  1. Aw. Don't worry about me though; my sister lives in Porz-Westhoven and it's her birthday today so I'm spending it with her, then Muse tomorrow and a bit of sightseeing in Monday. I love this place so I was right chuffed when I got a ticket
  2. Can't help with parking I'm afraid. If there's any meet up going on let me know?
  3. I'm torn. I hate festivals and I'm on my hols in April but if Radiohead are confirmed I might have to give it a go...
  4. Sometimes you can see the "Oh god not again" flash through his eyes....
  5. It'll be the support band at 8 then Muse are usually on about 9.30 I think?
  6. Nothing But Thieves supporting. I'm up for meeting up beforehand but I don't speak any German I'm afraid so I'll be a bit quiet
  7. Muscle Museum New Born OR Citizen Erased Hysteria Map of the Problematique Uprising Panic Station Reapers OR The Handler
  8. I've always been partial to "You will be the motherfucking death of me". With added giggling.
  9. Wheeee! I'm a cultural vacuum Still cheesy though. The Bard invented cheese. It's true.
  10. Holy shit. These are beautiful. Can't wait to see what you do for Origin and Absolution. I adore City of Delusion.
  11. ...yeah, that's what I was trying to say but apparently didn't Dead Inside is one of the few Drones songs that works for me outside of the whole concept thing, possibly because it's the first song and is setting up the narrative of the album so you don't need any backstory for it to make sense? I kind of like the creepy emo asshole-ness of Dead Star Not sure what that says about me... Is supremely cheesy, but...y'know, Knights. It works but oh god it's smothered in Parmesan.
  12. I reckon that's more how the villain has moulded our protagonist into a carbon copy of him/herself rather than thinking s/he personally is the greatest. The 'ex' character has magic in their eyes, is ablaze and alive etc. but all along they're dead inside. As our hero says, "I've become just like you" - they're not great at all; it's the image they're portraying to the rest of the world that's great when actually, they've been turned into another soulless drone. (Dead Inside describes my ex so accurately it's frightening. I had my personality eroded away over almost ten years by someone who everyone thinks is fantastic, but shows a totally different face when it's just the two of you. I also get to work with him and hear our colleagues saying what a decent bloke he is. I've stopped being quiet about it. Dead Inside gives me many feels on this subject, along with Handler.)
  13. Personally, despite knowing the Showbiz angle, right from the very first listen The Handler hit me very hard emotionally. I am NOT saying anything about anyone, this is purely how the song speaks to me, but as a survivor of an emotionally abusive relationship I find it an exceptionally moving piece. Showbiz itself has moments for me as well; I've been unwell this week and it's left me a bit mentally battered and I listened to it today and the sheer size of the thing blew me away. I'm not quite sure how someone so young wrote that. It's immense.
