  1. Unfortunately If you are happy with Muse, and enjoy their latest album and don't get het up about what they play in their setlists, there seems to be either two options, take the flak after making a positive post amongst the sea of negativity or don't post in those kind of threads at all, and allow it to appear to anyone outside reading the thread that the negativity in relation to Muse is a lot more prevalent than it really is.

     

    To be fair, the amount of threads all about the awesomeness of muse songs is at least equivalent to the number of "The Resistance isn't that good" threads. People are always saying what they're beginning to appreciate more about muse songs and what ones they've rediscovered, but because this is a muse forum when people state what they personally dont like (which is usually done in a reasonable manner) others are always going to disagree and this spawns more discussion. Personally I enjoy reading more of the beef threads as they're more interesting to read then everyone agreeing about how awesome muse are, regardless of the fact that I agree with the latter usually.

     

    Oh and I actually enjoy both sides of muse, modern muse i find to be far more fun and accesible but still different to most other bands, but older more angsty muse are alot more energetic and their different sides appeal to me at different times and so I can't really decide which i prefer. However, I think that muse need to accept that people do know and enjoy their older music and so, even if they refuse to split a setlist evenly, they should try to include more, or at least more varied "oldies" next tour.

  2. Same here. That one, and Hyper Music seem to be the ones non-boardies keep asking me if they're going to play. I hate having to break it to them. :noey:

     

    I laughed the first time he asked, thinking he was joking. I forget some people don't know that muse have forgotten that showbiz was actually their album and not radioheads.

  3. The point of bringing back old songs to vary the set lists. Muse aren't going to vary set lists by playing songs they haven't written yet, so they must play older material. I am an old fan. I've liked them for about 9 years. I want them to play old songs. My favourite Muse song (at least one of my favourites) is Undisclosed Desires however. But I'd rather them play songs from Showbiz and OoS than the same old single heavy set lists every night because they've become a living greatest hits album. Muse are not one of those bands where the singles are necessarily their best songs. Do not be so quick so generalise old fans.
