All you need to do to access this section of the programme is click on the link below or on the homepage of muse.mu, have your programme to hand and follow the instructions.

pokemew Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 So the new stage looks a lot like my face. Anyway, funny that the portuguese band Blasted Mechanism did Augmented REality with their last album (almost one year ago) too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese on toast Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 so paying £15 PLUS shipping for a programme I don't actually want is the only way to access this? fuck right off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly. Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 so paying £15 PLUS shipping for a programme I don't actually want is the only way to access this? fuck right off It's a bonus feature part of the tour programme, so if you dont want the programme you dont get the extra.

Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 It's a bonus feature part of the tour programme, so if you dont want the programme you dont get the extra. I bet loads of people will pay £15 just to access that extra. Muse and Warner are really pushing things too far, that's just extortionism now.

WickedSuzy Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Bit rubbish that we have to pay to watch this. Muse is now pay per view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokemew Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 For the ones who don't know how this Augmented Reality thing will work, check this video to see how Blasted Mechanism used it on their Album http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBujOuOFTMQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kindakooky Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Well i normally buy a tour program anyway and £15 isn't too bad for a program like Muse imo but i'm not paying extra for the postage so just i can view the Augmented Reality section early. I'm waiting and buying mine at Wembo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is pretty cool. But even if I do get the programme, I still need to go get a webcam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Custard Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Radio 1 did something similar 2 years ago. Pretty cool. I never realised it was part of the programme though, I got really excited just now as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLahYcb7Ppg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom//P Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Bought the tour programme (crap by the way), still can't get it to work. Unless this is amazing I honestly wouldn't recommend paying £15 for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemsy Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Programmes have always been a total rip, but people do buy them... this only makes the programme more worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That WAS cool. Thanks for posting that. So we can look forward to holographic Matt Dom & Chris in our very own living rooms? Hey maybe I can use those 3D glasses I got from the cinema...:musesign: Well i normally buy a tour program anyway and £15 isn't too bad for a program like Muse imo but i'm not paying extra for the postage so just i can view the Augmented Reality section early. I'm waiting and buying mine at Wembo. Exactly. Might as well wait. (The extras aren't going to disappear - unless Matt gets near the site... someone take out an injunction on him, quick!) Except. I don't know if I can. :rolleyes:AHA! I know - I'll just buy loads of stuff from the shop (like I was going to anyway) - therefore the postage is justified!!

Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Programmes have always been a total rip, but people do buy them... this only makes the programme more worth it. That's fair comment, but I think this is designed to get more people to buy programmes, specifically those that haven't been to a gig and haven't got a programme because of that. It's blatant capitalism, a few years ago I'm sure Muse would have done something like this for all their fans, not just those stupid enough to pay over the odds for a programme. I am sitting back now and waiting for Warner to announce a membership fee for this board and the exclusive bits of the main website. It can't be long off, and they'll justify it by saying they'll improve the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not one to bother with merch 'cause I think it's all bollocks, even Rage have their millions of t-shirts haha... I know bands have to make money somehow but c'mon. I did buy a programme on the Absolution tour though. It looked interesting with lots of words. I'll buy something if there's lots to read, but I hate those glossy programmes that just have 4 pages of pictures and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil. Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 1. Someone that owns a tour program takes a scan/photograph of one of the "targets" 2. Person uploads image. 3. Print the image/put on phone/bring it up on screen with mirror in hand. 4. Direct the copied image at your webcam. 5. ?????? 6. PROFIT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
