View Full Version : Muse + MCR in Charlotte!
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 12:02 AM 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.
bampton 04-27-2007, 01:33 AM 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?
?
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 01:39 AM 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.
bampton 04-27-2007, 01:59 AM 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.
Ol' Couch Ass 04-27-2007, 03:41 AM 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."
Eulogy 04-27-2007, 04:04 AM muse opened for MCR?
fuckin' a
last time i saw muse was my favorite concert experience. they played Sunburn.
Kahlo 04-27-2007, 04:49 AM classic MCR songs
:rofl:
I saw MCR support Muse in Edinburgh. MCR are the worst support act I have ever seen.
bampton 04-27-2007, 05:25 AM All I've seen of Muse is the Absolution Tour DVD... But fuck, they're obviously one of the best live bands around...
Kahlo 04-27-2007, 06:23 AM they are pretty intense live..or at least they get the audience going!
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 09:51 AM 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!)
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 10:20 AM i'm going to see mcr in 2 weeks. sooo stoked :cool:

Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 11:34 AM i'm going to see mcr in 2 weeks. sooo stoked :cool:
Ignore the haters! They put on a really rockin' show... One of the best i've seen in a while believe it or not. Tons of energy.
Quiet CD 04-27-2007, 12:04 PM Ignore the haters! They put on a really rockin' show... One of the best i've seen in a while believe it or not. Tons of energy.
sounds like quite the WWE-esque experience.

Caine Walker 04-27-2007, 12:21 PM sounds like quite the WWE-esque experience.
HA!
god, i hate black holes.
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 12:22 PM 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..
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 01:16 PM i'm seeing muse and mcr tomorrow night. it's going to be hilarious.
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 01:46 PM nah just go with an open mind.... even if you dont care for MCR at least give them a chance
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 01:49 PM i have no idea who's opening for mcr here.
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 02:10 PM i think mcr sux real bad. same with muse. i'm going to the concert because it will be a funny thing to see and i got cheap student tickets.
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 02:11 PM i'm more excited about this concert than any in recent memory... even moreso than clinic!
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 02:21 PM ^^ i feel that way about the falloutboy/paul wall show i'm going to later this month!
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 02:37 PM fall out boy? :erm: that's too far. masochism.
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 02:48 PM it's going to be extremely fun. me and my bff have lawns, and at least pete wentz is a nice looking boy.
MusicMan4 04-27-2007, 02:54 PM pete wentz is a huge douchebag
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 03:03 PM a goodlooking douchebag with a nice looking penis and a fugly to hot gf.
MusicMan4 04-27-2007, 03:09 PM hes disgusting what the fuck is wrong w/ you
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 03:11 PM i think u know.
Kahlo 04-27-2007, 03:21 PM i think u know.
all i know is that you should have your ears removed as well as your eyes
Effloresce 04-27-2007, 03:55 PM 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.
MusicMan4 04-27-2007, 03:55 PM mcr > muse
Effloresce 04-27-2007, 03:55 PM nigga plz
neopryn 04-27-2007, 03:56 PM hey Eff do you want to go to this show with me at the Pete on Wednesday?
Effloresce 04-27-2007, 04:00 PM No. I'd probably go to a SP show with you though
jk
pale_princess 04-27-2007, 04:00 PM mcr > muse
totes
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 04:38 PM 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.
ha, that's so...
Zerospaced 04-27-2007, 06:23 PM I saw Fall Out Boy with Hawthorne Heights and All-American Rejects. AAR totally pwnd them all. FOB was horrible... maybe it was just the venue or where I was but I wasnt impressed...
monkeyfritters 04-27-2007, 06:29 PM too bad there wasn't a fire in the venue.
monkeyfritters 04-28-2007, 01:04 PM IM GOING TO SEE MCR AND MUSE NOW!!!!!
vote 4 sanjaya
Zerospaced 04-29-2007, 12:01 AM Well fritters, what did you think? Was it a lolerzfest like you thought it would be? Or did you rock out with your cock out...
monkeyfritters 04-29-2007, 04:19 AM 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.
Zerospaced 04-29-2007, 10:58 AM Yeah, they rock
pale_princess 04-29-2007, 04:56 PM 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.
this makaes me even more stoked
