:LOL: Hell no, Reading is about £100.
In fact it was about £80 when I saw Muse there, and £90 the second time I saw Muse there... so I just rounded them up... hang on...
:eek: I saw Muse TWICE at Reading, so that's £609

:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
*still accepts PayPal*

[ʘ]

* Throws some spare change at the direction of Gemsy *
That's all I've got... :(

[Caff]

Oh god...thanks to two abroad trips and various national train journies it's probaby getting closer to £1000 than £500!

[Gemsy]

Damn. :(

[Neilyboy]

I've bought all their albums and have been to see them once, i may be a fan but i'm not obsessive for gods sake! ;)

[Reyn]

Don't really want to add it up, but I would have spent over $1000 Aus. easily. :$

[expanding_universe]

Don't really want to add it up, but I would have spent over $1000 Aus. easily. :$

:eek:

All the CD's, the Aussie Absolution edition, and Hullabaloo CD + DVD..
And two singles (SFA & B&H)..
Ticket to show..
Maybe around 250$.

I have a lot of files, though.

[Superfuzz_Bigmuff]

Er, the first album. 3 gig tickets and whatever percentage from 3 festival tickets. Although one of the gigs they were supporting, does that count? Also I didn't watch them at one of the festivals as someone had just painted their tent so I watched that dry instead. Much more fun.

:LOL:
I have other expenses I could charge to Muse. For example, the train fare to the Perv meet, because if it wasn't for Muse I wouldn't have met you all. :D
And then there's the charge for the procurement of about 20 pwoper e-friends, which is priceless. So let's just call it a couple of grand.

[mayblossom]

Even one gig is expensive.
1 x drink at Earls Court = £10. :LOL:And 1 packet of crisps in Earls Court was £1.

I bought a T-shirt with the Earls Court logo from a spiv in the tube station on the first night. I wore it the 2nd night, washed it, and the whole logo disappeared in the wash. That was £15 down the drain. :'(

'Money you've spent on Muse/The Muse Rawk Cause over the years ' aka the 'lets make Muse feel very guilty' thread ;) I remember an interview where Dom said there was a fan who spent sh** loads of money to see them @ like every venue in the country they were in...when they asked her how she could afford it she told them she just went to work and didn't spend her money on anything else so she could afford to see them..or something like that...all I have to say is :stunned:

It's only since I've been renting that I've been thinking of money as important.
When Muse's Earls Court gig was announced I bought 4 tickets just like that. Over £100. :stunned: I couldn't do that these days, having more important things to buy, like y'know, food and washing up liquid. :LOL:
*is so broke that is tempted to nick the spare washing up liquid out of the cupboard at work*
All right for Muse and their swish cars. All I'm asking for is a couple of grand.
That is all.

[Gemsy]

And I bet they've got posh gaffs.

[Gemsy]

and puppies

Let's just call it £50,000, and we'll share it out amongst the people in this thread. :D

[kittee]

.. what a waste of money :( haha

[AC]

.. what a waste of money :( haha
It's no small amount. But once it's spent, just forget about the actual numbers, eh? I'm sure it made you happy at the time, and that's what counts. If you dwell on the sordid side, then you'll lose even the good that came out of it.

Me, I've not spent all that much compared to some. But compared to what I generally spend on music, it's a lot. :LOL: [/p00r]

Yeah, Muse stuff. :D

Dear Tom,
In light of my workings-outs this morning and the consequent total of my Muse-ular expenditure (as shown in this thread (http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=25905)), do you suppose at all that Muse would be willing to gimme a great big cheque?
Yours sincerely,
Gemsy
Worth a shot. :LOL:

[Rainbow]

I haven't spent *a lot* of money for Muse, but I spent unmeasurable amount of time and the energy. Luckily, I don't feel I want them back ... yet. :happy:

[2 many Coffees]

Yeah, Muse stuff. :D

Worth a shot. :LOL:
why didnt i think of that?!?!

Ok so, i've spent about ... 200 euros :rolleyes: :indiff:

[Caff]

Wow, they owe us both a lot of money...I demand they give us back the hours of our lives spent travelling too!

[Murray]

Precisely £3,410.85. Woot.

[reenap]

They probably do have posh cars and stuff but unfortunately there's no denying it- they've worked for it....but..they should definitely share it....*asks Matt for his lotus* :)

[Branny]

Wow, they owe us both a lot of money...I demand they give us back the hours of our lives spent travelling too!


