Malaysian Musers Thread

[crazy_mary]

Haha, I did talk to you then crazy_mary :D U're busy with ur phone at the time. Just talk to you to ask if this is the line for Muse instead of Leehom. Hey what are ya talking about, u look young to me. *compliments :D

wah.. suddenly my back doesnt hurt anymore... ur compliment gave me strength n made me feel young again:LOL: alamak.. dont want to 'lupa diri'.. i hope i talked to u in a polite tone.. if not forgive dis old lady, i'm just so used to diciplining 'youngsters' in my line of work..*wink*

hey crazy mary! i think i was one of the ppl who went up and asked for ur help to buy me the tickets which u refused to! hahahah! well i would do the same thing if i was in ur position i think ;) but it was all worth it, the long Q! the stupid noise surrounding that place! n i still manage to get tickets for The Pitt area! no im just 'menghitung hari' till i get to see my Bellamy! :LOL:

seriously shanaz, i think u would at least half expect dat kind of reply rite? it wouldnt be fair 2 d kids behind me who came earlier than u.. but i hope u wouldnt think of me as very snobbish or berlagak coz i was at d front of d line.. i came early and now my back still hurts.. so sorry if i seemed very rude or harsh..i'm a very friendly person on normal n unstressful days..:)

d myfm show was really getting on my nerves.. plus wif d galaxy's chaotic n unorganised way of handling d tickets sale..come to think of if, there mayb some lee hom fans who were also forced to que wif us muse fans..

i seriously hope they'll play stockholm syndrome as well.. n hysteria coz dat's d first song dat made me addicted to muse.. :musesign:

oh vspirit cool link!!! ur mcdonald's free gift thingy is still wif me..should i throw it away?:D

EDIT: it just crossed my mind.. buying d tickets itself was already an event for most us huh? what more d concert..

[kOre]

vspirit - yeah that was one of the best AMV I've seen so far. Even download and put it in my phone *to entertain me during traffic. Thanks!

[nonoor]

u'll be surprised, not that muse has a large fan base here in singapore but for some, they just discovered muse from their latest album and just go see muse live. i'm just afraid that during the oos/showbiz/absolution songs the crowd goes dead
that was from the Muse live in Spore thread..
what if that happens..i hope the ppl who queued up the long, long, lines arent those kinda ppl..it would be very very sad if they suddenly played um sunburn or mm and the crowd goes clueless and um..egh..
anyways, CONGRATULATIONS on getting ur tix :happy:
and poor you, Debs....at least you still get to see them!!

MIIINEEE!!! ALL MINE!!! MUAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA!! i shall take over the universe!!!

hey deb, where did u get dat from? read at microcuts that BHR is gonna b re-released in Asia (most definitely b Japan) and Oz in feb.. doubt dat it will b available here but i wanna c those Reading footage n listen to 'glorious'..

it could happen here muse_music, IF i am not a muse fan i would definitely still go 2 d gig, coz its not often we get 2 c a huge rock act performing in our country.. at least dat was my reason when i went to LP n Hoobastank concert.. i was not really a fan of them.. but i went coz i wanted to c good rock shows.. only after d concert i became hooked wif LP but was really turned off wif hoobastank..but i would rather see d stadium be full wif people (like incubus gig) regardless they're hardcore fans or not, than a half empty stad(like hoobastank).. luke-warm reception would leave very bad impression of us malaysian fans.. guess that was d reason hoobastank not making a stop here after playing in s'pore on d 28th after their lousy concert here ermm last 2 years? or last year?..cant even recall

[mynameisdebbie]

my friend got it for me for my birthday/christmas when she went for a holiday at Tokeeyoooo! i already have Absolution you see, and its my favourite album of the bunch. but my Absolution is the pasar malam version... hehheh. ;)

they're gonna re-release BHR? what for? :S

EDIT

oh, and i juuust bought the junk mag, and i read the article. i think its a bit odd that Muse are called nerds. i just feel like they're being read wrongly! i mean, they are somehow, if i must say, nerdy, but not to the extent where they're the world's greatest nerds! and since when was Chris their bass player/keyboardist????

could anyone else voice out their opinions on this particular 'nerdy' article?

[vspirit]

i have no gripes about it, to be honest. granted, the writing style is a little stale as some s'porean and m'sian english articles are oft to be, but calling them nerds just shows them being viewed from yet another perspective by yet another journalist. that is to say, it's just one of their many facets and i find the one of them being nerds quite charming, truth be told. the writer hadn't written it to mean offensively, simmer down... ^_^;;

=)

and wolstenholme became a bassist/keyboardist the day he decided to play street soccer and ended up injuring his wrist. they actually left out a couple more to that list. he plays the guitar too and i seem to remember him using this shakey mariachi-like thing for a song in a gig some time ago. heck there could be more i don't know about.

