  1. This current tour is the Drones tour so there is absolutely no chance of them dropping any songs from their most recent album.

     

    I'm not sure if you've misunderstood my post or the other way round :LOL:

     

    Anyway, yes! Drones tour! I don't expect them to drop any of the current Drones staples. And I'm completely fine with that as like you said, it IS the Drones tour. I'm cool with that. (Which is the ONLY reason why I accepted Dead Inside. Haha!)

     

    I was mainly saying how I thought it was silly for them to include the Drones tour songs on the "choose the song" poll as they could have just left them on the setlist. As it may have been possible for people to vote on something that would have most likely ended up on a setlist anyway. & just seems pointless (for example, Psycho. And Psycho is always on, from what I've seen anyway. I could be wrong :p ).

     

    Okay, that was long.

  2. Surprisingly (or not)... Butterflies And Hurricanes.

     

    I'm sort of impressed! Many are DYING to hear B&H so it's not a bad choice :)

     

    As long as it's something like that or one of the rare play ones like Futurism, Fury, Agitated, Micr- you get the picture then I think it's worth it. (One's like Bliss, CE, etc I feel are acceptable as they are played in some places but not others)

     

    Tbh, I expected people to be silly and vote for the songs that are always on :stunned::LOL:

  3. Jeez.... so much has exploded since this VK Setlist thing (Which I feel I should add, didn't intend on sounding ungreatful in my initial post :LOL: If anything I'm still amazed with the setlist we got back in April but not keen on anyone making false promises in any form That's annoying. And I still agree with what I put about the set list itself, putting staples and Drones D&B/Choir filler is a very silly choice as it just defeats the polls purpose. If should have been a rarity poll only)

     

    Yeah, we all want our rare tunes but some Musers are getting out of hand. Contacting family members of band members etc is just creepy...

     

    Lol, Elle liking Spiral Static? (Didn't know Matt had a new GF as I stopped paying attention after the whole Kate separation thing :LOL:). Good song.

     

    Out of sheer laziness on my part, which song is winning on the poll so far? (I dread to know, haha!)

  4. That list is fantastic. However, it is complete & utter crap at the same time.

     

    It's great how they have included tunes such as "Micro Cuts, Agitated, Defector (for how uncommon it is), Futurism, B&H etc.

     

    However, it IS a kick in the teeth that Showbiz isn't there. I know people say it's because Matt can't sing it anymore but if that is the case...why is Microcuts there? For the lols and Matt thinking noone will pick it? :LOL: Hold on, Dead Star isn't there either...People LOVE that one D:

     

    I also think (main point) it's ridiculous that they've put Drones tour staples on the list. They should remain on the setlist like normal and this "choose one song" should be rarities only. It's more fun that way and stops people for voting on something that would have ended up on the setlist anyway - thus making the poll pointless.

     

    And for fuck sake, WHY is Madness there? That needs to be killed off & don't get me started on why Drones choir/D&B are there... Silly choice. I like Drones choir but are they taking the piss by including that as a choice :eek:

     

    Wait, did someone say that LAST TIME Muse did this, they included TWIN? That would have been amazing!

  5. My first Muse gig was back in April & I was content as fuck with the setlist. (Except Madness). As for songs I would LOVE to hear live, here goes :LOL:

     

    - Showbiz

    - Dead Star

    - TSP

    - MK Ultra (or maybe replace that with Microcuts :') )

    - Defector

     

    So glad I got to see Citizen Erased! It's not my favourite Muse song but it is one I really enjoy! Live however, I didn't expect it to blow me away like it did :)

  6. He did it at all 5 dates I went to as well, think he's permanently changed it. Not sure why but I know he seems to take The Globalist pretty seriously so maybe he just figured that word didn't fit with the tone.

     

    As opposed to something like Reapers where the chorus is so ridiculous it doesn't really make any difference :chuckle:

     

    Really? Great! I was just so pleased when I heard him remove it entierly during that performance. It just made it that tiny bit more awesome

     

    Reapers? It's mad but that wordshould still get killed off :D

     

    I can't bloody stand the word "babe". I dumped a bloke once for calling me it even when he knew how much it annoyed me. It's used so much as a filler word in lyrics and I got right pissed off with it on my first listen to Drones. I shall replace it with "now" instead coz that works well mostly.

     

    Neither can I! Hence why It annoyed me in Drones. Always hated that word & can never bring myself to say it :LOL:

     

    Also, Static Shadows. YES! I forgot all about Pink Ego Box :') That song was just...ridiculous lol

  7. The "babe"s scattered throughout Drones (album) annoy me.

     

    THANK YOU! :D I've ALWAYS hated that & as much as I enjoy Reapers, I hated that so much, just ruins the theme for me.