I was just about to ask if I could charge an hourly rate........
On top of about $300 (just albums, bootlegs, Ebay.......) all the hours I've spent downloading music while I should've been working ??? :stunned: :unsure: :LOL:

I found my spending on muse stuff depended on how busy I was, for example when I started listening to them I was single and had money to burn, now I have a hamster and it needs food. I reckon I've spent over a grand, which is pretty sad.

Thats £785 on it's own, and it's probebly a lot more really.
There's loads of random merch aswell and programmes, which I dunno how much I have. LOADS
is the answer.
I dred to think how much the internet bill would be for 4 years on this website.
Not to mention I bought my boyfriend most of their vinyl.

I bet I'm looking at over a grand.

[Gemsy]

I didn't think about internet bills. :LOL:
*adds another 2 grand*

[Abbey]

Thank fuck I got broadband before I came here, I was already notching up bills of about £600 a month on dial up *shudders*

[paraluman]

Haha. Alright, I'll be honest. :p There isn't much Muse-related merchandise here that I could splurge on, and no one would lend me a credit card so I can order stuff online, plus, I'm too broke to afford a trip abroad to see them live. If only they sold more Muse-related stuff here, I probably would've spent much, much more.

2 copies of Absolution (the other one I gave as a present.) - P950, about US$17.27.
Muse 2003 tour poster - P199, about US$3.19

Grand total: $20.46---that's about £12.23.

Bwahahahahahaha. :D That's just the price of a CD in the UK. :eek: Well, CDs are pretty cheap around here.

[aur0rabells]

Bwahahahahahaha. :D That's just the price of a CD in the UK. :eek: Well, CDs are pretty cheap around here.

HOLY CRAP. YOU ARE FROM THE MOTHERLAND!

I have all the albums, pretty much all of the singles as well, posters, the gas going to the concerts, the concert tickets, the stuff sold at the concerts... you know. yeah. teh usual. :stunned:

If I sum up everything I've spent around Muse it's surely hanging around 500€ and maybe even more...since mid 2003.

[Simno]

Ok so what I've spent over 5 years:

4x gig tickets 125
transport to and from london 40
accom in lond. 35
6x albums approx 70 (includes a couple of showbizes as gifts)
4x dvds (two of each one of each copy was a present to my dear ma) 50
11x singles approx 35
3x posters approx 12
2x hat approx 25

1x manson guitar 2450 (lets face it id never have saved for a manson had bellamy not had one)
... Id probably never have started guitar without muse actually SO!

1x shit secondhand squier 60
1x ibanez rg 370dx 270
1x fender frontman 25r 100
1x marshall dsl 401 350
1x zvex fuzz 175
1x whammy 160
1x mm4 180
1x dl4 180
1x pod xt live pro 240
1x russian big muff 35

so in total just under 5000

starting playing guitar was the best thing I ever did though

[ruled/by/muse]

hm..
1x Hullaballoo DVD 30
1x Absolution CD 4.99
1x muse tee 18
1 x Absolution DVD 14.99

and i got OoS and Showbiz for free xD
so thats about hummhumm.. 67

[Twin]

shit loads

it has to be atleast £500.

i used to buy stuff off ebay (old cd's, vinyl etc)

[MONKEH]

bored.

albums - £55 - incl. hullabaloo
singles - oo fook... £40ish (still needs some work)
DVDs - £24
tshirts - £40 methinks
magazines (only bought because muse were in them) - £10
nottingham arena - £17
EC - £30
oxegen - £120ish
travel - £26 (oxegen was paid for)
posters / merch - £30

grand total of £392.

not that bad really...

[Beast Love]

I bought Desert Sessions I & II and III & IV today. That cost me $62, including shipping to england which was $12 (bit steep I thought)...so that's about £30 in total.

I've spent £60 in the last 2 days, and I dislike spending money...

Oh wait, we're talking about muse.


/leaves

[KRIS]

Well... I'm scared of figuring out the total...:stunned: it was a reasonable price everytime but that was because it was a little thing I bought but as this purchasing has been going on for years I know it will be a huge amount...:stunned: I'll try to be brave and discover the total when I'll be more curious than worried about knowing this...:p

[kittee]

probably a good few thousand.

