    Certainly. But it means more to the fans if he says something personally.

    THERE! Now, that wasn't hard, was it Matt? A personal statement to the fans makes all the difference in the world!! I take back calling Matt a dick. He's completely forgiven. Thank you Matt!

    He's getting porked.

    Yes, yes -- this! The age reference was only about being old enough to get into clubs. I did not intend it to have anything to do with 'age and wisdom'!! But then I was reminded that earbuds are injecting high volumes onto the eardrums of kids (and adults), and are equally as damaging as loud live bands.

    Any stage diving at that show? In the 90's THAT was intense! I never did it myself, but it was common. Does that still happen at any shows?
  6. jdeboer01
    Because someone who is 18 years old probably hasn't done a hell of a lot of clubbing yet, that's all. I couldn't even get into clubs when I was 18. (I'm lying. I had a fake ID, which wasn't difficult to do way back when. Maybe it still is easy??? ) Also, I guess it did get passed me that he was saying he saw Lightening Bolt at a club. Apologies. ETA: Okay -- this is how OLD I am. "Walkmans" didn't even exist yet in my early 20's! So I forgot to consider iPods & such, and those obscenely loud sub-woofers in cars that set off parked car alarms. I'd be DEAF today if I grew up in the 2000's!

    Kueller, this is NOT AT ALL meant to be patronizing, but you're young yet. The MOST damage is from rock shows in smaller clubs. Yes, arena shows are loud, but clubs are louder. Trust me. I saw Kasabian a few months ago in Philly at a mid-size club, and I didn't plug my ears. I kid you not -- that was one of the loudest shows I've ever been to. Certain notes resonated so loud in your chest and head, that you swear you were going to pass out. It was fucking crazy. NEVER AGAIN! Plug 'em!

    Consider yourself lucky. I have persistent Tinnitus from going to gigs in my early 20's, and playing guitar cranked up too loud. I was using earplugs (usually just part of a paper napkin from the bar) since my mid/late 20's. Not everybody gets the "ringing" in their ears after shows, but if you do, it truly interferes with your sanity. One important thing about being in the pit at shows, is NEVER wear long earrings. I've seen many ripped earlobes at shows. I somehow don't think the pit at a Muse show will be nearly as rough as for some other bands, but expect to have your personal space violated, and don't even THINK about being in the pit if you're claustrophobic.

    So, when will we find out about U.S. dates?
  10. jdeboer01
    Yea -- posting that on twitter or whatever was, ummm,..... not so bright. I guess. If he wasn't 100% sure of the set list, then maybe he shouldn't have posted that. That being said, I'm sure we can expect some seriously accurate and truthful "leaks" soon.
  11. jdeboer01
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that what the fans want is quite simple. Scale back the stage presentation (nix the towers & shit) and mix up the setlists with more rarities. Oh, and play more than 15 songs.
  12. jdeboer01
    They HAVE to know that their fans really, really, really want to hear it. It's hard not to get pissed off that they basically give fans the proverbial finger by soundchecking it, and then not playing it.
  13. jdeboer01
    Soundchecked it? That's fucking cruel. If they're using it for sound checks, then they can play the song in their sleep and they really don't have an excuse NOT to play it. They play the song everyfuckingbody wants to hear when only they can hear it. That's so fucked up.
  14. jdeboer01
    Yea. Personally, I don't need to see a band a zillion times. I think the most I've ever seen any given touring band is 3 times -- over a period of years. That's just me though...
  15. jdeboer01
    Like this: (and yes, I mean standing -- general admission)
  16. jdeboer01
    Cool. I plan on shelling out for pit seats, as this may be the only time I see them. I'd much rather see one show up close then lots of shows from the rafters. Pit seats -- a smallish section directly in front of the stage. Almost always General Admission. Not all venues have a "pit" area.
  17. jdeboer01
    Anyone know what online re-salers were getting for pit seats?
  18. jdeboer01
    What was the ticket situation like for the TR tour? Is it fairly easy to get tickets, or do I need to stress out about it?
  19. jdeboer01
    Not sure what your point is Sippe, but Piss off.

    I like it too. It's the greased back attempt to HIDE the hair that's so off-putting. ETA: This is hawt:
  21. jdeboer01
    Lots of male actors and musicians have long hair. Ozzy went to the WHCD years back with his hair down and red streaks in it. Anything else wouldn't be Ozzy, right? Celebrities shouldn't try to be something they're not at public appearances. Seeing Matt attempt to blend in with that crowd at the WHCD makes me cringe. The fact that he was there at all is
  22. jdeboer01
    I don't care how cute he is. The hair is utterly George Clooney is too.
  23. jdeboer01
    Or to troll us. Quoting myself from a page back....
  24. jdeboer01
    Maybe someone told him about the comments we'd been making lately about his needing some help with his "goatee". Could it be this is his way of saying, "Okay punks. You don't like my facial hair? How much do you hate it now?...... Huh punks? Hate THIS!!" He's flipping us off!! Okay Matt! Ha ha ha! We get it! (You can shave it off now..... pleeeeeeezz)
  25. jdeboer01
    What's with the hair?
