I've only seen Muse at relatively large venues. I'm going mad thinking of the possibilities of this gig! The next week and a bit will go by so damn slowly!!

This! Just this!

I feel the same! Opened my e-mails thinking "Blah, blah, more junk-mail.. Wait.. WHAT?!"

Try loading http://muse.mu/user-area/members.htm If it doesn't load then just keep refreshing that page in your browser until it loads.

Managed to get in and get a couple of tickets to Manchester! Had to refresh the Muse website many, many times, haha!

Update: can access the site but the members area login won't load still:LOL: Muse broke it all...

This :(

There is still time to rectify this problem!

Can't believe I didn't know this until now! Might even push me over the pre-order boundary

I suppose if Paramount own the rights to it they'll probably only release it in a manor that makes them a hefty profit

Yeah, I'm more than happy for him to come down to the barriers and do some socialising At the end of the day, ultimately, they need to do what they want to do and not what people want them to do and I welcome Matt getting up close and personal!

Yeah, I won't disagree with you there!

I think he recently spoke about wanting to use the opportunity of the current tour to get involved with the audience more and get up close and personal with them.

Hmmm, I forsee Muse extras on the DVD/Bluray release in the future...

As many above have stated Muse were, as expected, spectacular! Also finally got to meet some fellow board members who were kind enough to let me join them save being stood on my own for the whole gig Many thanks to Bells90 and her friends for putting up with me, made for a great night! I was stood on the left hand side about 25-30m from the stage. The crowd were keen but fairly sedate initially - but then I didn't expect it to be a full on Muse riot! But once the Knights intro started it was almost back to the usual Muse crowd around me! I almost got the feeling that it was a lot of peoples first time in the crowd and they all seemed to really enjoy it when the jumping started as pretty much everyone joined in where I was! TIRO was a spectacular finish as well with the crowd fully into that too! 100% worth driving down from the Etihad As Matt said: Come on, it's a free gig in London! Here's a couple of quick photos from my phone:

got side tracked at the etihad last night! But I still have one spare ticket if anyone is interested!

My friend had to drop out on this one so I'm on my lonesome! On the plus side that means I've got 1 spare ticket if someone is still desperate to go!

My friend just text me saying that he was provided with an official letter of authentication from the TM website which he filled in, signed at the bottom and stapled to the tickets so there shouldn't be any problems for entry! Even if you didn't get this form I'm sure they will probably relent on the night anyway

I don't think there is a system anymore My friend who got the tickets can no longer make it but obviously they have his name all over them. Will still be going myself! I can see why they would put names on tickets but seems foolish at the same time as well for these sorts of reasons.

Lets not forget that Muse don't always do whats expected

They sold out one of the Wembley nights this time around I guess music piracy is probably somewhat responsible for bumping it the costs of tickets every year as well - in order to negate the money lost in album/singles sales.

Nah I got side tracked making a brew - came back to my laptop with 4 seconds to go! Gutted! I'll be there either way, even if it means an overnight drive home! But as you said there are still other places available!

Bloody good spot!

Seems to be a lot of live acts struggling this year. Give a search engine a roam reference poor ticket sales and you'll hit a load of news articles about various bands, artists or live TV tours postponing and even cancelling dates with the blame placed on sales below expectations. Been an expensive year for everyone I think
