Was that for the trip you just got home from or are you talking about the one in October?

Your legs are going to be sooo sore from all the standing/jumping/dancing like a loon. It will be so worth it though. I think you should bring a video camera and make some kind of documentary of your trip.

I guess moving out wouldn't be the best option then! Do your parents know you're going away again? And that's true, about how it's better to miss school when it's not as hectic as it gets later on in the semester. There was only one course I was hoping to get into for September while I'm waiting to get into nursing and I think it's full now, which means I don't think I'll be going back to school... I wish I was going back though, I don't want to get out of the groove of learning/studying/doing assignments because it will be so hard to get back into it when I eventually do go back. On the bright side, if I for sure don't end up going back in September I'll have time to work by bloody ass off and save up for as many gigs and roadtrips as possible come 2010. There's no way I'll be able to restrain myself when Muse finally hit North America.

JEEZ WOMAN... how do you afford it all?!

I'm so excited for you that you got Muse tickets. Franz and Muse within what... four days of each other? That will be the best week known to man.

Why don't you take the semester off if you're going to miss some? Or do you think you'll be able to make up what you'll be missing easily enough?

Headlining tour... I've been saying those words over and over in my mind to stop myself from buying tickets.

Ah, yes. That one never gets old.

Don't worry, I've spent my fair share of days doing that!

You're going to another concert? You go to so many! I hope you have a fantastic time.

So Franz is on October 23rd you say? You could totally stay and see Muse on November 12 and 13th! That would be... glorious.

Thanks for the offer! I will definitely keep that in mind... although, I'm thinking the shows are sold out by now. That's probably a good thing for me though...

No problem! There are more parts to it too, plus other ones with the same host only from different years, they're pretty awesome.

Nice to meet you too! You can call me Wazlib.

Hey! It's from this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRFVt_9Md5g. It starts around the 6:39 mark.

Sounds pretty wild! We've had some scary riots and stuff here... over hockey of course.

It sounds like you're having a fantastic time! Must be so neat going all over. JEALOUS to the extreme. Whereabouts is the girl from Canada from? That's great that she's interested in Franz, good job! Maybe it was my friend (doubt it, but that would be insanely crazy if it was)! I think she got to London yesterday or something. She went to the Keane concert there and I got a message from her this morning saying she got the meet the band afterwards.

Are you planning to go to Germany while you're there now or another time? If you go are you going to extend the length of your trip? That would be sweet if you could go! What performance to do want to see there?

That's exciting how you got to meet those guys and get a setlist!

October, eh? And aren't the Muse shows you're going to close to that time? That's going to be an awesome few months for you!

I really have to urge to drive to Texas to see Muse!

Definitely better that way. It would have tuned into a full-scale riot or something otherwise. Have you been staying in the same hostel the whole time or are you staying in different places every few nights? It must be so cool to meet other travellers from here.

That's great you got to meet them. Meeting other Musers! How awesome is that!? Does your friend actually live in Sweden then? You should go there next! Hope the concert was good!

Brixton would be insane on so many levels. When's the date again? Unfortunately it won't happen for me but I'm still excited about it!

Ooh, that's right, you're going back later this year. Luuuucky. It will be nice having more time to see stuff that you run out of time to see this time around. Yikes, I wouldn't fancy being there after they've just lost! Be careful!

Did you meet up with the others yesterday?

I wish. I'd be out of here tomorrow if money weren't a problem. I've really been feeling the urge to get out and go on some kind of trip/adventure. This year's been such a let down for me and I really need to do something different and exciting!

I know! I think it's because I'm paranoid I'll get a virus or something.

Man, hearing that you're meeting up with fellow Musers makes me want to travel even more! Have you seen the Stonehenge yet?

I used to download lots. But then I got my own laptop last summer and still haven't downloaded a music downloader thing. I listen to a lot of stuff off of youtube it seems.

Sounds like you had an awesome mini Muser meet the other day!

Nah, there's no such thing as too many pictures! I guess there are independent record shops here, they're not too close to wear I live though.

That's good! Have you met any other travelers?

I'm sure it's going to be one big embarrassing mess for all of us, which will hopefully make me feel less stupid.

Aaw, that's so awesome! Tell them I say HI!

Awesome! Hope you're taking lots of peektures. Way to stock up on music stuff by the way - I would have done the same. I hate how they don't sell vinyls here.

That's good! I hope you haven't encountered any trouble yet!

I got a video done today! It's so humiliating and lame but it's the best I could do with the time I had.

When/who will you be meeting?

