  1. Must be some Irish song. I hope so. Sing for Absolution would be really nice.
  2. But please, how could you not have known it would be mayhem. My friend tried for London and could not get through even as he had the special code for 08 Am. He was just not prepared enough. And then the tickets for Manchester were also waisted. If you want Muse tickets, then organise yourself. I took the whole morning off from work. Had all my accounts on Ticketmaster and Tixr active. Pumped up my creditcard. Still I was maybe lucky. But if its Muse.... and you want a standing ticket at face value, then you really have to be prepared. My ticket for Dublin was 83 euro plus fees 90 or so. Tip, keep on checking for availability. Good luck.
  3. Claudia, I will bring my Muse flag with me and you know, Absolution is my favourite. but hey I'll be happy if they play some gem over there. Must be.
  4. Oh my! I'd dream of that snogging hahaha! When I got into the waiting room about 8:50, at 9 I was transferred into the queue with about 1600 before me, so I had not my hopes up very high. But by 9:08 it was all done with standing tickets at face value. Went very smoothly for a change.
  5. 14 and 15 september 2019 also 12 and 13 november 2009, 26 and 27 oktober 2012 and maybe more - source MuseWiki
  6. Have been to so many, it's not easy to choose. In 2002 I saw them for the first time on Pinkpop, but I don't remember much of it (ahum festivalvibe...) and was not going there especially for Muse, but after that I really started following their music. Only in the last 10 years I have been able to go to as much gigs as I (and my finances) can afford. It's quite an expensive hobby to have.... And I can write a book about all the adventures and fellow Musers I encounter when I'm going to a Muse gig. So I made a selection. Don't know if there is a 'worst". Maybe the worst was June 4 2013 in the Amsterdam Arena. But that was due to the terrible acoustic in this venue, and not because of Muse. Also the roof of the venue had to be closed, so a lot of the fireworks could not be done. But I was still blown away by Unintended and a beautiful Sunburn on the piano and lost my voice for about 3 days. I'm so happy they chose the Ziggo Dome for their future gigs in Amsterdam. Also one to remember March 7 2016 in the Ziggo Dome Amsterdam. The Drones Tour. For the first time I heard Citizen Erased live, and I really cried. That week I went to Cologne at March 6, Amsterdam at 7 and 9, but that concert on Monday 7 was the best of the three of them. That evening I also met one of my (now) best friends, and since then we often go to Muse concerts together. Very special one was June 27 2019 in the Goffertpark Nijmegen. Went there with my two sons (then 15 and 13 years old). They said to me afterwards: "we don't like their music when you play it at home, but live they are really good." Especially KOC made a big impression on them. Also one to remember 15 September 2019 at the O2 London. Just a few weeks before that I randomly checked if there were still tickets available, and to my surprise there was a standing ticket. Just for me, it felt like. That evening I managed to get on barrier, and well that was amazing. Filmed Stockholm Syndrome from up close. Buzzing. It was my last Muse gig before Covid came. But the gigs in small venues are really special. As was December 3 2018 at the RAH in London. As they tried out a lot of the Simulation songs, but we also sang Happy birthday to Chris, and oh my God: Showbiz and the metal medley. In such a venue, wow that really was amazing, felt so privileged to have been there. Let's not forget May 9 2022 at the Apollo Hammersmith. I had broken my arm just weeks before, and it was still in a cast, but I just had to go as I also felt so lucky to have gotten a ticket for that show. On standing level, I did not want to go in the pit because of my arm, but still had a blast. And it was so hot in there. Oh the excitement seeing Muse after 2,5 years, with no Covid restrictions and new WOTP material. And then also The Gallery and setlist was just great. Think this gig is my number 1 up to date. Latest I have to highlight was May 27 2023 at the Home Park in Plymouth. Show was incredible again, but no gems were played as expected. But for me being at a concert at their "Home Ground" (well nearly), made it extra special, and of course I've been to the mural in Teignmouth a day later. Made a sort of holiday in Devon from it. Not bad for a fan coming from the Netherlands. Next autumn the journey continues as I'm going to Dublin on September 27 2023. Who knows what they will bring then.
  7. Oh yes, I wish I had been there, but sadly missed out on tickets. Would easily have been my number 1 also!
  8. Got the pre-sale code around 00:00 AM on July 5, hahaha! But had no worries and bagged standing tickets for Dublin, excited to go!!! Price was also very reasonable, about 90 euro (83+fee). But stay and transport will cost me though 😬.
