Just got back, what a great show. Muse was rocking the arena heavy, but they had a very small set I was disappointed. MCR was amazing! They played the new album in its entirety and then left the stage and did a costume change and came out and played classic MCR songs... they had lots of theatrics, pyrotechnics, etc.... awesome time.

I'm confused... Muse opened for MCR? That's kinda backward... kinda. But ok. What did Muse play? Old stuff or new stuff? How good is Gerard Way vocally, live?
?

They played mostly stuff from Black Holes, 2 songs from Absolution and 1 song from Origins of Symmetry.... nothing at all from Showbiz. Probably about 7 songs total. Gerard sounds good live. His voice is pretty nasally but he puts on a good show. Real talkative with the crowd, seems to have a lot of fun.

Oh yeah, groovy. I'll take a stab and say the song from OoS was Plug in Baby? I hope they come to NZ for something other than Big Day Out. I couldn't afford to see them when they were last here.

I'm still surprised that they'd open for MCR though. Weird. Maybe I'm just behind the times, haha.

Muse could have blown those boys out of the water if they wanted to. I saw them at the Tabernacle (Atlanta) last July and just now have shaken the :rockon: out of my head. The short set list sucks...that would have been the only reason I'd want to see this "Black Parade."

classic MCR songs

:rofl:


I saw MCR support Muse in Edinburgh. MCR are the worst support act I have ever seen.

All I've seen of Muse is the Absolution Tour DVD... But fuck, they're obviously one of the best live bands around...

Yah they were pretty intense, and they sound really good, really good setup, very clear and they play good. They definitely could have blown MCR out of the water but they weren't given much time. The songs Muse played were:

Knights of Cydonia
Newborn
Starlight
Map of the Problematique
Butterflies and Hurricanes
Hysteria
Time is Running Out
Stockeholm Syndrome (with balloons!)

Yeah it was pretty great, I was impressed by them... I was disappointed in the lack of songs from Showbiz. I was wanting to hear Muscle Museum or Sunburn or Cave, first time seeing them so i'm not even sure if they play those songs any more..

Why is a band like Muse touring with crappy MCR? I heard it advertised on the radio this morning before I quickly switched to a CD, and could not believe what I had just heard.

it was ridiculous. muse was basically boring. what a waste of such a good voice, even if it's genesis is so obviously thom yorke ripoffery. that fucking arpeggiated synth shit they use in every song has got 2 go. mcr, excuse me the black parade, did not disappoint and was absolutely hilarious. high density confettie cannons, 25 ft flame throwers, sparkler things, a rotating drum set, costumes, and this loud cannon boom. and enough white trash mallcore kids to last a lifetime.
