forevermusic Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Huh a tribute band called Mused is playing one of my local music venues on February 12th. Anyone hear them? They any good? ... well at the least they'd be much cheaper than the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanp16 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Whatever happened to that lecture Matt was rumoured to do? Wasn't it supposed to take place in February? Just saw this. It was meant to be in April 2014. It also wasn't just a rumour - it was at least confirmed by the university at one point, but Matt pulled out which they blamed on the unpredictability of celebrities schedules. Tbf they've gotten much higher profile people than Matt before and since; just last week they had Tim Cook in for a lecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conforming-on-a-monday Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 There's a few videos of them up on Youtube. Pretty cringe imo, but I always tend to think that about tribute bands. They don't really seem all that great to me either, I was on their website and the instruments seem off to me. Kinda like their drummer has waaaay too many moongels on his snare, plus their bassist can't seem to get a grip see what i did there on Chris' sound from what I could tell. Maybe its just because no one can really imitate Matt's voice as well as they think they can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Is it just me or does this sound a bit like Bedroom Acoustics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcs5y5k5bHA&t=20s Obviously not very similar, but like at like 0.35 it really hits me.

forevermusic Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I thought "Fuck Mushroom" was a diss at their Showbiz/OoS-era label, but I might be reading too much into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same wankers who didn't want falsetto in Origin and then didn't release the album in USA? Makes sense. ...but you just ruined a wonderful theory.

serpentsatellite Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Does anyone else remember all the pages and pages of theories about how the 0615 on a picture of a drone on Muse's Instagram DIDN'T mean it was coming out in June...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely the next album title. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 iirc OoS was on Mushroom. Mushroom fell apart and Warner took over a lot of their assets. I don't believe Muse really signed on with them intentionally at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite reaction was how everybody were talking about bees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 tbf, people working for the band were posting bee photos, and the idea of the bee drone (even if it's a misconception) and the worker drone DOES fit in with Drones. Everything was a let down after that fake album cover with the Pomeranian in a bee costume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I envision a stage recalling a panopticon-hive, with our three guys dressed as busy bees and surrounded by huge, fake bees with composite LED screens as their eyes flying around and scaring the hell out of the attendees. At the end of the concert, then, they would drop real honey on the grossed out crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be amazed-embarassed-hysterically dumbfonded at the same time with such a concept... But I wouldn't certainly attend a single gig because of the same reasons, too. And if the concept album had used pidgeons as the central metaphorical figure... for goodness sake, it would have been worse to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For reference, how did you feel about live action bankers, chicks drinking gasoline, and that under the stage coffin scene? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stage stunts, they were... fine to me, I guess. A bit weird and off-putting, sometimes (the coffins among them all), but fine. Why are you asking?

Why are you asking? Just curious, nothing sinister. I just thought it was a bit of a low point for the band, myself. Not much they could do would really surprise me anymore, likely.