     

    However, During The Globalist in Glasgow, he removed that word and replaced it with "now". I was pleased :D

     

    Anyway, Silliest Muse lyrics?

     

    "You Fucking Motherfucker"

     

    /endthread :LOL:

     

    (On a serious note, I seen why the "colour verse" in Defector annoys people. Yeah, I get their meanings but it does feel like lazy songwriting at the same time :'). )

  8. Man, I'm still getting spells of "Post Gig Hype" today :LOL:

    Sunday was awesome, I'm still amazed that we got Bliss, Map, CE, SS & TaB in one night :D

     

    Madness was shit though and the crowds reaction proved that. No wonder they dropped it the next night. Still, it didn't ruin my night :D

  9. That was probably down to the board glitch - quite a lot of posts yesterday evening got deleted by the gremlins going awry.

     

    Ah, THAT explains it! I was confused as I wrote some posts last night, (Basically me keeping tabs on the gig, wondering if Madness is actually going to get dropped, dreading the idea of it appearing in the encore with UD, laughing that it IS dropped & then quoting Brello's reply to my post by celebrating the inclusion of TaB).

     

    Anyway, here's the first post I wrote last night which got deleted :) -

     

    Wow, so I was pleased with Glasgow's Setlist (17th)

     

    Map of the Problematique, Bliss, Citizen Erased, Stockholm & Take a Bow? That was amazing!

     

    Only low point was "Madness" It wasn't enough to ruin the show but the crowd pretty much calmed and some folk left when it played - can hardly blame them. Madness is shit :LOL:

     

    Hell, I hate "Dead Inside" & that was more fun live!

     

    My favourite was "Citizen Erased" I was just drawn in, It was spectacular! Matt's mistake was hilarious and I could see Chris laughing! The band seemed to have enjoyed themselves that night!

     

    I'm actually fine with ManHarmonica, I know alot of folk hate it but I'm cool with it.

     

    Mercy with all them effects was a nice touch!

     

    JFK got me excited as I wondered what song we were going to get. In my mind: "Is it a surprise Defector? Assassin 2.0?" & then Stockholm Syndrome played, I was NOT disappointed

     

    In short, fantastic gig! Had an amazing time!

  10. Someone be a dear and take a sign tonight asking for a good set on Sunday for me please :LOL::LOL:

     

    Second! :LOL:

     

    Getting hyped now as Sunday is nearly around the corner & I'm hoping for crowd buzzing tunes! As much as I hate DI & Madness, they're going to be there regardless so I can cope with them. Just hope we don't get UD and Aftermath aswell :D

     

    Hopefully we get Defector. That deserves another go! Or give us Assassin aswell (Not to rub it in at Belfast peeps, That was a damn shame!), Or TSP....Or Showbiz (Lol the last one won't happen but it's a laugh to say it anyway)~

     

    I am curious to know what the last London night is going to be like. Especially with the insane reaction over Assassin last night. Is it going to go out with a bang or not? I'll be keeping an eye out! :)

  11. I don't mind DI so much it still don't know why it isn't in the madness slot anyway, I'd even take aftermath over madness tbh. Yeah I'll be gutted if we don't get TAB either especially with having the chance to go on the Monday aswell but decided against it having seen the US sets. I think one of the Brussels nights, could have been Paris had the best set so far bliss, CE, AP and TAB

     

    Aye! DI should be in the "Madness" slot. It's basically the new Madness but nope, Madness has to be a staple. Whyyy?

     

    Oh dear, Aftermath or Madness? What's worse? x.x (Madness, clearly but Aftermath is on the bad list :'). Jeez, I sound so fussy! But again, I'll be fine, I just hope we don't end up with constant ones I hate is all). I really like TaB so hopefully they keep it on Sunday!

     

    I seen an awesome list myself but I can't remember it right now but that one does sound great.

  12. I will be pretty devastated if I get the UD, resistance piano song on Sunday. I havnt seen CE since 2004 so will be fairly happy if that turns up, got a bad feeling though, can only imagine if they do rotate more songs over the next 2 nights at London the first night in Glasgow may be doomed

     

    Oh my word, I am still hoping that we don't get plagued with the UD rotation! Taking TaB out and replacing it with that is terrible imo! I hope we do get TaB on Sunday tbh!

     

    I'll probs be happy with whatever we get as it's my first proper go at a Muse gig but I'm already prepared to deal with Dead Inside & Madness (I dislike them both. However. DI is part of the Drones catalogue so, I'll deal with that :p) but UD on top? Come on!