[Seance]

halo fellow malaysian muse fans..glad to finally be able to see them live, here in our homesoil...been waiting looong time for this to happened..well, not really but this shud be awesome:)

[Tired.Unhappy]

and poor you, Debs....at least you still get to see them!!

i queued for 3 hours last sunday and yet i do not consider myself as a fan...but of course i listen to their songs everyday as preparation to go to the concert...i will study their current setlist to have an idea what songs they regularly played etc
i knew the existense of muse and how great live band they are etc but i'm too lazy to venture into new bands for the past several years.

[crazy_mary]

hello seance.. welcome to d board..

they're gonna re-packaged BHR wif a dvd of d three vids starlight, KoC and supermassive, plus footage from reading festival..tho' i already haf BHR, i'd still buy it coz of d dvd n a bonus track 'glorious'..but i doubt dat it'll be available here..ur so lucky deb, it'd be bragging myself if i haf dat japanese edition of absolution..

ahhh d 'nerd' issue. i dont actually care what mags call them. but they dont look like nerds to me compared to weezer or even beastie boys (to name a few..). but it does show la dat d person who wrote dat piece must not like/ see/ perceive muse like we do.. matt and dom are super hot for me.. not nerdy..:D

btw who would u guys like 2 c open for muse? i'd go wif butterfingers or search..but not pop shuvit pliss.. cant stand them..

EDIT: Tired.unhappy.. haha i did d same thing for LP gig..i studied and listened to LP's songs everyday like 2 weeks b4 d gig just to make sure i noe songs from their 1st n 2nd album.. it did help coz u'll enjoy d concert more if u noe their songs..

come to butterfingers showcase at zouk kl this saturday...i'm going..was there last saturday for warm up session (first time watch them live) and they were so awesome and the crowd too.

[crazy_mary]

yeah i heard dat they're playing in zouk.. it has been a while since i saw them live, heard dat loque just came from boston to do d gig. but to go to zouk..*pondering* i'm just too old for that..:p

[kOre]

^ agree, sigh...matt and dom. Btw beastie boys *slightly older nerd* will be in town. Performing in Kiara on the 22nd, Feb. This might be one of the reason Muse will be playing in Bukit Jalil. I prefer it there too. The bigger the better.

I wonder how it goes with the ticket sale. U guys saw any promotion going on around? Me - nada. Kinda sad don't u think.

[crazy_mary]

SERIOUSLY????!!!!! *jumping up and down* gosh.. i'm definitely going to c those nerds, nah.. adrock, mca and mike d are not nerds.. they're way cooler than that akon fella.. i heard from vspirit that they might b coming coz they're coming to s'pore dis feb.. omg two concerts back to back.. i'm in heaven.. am searching 4 info on the beasties..

btw bukit jalil? not stadium negara???

[kOre]

My bad :p Stadium Negara. got it confused hahahaha

ps - beastie boys, was on The Star today

[Bakumatsu]

but of course i listen to their songs everyday as preparation to go to the concert...i will study their current setlist to have an idea what songs they regularly played etc
i knew the existense of muse and how great live band they are etc but i'm too lazy to venture into new bands for the past several years.

they always play well known songs like time is running out, plug in baby, supermassive, in every gig, but somehow people some people find quite boring when they play those songs every time, so regularly some not well known songs like citizen erased , b & h are slot into their setlist, they always try to balance their setlist from the first,second,third and forth album, so its pretty much difficult for them to sort it out, and they just put some random songs at first, the middle, and so on....

but now after black holes and revelations, i always find muse commonly put knights of cydonia for their finale song and map of the problematique for the intro, and its very sad that showbiz and oos songs like filip,microcuts,cave,uno,unitended has been left out, because matt always mention they have been playin those songs for ages, so songs from oos and showbiz are not much played now in their current setlist for now.....

[Tired.Unhappy]

yeah i heard dat they're playing in zouk.. it has been a while since i saw them live, heard dat loque just came from boston to do d gig. but to go to zouk..*pondering* i'm just too old for that..:p

i'm not young either...i just sat at the back and record the show..
there;s some chairs and tables at the back for those not so young at heart ppl.

opening acts this saturday are damn dirty apes, oag and republic of brickfields

[Bakumatsu]

come to butterfingers showcase at zouk kl this saturday...i'm going..was there last saturday for warm up session (first time watch them live) and they were so awesome and the crowd too.

in axcess ticket website..the status for muse tix is hotselling.
if muse concert was successful i hope it will encourage the organizers to allure more great bands to hold a concert here...instead of D grade artists
i will support any decent bands that will peform here...

