I am from the US and every person i talked to said "muse? who's muse?" it gets really annoying tht nobody i talk to knows who they are. There was only one person i talked to who said " I love muse. I love the songs stockholme syndrome and apocalypse please."

I get:

 

"Who?"

 

"Oh, yeah, I've heard of them, but never heard any of their songs properly, so..." - My dad

 

My friend: "The guy sings like a snake"

Me: "WTF? No he doesn't, snakes don't sing, so you can't compare!"

 

"OMG YES! THEY'RE IN TWILIGHT! I LOVE SMBH!"

Me: "God damn it."

 

And I was showing my grandad some clips of Muse, and he said "So who's this guy, the singer and guitarist?"

Me :"Why, that's Matt Bellamy" :D

My Grandad:" Of course! George Bellamy's son! I've met George and wrote a song with the Tornadoes."

Me: :eek: "Wow."

 

My grandad is the only one in my family who thinks Matt can sing :rolleyes:

My family listen to crap, and my grandad was famous in his time :LOL: He's met alot of famous people from the 60s. He showed me George's autograph :D

Best moment ever yesterday.

 

I was in Barnes and Noble and looking at the music magazines and I found this old magazine called Prog and it was from May and it had Matt's face on the cover. So I did a little dance and started reading it. A guy comes up next to me and reaches for the same thing (cause there were two) and starts reading that. So I was thinking to myself, either he wants Muse, The Mars Volta, or Radiohead cause they were the big features. So I started glancing over just to see what pages he was turning too. However, I have an inability to be stealthy. I never have, nor will I ever be. So, he noticed. He smiled very politely for someone realizing that they were being semi-stalked and said "Am I in your way?" I said, "No. I just, well, ok. I was wondering what band you were reading this for." He laughed and said "Muse." I proceeded to creep him out more by just smiling and not saying anything. He had a nervous/awkward look on his face and said "You.....like...Muse,...to?" I finally snapped out of it and said "Yes, yes. I love them. I just rarely meet people who are fans." And thus began a wonderful and NORMAL conversation about Muse, music, and other such delights.

 

Best. Reaction. Ever

But, he said he would take me to Lake Como when Chelsea go to Italy for a football match :p So we could say "I've seen Chelsea in Italy and been to Como where Muse live" :happy:

:D I like Avril's older stuff, but her new stuff is kinda crap. I like, what, 1 song from her new album :LOL: (Innocence)

But yeah, he goes around singing "Hey hey, you you, I don't like your girlfriend, No way, No way, I think you need a new one, Hey hey, you you, I could be your girlfriend!" And then my grandma gets worried :LOL:

My grandad took me to go see Avril aswell, she's really good live, shame she turned pop and girly, her songs were really good to relate to :(

I'm living in a small state of jealousy right now. But that is so cool of your grandfather. I would love to go to Italy to see a football match!

:D I love football!

 

Me too! Which is sad cause it really isn't big at all in the states. So I wind up either missing entire seasons or catching reruns on paid tv. I tend to be alone in my interests, since most of them have to do with England :$

I go between Chelsea, Liverpool, and Newcastle so it depends on my mood that day. I don't ever have favourite teams and I wind up basing my opinion on teamwork for the day. :LOL: But I think it's such a fun sport to watch AND play.

Today, My guitar teacher asked me what bands I liked, and of course, I said "Muse!"

And he said "Oh, Muse? They're pretty good. Bellamy plays some cool riffs" and he now teaches me Muse songs.

One of the best reactions I've had :happy:

:LOL: I'm coming to terms with the fact that my life exists in a permanent state of awkward. Though it does make my life hilarious.
