lesh Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 According to the updated list, I am the only person willing to go alone! I think after this emotional experience, a meetup should be in order. *sniff* Canadian fans are the best! We're in this together! If Muse only knew what their coming means to us. If the demand is high enough, maybe they'll come back! Or tack on another show! *is hopeful* I just got my friend to join the Inside Edge as well. So now my chances of a ticket have instantly doubled Good luck everyone! Don't forget about me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivum Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 i'll be listening to the radio every day at work, so i'll keep everybody posted on what is said there. there was a little promo ad that aired about half an hour ago that basically said the only way to win is to sign up for the inside edge. oh, and i'll need me +1 tickets if anyone wins extras one thing i'm thinking though...if it's a situation where the people who win have their names put on a guest list instead of actually having tickets sent to them, it's gonna get a little tricky. that said, i'm up for a little identity fraud rivum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRoses Posted April 5, 2004 Author Share Posted April 5, 2004 I'll probably go on my own too.

kaelala Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Just entered. I'm dedicating the next two weeks to getting as many tickets as possible for everyone here.We work together and we're a force no one can rekon with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aryka Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Even though it's 19+ Im not giving up hope. I will change my inside edge age so I can at elast enter the contest, and I will BEG Joel tonight to either find me tickets somehow, or get himself on the guestlist and bring me. Cus I figure, if he's on the guestlist, and he's obviously over 19 (almost 26), would they question me too much? I could probably slip in beside him...He could make it..my birthday present to him..haha, that doens't really work, but oh well, I have to go!

Canadian Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Okay, I have more info on the tickets that Edge is giving away.... They have around 150 - 200 tickets available and it will be one big random draw on April 12 (Next Monday). At that point all the winners will be notified via email. So lets just hope that we all recieve emails from The Edge next Monday.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivum Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 they just aired the promo on the edge again. so weird to hear time is running out when i didn't put a cd in one thing i thought was funny - they describe muse as "think radiohead before they sold their distortion pedals" lol rivum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rivum Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 LOL!!! I wish I could have heard that.... it's their standard promo for the gig, so i'm sure you'll hear it sometime if you listen to the radio for any extended period of time. rivum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allzpalz Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 They keep calling it "the muse", not on the commercial, though. I've got good news for under aged musers. PM me for details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is definitely a hurting unit... Ahh man, my anxiety is reaching its highest peak cheers for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 150 tickets might not be that bad....many people might not enter the contest right? Also everyone only has a week to enter. At least it's not a month. I do wish they would have some sort of skill testing question about muse to pick out the real fans from everyone who enters. I almost wish they would stop promoting it on air to stop general people from entering. This week is going to be a very long one. It's like we're waiting to be sentenced.

monkypunk Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 sounds like its exactly like the moneen/alexis show last month. small venue, limited people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batphantom Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 The gig will be LOUSY with Industry wags. They live for this kind of show. I'm 30, so clearly 19+ isn't an issue, but I know how shitty it is to be underage wanting to see the band you love. Hell, I could have seen the Barenaked Ladies WAY before they went huge, but I couldn't get into the university pub. I figure worst case, they'll be back in the fall at the Kool Haus or a similar club. But DAMN I want to see this. As long as everyone and their dog doesn't enter the contest as a lark, we shouldn't have a problem. Hell, I'd imagine that just showing up at Mod Club early on Monday might see you getting in, since most people who win won't bother going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaelala Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 i think bat phantom is sorta right abou the Industry bigwig thing. if Edge only has 150-200 tickets that means since they normally give them out in pair they'll be 75-100 winners but since the Mod Club has mor space then it's letting on they'll prolly be a lot of industry ppl there includin ghte like of radio station ppl, MuchMusic possibly, definutely Chart Magazine, Edge personalities and then the Record company types. If all else fails for us, we can go protest and cause a fit. This whole process is unjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Are they giving away any tickets by phone? Or does anyone who want to win them have to enter online via the Inside Edge? By the sounds of it, (from listening to the edge and phoning in) you could only enter by going online and entering via the inside edge. I guess they changed their minds from when they said "listen to the edge for more chances". Which kinda sucks. As for the 150-200 tickets...I didn't believe it either. I phoned the Mod Club last weekend and that's what they told me. But since the Mod Club hasn't been really consistent in the past (with knowing what's going on) I had to phone the edge and ask the same question to back up their answer. There will have to be another way to get in. People that win may sell their tickets at the door or the Mod Club may just let a certain # of people in. Or we could stake out and wait for the tour bus and tell Matt to sneek us in........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madchester Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Will they even play a full-length gig at the Mod Club? I have this feeling that they're only going to play a shortened setlist, since it's like some one-off event. It is a free event... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far it seems like it will be full-length....it better not be a shortened setlist. Imagine we all won tickets then we get there and they play all of five songs? *shudders at the thought* Anybody have any good news??? There is only 6 more days till we find out if any of us are going or not.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivum Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 So far it seems like it will be full-length....it better not be a shortened setlist. i really can't imagine it being a short set list...there's really no reason why it should be...i mean, they're coming all the way out here, why would they only do a half hour set?? as for the number of tickets...are we sure it's only 150-200 tickets, and not 150-200 pairs or tickets? rivum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batphantom Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Looks like they've moved the Montreal show to the Spectrum, and there are tickets available. I guess anyone capable of a road trip should look into that as an option. Alternatively, DO NOT GO TO DETROIT. It's a shithole, and my friends went down for the Wolfsheim concert last week, and had some, shall we say, issues. Not worth it, even for a free Muse show.

And where are these Montreal tickets available exactly? I tried to phone Edge again but they transfered me to voicemail. Could someone else give it a try re: 150 - 200 tickets or pairs of tickets??? I'm at work right now and can't really try calling again. Phone #416-408-3343 Just a warning: The people who I've spoken to aren't very talkative.
