chudenk Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Guys, I flew all the way from Moscow, Russia to see the beloved MUSE!! I was just 5 minutes late to buy a ticket in June at the pre-sale and now I am in Madrid and I still don't have a ticket... Please, does somebody of you have an extra standing place ticket? I would pay loads of money to get it!!! Please, don't kill my dream!!.. http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?p=9849359#post9849359 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicadey Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 My God what an amazing gig. Felt like the only brit in th e crowd lol. Much prefer them to over UK audiences. Less violent ;-) but anyway best gig they have done even though Matt tripped on stairs.. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellapod Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Great gig, shame about the security. Despite queuing since 1.45am the door security held us back then shut the door in our faces to stop us going through. Managed far right barrier but only just. Plus the security by the stage refused to give water despite multiple boxes of bottles by them. Only when survival, the last song came on were we given a 250ml bottle to share with 4 people. Apart from that, the queuing crowd were great and friendly, Matt tripped, Dom lost a drumstick while playing and laughed, songs performed well, am so looking forward to next week even more.

CarrieB Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Awww at Matt falling on the stairs and that he can see the funny side. Sounds like the band enjoyed the Madrid audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good lordy. And you got a duff place? How infuriating but I hope it didn't spoil the gig for you - by all accounts it was a corker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how ill I am after or the amount of pain afterwards (well within reason) I still prefer being at barrier. Mind you, I promised Catherine I will see the doctor after last night but that's not for the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandh Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Hi all! Yesterday's gig was amazing! I was at row 10-12 without effort arriving at 7pm . Anyway a better organization would have avoided that opportunistic people come to the front at last moment because while MUSE playing it was so crowded!

Midnight26 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 It was...amazing, fantastic, awesome...I'm still freaking out! No words, to sume up! Looking forward to this summer for a next gig!!!! A pity that yesterday's dream ended... I was at row 5 or so and even people sometimes were a bit... annoying pulling you, it was... they are Muse!

DrummingSpain Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I heard a few posts saying they weren't happy with the support band but they were superb! They were having a great time and really stoked up the crowd. Great set by Muse, including Hysteria, New Born (over 8 minutes!!!), TIRO and KoC. There was a great atmosphere and everyone really enjoyed it. Matt was very conscious to play to the crowd, even those at the sides of the stage who didn't have the best seats. For those who haven't yet been, you're going to have a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 They flashed up on the lyrics for Madness on the screens "weed" instead of "mean"...I guess quite rightly since everyone was lighting up! I thought Unsustainable was terrible - the sound at the start of the gig did not sound good, although it got better. Survival was so disappointing, around me everyone just stood there. Which is weird because why'd everyone go so crazy for Starlight? I had fun, turned up at just after 9pm and got pretty close to the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrummingSpain Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Survival was so disappointing, around me everyone just stood there. Which is weird because why'd everyone go so crazy for Starlight? Probably 'cos its much better known and a bit faster than Survival, plus its got the line which most Spaniards know "Black holes and Revelaaaaaaaations". To be fair, watching the video I have of the crowd during Survival, they seemed pretty fired up to me. Also throughout the concert, the vocals were a bit too quiet I thought. Still, it was a great gig, shame I can't make it to another....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could hardly make out the 'no smoking' banners. Unsustainable sounded great to me, but I was above the speakers and up near the roof, level with the front of the stage on Chris's side. One or two songs fell a little flat - Explorers had everyone sitting down and taking a break (chatting, getting more beer, etc), and people were mostly watching the dancing monsters during Panic Station. Some guys in the queue behind me at the airport tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I'd been to the Muse gig (the sweatshirt with Muse on it was a clue). They hadn't, but had gone to some indie club on Saturday night (Sunday morning) and found themselves at the aftershow party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjartrod Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Had an AMAZING time in Madrid Decided to go completely unspoiled (not easy!) and it was great. All the new songs sounded fantastic, Falling Down was a massive surprise cos I'd heard the rumours but thought it would be so far fetched to have them playing it, the pyramid stage looks incredible and it doesn't detract one bit from the music, it enhances everything... The crowd was as I expected it. loud and supportive from start to end, and everyone who had seats was standing. Standing was absolutely packed (looked too small to be honest) and that was actually the only thing that was annoying - I was right in front of the FoH (talked to Tom in the end ) and near the end me and my friends were getting crushed against the metal gates. If I wanted to be squished, I'd be at the barrier... but apart from that... :D Cant wait for London now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukelion Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 The gig was amazing, I had such a great time The band looked happy and seemed to have a lot of fun PS: Matt falling was I flew from London to see them and the Spanish crowd were absolutely brilliant. Now there's the two nights at the o2 Fri/Sat but I know it will be "brutal" with a lot of pushing and shoving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

limbikusrendszer Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Also throughout the concert, the vocals were a bit too quiet I thought. Still, it was a great gig, shame I can't make it to another....! Totally agree with that... The crowed was so loud that I really had to close my eyes and focus to hear Bellamy's voice... It's great that the crowd participates and the energy was just huge, but I didn't pay my ticket to have people yelling in my ears (neither bad singing nor "Dios mio !")... That was the down side of the gig... Other than that, it was simply LEGEN-wait-for-it-DARY !!! The show was mind-blowing, the crowd super motivated, the band excellent... I'm still recovering from all these feelings THANK YOU MADRID !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, me and one of my friends were totally singing the 'so i told you' and the 'you were warned but didn't listen' parts Your friends must've been to my right cos he stopped to talk to a few boys before he came over to me to sign my ticket and by the time we left it was basically cos security was pushing us out of the standing area So I guess we almost bumped into each other!

dingus Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 We had an amazing time in Madrid! I love the Palacio! We were 1st row of 2nd floor Matt's side, perfect view and enough space to dance and jump We waited for the group after the show but only saw Tom Kirk (who was kind enough to let us take a picture of him) Ready for London now!

When did you start queuing and at what puerta? One of my friends is a tall blonde guy who looks German, well, he is German they got their tickets signed and talked to him a bit. Can you imagine? we probably crossed each other without knowing haha We started to queue around 12:00 am at Goya entrance, and you? Totally agree with that... The crowed was so loud that I really had to close my eyes and focus to hear Bellamy's voice...

limbikusrendszer Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Jaja, don't worry Even though it was a bit annoying, it was cute to see the effect it had at some people ! At some point I wish I could express my joy the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrummingSpain Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 And another thing... I really can't see any reason why they wouldn't play Big Freeze on this tour: in my opinion its one of the best tracks on the album and reckon it would be fantastic live. The only explanation I can think of, is that early polls suggested that many fans thought it was the 'runt of the litter'. I was a bit dissapointed they didn't play it at the Palacio, but hope to see a video of it being played live IF they play it at another venue.
