That Little Animal Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Chris does a pretty good Bono too at the end of Follow me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altbecky Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 After watching it, I have to say, Dominic looks like he's having a blast. All of them, actually look really really glad to be playing. I hope this kind of energy keeps up...I know its hard on a long tour. So glad to see them looking like they are enjoying themselves. I didn't see them on the TR tour, but the stuff I have seen from it on festival coverage and YT, well, they just didn't seem to be enjoying it. Hooray for Muse being fun again.

tinman Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Just finished watching. That was awesome, all songs sounding badass. Did someone mention they actually recorded more than was shown on that video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Born Lee Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 It's about time they were on Live Lounge. Pleasantly surprised with how well Follow Me works, Chris has some great backing vocals there. The Prince cover was pleasantly rocky but I really was straining to hear Matt, and it's quite a lyric-heavy song. Turned it off as soon as Starlight came on though.

JimmyKaneBoy Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 There was a piano also in the stage,did they play other songs after the broadcast? For example Survival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyper_chondriac_muser Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Sara Cox is oddly funny... I like her accent as well. She's currently afraid of a die-hard fan who sounds a bit too much like me in her obsession My internet connection failed so STILL haven't heard it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjartrod Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 My God, are they back. I think that was my fave performance of Uprising, like, EVER. Follow Me was absolutely fantastic and the Prince cover was even better than what I expected. That.Guitar. I can't believe how incredible Matt's vocals are. I hope he keeps it up cos I don't think he ever sounded better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leetroot Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I didn't like the cover but I really liked Panic Station. How much fun is that going to be at a gig They need to wear big cardis for that song though (Starsky and Hutch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ourmatetone Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I think I'm a convert for Follow Me. Hated it at first, dismissed it as "Ibiza-ish crap that they would play in Es Paradis" and argued with some fans on here about it. Listened it on Live Lounge earlier today and that performance floored me, utterly taken by surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gohenko Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpjciAuKBT0 Full video Ugh, Matt has gone back to using his awful fuzz tones Although he doesn't seem to have his entire live rig in there, so that may be one reason. A very good performance, though. That Prince cover is surprisingly good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyper_chondriac_muser Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Holy Hell that's PROPER beefy!!!! I was headbanging throughout that awesome Prince cover - fucking amazingly heavy choon! Really wish they'd do a proper recording: they were in the studio where they recorded the album after all. I don't think I've heard them do something so GRRRR - that guitar/bass combo was explosive! Amazing set: they looked very relaxed and sounded fantastic! I'm especially loving how it feels like Chris is getting more of an integral role to play in performances - aside from his two lead-vocal tracks - with ace backing vocals, different and LOUD bass styles etc. It's not really hugely different to what he did before, tbh, but I feel there's more focus on his input for some reason. Uprising was nom and Follow Me sounds incredible live. As does the infectious Panic Station! Anyways, BRILLIANT! <3 Oh, and lol at Dom's cheeky chewing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altbecky Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Yeah, I noticed Dom's gum too! Part of the reason he looked so relaxed, probably. Anyone who doesn't like Follow Me NEEDS to see this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cllelf Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Wow, that was one hell of a "concert!" Prob the best overall performance in a very long time.. Except for Starlight ofc, same as ever. And very suprised over how good the Prince cover sounded The band sounded soo heavy, and matt's vocal were fantastic! If they can keep this up, this is gonna be one hell of a tour.

Gohenko Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I loved the fuzzier tone. Works on Madness, works on Uprising, works on PS, works on Follow Me. It works. I just don't like it. That annoying fuzz tone was my main problem with BHaR tour performances, especially in SMBH. All that buzz and fuzz is not really my thing. I prefer a more organic, overdriven guitar sound. So no, it doesn't work for me. Go back to the TR tour guitar tones, Matt I really liked his Supremacy guitar tone in the Cologne gig, though.

Gohenko Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 /opinions Opinions, definitely. In the end, it's all just opinions. Matt had some of his worst guitar tones around 2001 and 2002 and then in 2006-2007. And that's not even an opinion, it's a fact. Not saying all of his guitar tones around those times were shit, though. /shortrandomrantaboutguitartones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gohenko Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 90% of TR tones were awful imo Still better than those awful fuzz tones of his If Matt could just stay at the same kind of guitar tone that he had in Cologne for Supremacy, I would be happy.

sade Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Um. That cover of Sign of the Times was just....um...wow. I don't even know what to say to that. So so so good. See, I almost typed God instead of good. That's how much I liked it. sigh. Sign Of The Times was ace, I hope they record it. Matt's vocals are absolutely stonking at the moment, hope he keeps it up. Agreed. I'm not usually a huge fan of Muse doing covers, but this was just...effing great. I hope they record it, too (a stripped back version, like this). Also, Matt's vocals are insanely impressive at the moment. I can't believe he's constantly this good at live performances. (The pessimist in me however immediately reminds me that my concert won't be until December...hope he keeps using proper singing techniques!) EDIT: Follow me sounded a lot better than on the album. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 90% of TR tones were awful imo TR was a bit flat but the guitar tones still had a lot more fullness to them than in the time periods Gohenko mentioned. The 2011 tones were just beefy perfection though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
