Having been in many a Muse moshpit, I don't know if my house would survive!

Ticketmaster was a nightmare for me, I was 3149 in the queue at 0900 which went down so quickly, but then after picking tickets and confirming details when I clicked pay it took me to an error page. I did this 3 times getting the same error page and then it changed to showing no tickets to select. I succeeded in the 1pm Tixr presale though (assuming that wasn't a scam email? I've never heard of them), and will be going to MK Bowl! Does anyone know why MK was so much more expensive than the other venues?

I'll be aiming for MK Bowl tickets. It's nice to see some different locations on there, make it a bit easier for those who usually have to travel ages for any gigs, but I am also hoping they'll add a few extra locations/dates in the gaps...

I'm sorry to hear that - it came from the WOTP email the other day yes? I hope you manage to get some tomorrow. I'm in an in-person meeting tomorrow so if I hadn't got them today I would have missed out.

I've spent the last 15 mins confused, rechecking my ticket constantly, wondering if I've doine something wrong in booking cos that was so easy and only took a couple of minutes. Have Ticketmaster upgraded their software?

I see loads of people on Twitter complaining about this but the Muse and Warner Twitter accounts aren't replying. The 'Contact Us' form gets no reply either. No discount and for me it won't even give the free shipping once I log in to my UK account with my UK address on it.

Has anyone else been having problems with the 15% off apparel and free shipping in UK offer? I sent a message to the shop support on Monday, and asked Warner Records on Twitter but got no answer yet. I asked on the Muse Twitter post promoting the offer too but no reply. I deleted all cookies, tried different browsers and different machines, but it always displays shipping and full price at checkout for me. I even got someone else to try it on their work machine and for them it displayed no shipping at checkout but didn't take the 15% off.

I was thinking standing tickets. I hadn't realised how extortionate seate tickets were.

Ah, I've never seen Muse seated apart from RAH (where I probably assumed the extortionate price was for 'charity gig' and small venue). That is so expensive for a seated ticket at a gig.

This was such a good gig, even if I ached from the mosh pit for a few days after! I loved the setlist, especially Bliss and I swear BITM had slightly heavier guitars live. I wish they'd do some full classics rather than the medley, but as at RAH I'd rather the medley than nothing. I hadn't seen Tom Morello announced so when he appeared in the crowd it was pure disbelief and such an amazing atmosphere. The venue was terrible, and getting out was awful too. The queue leaving was held at a standstill multiple times, it took half an hour to get to Stratford Intl, and there was no queue or crowd once the station route split from the tube route.

I saw standing tickets for £75 each at O2 and Brum? Yeah that's a lot of money for a ticket compared to other bands, but it's the same price Muse have been for a few years now and they certainly spend their money on the staging.

Am I missing something? £75 per ticket is the same it was for the Drones arena tour. Same price Muse tickets have been for the last 5 years or so?

As far as I saw the only merch was the one-off t-shirt. No Simulation Theory merch until the tour begins properly. Some of it is already available online on the Muse shop but they usually keep some for just the tour, or only put online what's unsold at the end.

I am still processing last night, I think I'm a bit in shock at how amazing it was. On the day I managed to change my gallery standing ticket to a stalls ticket in block G row 1. I was a handful of seats away from the stage and so close to them! Arena standing near the front would have been amazing, but this was the next best thing. I loved the setlist. I had been hoping for Algorithm to open with and I've always loved Psycho live. When Showbiz started playing I just couldn't. And BITM is my favourite off the new album, I had said earlier that I'd love to hear that live but didn't expect it to be played. It was even better than I could have hoped for. I enjoyed the medley - having the full tracks would have been better but that's not going to happen, this is better than not having them played at all. Stockholm Syndrome and Dead Star were phenomenal, and The Handler is my favourite off that album. With the enhanced packages for front rows of standing, I personally feel that at a charity gig where the idea is to raise money for the charity then protesting inside was not the right thing to do but I don't agree with the reserved standing for enhanced packages on the regular tour. That's the time and place to protest it IMO.

I am so excited now I actually feel a bit queasy. It's gonna be almost 5pm by the time I can get there from work, I guess I'll be pretty far back in the queue by then.
