  1. The Cathouse and Polo both offer free entry for those who went to the gig beforehand, by the way -- I love the idea of a Muse after party
  2. Pretty much all my favourite live versions of Muse songs are very early after they were released, so I'm really hoping the festivals will have awesome feeds like ACL had.
  3. Fair enough, but I wonder why..? The crowds seemed less into it than for the previous two tours, and of all the pro shots we got from the T2L era (iTunes, ACL, Personal...), none of them seem as solid to me as, say, any 2010 performance. I can't really pinpoint why, though.
  4. Also, the two times that Muse have released an album before or around festival season, they've played some UK festivals that same year. I might bet £1 on the 8/1 odds for Glastonbury 2015 ^_^
  5. Unsustainable and IS were both written with the T2L tour in mind, I am sure they'll both be dropped next tour.
  6. Wait, so the fact that they have in-ear monitors during the Showbiz era doesn't necessarily mean they had a metronome..? Suddenly I'm not sure I understand what monitors are for
  7. Ok, the Shepherds Bush one does sound a bit weak, but as a general rule, I still prefer versions like these http://picosong.com/YfWX/ (at 3:45) rather than the standard 'watered-down' reverb effect (terrible description, sorry) we usually get like here:
  8. Jesus I had forgotten how good that one was, thanks! KoC is the only song I can think of for which I prefer less vocal effects rather than more during the first hald -- imo, any other song is improved by adding, and I'd love to hear Survival with distortion.
  9. I'm not sure whether it's the effects on Matt's voice or just the awesomeness of that scream, but Trabendo's first "I wish I could" is my favourite ever. Actually, make it my favourite Matt scream. http://picosong.com/ciTL/ (at 2:00)
  10. It took me ages to finally hear the falsetto in the last chorus (not something to be proud of, as it sounds completely obvious now -_-), but the fact that I had to listen to that song so closely for a long time means that it grew on me like no other.
  11. I realise this is far, far from ideal, but here's the 2nd half of the song as I had recorded it just in case somebody wants to listen again to the awesome ending. http://picosong.com/Pfzv/
  12. It's the built up excitement from the previous gigs that must have made it particularly cruel for those who attended... Like, Perth got Hyper Music, Adelaide got Bliss, and Melbourne got Fury + CE -- making Brisbane remarkably anti climactic.
  13. Eventually, only videos from this year's Coachella festival will remain, then...
  14. ...and yet, on the other hand, both performances of Micro Cuts this tour have been muted. I don't think I had ever had seen amateur shots being muted before -- how are we supposed to prove SpiralStatic1 wrong if they disable access to some of Matt's best performances? I am so so confused by this as well. For now, here, we don't seem to have problems with TiRO, but Stockholm Syndrome has definitely been targeted in the last few weeks... Do they just cherry pick songs off some albums, then?
  15. I still prefer this interpretation to "Warner will tweet about any NME article which features Muse"
  16. I mostly meant it tongue in cheek, but from what I remember, Warner has never really endorsed, nor commented on any fan 'campaigns' before. The fact that they claim to be supportive of this petition, when they know pertinently well that the band won't do a 20th anniversary tour seems to me to be an attempt to look like the good guys while going against the interests of Muse; as this coincides with a time when Muse seems to want to drop Warner, I'd say the tweet is passive aggressive
  17. Yeah I did realise I wouldn't get much sympathy from US YouTubers, with that post... But I definitely feel your pain, now :/ Ugh, if Warner still own rights to Muse's back catalogue while being butthurt that they haven't renewed their contract, it doesn't bode well for the future.
