  1. Ballet The System https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST4g5xqyKPs&feature=player_embedded 'Panic Station' https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ballet-to-music-by-muse-band#/story Здорово! 'Explorers/Hoodoo/Unsustainable' C'est génial! 'Ruled by Secrecy' Das ist ganz toll! 'Apocalypse Please' Brilliant! 'Exogenesis Symphony: Redemption' Terpsichore + Euterpe = MUSE x 2
  2. NBA will likely release its 2015-16 fixtures by mid-August. I do not believe Muse was able to schedule gigs in Europe during the fall because other superstar acts like 1D, U2, and Madonna had already booked the available arenas. U2's current tour first leg 2015 played only ten cities in North America but with multiple night stands in each market including 8 shows at MSG. If an act wants to save on stage set up, crew, and transportation costs, perhaps Muse should consider a similar arrangement and schedule one or more gigs in geographic markets which will attract close to sold out arenas (10k to 18k) in: Los Angeles/Anaheim (Staples Center or the Forum) Oakland/San Francisco/San Jose/Sacramento New York City/Northern New Jersey Chicago/Milwaukee/Indianapolis Detroit/Ann Arbor/Grand Rapids/Windsor Boston/Hartford Philadelphia/Pittsburgh Wash DC/Baltimore/Northern Virginia/Richmond Dallas/Tulsa Houston/San Antonio/New Orleans Seattle/Portland Phoenix/Tucson/Las Vegas/Albuquerque Toronto/Hamilton Montreal/Quebec City <10k arena break-even possibilities: San Diego Minneapolis/St. Paul/Sioux Falls/Fargo/Omaha/Des Moines/Winnipeg Columbus/Cleveland/Cincinnati/Louisville Denver/Salt Lake City St. Louis/Kansas City Miami/Fort Lauderdale/Tampa/Orlando Atlanta/Nashville/Raleigh/Charlotte Vancouver/Edmonton/Calgary
  3. What an awesome mind-blowing experience to see and hear Muse perform live at the Mayan!! Happy to hear Assassin and Apocalypse Please live for the first time on HD satellite TV if not in person since I missed out on the lottery tickets like so many other fans. Thanks to DirectTV and Guitar Center for broadcasting 80 minutes of the almost full set without commercial interruption. It will be repeated on the Audience channels multiple times next week starting on Sunday for those who missed it or forgot to record it. DirecTV has about 20 million paying customers in the USA and another 20 million customers in Latin America including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Ecuador.
  4. Five Reasons Why Muse is the Rock Band of the 21st Century: http://www.culturaocio.com/musica/noticia-motivos-muse-banda-rock-siglo-xxi-20150711101858.html English Translation courtesy of Google: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://www.culturaocio.com/musica/noticia-motivos-muse-banda-rock-siglo-xxi-20150711101858.html&prev=search
  5. An exclusive clip of Muse performing "Uprising" Live at the Mayan Theater in Los Angeles. @Guitar Center and @DIRECTV are proud to present @Muse Live at the Mayan, a 90 minute concert special, airing July 10th on DIRECTV Audience channel 239!
  6. Listening to and greatly enjoying new @muse record https://twitter.com/tmorello
  7. Today's Muse gig will take place at the new Otkrytie Arena (Spartak Moskva) venue with a capacity of 45,500. This stadium will host some of the scheduled FIFA World Cup matches in Russia in 2018. Over 25k fans attended Muse's last show in Moscow back in May 2011. Latest Park Live Festival ticket availability: About 700 tickets remaining
  8. David Fricke gave it a 4/5 rating at RS. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/albumreviews/muse-drones-20150609
  9. It appears the top ticket price for the upcoming Pearl Jam gig is 680 BRL close to what the promoter is charging for Muse. If fans do not purchase these premium price tickets, the promoter will be forced to lower the prices or lose money on the show. Actual box office numbers for some high profile acts' gigs which took place last year in Brazil by the same promoter: Artist/Venue/City/Country/Event Dates/Gross Sales/Attendance/Capacity/Shows/Sellouts/Prices/Promoter One Direction, P9 Estadio do Morumbi Sao Paulo, Brazil May 10-11, 2014 $9,457,730 102,792 / 102,792 2 / 2 $270.27, $90.09 T4F-Time For Fun One Direction, P9 Parque dos Atletas Rio de Janeiro, Brazil May 8, 2014 $3,826,760 40,087 / 40,087 1 / 1 $269.02, $94.16 T4F-Time For Fun Eddie Vedder Citibank Hall Sao Paulo, Brazil May 6-8, 2014 $1,660,250 11,495 / 11,660 3 / 1 $358.74, $44.84 T4F-Time For Fun
  10. For US Viewers: NBC-TV will broadcast highlights of the Pairs and Men's World Figure Skating Championship in Shanghai on Sunday April 12. As noted previously, Duhamel/Radford from Canada skated to two songs from The Resistance and placed first and won the Gold Medal while Russian Maxim Kovtun skated to another TR track 'Exogenesis Symphony Part 2' and placed 6th in the free skate and 7th overall after a disappointing short program. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWKfrH3OsVQ I also heard 'Madness' twice in the month of March while at the local supermarket doing my grocery shopping.
