I met Chris in Teignmouth a couple of days before the homecoming shows. HE'S A LEGEND!!! he was trying to sign my OoS CD, but it was chucking it down with rain, so he went into a shop and tried to sign it, it came out a little faded, but i still have it!!
my advice would be to go to Moltrasio, Italy (where Matt lives) when muse arent touring. just look for George Clooneys house, and matts is right next door! if italy isnt for you, then stalk muse in Teignmouth sometime. i live closeby and its a very nice place full of muse heritage, visit the cavern as well, its amazing!
