Hello! Welcome to the boards! I see you play cello. There is definitely a connection between Muse and classical music. I have a Bachelor of Music, but mine is in singing. I sang with some choirs/orchestras in Dayton and Charlotte, NC. Who have you played with? This is my first time joining a board and seeing what that is all about and it's been really fun! Only 10 days until the concert - you will have so much fun!! Lora

I love your pic of Chris = so sexy!!

Hi Rowan! Nice to see another Mom on here! Where are you in Ohio? I'm in Dublin (Columbus). Are you doing the Columb show as well as the Cincy one? We have quite a group on here going to both so it should be fun! How old are your kids? Mine are 9 1/2 and almost 7. Lora

Ok, now I've found a handful of us over 30, so we will have fun together at the shows! Tell your wife she should go too! November is so very far away!

Hello! Hey, I'm doing GA for Col and seats for Cincy too! What time do you plan to line up for the Col show? I really don't think I can handle getting there in the morning. Especially if it is raining/snowing. I was thinking more like 2pm. You? Are you getting a board shirt? Gretchen and I will, but I'm still trying to figure out what to put on the back before ordering! Is your hubby going to the shows with you? Are you taking your girls? Gretchen is taking her 8 year old, but I'm leaving mine with my parents for the weekend. My 6 year old is mad, but I don't want to have to worry about them and want to concentrate on the awesome experience of seeing MUSE twice!! I totally think we should have a get together for the "older" Muse fans at some point, but will wait until it gets closer to plan anything!

Hello! I see you are also in Dublin and are going to the Columbus show in November! And I see you were at the Lifestyles show back in 2006. That was the first (and only) time I saw them and it was incredible! Does your wife go with you to shows and love Muse too?! My hubby is a big fan although he is tiring of my complete obsession lately! I need to relax a bit until we get closer to November! It's good to see I won't be the only one over 30! lol!

Hello! I was reading a GA vs seats thread and saw you on there. I'm 39 and a stay at home Mom. So, did you end up doing GA or not? I did for a smaller MUSE show 3 years ago, but now I'm having second thoughts about the Columbus gig. I have seats and GA and can't decide, but my friend wants to buy whichever I don't use and I can't make up my mind. Any advice?!

haha! My creative brain wasn't working either! I saw a few pics of people with them, but never saw their backs. I want to have something on there if that is free to add print on the back. I like the idea of MUSE and then dates/cities. I was going to just put "Yes, I am obsessed with MUSE!" lol! Still deciding. My hubby will probably think I'm a dork for getting one, but oh well! If I do GA, I gotta have it. I'm still debating on GA for Columbus. If I had better seats, I'd stay in my seats. I can handle GA at 39 years old, can't I????

Hey, are you getting a board shirt? I looked at the site that sells them and there is room to add other stuff to the shirt. What should we add?!

I've been searching for better all day. I'm really not happy with this concertmaps because people after me got way better seats, but now I can't find any better, so we'll see. I'm going to try for more tix each day to see if I can get something better. My hubby says just be happy! Here's what I got:

Columbus - sec 122, R9-12 (picked up 2 for a friend) AND 2 GA tix

I think I'll do GA for this and wave to tons of presalers in section 122!

Cincy - sec 128, K14 and 15

Wow, you are taking your 8 year old?! That's awesome and brave! My 6 year old is mad that she can't go and my 9 year old said she would like to go, but isn't quite as upset. I would love for them to see Muse, but then I was 14 or 15 before I saw my first concert! I'm def leaning towards seats for Columbus and then sitting in line for GA in Cincy. But we'll see which tickets are better tomorrow at presale!

I've been dancing around the house and screaming all morning! We are definitely going to both shows and make it a Muse weekend!! Will you do GA? I'm thinking maybe real seats for one show and GA for the other, but really unsure. Only 2 days to decide with the presales!! We have to meet up at the Columbus show!

I love that you are getting your daughter into good music! :-) I have 2 girls ages 9 and 6 and they both love Muse too. And I know what you mean about feeling old on the boards sometimes, but that is part of the fun because it is different from my Mommy life.

I was desperately watching everywhere Muse went and couldn't get to any of those shows either. I was out of my mind the night they were in Detroit knowing they were so close! We saw them in Columbus on the last tour and they had hit Cleveland the night before, so hopefully they will come to Ohio somewhere this fall. Very anxious to hear dates and places!

Nice to meet you!

Hi! I was reading a thread and saw a 38 year old in Columbus and had to say hi. I'm a stay at home Mom - 39 in Dublin!
