mjartrod Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I got the impression from the little we've heard that the boys also had input in the other aspects of the performance. I doubt we'll have an all seeing eye floating above the crowd but I think the organisers would be as keen as the band to have a very bombastic performance. Dont think there'll be many concerns re: budgets, so I suppose Health and Safety is as usual the enemy Anyway, craziness aside, as long as they deliver a good performance it'll look and sound great.

bellapod Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I can't wait for Sunday now. It would be nice if Muse can play at that stadium again next year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edeslash Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I can't wait for Sunday now. It would be nice if Muse can play at that stadium again next year too. How big will it be after they remove the outer parts? Good size for bands like Muse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellapod Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 How big will it be after they remove the outer parts? Good size for bands like Muse? Definitely. It's being sold to a major football club so great chance of using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davetoms Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 One song from Muse? I'm glad I can sit at home and watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Anyways, much as it would be mind blowing to see them in the venue, a friend of mine who went to the Opening Ceremony said he could barely hear/see much of it and felt far-removed from the 'action'. I'd rather have the best seat from my sofa, which is free . I remember that was my plan for Reading. Oh, I was so naive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyper Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 If you're considering paying what will ultimately cost around $3000 to hear Muse play a single, not very good song, then you should probably seek some kind of advice. Medical, psychosocial, religious, crazy cat lady next door, at this stage anything would be more rational. yeah, but later I can brag about it on muse fourms. worth every cent. so chrome-covered piano will look like this???

Killer Rabbit Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I'm worried NBC are going be dicks when they broadcast the closing ceremony over here and will cut out Muse. The primetime broadcast is listed as being somewhere around two and a half hours long. There's a re-broadcast later on in the late night/early morning that's listed as being an hour longer.

Hyper Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 i am going to watch it live, not sure if NBC will be with a delay again. for the openning ceremony I used this service to be able to watch it live on BBC site, it was super easy http://www.unblock-us.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareeh Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 What is a gig then? I'd just say a set of live music by a band. I suppose the whole thing collectively is a gig, but it is not a 'Muse gig' by any means. anyway I land myself in arguments that get nowhere so I'll stop here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 It's a lot of musicians performing. It's a gig. You could consider it a lot of gigs because they're all separately being paid to perform, using the definition of gig. But whether you're talking literally or informally, it's definitely a gig.

I suppose you'd consider 17 songs a gig. 16 songs would also qualify as a gig, as I'm sure you'd agree. So a gig minus one song is still a gig. So 15 songs is a gig. So 14 songs is a gig. Continue this, and you end up with 1 or 0 songs qualifying as a gig. Problem? trollface.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livs Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 what if he is planning to set his guitar on fire at the end Or if its like, got a hidden flame thingy where it lights up and looks like an electric fire the guitar is very basic for Matt- one pickup, a sustainer- no fuzz or kaoss. :pope: it would be epic.
