Introducing Muse to your parents

No, I'm not personal friends with the band and brought the home for tea :D

 

Musically, ever done this? My parents liked them, in places, but tried to relate them to bands of their era, they claimed that they sounded like Ultravox :eek:

:LOL:

I've been listening to them for so many years now, One of my many Muse made CDs is nearly always playing in the car or when I come home so it was only a matter of time. My Mum's now coming to Wembley, my Dad would have but he's off to Le Man that weekend :) they saw them for the 1st time last year. I did tell her though we'd probably leave her at the back somewhere, don't think she's one for getting squished amoungst the crowd.

I tried to get my parents to listen to them, but when you have a mum who's fave groups are the scissor sisters and girls aloud, :mad: and a dad who will only listen to tina turner:eek: it doesn't go down too well.

 

oh dear I'm lucky my Dad's favourite bands are Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin Hendrix, The Waterboys and my mums are The Monkees, David Bowie and Bob Dylan :D

Well I actually discovered Muse at the exact same moment my parents did we were driving in the car when TIRO came on the radio and we all liked the song. I of course got addicted straight away within a month was highly obsessive and have been going on about them ever since, so my parents have had to suffer their music but both claim to like them though I'm not entirely convinced though I have played more of their music to my mum more recently, even Microcuts which she happily sang along too and is now wanting to see them live :erm: I think thats just her being strange though

My dad actually started listening to Muse about 4 years ago, and he introduced me to their music. It's quite interesting actually - he always played their CDs at home/car and their concert DVDs :\mm/: and then he gave me the CDs to listen to, and now I'm obsessed . . . :)

I introduced my mom to Muse, and she's very impressed by them. When we went to see them during the MCR tour, she was amazed that Matt could play the piano well :LOL:. Now whenever I don't practice she says "Don't you want to play like the guy in Muse? You should!" :LOL:.

Everytime i mention muse to my dad i get a lecture on how they are a modern version of led zep./the beatles etc. so i avoid that :p When i mention it to my mum its 'you just like that bellamy boy' :rolleyes: and when i mention muse to my brother its usually 'they're rubbish and you know it' so muse is not exactly a hot topic within my family :p

I don't care what my mum thinks, but if she's in my car and any of my music's on, she always says "Thank god for that" when I turn the engine off!! Doesn't matter what it is - she's old and very naive!

 

My brother is the one I can convert very easily - he has no mind of his own when it comes to music - except Evanescence, but I need an exorcist to rid him of that obsession!!
