanner in the works is having kids. So they can wait until Muse stop touring.
