  1. TR Tour was a sleeping pill. The performances were solid, but stale and suffering from Matt's fear of losing his voice (dropped pretty much every song that had notes above G4 in chest voice), and of course the consistently mediocre setlists. At the time, their energy levels were surprisingly low as well, but that's something I've come to expect nowadays, so it doesn't look as bad in hindsight.
  2. Arpeggio* "An arpeggio is a group of notes which are played one after the other, added either going up or going down. Executing an arpeggio requires the player to play the sounds of a chord individually to differentiate the notes. The notes all belong to one chord. The chord may, for example, be a simple chord with the 1st, (major or minor) 3rd, and 5th notes of the scale in it (this is called a "tonic triad"). An arpeggio in the key of C major going up two octaves would be the notes (C, E, G, C, E, G, C)" Basically, looks like this http://www.coniferguitar.com/Scales_for_guitar/page9/page11/files/CMajor_arpeggio_6th_1.png and sounds like this: or this: or this; Basically every Muse song has arpeggios. EDIT: In Destroyas case, he has been to 4 gigs it seems. So his setlist begins with a song from gig 1, then one from gig 2, one from gig 3, one from gig 4, then he goes backwards. A song from gig 3, a song from gig 2, a song from gig 1, and then back up again.
  3. And this is the problem with a club tour. People will always think it's unfair that they can't go, so Muse would have to end up touring for 5 years to please everyone. OR people could just understand the implications of a club tour, meaning not everyone is gonna be able to see them. You don't go from stadiums to clubs without leaving a few people out.
  4. Let's just insert every country and spare us all the edits.
  5. Can't really use that format since I've only been to two gigs but here is a playlist out of those two: 1. Overture 2. Uprising 3. MOTP 4. SMBH 5. Hysteria 6. New Born 7. USoE 8. Cave (piano) 9. Undisclosed Desires 10. Starlight 11. Plug In Baby 12. Time Is Running Out 13. Unnatural Selection 14. Stockholm Syndrome 15. Knights of Cydonia 16. Unintended 17. Bliss 18. Take A Bow (I was at one of the poor gigs that got Guiding Light instead of CE)
  6. I was just coming to post this somewhere (Warning, loud) God I hope Matt gets back into the piano soon, for more than just the occasional cheesy ballad. Especially since he used to write a lot of the melodies for the rock songs on the piano, and the fact that he says he hasn't really paid attention to the piano in recent years leads me to believe that this is not the case anymore. Obviously just speculation but I do think it has affected their material.
  7. You mean kinda like being aware that Muse can't cater solely to hardcore fans, but thinking that it shouldn't be that hard to put a few rarities into every set instead of doing them all in one gig unannounced?
  8. Yes we can deny it. We're not lucky to see a band do their job. Music is a business, and Muse are letting us PAY for a product. We're not lucky, we're consumers. Muse aren't choosing to play for us out of the goodness of their hearts. They're making a living. I do think it's silly to complain about Muse and keep going to see them live. But for me, I'm not gonna start paying money for what they're selling until they give me something I'm interested in. And I'm not saying Muse should give me what I want, btw.
