  1. Yup. Mercy has been the only underwhelming track for me.

     

    Starting to wonder if this might be the first Muse album that sounds better in studio. The production, instrumentation and Matt's flawless vocal delivery really take the songs we've heard so far to another level.

     

    I much prefer Mercy live, particularly the Jools Holland performance

     

    I'm not a massive fan of the layered chorus vocal that is more prominent on the studio version

  2. After reading the conversation about the 2nd verse lyrics, this is what I hear,

     

    "war, war just moved up a gear

    I don't think I can handle the truth

    I'm just a pawn, and we're all expendable

    Incidentally, electronically erased, by the..."

     

    "Incidentally" seems strange though, it could be "in to..." something.

  3. solo definitely sounds st vincent-y

     

    not the rest though

     

     

     

    Good track overall. Bad album opener though...

     

    The guitar part towards the start is very St Vincent, admittedly the second half of the song isn't

  4. They were, but I wasn't too far from them during Knights and I didn't notice that happen, so maybe it's a different couple. Knights was that crazy though I couldn't tell you for sure. Pretty sure I elbowed someone in the head by accident during that one. I'm sure there are a lot of people feeling very sore today

     

    I just remember her having frizzy ginger hair

  5. Wow I'm glad we didn't wait for the band to come out then. We were going to, but decided a Mcdonalds was a must as we were practically dead from the amazing Setlist. I don't think I've ever been so sweaty!! Would have been awful to discover the car had been robbed that late and then head home. As it was I didn't get home until 1:15.

     

    Thankfully I'm currently having an easy day at work. I must have got a bit carried away bouncing as my left foot is totally buggered. I didn't notice the girls on fbook despite that sounding a similar area to where I was stood. I did have an annoying couple in front of me though who didn't jump, or move, or generally seem to be enjoying it at all. Some lad was behind me pushing me slowly forward (which was fine by me as I'd have loved to have been closer) but there was no getting past this couple who were clinging to each other for dear life. I don't get why people even bother standing in the first 10 rows or so if they don't want to get involved in some way. Everyone else in that area seemed great though.

     

    Were the couple a bit older than the usual demographic? :LOL: I think I was stood next to them. She got clobbered on the head by a crowd surfer during Knights

  6. Was sweating my tits off so much, wore a leather jacket with 2 t shirts under that. Got into the queue at 6 but got so close. Dead Star was absolutely insane, wasn't expecting it until the person behind my in the queue showed me a tweet saying that it was soundchecked. Best gig ever, so much fun - but felt I was going to collapse during Bliss, the crowd was so intense by that point. Starlight is such a killer though, but it was nice to have a breathe!

     

    There came a point when I thought I'd had to leave for water, I just stuck with it even if that meant standing still as everyone one else was jumping.
