gocanux Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 :bumpity!: :bump! :bump!: So ... who is traveling and from where! for Lolla Chicago - Muse headlining? Hiya Jae, thanks for reviving this old thread I started. I'm hoping to join the Pacific NW Musers at Lolla, but the timing is going to be tricky. But the usual suspects from my neck of the woods are already planning, saving, requesting time off work, etc! Shame it's Chicago in August (*coughHellOnEarthcough*) tho. Gee, that would bring me up to an even 3 dozen gigs, and expand my list of states by one too! (ten? I know it's 5 countries, have to add up the states....) Edit: that would make 11 states, I will definitely travel for Muse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little c. Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Can I join this club??? I travelled twice to Canada to see them. Even though it was by car, I did need a passport to get across the border. Does that count? As an aside, my dream would be to see them at Wembley. Someday I will make it there! I would love to see them on their own turf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoodyJ Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 :bumpity!: :bump! :bump!: So ... who is traveling and from where! for Lolla Chicago - Muse headlining? I never noticed this thread until today. You can add me to the list of people who has traveled for Muse, and plans to do the Lolla/Chicago trip from New England.

agenthal Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Will be doing Lolla from Texas and hopefully Reading/Leeds, so add that to my travel list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.unintended Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hey! I've travelled for Muse! I went almost 1000 kms to see Muse for the first in Sydney, and then travelled back home and then another 100kms to Melb twice to see both those gigs. If money were no object i would go anywhere in the world to see Muse. One day i'll make it to Wemberly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AguanteRiver Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 :bumpity!: :bump! :bump!: So ... who is traveling and from where! for Lolla Chicago - Muse headlining? I will be flying from Phoenix to Chicago for this. According to Google, if I drove it would be 1,750 miles. Also, I'm planning on being at the next Wembley gig...so I'll post here again in 201X when the sixth album is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LyraSilvertongue Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I've travelled to Paris twice to see Muse. It's not particularly far, but one of those times was at 3 days' notice (with two children to make arrangements for, that ain't easy). The second time was the first time I'd travelled abroad alone. I'm tempted to go to Lolla if they headline but right now I don't have the money Muse are the only band I've travelled any distance for. But then I live in London, so most bands come to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donmorgan Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I persuaded a group of friends to change our Vegas trip to April last year so I could watch them in the Mandalay Bay...(dragged another friend who isnt a Muser...and susequently enjoyed herself)...also to Madrid last June...(dragging my husband....who most def isn't a Muser....who enjoyed the alcohol!!!)....seriously contemplated Australia for the end of the tour and incorporating a holiday but couldn't justify dragging the children that far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paraluman Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Last year, I flew across the South China Sea from Manila to Singapore to see them live. Count me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agenthal Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Besides Muse, I just backpacked all the way from DC to Minneapolis over the weekend following Biffy Clyro around. It was pretty fucking awesome, except the whole blizzard thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rog54 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 There has been a bit of discussion in various threads about the lengths that many of us will go to, to see the best live band on the planet perform. So, why not a club for the truly obsessive world-traveling Musers? We will need input on criteria for eligibility; certainly anyone who travels to another country or state, or other long-distance travel, is in like Flynn! HelenT and I, both veterans of multiple trans-Atlantic journeys to see the band perform, have been nominated as presidents; co-presidents, one from UK and one from US sounds even better, we accept! (Can I speak for you, Helen?) I would nominate Liron for an official officer, as she has been from Israel to France, then to UK (separate trip), and also to the US, with coast-to-coast band-following and multiple gigs. Any other likely candidates for WTFM membership or officers? A few who pop into my head: ocean5 Sylvie Arman Firebaptist maccah hyper forwen althea satan kiernana aur0bells canuxfan44 (Edit: more added! The list keeps growing...) judderman theangelthatislo Britrock bucjo Zoja Charming queen After8 lostkiwibird MelAssassin GeorgyDrachenkoeter Blackwings Timrich citizen_pb cgreen AllSoArty Dutch Krnflakgrl sools Sebso Purplesum Poison ver.2.0 Evilduck J33-3 Rog54 Don't be offended if I forgot to mention you (cut me some slack; I'm old!)----just copy the list and add away!! And I assume anyone listed will be going to MuseFest.....! EDIT: there is no way now to keep this list up to date, the list has grown too huge! Added me to the list!

lalashasta Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Because of conflicting dates and all, I'm travelling to Chicago for their NA tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumyeah Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I feel that I belong here too I became an avid fan in 2009 and managed to visit 4 Muse concerts already! They' won't come to my country soon and my standard of living won't allow me to actually follow them... But it's my greatest joy to travel once in a year to a Muse show! Last year I made it to the Reading festival and it was kind of an exciting time machine! And lately I've been lucky to see them in Budapest. Cheers to all a-mused travellers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AguanteRiver Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Last year, I flew to Los Angeles and to Chicago for Muse. Next year, I'm flying to Los Angeles and London. This is the one thread where I can say that and not feel like the odd woman out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airieslady Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 OK, so I'm driving down the road to Tampa and again in my town Orlando.... but that's not enough for me... so I will be flying to San Diego for the first US show and then later for one more at MSG in NYC! If I won the lottery, I would go to all the shows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