[Clunge]

Re-calc:

Showbiz - 5.99
OOS - 12.50
Absolution - 9.99
Hullabaloo CD - free
Earls Court ticket - 25.00
Hullabaloo DVD - 12.99
Absolution DVD - 6.99
Sampler thing - 0.99
2x posters - 7.00
-----
Roughly £81.50

[Cecily]

ehm, till now only:

Showbiz - about 10 Euros
Origin of Symmetry - 13 Euros
Absolution - 17 Euros
Muse - Hullabaloo DVD - 17 Euros

[Loopmusic]

Hmmm...

Well...I bought Absolution twice cause my first CD screwed up...so that's £10.99 x 2 = £21.98
Plus a copy of OOS = £10.99
Butterflies and Hurricanes single = £2.99
Estimated cost of trainfare/petrol from attending gigs = £75 (would be a lot less if it weren't for driving to Earl's Court
Ticket for E.C = £26
Car parking at E.C = £15
Postage costs for Matt's birthday presents last year = £14
T-shirt from E.C gig = £18

Erm...I think that's about it. So that equals....£173.96

But I feel kind of guilty 'cause I've never had to buy any of the singles or Showbiz, and I've only ever had to pay to get in once, at Earls Court. Cushy job means lots of freebies. :(

My emotional costs have been phenomonally high :D

[Kynch]

What job you have? If I dare ask.

[Loopmusic]

Well I write for a music magazine. Have done for quite a while now. Plus I nearly ran a fanclub for the band (Hence the emotional costs :D )

[Celtic Rose]

Fucking hell, I really have to add it up?

DVDs and albums= £80, some I have bought twice etc
Singles= £105 roughly, given the singles I have and the average price I paid for them....
Vinyl= £40
Single/DVD (you know, they come out the same time as the singles with cool videos on?)= £20
T shirts/hoodies/wrist bands/other muse clothing= £200. Easily.
Tickets to gigs= £40
Transport to gigs and accomedation=£150
Matt's birthday presents= £60
Posters= God I don't know, about £60? Does that include all the magazines I bought just for Muse posters as well?
That fucking day I went to Heathrow for the Treasure Hunt= £250 :(
Theres probably a heapload more things that I can't remeber. I once bought a Mathmos bubble ball that glowed blue just because Matt played the piano with one once, it cost me £40. I have a fish called Dom, he cost a couple of bob. It all adds up!

[Gemsy]

That fucking day I went to Heathrow for the Treasure Hunt= £250 :(
:stunned: Just to get to Heathrow?!

[Celtic Rose]

Birmingham to Heathrow cost about £70, then I had to buy another ticket to get back the next day because I bought a day ticket and missed the last train, spent about £30 in an internet cafe, bought all the Dan Brown books, food and water, about 15 buses around London, £30 worth of phone credit....It all adds up. It was great though, totally worth it.

Fuckin' A, that's all right then. :LOL:

[Celtic Rose]

It was fun because I have a record of the whole thing as a series of photos, as soon as I can figure out how to get them on here I will. There is a particularly poinient one of me, knackered, with my shades on, at midnight, at Heathrow with a decoded message on a piece of scrap paper hanging from my mouth, looking like a spaniel thats been kicked. Happy days.:LOL:

[Loopmusic]

no...no...you are insane.:stunned:

[kittee]

mentalist!

[Celtic Rose]

I just love teh moose, what else can I say....?:D

[MONKEH]

your adventure to heathrow sounds amazing, get the photos up!
i don't think anyone can accuse you of not being a true muser. :LOL:

i wish i could have taken part in the anagram fun and stuff :(

[Gemsy]

I thought you spent £250 just on travel. :stunned:
You're still a mental. :LOL:

[Celtic Rose]

All the photos exist in real time only, so I would have to scan them somehow and then get someone smart toturn them into decent sized images as I am rubbish at that.

Oh, and lets not forget, three Muse tattooes= £154

[Cecily]

Omg

Do I have to feel ashamed that I haven't spent so much money om them toll know? :D

[CelticKnight]

What a slightly anally retentive thread this is. :LOL:

I've spent X amount of money on Muse related gubbins. X denotes an amount of money I can't be bothered working out.

[musemoose]

How much have you spent on Muse?

This includes all cds, dvds, posters, merch, gig tickets, train tickets (to muse gigs) etc. Basically- how much richer would you be if Muse did not exist (god forbid).:D

I worked out i have spent about £92- it would be more but my bro already had OoS.

[Britrock]

9 gigs + travel + some merch + 3 albums + a few singles + 1 DVD = a lot. I try not to think about it...

