tdrunner95 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Oh yeah I was screaming and jumping up until the end of Stockholm. I was just wiped the fuck out. Thought I was gonna pass out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsrock Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I thought shostakobitch was being sarcastic with the "screaming" post. I don't know how you can ask for a better crowd down on the floor (can't speak for the balcony). I know by the time Bliss came on, my voice was probably not audible from screaming back the lyrics to every single song that they played. I imagine it was the same for most of the people down there.

shostakobitch Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) right on musers! if you don't think there was anything wrong with the dearth of screaming, i must be out of my mind! see y'all at the next one!!! woo woo "come on new york; make some noise." -matt bellamy 5/8/15 pre-chorus to "uprising" Edited May 11, 2015 by shostakobitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'm saying is, from where I was during the show, it felt like everyone WAS singing/applauding/screaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shostakobitch Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) if i can't make a simple comment about something i noticed without receiving snark, what's the point of a forum? i wasn't trying to start an argument but as it goes, i sense some misinterpretation. i did not say it was a bad crowd. i did not come close to it. i was expressing curiosity as why it was a quiet crowd in terms of vocalizations most if not all individuals have the capacity of making at live music performances in addition to a) jumping, b) singing along, c) hand waving and d) never putting a cell phone down. some on here said they were tired, some on here said there was plenty of screaming. that's great. it's all great. all valid. you don't want to scream? you don't see a problem with the level of noise? fine. that's you. but don't gang up on me like i said the whole crowd was bad. i thought if it were a room of die-hard, do anything for the band fans that there would be more screaming. especially in response to the massive jams, nuanced riffs, fills, vox, and everything we were graced with in such an intimate setting. perhaps my expectations got the best of me. but this does not mean you ALL shouldn't consider trying to scream a couple times at the next show you go to. it's a science experiment. try it. even if it's a band in your high school cafeteria, try it. if it's not your style, keep on doing you. woo woo Edited May 11, 2015 by shostakobitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefallofrome Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 If you were within the first 10 rows from the stage it was insanely loud and incredibly tight. I think every part of my body was violated that night, lol. In fact I remember catching a glimpse at the VIPs in the balcony level looking at us down front with astonishment and amusement. But in essence, the loud, passionate, and rowdy fans are always the ones up front. The people in the back want to enjoy the music and chill out.

BigGeorge Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 No one is being snarky or ganging up on you. It's just that you had a much different experience from anyone else it seems and it doesn't make sense to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidious911 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 This gig was nuts. Apparently the floor moving was an intentional thing though. I guess it is a suspended floor, and is designed to do that a bit. Before the gig started, I was watching the guitar and bass techs doing checks on all the gear, hoping to see the CE7 guitar being setup or something. I saw the Madness bass, and I was sooo disappointed at first because I was hoping that song wouldn't make an appearance. After about 15 seconds into the song, with everyone singing along, it was just a realization that even if it isn't my fav song, it just really seems to work well, and majority of the crowd was into it and singing along. It was really nice to have the song be about the music this time instead of the gimmick of video glasses and lasers and all that other stuff from 2nd law tour. On top of everything else, Madness was a welcomed chance to breathe for a few minutes after the initial surge of energy in the show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Yeah. Some people were complaining about madness/animals/starlight but I really really needed a break so I didn't die. This. It was boiling in there too... seemed like the AC came on a few times, but only for five seconds. Before the gig started, I was watching the guitar and bass techs doing checks on all the gear, hoping to see the CE7 guitar being setup or something. Same. I spent some time during the opening act doing that as well, but that was sort of spoiled for me anyway because someone one person down from me was complaining that I was intentionally pushing the guy next to me into her. Wasn't like I could do anything when I was being pushed into that direction...I did feel a bit bad for that guy next to me as he did look a bit uncomfortable during this, but I think he knew I couldn't help it. A bit upset that the crowd surfer knocked the blinky glasses off my head and I didn't get them back, but I'll manage. And I saw the 5 string bass (used for assassin) and got a bit excited, but wasn't disappointed in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha nah it's fine, plus I think there were two crowd surfers at the end And yeah, I didn't see that one at all. I think animals had the lowest energy of all the songs, at least where I was. Definitely needed a bit of time to breathe though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark115 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 From near the back where I was it looked like everyone was jumping and singing and screaming. The crowd was easily the best pit i'd ever been in. I'm sure there were parts towards the mid point where it wasn't as loud as say during Psycho, but people were exhausted i'm sure. I felt completely dead by the end of the show, my body aching and killing me but it was worth every second. It was hot as hell in there and the set was so heavy. I can honestly say I put out all the energy, jumping, singing, and screaming that I had in me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was one song that I felt just didn't "fit" it would be Animals. Probably because they played it after the back to back of Hysteria and Stockholm. It was certainly a welcome breather though.

gemini6369 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 hell of a show!!!!! had the best time on that floor surrounded by you crazies!! soooo pleased with the set Reapers(!!!) freaked when i saw the piano on stage loved the bounce of the floor no actual complaints, what more is there to say?! definitely worth the wait outside all day. ...can't wait for the tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonli18t Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) reapers is so good. it really is. best live muse song in years i think. I wonder where the "real" tour will bring them? MSG is obvious but they might feel its played out for now ('07, '10, and twice in '13). I'm thinking one night at Barclays when they come back around.

I've been listening to the recording of it on and off today. Seems to be one of the only ones where you can really hear the bass in the verses as well. And yeah, I'd agree with that. Also, is #41 here? Had a good time chatting with you at various points during the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunflower1mdp Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 it was the best US crowd i've ever experienced for muse. it was floor shaking, and the singalongs to older songs were much more well executed than i would have expected for songs like AP and New Born. And the singing along to the riff in knights...i know it's been a staple of EU crowds for a while, but it was the first time i noticed it make its way here, and it really is cool to have everyone wailing along to a riff. Yeah, I don't remember anyone singing along to the KOC riff before either. i thought it was pretty cool. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