Hey! How's it going over there so far?

Aw, your mom sounds so cute! I hope she's able to get some sleep eventually.

Damn, I don't have and 3D glasses. I do have these spiffy fold-up ones that I'm planning on wearing though.

Are you picking up a British accent yet?

That's good that she'll be able to send them in. I really do need to get started on mine. I'll get to it this week sometime.

A mini-update sounds cool! Don't waste too much time on the phone/internet while you're there though - don't want to waste what little time you have over there! My friend's in Paris right now but she's going to London in a week or two I think. It would be funny if you somehow ran into each other.

Once again, have fun! Talk to you later.

Your video is going to be so much better than everyone else's, it sounds amaaazing. No, no footage from ze hotel. I posted a few photos in the thread of me jumping on the bed though. I can't believe you're leaving tomorrow! You're going to have so much fun.

You got the videos done, I see? Excellent. Did you get lots of strange looks? Don't worry about being embarrassed, we're all in the same boat. It's going to be painful for me to watch the video once it's made. Ready for the trip?

Yeah, procrastination is not goood. I used to be pretty good at getting important things done as soon as I could. Not so much in my last few years and high school and this year at post-secondary. I'm almost glad I didn't join this board until after high school was finished for me, I would have NEVER got anything done. At all.

Oooh, did you film it already? I can't remember when you said you were doing it. Can't wait to see!

It's definitely nice to have a break and not worry about studying or anything... but at the same time I feel way too lazy some of the time. Don't you hate it when people ask you what you're doing in school? I never know what to say. The arts you say? That would be really cool. I wish I had more talent in that area. Right now I'm considering something health-related.

Nah, probably won't be dressing up. I didn't realise it's kind of a fancy hotel so I don't think the staff would be too pleased with us if we did that. We'll be decorating our hotel room though for my friend's birthday.

Your video plan sounds amazing! You better post it in the thread or else! Don't worry about getting strange looks. A few years ago in my English class some friends and I had to make a video about Julius Caesar and we were wearing togas outside... lots of staring ensued.

I had my exams a few weeks ago, I've been out of school since the 21st of April, muahaha. I only took three courses though because I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with my life and didn't want to be too overwhelmed during my first year of post-secondary school. Good luck with all your exams next week! You haven't missed out on much in the Franz thread, it's been pretty quiet all day yesterday and today.

I'd love to do something like the Ulysses video! That would be so much fun. Some friends and I are actually going to be staying at a hotel one night this week for one of their birthdays... I saw them tonight and told them that we had to recreate the music video for it when we're in our room and jump on the beds and bang drumsticks on the ceiling. They don't know the song though (sigh) so I just sent them the Youtube link for it, haha.

When is your last exam? I guess you'll be leaving for your trip pretty much as soon as it's over, eh? Lucky you.

Anyway, I think I'm going to try and get to bed at a reasonable hour for a change. Night!

Oh my goodness! He's going to need an eyebrow massage. Actually, he'll need about 1094324 of them.

5 classes? Good luck with everything! How can you have a test in PE? Aw, PE. I miss that class.

I think I would scare the neighbours if they saw me wandering the street trying to look like a thug or homie or whatever they call them these days. That's a good idea though...

Can't wait to see these glasses of yours!

Hehehe. Well, not me, sadly, but by the sounds of it most of you guys have had that pleasure.

Good luck with your finals! What are they on? I'm not sure if I'll keep it, it's quite lame. Then again, I can't think of anything else.

Wear the glasses!

Oh, I certainly do. I wonder what it would be like to be them and see what we all say about them.

You sound like me - I'm not fond of being on camera either. But this video is going to be so amazing, I know I'll regret it if I don't do it. Besides, I think I was the one who suggested we all do one together, wouldn't look to good if I decided to back out. I don't have anything special planned really, we'll see what happens. Dutch wants three videos from everyone so there's lots to do. Too bad I'm not that creative, hmmm. I just did a practice one... I was dressed up like a "gangster" or whatever they call them, HA! I was so worried my mom would come in my room right in the middle of me filming myself!

Since they've been meeting all these Franz Musers I wonder if they ever come on this forum to see what it's like. It might frighten them a wee bit. I guess it was Liberty's post I saw then - hopefully it's true! Are you taking part in the Franz lip-sync video?

Stonehenge will be so cool!! Have fun with the itinerary when you get around to it.

Yes! It would... no, it will be amazing when all of us get to meet each other in AZ. And I think I remember seeing someone post that Franz would be coming back, hopefully that's true!