  11. ISU World Figure Skating Championships in Shanghai, China Pairs Free Skate - Canadians Duhamel/Radford skate to Muse medley (NSC, IBTY, and Uprising) and win the Gold Medal on 26 March 2015. Watched on Universal Sports Network in the USA on DirecTV channel 625.
  12. If you are in the USA you can watch two encore broadcasts of Rock Legends featuring Muse on American satellite networks DirecTV channel 340 or Dish Network tonight 9 March 2015. Also check your local cable TV provider to see if AXS-TV is offered in your area.
  13. Will Muse schedule shows at the O2 arena this fall? Several acts (1D, U2, Imagine Dragons and Madonna) have already booked multiple dates at the venue from late September thru early December 2015. The best possibilities appear to be mid-October or the 2nd week in November. Foo Fighters recently played several stadium gigs in South America attracting over 165k fans in Brazil alone. There is a market for rock music there so Muse will likely schedule several shows there on the next Drones tour. The Global Citizen Festival (now being curated by Chris Martin) will take place in late September 2015 at Central Park in NYC and no headliners have yet been announced. If Coldplay don't perform, Muse could be a possibility if it does not conflict with their soon to be announced 2015-16 arena tour dates.
  14. Possible Los Angeles venues for the new album tour (likely multiple dates at one arena and/or one stadium date): Staples Center (Muse has sold out 5 concert dates previously during the last two tours) The Forum (Muse sold out one show in 2007) Hollywood Bowl (Coldplay sold out three shows during the last tour) Dodger Stadium (AC/DC is playing there in September) Rose Bowl (1D sold out three dates last year, U2 one show in 2010 and Depeche Mode one show in 1988)
  15. http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6443774/stuart-galbraith-kilimanjaro-pulling-sonisphere-ed-sheeran Interview with Stuart Galbraith of UK promoters Kilimanjaro Live: Billboard: You recently announced that Muse will headline Sonisphere Switzerland and Metallica and Faith No More at the Italian leg. Has the rest of the bill for those events been locked down? Galbraith: Not yet. We're in the process of booking. If they were secured we would have announced them. There is a perception in the industry that [announcing acts] is held back. That's not my experience in regards to Sonisphere. As soon as we have something confirmed we will announce it. Billboard: How are ticket sales for those two European events? Galbraith: Italy goes on sale this week. Switzerland is very strong. We're very, very pleased with it. We have opened up as strong as we have ever done with Sonisphere in Switzerland.
