Speculation on future gigs/tours

[Nipso]

In the iHeart Radio interview Matt was asked how was the album 7 writing, and he said "wow, well, we're quite behind". I take that as "we haven't written anything yet", so my guess is that they'll actually start writing/recording after the tour is done, just like they did for the two previous albums. The only difference is that this time the whole process might take less than one year from recording to release and that they might finish touring by July, if it's not the V festival the one they're doing.

 

I guess it all depends on how long they take after Australia, Chris said in one interview that they already have a lot of ideas, and Matt's said they've got some things, so I think there's stuff there, but perhaps not as much as they'd've liked.

 

If they've finished writing but haven't finished the mixing etc by next summer, I'd say it's a possibility, especially with V being proshot; I think they've said the reason they don't play new stuff before the release is because they don't want fans' first listen to a song being a phone recording (E-werk gig being down to I suppose).

Matt's comment was in the IHR interview a few pages back, I think.

I'd rather Muse did Hard Rock Calling Festival. Suppose I could do V if my uncle still gets residents tickets.

 

Sadly wont be Hard Rock Calling. Its been axed

That option's clearly out then.

it says above at the page now:

''update: however Live Nation look to keep 'Calling' next year''

 

So maybe still another rock festival with ''calling'' in it or so.

e- werk was so close to the album release, though, and they didn't change the songs.

I see the cell phone issue being much less than playing songs live before they are finalized, and having them be substantially different when they do get released, or having the band never release them at all (or only later as a B-side.)

 

That said, Follow Me on album was a let down for me after Follow Me at e-werk, no matter how shitty the recording was.

Well I'm just hoping for the 20th Anniversary tour here in the UK, with them doing much smaller Intimate venues... Really missing them after following them on their stadium tour, I just want them to come back down now.

[SebasD]

There are so many possible festivals.. It doesn't have to be a festival in the UK if they're already doing their 20th anniversary tour. Rock Am Ring is still possible or Rock Werchter (would be the 40th edition with Muse headlining for the 4th time etc). It's a bit too early to guess which festival they're playing maybe since we have no clue about the possible headliners for the major festivals in Europe.

[imaginary friend]

Well, when they finally do hit the road behind the next album, I'd expect them to be utilizing something like this: http://vimeo.com/75260457#

Wouldn't mind a new "questions and answering" on Twitter to get an update on those Russian/Swedish/Danish gigs for 2014.

Stockholm, end of March. One gig.

Or two. One in Globen and one in Fryshuset as a gift.

Which will be cancelled and moved to Copenhagen a week later.

i think rock im pott could be one of these two festivals. the promoter (MLK) is very big and last year there was a rumor muse will play... maybe this year.

Some time ago, a few weeks back, i saw a rumored line up for Rock In Rio (Portugal and Spain, not the one in Brazil.) and Muse was on it. not sure what to make of that, could be that one too. I'd LOVE Rock Werchter to be the one... the greatest festival i've been too! (i haven't been to that many though )

Uk could be the place to do a festival, but there are many other big festivals to play. But yeah, we don't know what headliners could be at major festivals in Europe yet... we'll know in a few months i guess!

My old teacher was at their last show at Fryshuset.

 

OT: It would be really nice but sadly I'd say it's just wishthinking.

A Dublin gig in the new year is looking quite likely now, or at the very least is a definite possibility.

Because of that lecture Matt is doing? Dunno, feels weird that he went to promote a gig.

I'd say it's more that he was going to give the talk, then decided to organise a gig at the same time. Going by their reputation and their website, it would seem very possible that it was actually him that asked to visit and speak, as opposed to them asking him.

Would be even weirder imo.

Ugh Globen.

[ryanp16]

Would be even weirder imo.

 

The fact that he's even giving a talk is weird. Also why do it at that particular university? Granted they played the end of year ball here in 2000, but that hardly makes a difference.

 

But more importantly I want to know what the hell he'll be talking about...

Wait what? What have I missed?

Matt is giving a talk at my university. When it is, I'm not sure yet. They're a bit reluctant to tell me but I'm digging. My guess is between January and March. As for what he'll be talking about, not a clue...
