Dominic. Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Regarding filming at gigs... If you're stuck on barrier or far back where people aren't really moving, film away. It's always nice to have videos...unless your camera/phone/gizmo is shit in which case just fuck off If you're in the main bit of the crowd then don't take your phone out at all. You know other people will be so there's always gonna be footage, and by worrying over your phone you stay static and it jsut deadens the crowd. Move to the outside if you want to film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polythenelucy Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Been thinking it over an think I've decided why I'm not really that keen on it (Psycho). Personal opinion but I don't quite think the drums have enough 'kick/power' to drive that huge riff. Too much guitar simply. They could have upped the tempo a little too IMO Drums haven't been that good since BHAR, especially in Knights. And agreed, faster tempo could've made the song a little more exciting. Maybe they'll try it live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee3Dee Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Or maybe just let people record the gig if they want to and mind your own business instead of worrying that they're not getting the "full concert experience", which is obviously the same for exactly everyone.

sam_jk Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Apologies if this has already been discussed, but isn't Drones the shortest album, in terms of number of actual tracks? If the trackes with brackets are just sound bites, then it only leaves 10 tracks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm expecting something along the 50-min mark though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rather have people chanting with me than focusing on if their phones are getting the best shot or not. I've attended Jack White concert where his guy stepped up at stage pre show and told everyone to not record and instead enjoy the concert, that they will be recording and will be uploaded on web for free. It was my best concert experience because the audience was AMAZING. Yes a few people still recorded it but not "army of glowing screens". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright everyone, put your phones down so this guy can enjoy his gig. Boo-fucking-hoo. In case you haven't noticed, Muse don't upload their gigs anywhere, so audience recordings is all we have.

I don't mind anyone recording the gig as long as their phone/teblet is not directly in my face blocking my view. even worse at Reading festival, during fucking PIB the girl next to me asked me not to jump infront of her as I was blocking her recording. ffs.

In case you haven't noticed, Muse don't upload their gigs anywhere, so audience recordings is all we have. recordings from seated audience are most welcome. preferably using something that gives a better sound than a cheesegrater. assholes in GA blocking your view and forcing you to be careful not to touch them in the slightest so their precious apple products remain safe, are most certainly not welcome.

alibros Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 but like I said I try to record a decent audio of the whole thing. Does anyone know if there are any legal implications against bringing a semi decent recorder in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at a show a while ago and the lady in front of me was verballing people quite aggressively to move so she could see. Eventually they moved and then she pulled out an iPad to film the show, blocking everyone else. So frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmyneutron Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I thought St Vincent did it really well, asking people to not film to ensure maximum enjoyment. I don't think I saw a single phone for the whole set. But then, I was pretty fixated on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zomuse Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 What annoys me the most is the amount of footage that is recorded but left to rot in people's hard drives...obviously not everyone needs to upload their footage, but for the number of phones I see up in the air shockingly little ever makes it to youtube.

joshscuse Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 If people are recording on an ipad, or any other tablet, I say it's fair game to play "whoever knocks it out of their hands wins" with the people standing around you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumosasuke Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 He did at one stage when talking with fans in Vancouver, as well as a sequel/second part to CE. He separately mentioned trying to write songs like he used to, to see if he could. Dead Inside could suggest that the character of CE has been left feeling empty, dejected, open to this conditioning/psychological abuse. I'm not sure where else I'd see a CE2 fitting into the context of the concept album. My interpretation of Citizen Erased was that the character died, or was close to death. CE2 might even be a b-side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rina_06 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I remember lining up for an arctic monkeys gig at rod laver arena in Melbourne, Australia and they specifically said ipads were not permitted. I thought this was the norm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're done with b-sides, sadly. Hopefully they'll prove me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
