  1. So I finally got the confirmation my bundle of the new album has been shipped... today. ... 5-7 days expected for Europe (I'm from Belgium). So that makes perfect sense when pre-ordering the album on Muse official website and getting it delivered 1 week after its freaking release in the worst case. This is the 2nd time they do this and I can't find a right reason to better thank loyal fans. Why can't we at least get a digital version to download on the day of release so we can listen to this new album in decent conditions, instead of listening to it on a streaming app ? And why can't they somehow manage to ship them so us, fans who preordered months ago the album, get the album on the day of release ? I chose to buy directly from their website so I believe this is somehow to their advantage as well, instead of buying it on Amazon or even in a local store. I guess by doing this they get a higher margin on the sale price probably. And still, this is the "thank you" we get in exchange ? Why... ?
  2. Well, I unexpectedly received the album today ! So, besides the fact I'm glad it didn't get lost on the way, I'd like to complain about the mess it's been and the complete nonsense this whole thing is. I'm aware ppl managing or moderating this forum won't be able to help but I hope the many unsatisfied comments from fans will allow to improve things in the future. First, my album was shipped on November 05. The album has officially been released on November 09. I received my PRE-ORDERED album on November 19 - 2 damn weeks after shipment and 10 days after the official release. What the hell is the point of pre-ordering an album if I'm getting it 10 days after the damn random person buying it after stumbling on it by chance while shopping ? What the hell about customer service ? It's just silence. Is there anyone on board or is it just a dead end ? Lame from Warner to behave like that. No Brexit here, the album was shipped from NL. 7€ for that. Wow... On a side note, I don't understand why when pre-ordering the album I get to download new singles released up to that date but cannot get to download any new single released after that ?! Also, why couldn't we download the full album on the official release date so we could enjoy it, even if the ordered physical copy was still on its way to me ? Are you willing to stop ppl from illegally downloading or not ? When pre-ordering, I long hesitated between Amazon + their low shipping costs and here (official webstore) with higher shipping costs. I voluntarily picked the official store thinking the margin would be higher for the entire Muse "business" than via Amazon and therefore voluntarily payed more for the shipment. This is not the first time I pre-order from Muse store but the first time this happens. To be honest, I'll think twice before ordering from the official store next time. It's been quite a shitty experience, totally unacceptable and quite amateur. Finally, I'd like to highlight the fact I'm not an isolated case as I've seen many other fans (from Belgium as it was the located "sponsored" ad) complaining about not receiving the album neither.
  3. Especially when fans have access to pre-sales... They must know they're doing that shitlist on the precise day fans from the official board come. And I'm picking the "shitlist" word intentionally because I was there on Saturday and throwing at me USoE, Starlight, Madness, UD and Revolt one after the other is definitely not the best thing to do. Also keeping Dead Inside and Madness in the same setlist is kinda stupid IMO because they're both songs with the exact same structure. Lucky us we still got PiB, Hysteria and TiRO, and they always keep KoC to close the gig. Also, as I was in the standing floor area, I must say the crowd has been particularly disgustingly bad. Only a few of us was jumping around and singing. The rest was just standing still and barely dancing a bit. I even stopped jumping at some point because I thought I was pissing off most of the people around me. I also got feedback from a few fans they got punched + random elbows because they were jumping. This is crazy. Really the worst gig I've attended so far... Finally, I'm wondering if this bad experience is due to the fact it's a small venue and part of that first phase of the Drones Tour or not. I'm looking for the big stadium Tour to come back to Belgium and hope things will turn out in a better way than they did on Saturday. Went there with 2 friends for whom it was their first time attending a Muse gig and I must say I'm hoping they will go for another one later because it was definitely not the experience and memories I wanted them to keep.
  4. TRY AGAIN !! I'm buying 4 tickets right now !!!
  5. So it seems I won't get any ticket. Standing or seating, nothing worked. To be honest, I'm pissed off because if they allow presales but only allow a very little quantity to be sold, there's really no point in doing this.
  6. Impossible for me to buy tickets. Either standing tickets or not, it says it cannot find adjacents seats. When I tick the option saying I don't mind non-adjacent seats, it tells me it cannot find any. Always an issue with this kind of sales... A real pain.
  7. Thanks but I have learned playing piano in a music academy and I'm pretty bad at playing randomly with something only based on chords like this. :/ It'd be nice to have piano sheets. But thanks for your answer tho, it's nice of you. Is anyone willing to make a transcription of this video (TaB again) ? [YT] [/YT]
  8. Hey guys, I've made a research but didn't find anything about this so... I'm looking for piano sheets or piano arrangements of the TaB intro Matt used to play. Here's what I'm talking about : [YT] [/YT] The small thing played before Space Dementia starts. Does anyone have the sheets for this, pls ? I've checked on Google and so on but can't seem to find it... :/
  9. Would it be possible to add amp settings for BH&R and TR ? I don't have precise wishes but then I'm sure I have good settings advice when I start learning one of these songs. I for example play KoC, Exo-Politics, SMBH, Uprising, TaB and Assassin from these albums. I tried to find the right settings but I feel like I'm always getting close but never getting it right. Thanks a lot
