Do you have a link to their story?? Would love to read about whoever got Matt's guitar. Not that I would be jealous, or anything.... ;):LOL:

 

They're from Mexico. Everything I've seen on twitter is in Spanish :eek:

 

 

Chris chucked both of the harmicas towards the center. We were right in front of him and my wife had a sign :( Then he threw the picks into the "I don't even like Muse but the hotel gave me free front row tickets" seats :(

the "event is being filmed" stuff is posted at most shows, we had in chicago too. usually just done for legal reasons

 

someone did get matts guitar, they have an account on reddit and shared their story. and ya usually chris's side is favored for end of the night throw aways

 

I went to the show in San Diego and then two of the three in LA and the signs were not at any of those shows. We stood in front of the camera man who has the long boom and talked to him each time. We asked him in LA if they keep the footage from each night and he said no. When we saw him again in Vegas (we brought him a t-shirt with fishing jokes because his camera says "no fishing jokes" ... we thought we were being clever) we asked him about the signs. He said they filmed 7 or 8 of the shows so far and they "might" be working on something in the editing room for distribution.

 

Both of those camera guys are on the roadie team for MUSE and run the cameras at each gig. I'm sure the camera guy on the other side is the same way, but we usually stand on Matt's side so we didn't get to know that side like we did the guys on Matt's side.

I'm not jealous at all haha. I was right in the front where he threw it. Everyone just went berserk. They would've killed each other if security didn't intervene. Someone's hair got stuck in the tuning pegs. haha. Did anybody else notice they played the Dead Star riff after Map? I didn't even notice till today because I was so into it.

 

Thanks to you, and to musemomof4 for the details about this!! WOW---I did NOT realize that someone went to the ER over this!! Not hard to imagine, I guess....and WhereIsWaldoAt, sounds like you witnessed how beserk everyone went!! I can't even begin to imagine...must have been like sharks on a feeding frenzy!! LOL!! :LOL: And syzlmt....you said they are from Mexico??

Yeah they are from México, traveled 12 hours on the bus to get to the show

 

And the guy said they went backstage to get the guitar and had a little chat with Dom A. but he was so excited about the guitar, he doesn't remember a thing of what they talked about

Such a fun and great show to end on! I loved each and every minute of it. :awesome: I wasn't going to take pictures but my friend didn't want to either, so I took his camera and took some anyhow. :$:LOL:

.......did they really get free front row tickets?!?!? Ahhh rub it in, why don't they... Missing the Vegas gig just keeps getting worse and worse. :'(

 

also, congrats Jessica. :) That was an amazing coincidence! I hope you told Matt to play more Dead Star. :LOL::shifty:

Casinos give out comp tickets to their loyalty program, so that's a possibility.

 

Thanks! I didn't think about mentioning Dead Star til I walked away! :facepalm::LOL: And yeah, super awesome coincidence. We were the only people on that entire side of the casino too; it was awfully dead that night (could have been because it was nearly 2am :LOL:). And I was so close to staying in when we had first got back to the room! I'm so glad I let my friend convince me to go back out. :chuckle:

 

 

Morgan and I were practically neighbors. :LOL: Didn't know this at the time.

One thing that might debunk the DVD is that Chris' camera guy took a piss break during Follow Me and just had the camera pointed at the crowd the whole time.

 

Anybody have a Vegas VIP poster they'd like to sell ;)

 

No need to ask people to sell their poster!

That guy is the artist for the Vegas and Phoenix VIP posters. He said he would be posting them on there for sale soon.

 

Check up on his twitter account too, I'm sure he'll post something there about the sale too.

I went to this show with my two 13-year-old daughters. You can tell Muse actually enjoys performing, loves what he does, loves his fans. I got to stand next to the cute couple who caught the guitar and kept provoking them on purpose just so they would whoop excitedly some more. So awesome. Great show. Muse was amazing. We waited for five hours to get the spot we did, right up next to the stage on the far left. It turned out to be one of the best spots on the floor.

 

The one horrible part is that one of my daughters insisted on leaving to get water half an hour before the show started. I had to come rescue her half an hour later... she was in tears, with beer spilled on her shirt and only one of the three drinks she bought. Apparently people were knocking things out of her hands, stonewalling her and some woman even went so far as to call her a slut. It was horrible. I had to literally body check my way back to the front where my other daughter still was. Luckily the ladies standing next to us were super nice and helped save our spot. I just want to say thank you to those women if they ever see this, and also the nice people who recognized me on my way out and let me back through. The rest of them, though, can suck a bag of dicks.

Unsustainable and Uprising. I forgot how mental Matt went during Unsustainable, until I watched my videos over again. This is the only one I am posting. I got one of Liquid State that is good enough to post, but my husband was singing so loud on it, he doesn't want me to, lol!

 

ah, such a fun experience. I wish I could go back.

Shoot, feel free to remove the audio and post just the video of it anyway! Some people would love to use your camera angle for multicam projects (perhaps myself). I have audio of the entire gig, so I could use it, especially since I didn't get video!

 

Great video by the way!

I agree, that sounds like a terrible issue. On the other hand though, if the show is starting and somebody is in GA trying to get in front of me because "I need to get up to my daughter/ friend/ grandma/ cousin etc." you're not going to get much help. It's GA, people don't wait 6 hours in line to just let anybody shoot in front them. My first 5 or 6 shows I dealt with this so I now just wait forever to get barrier or 2nd row and reduce the chances. It's going to happen regardless once you get 4-8 people back from the barrier.

I got some pretty awesome videos, but YouTube doesn't let me upload them for whatever reason, if you want to use any just let me know and I can get the YouTube thing sorted out.

I used a Canon Powershot sx260 hs.

You talked me into posting Liquid State, lol. My husband will be embarrassed, but there are just some amazing shots from it. It's really blurry and bouncy in places because we were just enjoying the show so much, but I can't not share the shots that are good. A good part of it is unusable though from the blur. Ill load it overnight, it takes hours/crappy wifi.

I was so excited for my first Muse concert I didn't notice if they were giving out/selling programs. Anybody have an extra? :$

 

edit: plz contact me by pm or something if you do :)

 

Think they were like $30 or something like that. They'll discount them on the .mu store shortly after the tour I would think. They have a US online store that might have them too so you don't have to spend a ton on shipping.

 

EDIT: Dan just posted the print on his site!
