I first heard about Muse from my ex in 2001, he played their songs down the phone to me! It was the next day that Origin of Symmetry was released - so I've been a fan for a long old while.
I'm a psychotherapist because I've always had this innate need to be of some use to the human race. I also received therapy at a difficult time in my life and I've seen the amazing good therapy can do in helping others to realise they don't have to be anything more than themselves to be happy. I saw the good in that and I wanted to be a part of it. Not much else about me to say really. Hopefully I'll catch some Muse gigs on my way to enlightenment!