[Tired.Unhappy]

tell me about it.. my car insurance, road tax and driving license all will b expired next month.. :( *digging some holes to find money*

just came back from a friend's place after checking the star at her table...details bout d beasties concert will only b released next week.. even went 2 pineapple concert website and mr lionel richie was still on the page.. they never up dated their website ke???

cool pic of matt bakumatsu.. did u draw it?

EDIT: after looking at it again.. it's not a drawing..

[Bakumatsu]

haha its just photoshopped,

[mynameisdebbie]

cool pic. he looks very liquidy metal. what layer did you use?? or filter? do a Dom one! :LOL:

[vspirit]

hm...so the beasties really are coming to town as well?

...should i or shouldn't i? i don't know enough cos i don't really dig their sound...

Yes: cos it's the dudes.

No: i'd be smelling, tasting and seeing manure for days to come. it might even linger around on sunday, still. that, and i'd be risking injury to myself 3 days before the big day.

and everything on that axcess site seems to be 'hotselling', even that rain character, whose concert tickets were available in sg. wang that day as well, at the booth south by southwest of MUSE's, which my friend (you've met her, crazy) claimed to have not even seen a shadow lingering in front of, despite the crowded condition all around...

[sh3ikh]

Muse is comming to KL Feb 25. Is their anyway to get passes to meet the band? Thx!

[petrucci]

i really hope that they'll play SHOWBIZ and CITIZEN ERASED in the concert here...

[aMUSEing ShAnNaZ]

*sigh* i doubt they will play Showbiz here, but Citizen Erased....they just HAVE TO!!! it wont be a MUSE concert without Citizen Erased! ;)

[crazy_mary]

i seriously hope that u'd go to d beasties gig vspirit... if u wanna save ur energy for sunday, u could always just sit at d concert. i've been a fan of them longer than i've been a fan of muse... no doubt that their music is quite difficult to digest. i remember lending my beasties cds to a friend and he returned 'em the next day..:LOL: but like muse they r also amazing live with mix master mike on d turn table..

yes, i agree shannaz, if they dont play citizen erased n space dementia than d show would not b complete!! bring a banner of "citizen erased" and i'll bring one with "space dementia" on one side and "hysteria" on d other...:p n another banner of "marry me matt" :$ to d concert

[vspirit]

you can sit? cos i'm under the impression that you can't.

and it's not so much that their music is difficult to digest as it is not really the kind of music i'd listen to at all simply because i'm not very attracted to its sound. you can't seriously say MUSE's stuff is 'easy to digest'. I have a history of liking, really liking, bands that aren't necessarily 'easy to digest', not because they are experimental, it's just that they're not pop, plain and simple. cos really, 'easy to digest' just means pop to me at the end of the day. 'pop rock', if it has a rockish edge to it. don't get me wrong, tho, cos i like pop as much as the next casual music listener, which is to say, just fine. i just don't get into it so much cos like i said, it's all casual listenin'.

back to the beasties, i heard a couple from them that i kind of like but i wasn't attracted to their sound in general enough to have delved deeper into what they're about. but i revere them as a long-standing and outstanding enough band to seriously considering checking them out cos theirs might be a live show i could get into, if their reputation holds true. i get into music played live easier than i do music recorded and played back, especially for music that is essentially good, but just not really something i'd listen to on a regular basis.

that said, i seriously think i might go but only if i'm absolutely sure it won't wear me out until Sunday. it being the middle of school holidays and all, too many kids with too much energy to spare might be there to stomp small-boned people like me who are prolly small enough to not even show up on radar to the ground. and also if the tix prices are reasonable and well within my range of affordability after getting double-whammied by MUSE. and of course, if i don't have to go through too much trouble to get the tix.

[petrucci]

have any of u guys try to play citizen erased n showbiz in the jamming studio??? both songs make me "naik sheikh" when we played those songs...those songs are sooo "berhantu"... but i doubt that they'll play showbiz in the gig here...huhuhuhu...yeah SHANNAZ...it's not a muse gig if they dont play citizen erased...let's just hope they'll play both of them... :D GO GO MAN UTD!!!

