kueller Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I like Starlight. I'm also ok with it live just cause sing-a-long. But pls Muse don't close the show with it pls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraffah Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Lol this. I mean Gl at least gets redeemed slightly by its solo. UD has zero redeeming qualities live. Like theres absolutely no reason for it to be kept at this point. On the whole my only major complaints that I literally dropped my jaw at are 1. No blackout on guitar (next they'll bring back invincible but matt wont play the guitar) 2. Charles looking incredibly cheesy thus ruining Unsustainable 3. Starlight closing the show (imo the worst song they've ever written) I really like Starlight, and to be honest Charles wasn't that bad in the context of the video. Plus, I'm a huge Iron Maiden fan and they have Eddie which basks in cheesiness anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altbecky Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I am generally one of those annoying suck ups who thinks we should be grateful but even I think the slow bit is a bit much. I even like GL, but seriously, all four of those songs together, then add in Matt not even playing guitar? (I agree with whoever said that Blackout solo was one of the best guitar moments in Muse history) I mean. I'd probably leave a little annoyed that Dead Star, and Sunburn and Bliss was then ruined by the shit second half of the show. Glad to see Blackout on setlist again, but placement and lack of Matt on guitar almost ruins it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frakkles Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Blackout placement is fine. It's what comes after that's the real problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The robot could've been the same thing except with the head that is in the Unsustainable artwork and on the music video that just looks menacing and mean and that would've sufficed for me. But instead its like a child's toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Eraser Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNJYBOj7Cfc Just for anyone that's forgotten how good this particular rendition of the guitar solo was, or caught onto Muse way late and never saw this. Skip to 2:30 if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipso Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Chris being on guitar would be fine if he played it like that. Is there a video of the whole song yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Bellamy's solo. Next Chris will start doing the Bliss falsetto and people will say its ok if its close to Matt's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegardrv Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Chris being on guitar would be fine if he played it like that. Is there a video of the whole song yet? There. It's just not the same without the fuzz factory crazyness pre-solo. Edit: The guitar tone sounds really weak too. May just be the quality of the video, but almost sounds like he's still on the strat.

xMrPickles Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Ok seriously? Yes, you might have enjoyed every song, but not everyone here enjoys every song. In fact from people who have been to multiple gigs they can see when crowds on average don't like songs either when everyone acts and looks bored. If the song's not getting the attention of the general crowd it's not a very good song live (in most cases at least). Muse have plenty of amazing tracks live which is why people get annoyed when something like Guiding Light comes back which is not very liked. It's not even a single, so you can't justify it because of popularity. Whining can get annoying sometimes, but you can't generalize that everyone is just ungrateful. Muse concerts aren't an inherent right. You pay for them and as such you can be annoyed if you feel you were not satisfied with your purchase. I understand people being annoyed, but we at least need to look at the good parts of the show. I mean they played Bliss, dead star, and sunburn... Give them credit for that. And it is the first show anyways lets give it time and MAYBE they'll switch things up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frakkles Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I don't think anyone "needs" to look at the positive points. The second half of that set is horrible. The closer is one of the worst ever. If you expect people not to complain about that (especially on here), you're probably not going to fit in here. People have opinions and they're entitled to share them.

Well from what I've seen (and I haven't seen much) people didn't seem that upset for the overall product, just the fuck up at the end which kinda ruined what could have been a completely amazing set. Also, I really want to see a video of Blackout now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there gonna bring it back, they need to do it right and with Matt playing the guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander DeLarge Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Dead Star, in great quality Fucking copyright crap.

Hat Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I think Muse have done a great job since the release of T2L. The stage has been great, the setlists have been great, and the band have sounded great. Sadly they took a step back with this gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