[seregon]

My estimate is £400-500

[Nattywba]

last time i worked it out it was £330.84, in this thread http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=25905&page=10

but i'm sure now it's a hell of a lot more, with wembley and everything.....i'd rather not think about it :stunned: :LOL:

[Earthquake]

two dvds + one gig (parc des princes) + 4 cds + absolution box + 2 t-shirts + book + badges !

[Celtic Rose]

About a grand, if you total in things like transport to gigs, Treasure Hunt, etc......

[stellacotton]

A small fortune!:p

[Althea]

Literally thousands.......I probably shouldn't think about this too much! :p

[Lynzi]

all CD's. My cousin(not me) got me tab book, 2 DVD's 2 posters,guitar pics(that havnt come yet waited a month, stupid Ebay:mad:) so I dunno 80 pounds?,:unsure:

Snacks for the journey £5

A lot of time entertained.. priceless.

Well we will if they do an Auckland gig! I don't know anyone in Auckland...... yet....

[gocanux]

How much have you spent on Muse?

This includes all cds, dvds, posters, merch, gig tickets, train tickets (to muse gigs) etc. Basically- how much richer would you be if Muse did not exist (god forbid).:D

Oh heavens, I really don't want to think about it! By September I will have gone to 22 gigs, all over the US and also to France and UK (separate trips). Plus CD's, DVD's, tees from each concert tour, hoodies, etc etc etc.

It's not the money though; my life is so much richer because of Muse!

[lostkiwibird]

Whatever currency you put it in it's horrendous, albums, dvds, singles, t shirts, tickets, posters, magazines, hot pants :D, er flights from LA to Phoenix, hotel in Phoenix, probably about 800 quid if you don't count the flight from NZ to the States :stunned:
I don't mind making them rich though :happy:

[Shrinking Universe]

Got about all physical formats they ever released:$
...except the first two EPs and five vinyls (2 singles + couldn't be bothered about the overly expensive album 12"s).
It add's up you know:$

[ultramarine]

Can't say exactly, approximately over 1,000 euros. Which is quite a lot for me but it's money well spent.

[Britrock]

I dont think I really want to think about it too much! 26 gig tickets, travel, hotels, merch etc. Several thousand I'd say.

26 gigs? In one year? Are you not bored of them yet? I felt a bit bored after the Wembley weekend if I'm being honest (made it 5 times in a year), kinda need a couple of years off from seeing them to make it special again.

[Degrassi41]

I'm up there in the thousands range. Being from america, you've got to take the trip over to Europe to witness the really intense gigs.

[Firebaptist]

Easily over a grand, including travel, tickets, flights, merch etc etc

Yeah, a lot :unsure:

[Helen T]

26 gigs? In one year? Are you not bored of them yet? I felt a bit bored after the Wembley weekend if I'm being honest (made it 5 times in a year), kinda need a couple of years off from seeing them to make it special again.

Yeah. After my August trip to the U.S it will be 26 gigs in a year. I still get just as excited about each show as I did the first, actually probably more so now.

[gocanux]

Yeah. After my August trip to the U.S it will be 26 gigs in a year. I still get just as excited about each show as I did the first, actually probably more so now.

Got me beat: I will have been to 22 gigs, but over 3 years. Maybe after Colin goes off to college I can become a camp-follower like you, Helen! Everyone needs a hobby, right?

And I must agree; seeing Muse on successive nights only heightens the anticipation!

[Gemsy]

seeing them at 8 gigs at approx £20 per ticket = £160
seeing them at 2 festivals at approx £100 per ticket = £200
5 albums = £70
2 dvds = £25
36 cd + dvd singles at approx £2-3 each = £90
Manson Rust Relic Guitar built for Matt in late 2004 = £2899

:stunned:

I think it's about time they started handing some cash back to us. :LOL:

[Branny]

I can't even assess how much I've spent......

Sonce I last posted in this thread?

My tally is about $2K USD.
And now?

I have 2 debits in my credit card saying that I have added an additional $188 to the cause. :stunned:

[miele]

I've not spent enough, actually.

I first misread the question as: how much time you've spent on Muse.

I'm ashamed to say. :$

[madzip]

Hmmm I think I will have to slightly re-phrase the question as in 'how much has my credit card company spent on Muse'

answer = I dernt add it up

3 gigs + transport + accommodation = £600
5 albums = £50
2 DVD = £30
20 single cd/dvd = £100
Merch = £100

No amount is too much though - I think I have entered into a fausterian deal.

[blissfullymuse]

Easily between £500-£1000

Makes me cry sometimes lolz

[AMfrompoland!!]