  9. Hope so much they will also announce Amsterdam Ziggo Dome for next fall... Otherwise I will be tempted to go to the UK again. Just checked price for my standing ticket for the O2 in sept 2019: 75 GBP
  10. Altijd word ik zo blij als ik dan opeens al die Musers zie opduiken overal op de dag van een gig. Maakt niet uit waar het is. Dan voel ik me helemaal thuis, hahaha. Kan nu alweer niet wachten tot de volgende...
  11. You make beautiful creations. Merci beaucoup (that is about how far my French goes). Can you make something like that with the band, or is it only Matt you're interested in?
  12. Hahah, zeuren is ook een vak. Ik heb zulke leuke mensen weer ontmoet in Den Haag.... En ook in Plymouth een week daarvoor.
  13. Musers, ik lees vanmiddag allemaal dingen over de enorme geluidsoverlast in Den Haag vawege Muse. ??? Ik ben wel pas net wakker en moet nog een beetje bijkomen van gisteren, maar joh, zo erg kan het toch nooit zijn geweest? Zelfs mijn vriend hoefde zijn oordoppen niet eens in. Het was toch echt weer geweldig en van mij had het nog wel een uurtje langer doorgemogen, hahaha.
  14. 1999, I just moved to an Island with my boyfriend and we were scrolling through our cd collections, he had Muse Showbiz, I had Nirvana. Muse and Nirvana stayed with me, the boyfriend moved to other music. Muscle Museum the starting point.
  15. Nou, angstaanjaagend stil op het forum hier, Inmiddels heb ik Muse afgelopen zaterdag gezien live in Plymouth of all places. En over een week staan we toch op het Malieveld.
  16. I was! Yeah we're Muse and we're from Devon! Hahaha . ..
  17. Are you going? You must be. Wie gets? Du sollst yeder nah. Is this sold out? Ist es ausverkauft? The link is not visible.
  18. They will play the usual and in the US probably no rarities. But hey, with your dad, that is awesome. Im hoping to go with my son next summer...... Oh yes waiting for Knights.
  19. Gisteren heb ik eindelijk mijn vinyl preorder van WOTP ontvangen.... Ik kende ongveer de helft van de nummers al, maar toch.... Nu na een paar keer luisteren, durf ik ook pas de recensies te lezen over dit album. Nou, ik viel van mijn stoel door de negatieve reactie van Govert van de Volkskrant. Is het echt zo slecht en vlak? Naar mijn mening niet. Ook andere recensies zijn niet echt lovend. Terwijl ik van alle nummers echt geen een slecht vind. Ik vind het juist een geweldige plaat. Maar misschien ben ik bevooroordeeld omdat ik live al heb gezien en gehoord hoe lekker "Kill or be Killed" is. Kan niet wachten op we are Fucking Fucked live. Wat vinden jullie?
  20. I only saw the cover and video by chance, and well OK, I will not ever give a response again on this topic. I feel very humiliated in public for nothing. Thank you.
  21. Sorry, but I saw some Muse song title come along, and I did not know if that was only for musicians. Sorry, my bad, nothing ment to obscure.
  22. Thats Ok, but every time I hear Map, then, my mind goes everywhere. And Map of the Problematique is one of those Muse songs that are classic to me, but I guess we'll have to wait another 15 years for the release.
  23. So hey, dont steal our personal chat would you. It's a very emotional song, not played live a lot after 2015 or so.
  24. Echt he Doos, dat is toch wat. Nu mijn andere zoon nog, hahaha! Nou, we gaan elkaar hopelijk zien in Den Haag. Ik had gelezen dat jij kaarten hebt voor Carre, nou, ik geef er de wereld voor. Zelf had ik ze ook voor Berlijn, maar moest er helaas van af zien..... diep verdriet, maar het komt goed straks als ik naar Plymouth ga, dus ach. Ik ben al verwend qua Muse met the Apollo en de Tempelhof. Maar ik zou er wat voor geven om ook in Carre te zijn. Nou ja, het kan niet altijd feest zijn. https://youtu.be/5piBA1ZAbPc
  25. Ik moet dit toch even delen, sorry: uiteraard had ik woensdag al tickets voor het Malieveld. Vandaag komt mijn zoon (17) ermee en die gaat ook. Ik wist dat helemaal niet. Ik heb hem meegenomen naar Nijmegen 2019 toen hij 13 was. We hebben allebei dezelfde hoodie nog van die tour. Dat is toch geweldig! Dan voel ik me wel een klein beetje blij als ouder qua muzikale opvoeding! BLISS.