  16. The talent booking agent for Muse, Marsha Vlasic, exits ICM. Muse and Metallica now share the same management (Q Prime) and agency (AGI). http://www.pollstar.com/news_article.aspx?ID=813704 Matt is one of the musicians interviewed for the new book on rock trio Primus. Muse played a riff from 'DMV' at the Oakland, CA gig attended by Les Claypool in early 2013. http://www.akashicbooks.com/catalog/primus-over-the-electric-grapevine-insight-into-primus-and-the-world-of-les-claypool/ British rock duo Royal Blood, whose sound is influenced by early Muse, had their Mercury Prize nominated first album bow at #1 on the UK album chart with 66,000 copies sold in its debut week according to the Official Charts Company. http://musicvita.com/are-royal-blood-the-band-that-muse-fans-have-been-waiting-for/
  17. "The song 'Clocks" is for our old friend Matt Bellamy, one of the greatest singers in the world" - Chris Martin who sang a snippet of 'Madness' during the performance at last week's private KROQ/Beats Music gig in Los Angeles and also dedicated 'Viva la Vida' to our young friend Harry Styles who was also in the audience after 1D played three shows at the Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena for over 165,000 fans. http://www.coldplaying.com/coldplay-ace-hotel-la-review/ http://www.musewiki.org/Coldplay #devolution
  18. AXS-TV (Channel 340 on Direct TV) in the USA on 20-21 April 2014 34 minutes of the 19 April 2014 Coachella Muse headliner gig were broadcast on the pay TV channel. Songs broadcast were: Hysteria Bliss Animals Unsustainable Time is Running Out Uprising Survival
  19. Dom and Chris talk about their Sunset Strip rock club experiences. Matt recovering from laryngitis was absent saving his voice for the Coachella gigs. The interview was broadcast on the Clear Channel iHeartRadio Music Awards on NBC-TV in the USA on 1 May 2014. Three of the artists (Muse, the Black Keys, and Cage the Elephant) featured on the My LA Story segments are Q Prime clients. http://www.nbc.com/iheartradio-music-awards/video/iheartradio-music-awards-my-la-story/2778510

  21. How many people watched the "Panic Station" video (10 second snippet) that aired during the GRAMMY Awards last Sunday? According to TV Media Insights, the 9-9:30PM portion of the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, which featured performances by Swift, John Legend, P!nk and Nate Ruess, drew the highest adults 18-49 and viewership marks of the show. That half-hour, which also included the award presentations for Best Rock Song ("Cut Me Some Slack" by McCartney/Nirvana) and Best Pop Solo Performance ("Royals" by Lorde), drew a 10.9 rating with 31.211 million viewers in the USA per Nielsen. Music by Muse featured in two successive Olympics: 2012 London Olympic Summer Games "Survival" Official Song broadcast at selected events on various international TV networks "Map of the Problematique" Excerpt - Opening Ceremony 27 July 2012 "Uprising" Excerpt - Opening Ceremony 27 July 2012 "Survival" Live Performance - Closing Ceremony 12 August 2012 (broadcast worldwide except NBC TV in the USA) 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games "Exogenesis Symphony Part III (Redemption) Instrumental - Figure Skating Men's Free Skate Long Program by Jeremy Abbott scheduled to take place on 14 February 2014 with the Figure Skating Team competition concluding a few days earlier on 9 February.
  22. Muse and "Panic Station" will get TV exposure at this year's GRAMMYS unlike last year when the Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song category winners were announced at the pre-telecast ceremony. The Black Keys swept the three rock field categories a year ago. The GRAMMY for Best Rock Song will be presented on the live telecast tonight along with nine other categories: 4 General, 3 Pop, 1 Country, and 1 Rap.
  23. British artists Paul McCartney, Adele and Black Sabbath will likely win Grammys on Sunday January 26 while Muse, Coldplay, and the Rolling Stones are long shots. Imagine Dragons (who covered Led Zeppelin and Beatles songs in Las Vegas before making it big) are favoured to win Best Rock Performance with "Radioactive" over "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin. David Bowie is also in the running in the competitive Best Rock Album category along with QOTSA and KOL. Only one rock category Grammy will be awarded in the televised ceremony since performances are more important than the awarding of trophies. 56th Annual Grammy Awards performers include: Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Taylor Swift, Lorde, Katy Perry, Madonna, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Kacey Musgraves, John Legend, Keith Urban and Gary Clark, Jr., plus pairings of Jay Z and Beyonce who will open the show; Daft Punk with Nile Rodgers, Pharrell Williams and Stevie Wonder; Kendrick Lamar with Imagine Dragons; Metallica and Lang Lang; P!nk and Nate Ruess; Robin Thicke with Chicago; Sara Bareilles with Carole King; Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson and Blake Shelton; Billie Joe Armstrong with Miranda Lambert; and Queens of the Stone with Nine Inch Nails, Dave Grohl and Lindsey Buckingham who will close the show. Presenters include: Yoko Ono, Black Sabbath, Bruno Mars, Julia Roberts, and Jared Leto
  24. Jeremy Abbott won his fourth U.S. men's singles title at the U.S. Figure Skating Championship held in Boston at the TD Garden this weekend. He chose Exogenesis Symphony Part 3 (Redemption) by Muse in his long program which was broadcast on the NBC television network in the USA on Sunday. He may use the same music at the upcoming Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia in February if he is chosen for the U.S team. By the way, Abbott used the same music during competitions in 2011-12.
