Morgan Nicholls should be an official fourth person in Muse! Discuss

[tyechan]

Morgan seems to just be such a big part of Muse's live sound, I feel sad for him having to not get any glory for what he does!

[theanatomyofguns]

I think he should, but doubt it will happen.

[Tracybs]

No.

[Carrotie]

He gets glory from fans like us, and fans who don't know of him, well he doesn't need glory from them because they're not pwoper fans

 

I like Muse being a three piece, thankyou very much

[Emaaa]

I Like Muse as a Three Piece Band.

 

Its not like he isn't recognised. He does a good job at what he does. But he is backing, i couldnt see what he would do if he was an official member

[Carrotie]

you spelt fourth wrong, tyechan, you fucktard.

[Judderman]

ye i think that is a good idea, but i think the reason he isnt, is beacuse he doesnt want to be part of the media attention.

[lyricalwax]

you spelt fourth wrong, tyechan, you fucktard.

 

err.. actually he(/she) didn't.

 

edit: just saw the poll. sorry, my bad.

[tyechan]

he!

 

umm ye i did actually in the poll question not in the thread title

[Finlay]

Muse are known for making such a fantastic sound as a three piece. Morgan is helping in loads of other bands such a Gorillaz (bassist live and such), so I think it would be a but strange. He's their synthist so he's more of an 'editor' of their music. He doesn't write lyrics or anything, just helps put in sound effects and helps out live.

[Lickle_Pickle]

No.

 

To the point, as always Twacy

 

But I must echo her answer. I like that one of the things that really makes Muse stand out is the fact that they're a 3-piece.

 

(plus think of the press shots...Chris and the 3 midgets...Dave Seville with Alvin and the Chipmunks )

If he plays a significant role in the studio next time they record something then yes.

 

If he continues to only play with the band live, no.

Exactly.

[Pip]

My BF plays drums at gigs regularly for well known singers/groups, he has no expectations or aspirations to become a permanent member of those groups though and I doubt anyone would recognise him.

He's a session musician.

 

Isn't that what Morgan is at the end of the day?

[Tracybs]

To the point, as always Twacy

 

Yes.

[Lynzi]

Muse are Matt, Dom & Chris

 

end of

 

Yes Tom, Morgan and Dan are additional band members but they wont be official ones I don't think. Although it would be nice but I don't think it'll happen.

[cheese on toast]

Maybe he doesn't want to be an official member. *shrug*

[Max]

Maybe he doesn't want to be an official member. *shrug*

 

That's probably what it is.

[Sue]

No. If he only worked with Muse it might be different, but he is independent. Many bands hire backing singers and musicians for both studio work and live performances. It's like a company hiring an independent contractor to do specialist work as needed, rather than employing the person full-time. I gree with others who have said that Muse is a 3-piece outfit and that's part of their image and appeal.

[Pistol Star]

If anybody should be an official fourth member, it's Tom. He's been with them from the start, and is practically considered as such by the pwoper fans anyway.

[Muse_Fan21]

I thought he just helps out random ppl. Isn't he supposed to be touring with Lily Alan? or did he do that already. + he didn't even work on The Resistance so its not like its his music

[memerdommie]

oh, no no no.

Morgan should be the member of live.

not the official fourth member.

 

[i knew it Morgan, but i'm sorry. i'm still love you:happy:]

[Erica-Jane]

I love Morgan, and appreciate what he does for them live...

But Muse have managed to make fantastic music as a trio for this long now, so I think they should stay a three-piece

[matthijs]

wow this is an epic bump...

 

He shouldn't be in the band as he's not a part of the creative juices flowing in the muse drink

 

but I have a strong feeling he's coming back on tour; he was tour manager and bass player for lily allen, but in the current live videos for her there's a new bass player. might mean that he's practising with muse again to go back on tour.

He was her tour manager? I knew he was a multi-instrumentalist, but I didn't know he did things like that.
