  1. I've redone my peddle board! The stomp boxes haven't really changed since my GAS died long before this forum did. But I do have the new Atomic modeling amp to the left. Mostly since I work full time now and can't crank tubes late at night with wall-to-wall neighbors. It's super convenient though and sounds pretty good.

    The board itself is a templeboard which happened to be just the right size to fit everything. The repetitiveness of making patch cables was actually cathartic. Lockdown is getting to me clearly.

  2. I mean that's kinda the thing though right? He's not a robot but he, sometimes literally, acts like one when it comes to the records. This is especially there in more recent albums such as seeing the acoustic Something Human compared to how it ended up on album. I'm not using this as criticizing though, Muse to both its casual and hardcore fans is known and loved for just being extra. There's times when Matt does strip things back but it usually ends up in a kind of playful (or sad) awkwardness. It's very endearing but it's not the 70s style deep emotion from Buckley that we call "soul".

    But at some point it doesn't really matter. You're not obligated to play a guitar the same way it was played before. But then also why else would you go to such lengths to buy that guitar? I don't really know what he'll pull off. I don't even really know where he is in life right now besides content and with land.

    Third song by Matt that reminds people of Soaked. Time to move on!

    I gave it another go. Heard it quite a lot of times now. Still not getting it. 

    What were the other ones?

  4. The forum was breaking when I tried to log in so here I am. I'm going to wait until the proper premiere. It's not long now anyways. I already imagine it's something kinda thrown together but that's ok everyone's doing it nowadays.

  5. I honestly was remembering recently that there was a stadium tour. I had actually forgotten since it was still literally the same show and stage but with a bigger screen.

    There are more discussions happening on Reddit and Discord (mostly associated with /r/muse but there's some others too). But even on those tour discussion died down quickly since there was nothing new to discuss. You kind of realize how much of Main Muse's life was based around following the concerts.

  6. The 2nd Law really fell out of favor didn't it? It's a mess of an album but it is very fun in the moment. That moment was over 7 years ago so all we have is hindsight. I guess its charm isn't enough anymore, but it still sticks around for me.

    Mind you, I'd probably still vote for it.

    It could have been under better conditions. As said I would have really loved to have been part of that crowd cause they were going wild but I had to be way off to the side. It sounded wonderful though. The no falsetto came from the fact that being the last show of the tour Matt was noticeably tired by now.

  8. Not end of the year but end of the tour and chances are I'm not seeing another show this year. Time for update.

    Few notes coming from this:

    - At 3 shows all in a year this is the most I've seen Muse in one year.

    - Second time being at a Muse show with a boardie (@jonisdead) for San Diego.

    - First time taking a personal friend to a Muse show (Oracle) and the only reason I went to said show.

    - Second time traveling out of the country to see Muse and it was for their first ever show in Lima which was special.

    - I got a stomach virus on the day of that show though which made it less special and I regret not being able to be in the crowd

    - I finally saw Bliss (but no falsetto)

    - I've seen one verse, the solo, and the outro of Reapers. I've almost seen the whole thing in pieces.

    - In 2010 at Oracle I saw Matt noodle about 2 seconds of Enter Sandman. In 2019 at Oracle I finally saw them properly jam it at the end of the Metal Medley.

    - The 11th of December of this year will be 10 years since my first time seeing the band.
