Hat Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I know right. Why on earth would they air two of the band's most popular songs? Clearly Muse were not able to answer that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermusic Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Tbf, you'd expect a US stream to air Madness or Starlight instead of Agitated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You'd expect a stream to show the best sides of a band, not songs where the singer can barely sing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 What? Only 26 min? Wasn't it suppose to be 40? I'm going to assume (and not go too far out on a limb) that this was shortened, and not "live" streamed so they could pick out the best songs out of a bad situation. Otherwise Agitated would never have made it if they were only showing 5 songs. Unfortunately if Hysteria and Uprising made that cut, it was a truly bad night. I would, again, assume KoC and Madness sounded worse than the ones they aired. I've been bitching about Muse's "perfectionism" (overdubbing notes, not releasing things, etc) but in this case it was totally justified. I would never, ever have wanted people to see this sort of performance of me. It's not like casual viewers are going to know what's going on. I'm a bit shocked they showed anything at all. Also, was it just me, or did the guitar playing sound a bit shit, too? At least in the first bit, I thought he was fucking up all over the place.

Kazy-Babie Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 "This next song is the oldest song we can remember; you won't have heard of it". If that wasn't a passive aggressive way of telling the crowd they're shit then I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 So basically the stream was pretty much exactly as I predicted yesterday No idea why people were expecting Madness or KoC... Yeah just hearing clips from those I knew there was no way they'd show those live. I was actually more surprised Lithium was skipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee3Dee Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Never noticed that before Me neither. But then I actively avoid every recording of TIRO in existance, so yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Rabbit Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 No idea why people were expecting Madness or KoC... Because those two (along with Supermassive Black Hole and Uprising) are the ones that get the most rotation on radio here in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 They didn't stream in the first place cause Bellamy didn't want to show the world his messed up voice. The "highlights" were clearly there to filter out the worst of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Rabbit Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 But his voice was shit and it suffered a lot in those songs, moreso than the rest of the set. I don't dispute that. I was just making the case as to why someone would assume those songs would be a part of the stream, whether or not there were extenuating circumstances.

I was just making the case as to why someone would assume those songs would be a part of the stream, whether or not there were extenuating circumstances. Quite obvious though. Yes, the popular singles are likely to be showcased. But pretty much everyone in this thread heard what it sounded like, which makes one wonder why they would think Muse would ever want to show that.

I'm just playing the devil's advocate here. If there was someone who wasn't looking at/listening to the Instagram and Twitter vids recorded with cellphones, it is only logical to assume that those songs would've been part of the stream. Again, I don't disagree with you. I'm glad they didn't show those songs. Listening to Hysteria at the start was painful enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
