So last night, I went to see Muse Live. flower;

We left at around five, and headed into Manhattan. We stopped by the comic shop for awhile before heading to the Garden at 6:30. Then we had to wait half an hour to be let in. Before going in, I bought a shirt (Overpriced, though. emo;). Then we had to wait for around another half hour to be seated and such.

We eventually were seated, and had to sit through an hour of waiting. Then, The Cold War Kids came on to play a few  songs (opening act). They weren't that bad.

Cold War Kids finished at around 8:45. We had to wait through a twenty minute intermission for Muse to come on. Everyone was singing along when they played "Back in Black" during the intermission, though. china;

9:05, the lights went out, and a message scrolled across the huge screens on the stage. After that, Muse jumped on stage and kicked things off with "Knights of Cydonia". Everyone in the seated areas stood up and started jumping, dancing around, headbanging, etc;.

A few more songs in, they played "Supermassive Black Hole". On the screens you could see robot-like things marching with a trippy, red background behind them. Easily one of the best songs they played. Then came "City Of Delusion". This time on the screen was just a city crumbling, not that interesting.

Then came "Hysteria". Awesome song, even more awesome live. thumbup;

"Space Dementia" was next, on the background were green lines that popped up every time Mathew hit a note on the piano.

Skip ahead awhile, they played "Plug In Baby". They dropped a bunch of balloons on the crowd for this one.

After that, the lights went off and they left the stage. Of course, this was the part where everyone took out their cellphones and lighters and screamed and stomped for more.

Eventually, Muse came back out with Mathew saying that was exactly what he wanted us to do and the band started playing "Soldier's Poem". Everyone kept the lighters and cellphones waving throughout the song.

Next was "Butterflies and Hurricanes", not much to describe here.

"Newborn" was next, not much to describe here either, but it was definitely awesome.

Skip ahead, Muse played "Unintended", which, according to Bellamy, was a song they "had never played in this country before".

Muse played "Take a Bow" as the last song, descending something that look like a blade halfway through the song.

Muse left after that, and me and my friends had to spend twenty minutes trying to get out in the huge crowds. gonk;

I absolutely loved Muse's performance, and they're much. much better playing Live and when there are a thousand people singing along. Too bad I got stuck near the back where everyone was lighting up blunts all around us. I still got a great view of the band, though.

So, that was my experience. wub;

OH GOD, THIEF, I PITY YOU. gonk;
DON'T WORRY, THAT TOUR WITH MCR IS OVER.

The opening act is just the Cold War Kids with a song or two before a short intermission and then Muse comes on. powerofone;