  13.  

    We're talking Unintended, Screenager, Blackout, Soldier's Poem, Guiding Light, Save Me and Aftermath.

     

    Unintended, I enjoy. It took a while for me to listen to it at first but once I did, I enjoyed it.

     

    Screenager, I know this one is popular so sorry for going against the mould but, I've never liked this song. It's just not done anything for me tbh! I get bored.

     

    Blackout, Like it. No complaints.

     

    Soldier's Poem - Eh. Not keen on this tbh.

     

    Guiding Light - Shit :LOL:

     

    Save Me: Hm, grew on me the smallest bit after not hearing it for years...but it's not one I like that much.

     

    Aftermath: Bullshit. :LOL: I heard it once and never again :p

  14. Oh my word, to replace TaB with UD? That's my worst nightmare :eek:! I noticed with TaB it looked like it was a "secure staple" for the encore so I thought it may be cool to actually get that same encore (TaB, Mercy and Knights) when I go and see them in Glasgow but.. Damn.

     

    I'll probs be fine regardless but that's a really shit rotation imo.

     

    (I don't love Mercy, I just feel it's more of a live number, hence why I don't mind it. It's a bastard how they don't include Defector though D: )

     

    Everyone dreams for Showbiz but I know that's not going to happen. TSP would be another one I dream to see!

     

    I don't want UD, Madness or Panic Station tainting those lists haha! (I despise all those but Madness will find its way in). I also hate Dead Inside but that's part of the album so I'll accept

     

    Like I said, I'll probs be happy with whatever they churn out but these "Unfitting Interludes" are silly, I'll give you's that!

  15. Showbiz: Falling Down, Escape or Overdue (as I've not listened to them for years, tbh and just never "stuck").

    Origin of Symmetry: Screenager

    Absolution: Endlessly

    BHAR: Solder's Poem

    The Resistance: Guiding Light/Undisclosed Desires.

    The 2nd Law: Unsustanable/Panic Station

    Drones: Dead Inside/Aftermath.

     

    It was hard to choose just one with the past three albums as there has been more songs I didn't care for on those albums compared to the first 4 but I chose the two songs that were my least favourite in those albums. (Even though there is some on Showbiz I barely listen to hence why I put down 3 there.).

     

    I noticed Feeling Good is hated more than Screenager on OoS but tbh, I quite liked their FG cover and was never a fan of Screenager. I found it boring tbh. I understand why people die a litle inside when they hear Feeling Good (continously) but I think Panic Station is worse. I never cringed so much whilst listening to a Muse song in my life LOL

     

    Wow, I'm also surprised that TSP is hated more than Thoughts of a Dying Atheist, TOATA sounds effortless in comparison imo (to all the songs on that album in fact, including Endlessly) but I still like it. I just prefer TSP more. I love the heavy feel.

  16. Crashin' the thread 'ere!

     

    So, I'm hopefully going to see Muse with one of my good friends next year. It'll be my first proper gig.

    I am excited, however the other half of me is like "What the Hell are you thinking?" as I'm not good with crowds, I'm incredibly paranoid and pretty much fear my safety. These fears only started proper (or should I say "pwopa"? I'll get my coat :p) when I finally get the opportunity to go to a gig.

     

    But this is something I've wanted to do for a long time! Seeing Muse live is a fantastic opportunity! I know tips have been said on the thread and I've been pretty much browsing through this thread and there is alot of helpful advice I'm taking on board but I'm going to ask anyway. Any tips for a noob? :p

     

    Oh, and we got standing tickets lol

  17. Ticketmaster was confusing as Hell. It kept refusing to let me get tickets saying they were unavailable but not sold out. I just kept trying and suddenly, the correct info popped up. Ticket's, how many, enter presale code etc.

     

    That was silly I'll give you that but D: for anyone who also suffered with them. I thought I wasn't going to get any tbh! It did take longer than intended to get some.

  18. Don't lost hope! After trying unsuccessfully for hours, I finally managed to get standing tickets for Glasgow! Just keep trying. Ticketmaster is a dirty liar and will tell you there are no tickets left when there actually are. I was having issues with checking out - Chrome kept giving me a blank grey page. If this is happening to you, try a different browser. Amazingly Internet Explorer is what worked for me. Good luck!

     

    This dude ain't wrong. It kept saying it was "Unavailable" for me but I kept refreshing like there was no tomorrow as it didn't officially say it was sold out.

     

    This is what it said when I couldn't get through:

     

    "Tickets are currently not available online for one of the following reasons. Please check back for availability.
