  1. No, that's not what I'm saying at all. I generally don't care at all how fellow gig goers react to certain songs but I just thought it was a bit sad that a lot of people around me chose to chat all the way through RBS. I'd seen Bliss and CE played at previous gigs but to see RBS for me was mind blowing as I love that song. I think that's another reason I chose to call it a day after that last gig, I could die a happy man - I'd seen RBS live! I thought the first three albums were absolutely mind blowing, Black Holes slightly less so although still good and The Resistance even more less so and IMO not quite so good. So for me, I felt I was witnessing the steady decline of a once individual great 'rock' band to a more mediocre 'pop' band, and I don't really do pop. I have nothing against people who like that sort of thing - that's fine, just that it's not for me. I absolutely hated the love and cheers that greeted Undisclosed Desires (particularly after the indifference to truly great songs) as certainly up to that point I felt it was Muse worst song to date. Hate is probably the wrong word, I just thought it was sad and that Muse seemed to be going in a direction that I couldn't follow. I really wanted to buy the latest live bluray just for the Muse live spectacle as I honestly believe that in their day, they were unbeatable live but I just can't bring myself to buy it - pretty much due to the set list. I didn't buy their latest album but I have listened to all the songs from it and I have to say, it does nothing for me at all. As I say, it was great fun while it lasted and if I want to see how great Muse were, I'll just listen to an earlier album or even better, watch Hullaballoo or Absolution live.
  2. Muse are nothing like as exciting and generally mind blowing for me as they were when I heard their then latest album, Absolution. I had a blast seeing them play live (particularly the first time - they were fantastic and I have seen a lot of live bands) but I knew the end was nigh for me personally when the last time I saw them the crowd were generally indifferent to CE, Bliss and RBS but LOVED Undisclosed Desires and Starlight. I knew then that this would be the last Muse gig I went to. It was fun while it lasted though.
  3. Hi! Thanks for the request. How're you?
