[Muse featured in Professional Sound magazine]

Working in the radio industry in Toronto, came across this magazine today. It features a 4 page article about Muse's live stage setup, and mixing. Nice and detailed too with interviews from engineers Mark Carolan and Adam Taylor.

 

Scans are below....

[Bank of Muse]

You can put them in one of the drawers in your desktop table...

 

or just in your drawers, then confuse strippers with them.

[The Scariest Muse Songs]

Personally I think Guiding Light is the scariest, I've never run out of a room faster when it came on.

[What would make a great opener/closer?]

Take a Bow and Take a Bow.

New "reward"!

These have to be some of the lamest rewards ever. WE WANT PRO-SHOTS!!!

[Muse.mu SHOP Sample Sale tshirts]

ooof, that Madness one is horrendous!

[Bank of Muse]

Hope they give us a pro-shot of Micro Cuts in Montreal from this past April.

 

Let's all hound Tom on twitter for it to be a reward from the "bank"

oh

 

and as hard to see the Muse logo as it is in the picture, it's 100 times less clear in person.

 

I mean.... it's amazing! Who wants to trade!?

[Muse.mu SHOP Sample Sale tshirts]

I love the green one but I'll stick to my one

 

it's not green, it's grey I might actually like it if it were green.

[Muse.mu SHOP Sample Sale tshirts]

Wow,

 

Well I got screwed in the sample shirt sale.

 

Anybody wanna trade?

 

[Muse.mu SHOP Sample Sale tshirts]

Long way to Toronto! Please keep us posted

 

fingers crossed that I don't get any TR or T2L era shirts.

[Muse.mu SHOP Sample Sale tshirts]

I've ordered 2 of the shirts, yet to receive them though!

[Bank of Muse]

They should send us rehearsal videos of them trying out Muscle Museum in the studio

[Tattoo]

"Pure hearts stumble

In my hands, they crumble

Fragile and stripped to the core

I can't hurt you anymore"

[Time for American stadium gigs]

If Muse can do 2 shows in Toronto, then surely they can fill out BMO field here. It's a smaller football stadium that the MLS team plays in. Seats about 22k, wikipedia says it can fit 28k for concerts, and would be perfect.

[Speculation on future gigs/tours]

Agreed, Muse would sell out the Home Depot (soon to be StubHub) Center. If they have a strong opening act, they might even be able to pull off a baseball stadium. Even with Rage they weren't able to sell out the LA Coliseum, so I think our football stadiums are too big.

 

The Coliseum seats 100k people..... Not fair to compare other football stadiums to that one.

[Speculation on future gigs/tours]

Matt said that they would like to do acoustic music:happy:

 

hasn't Matt also said he really likes Dead Star?

[Speculation on future gigs/tours]

Matt mentioned on twitter there would be 3 shows in the state of Florida in February.

 

He also told me in person that they would be in Toronto on April 9th.

 

That's all we know so far.

[Best Live Performance of any one song]

For me it has to be this

 

where the heck is this from!?!

[Which Muse song have you recently discovered or rediscovered the awesomeness of?]

Take A Bow! ( I always knew the awesomeness of it, just rediscovering it personally)
