    I hadn't seen it either! One of the few TIRO performances that comes across as awesome live. Everything about the vocals in that was great

     

    I think my main problem with it live is the guitar doesn't sound beefy enough. Like maybe he should just do power chords in the chorus, and then in the second verse which sounds massive on the album, doesn't quite do that for me live...

     

    I'm probably talking shit here, but if they transposed it down to Drop D (if you even can change it to that) or even Drop C then I think it would sound better live, and Matt probably wouldn't find it so hard to sing, he seems to have been struggling lately. But yeah I agree, the guitar has never sounded as beefy live as it does on the album. Although, I think there were at least three guitars in the album recording, which explains a lot.

    I've always loved TIRO since it was the first Muse song I knew' date=' but I've never really seen a live performance that does it justice. I'll try and find one now[/quote']

     

    Yeah same, it was the first muse song I properly liked, and if it wasn't for it I probably wouldn't be into them as much as I am now.

    What?? D: say it ain't so!

     

    Well, what happens a lot with broadcasted performances is that they're edited after it's been aired, and this may have been the case here, especially with the two different versions of Bliss from the same show that that version of Hysteria was played.

    Haven't heard of that. Tbh I think they still use as much, just Morgan flicks them on and off.

     

    Never noticed that Live 8 footage though! Was quite surprised. I imagine Bellamy was going a bit crazy with his performance, but for the DVD they wanted a 'proper' performance like the studio version so put a guitar recording from a previous performance over the top

     

    I think one of the oldies mentioned it in another thread. It was basically things like, instead of Chris playing the TIRO bassline properly, he'd just play the clean part while they used the distorted stuff from the album as backing etc. And yeah, that's what I thought about the Live 8 stuff too.

    2:19 is some kind of sustain/repeat effect they used on matt's line, and this thread hasn't turned into "Best Playbacks of Any One Song," right? :$:LOL:

     

    :LOL: No, I think it's the vocoder-y backing. I should hope so anyway! Although it was known that during the absolution tour they were using a lot of backing tracks and such, and it was only after pressure from fans that they stopped doing it.

    :ohmy: Playback? It can't be. I knew about Muse before Live 8, but this performance was the reason I got into them. My love for them is based on.. a lie. I feel my soul crumbling (no pun intended) a bit.. oh dear! :'(:p

     

    I don't know, one of them just seems to be edited. Perhaps the people doing the TV broadcast overdubbed parts of the performance or something. I expect that Muse were actually playing live.

    looked at 'em again, and it seems like some of the videos have another audio layer on top

     

    this one, for example:

    1. at the beginning, it sounds like he's scraping down from the top of the neck--definitely not what matt's playing.

    2. notice where his hand's at at 2:30--definitely not the riff you hear

    3. you can hear a second guitar doing a bend at 2:36--probably what matt's actually playing.

     

    Wow, you're right actually, that does look like playback, especially at the beginning and the riff before the solo, like you said. :noey:

     

    And I see what you mean about Bliss too, it's odd. There's definitely something funny going on there, haha.

    aren't the performances from that gig playback? was watching hysteria at live 8, and matt's playing doesn't match up with the sound at all sometimes--the riff right before the solo, for example. would make sense out of why the guitar didn't sound farked up at all even though he twipped :LOL:

     

    I don't think so, it was probably just lag on the video uploaders' part. I'm pretty sure Bliss wasn't, it was different in a multitude of ways to the album version, it even had the falsetto :awesome: But I'll have a look at Hysteria.

    Speculation on future gigs/tours

    So, with the OoS gigs now confirmed to be featuring OoS from top to bottom at Reading/Leeds, do we think the US fans attending Muse shows between now and then going to be treated to a few rarities? Dead Star, Space Dementia, Hyper Music, maybe a bit of Showbiz? :)

     

    Maybe some from OoS, but I wouldn't expect much, if any from Showbiz. I think the few songs that ever got played at gigs that were from Showbiz are about to become very few and far between.
