Nally Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Jesus, what a night. We were 3 from the front in the middle at the start and sooo close to Matt, it was surreal I am exhausted _ the crowd were great, bu there were some really rough lads who kept moshing and almost knocking everyone over. The bandwere truly awesome. Haha I have a feeling I was one pf these lads. To be honest if you're standing in that area at any 'rock' concert you have to expect moshing. If you don't like it, hang back, simples. In other news, loved how interactive Matt was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antoftheproblematique Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Wow. That's a solid few hours that I just want to relive over and over. Was a row from the front, very close to matt. It was absolutely amazing. Highlights were Sunburn, SS and Liquid State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azzy_p Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Wow, just wow! I was near the front (about 4th row) on matts side, I can confirm out of the 3 muse gigs I've been to, this was by far the best! Amazing sound, brilliant stage and the band really looked like they were having fun! this one will take some beating for me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IamTheUniverse Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Morning guys. Who else is totally knackered this morning? Got home at 2.30 and now at work and still buzzing. I reckon last night was possibly one of the best Muse gigs I have been to, nearly on a par with Reading simply because of the crowd and setlist. I have wanted to see Sunburn for years and so please we got it last night. SS too! Just awesome. The new songs went down soooo much better than I had expected, Madness was amazing I cant beleive I ever worried about that being boring live. Explorers I thought was a bit lame but it was a welcome break from the moshing (anyone else in the moshpit in the centre? OUCH!) I love how Matt seems more confident and even more chatty, picking out individuals in the crowd and addressing the back and sides of the arena. Just made the atmosphere so much more electric some how. Everything was just perfect, the visuals were incredible and the lasers were mindblowing as always. The boys seemed totally on form last night and was amazing to see. I can't wait for the stadium tour next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously no, I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else - even if I did end up on the floor! My son was one of the serial 'mosh-starters' it was fun! The crowd were great - everyone really friendly and excited - I apologise to anyone who was stuck near to me listening to my screaming and terrible singing LIke someone else said it was awesome to be so close, like 4-5 metres away from the band - especially when they came down the little platform thingy at the middle front :D My highlights were Panic station, Madness, Liquid State (awesome live), SMBH and Survival (OMG!). Can't wait for the stadium tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boz Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Just got back to Durham so completely knackered after very little sleep but oh my what a gig! The guys were on form and they all looked like they were really enjoying themselves instead of just going through the motions. Matt was so charismatic and Liquid State was performed really well by Chris. Oh yeah, and SUNBURN! I was about 4 people back right in the middle and everyone around was singing the lyrics at the top of their voices. Also, it was nice to meet you Tassia and Darren. I hope you guys had a cracking gig too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libitina Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Did anyone else think most of the people behind the Merch stalls were utterly useless?? Never seen anything like it. Yes, but in their defence, why do people queue for 20 mins plus then get to the front and can't decide what to buy? We went to the one down the ramp, far less busy, but still staffed by REALLY slow peeps. Picko, I'm actually surprised I have any voice left today. Although I have rung in sick with a stomach bug, I thought it was just excitement giving me 'butterflies' but it wasn't On the plus side, it means I get to stalk youtube for footage of last night. Have replayed Unsustainable several times. Will Muse do a tour dvd at some point does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_invincible_dude Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Absolutely cracking night last night, got back at 3.15am after bejng diverted about 3 times off the M5 and the A38 all the way down to Plymouth...but all of it was so worth it.

Citizen_2 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Blimey. Still buzzing, and think I'm going to be for a while. How the feck can you pick a highlight out of that? This tour - everything about it - just rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried the main merch stall (useless woman serving at the far end on the right, I came away with nothing!!) and tried the one at the bottom down the ramp. Served by a guy with long curly hair, looked like he'd been dragged in off the street and not a clue how he got there or what to do. Totally useless. Took an age to say "sold out" I knew what I wanted too. I was stuck by some Australian woman at the top merch store, she took about 25 minutes.