[crazy_mary]

well there are seats in bkt kiara.. there were people sitting when i went there for incubus and hoobastank so i assume u can just sit n enjoy d show. i'm not saying that muse is easy to digest.. but with d beasties its harder if u listen to their albums.. to say that they're a hip hop group would be wrong if u've heard of 'so what u want' n 'sabotage' but to say them a rock band would only b inapropriate as they rap a lot.. but one thing for sure is that they are amazing live. well, from what i've heard and seen..

it is during d school holidays isnt it? hmm there might b some underage punks pushing especially if d tix r cheap.. i assume dat d tix will be a one price free standing/ seating thingy since that is always d case for concerts at bkt kiara..so pushing is guaranteedd!!:mad:

[mynameisdebbie]

so pushing is guaranteedd!!:mad:

YES pushing guaranteed indeed! :mad: and lotsa horny groping men. at SP, a whole bunch of people were pushing us and a few of my friends fell down and it was all very havoc-y! and i heard lotsa girls shouting "omg someone touched my butt!"... me being one of them -___- but one thing i liked about Simple Plan was that i started lining up at about 5, and i got to the second row! teeheehee. you can easily do that at Bukit Kiara.

i hope it wont be so pushy in The Pitt. but oh who am i kidding? of course it'll be. and i bet many fans are gonna be moshing too. i'm getting scared :eek: i dowanna get injured. eek.

Is their anyway to get passes to meet the band? Thx!

HAH. i wish :( :( :( i hope some radio station or music channel will have some competition for backstage passes though... and maybe a free autographed guitar! omg! :eek: with REALLY HARD QUESTIONS.... that only hardcore Muse fans can answer! like name all the bonus tracks from all of Muse's albums. and name 2 b-sides! er.. yeah stuff like that. bahaha.

as if la. :( *wipes tear*

[vspirit]

wow...the only time i went there was to watch that starlight cinema thingy and that was only once and aeons ago to boot. so i assumed that everything would be held at that area with all the wide open space, which is also why i thought it'd be entirely free standing, like a park show or something.

and all i remember from it was...the smell. the stink of horsie poo. if i were a plant i'd be fertilized by the smell alone. if i do end up going, i'm gonna bring along a clothes peg.

[Seance]

well i do hope they'll play citizen erased and bunch of stuff from symmetry cuz imo that is their best material. im so starved for good concert experience that i'll be going to both shows even though im not a fanboi ;)

[crazy_mary]

did u notice at sg wang when we bought d tix hitz.fm and channel v r d official radio n tv channel? i even heard on hitz's school of rock dat they will b giving away s'thing (might only b tix or even meet n greet passes) for MUSE concert. i'm not sure but there might b hope u noe.. i'll try my best to listen a lot to hitz n watch channel v next month.


and all i remember from it was...the smell. the stink of horsie poo. if i were a plant i'd be fertilized by the smell alone. if i do end up going, i'm gonna bring along a clothes peg.

[crazy_mary]

[vspirit]

malaysian concert organizers, lol.

don't they know that making thoughtless little statements like that will only half sales, not double 'em? i guess that's also part of why concert tix never get sold out here and sometimes even fall below the band's expectation which ultimately results in them never ever coming back for another gig. another nice little example of malaysia's habit of moving three steps forward and two steps back, i guess.

i reckon we've still got a long way to go as far as holding and promoting concerts go. actually, no, let me rephrase that. we've yet still got a long way to go. period.

but what can i do, right? i still love my country.

[noisemonkie]

Anybody from KL or Malaysia going down to Singapore for the Fort Canning gig? I'm gonna buy the KL tix after the S'pore gig!

...Anyway the Beastie Boys gig scheduled for next month is cancelled. Triple major bummer! :(

When are you going down to S'pore bro? I'm leaving for S'pore tomorrow..midnight.

Have you buy tix for the KL gig? I heard it's selling fast.

No Beastie! Bummer! :(

[crazy_mary]

pssst.. noisemonkie, any chance of u giving me one of those tix of urs?:D

basically all of us have gotten our tix for d KL gig, but not as lucky as u who r going to check 'em first in s'pore.. tell us d details of d gig pliss.. and u too vspirit..

pliss dont start on d beasties.. i might start crying again..

lol bakumatsu..borat, u actually watched that?

[Nutcracker]

Debbie it's such a waste ur not coming to my beeautiful country :rolleyes: to watch muse! But von, i'll be seeing you, man. I think i'll jus hang around near the entrance after the show ok? Hopefully you can somehow remember my mug. And unfortunately i din get to make me own Muse tee. But i know i'll b wearing a white tee with black pants, and cool white shoes. Im really hoping against all hope that it won't be muddy...

Im jus curious, though. Since Johor is having a major flood, how's ur bus coming here?

I wot be able to access to the net after today till Muse day, so till then... I really hope we can meet up. :D

[vspirit]

i dunno, man but the service website didn't say anything and i remember once asking if the floods are gonna be a problem and i think the lady said the route isn't affected cos it's the highway...or summat...

you prolly won't get to read this til after the show anyway. well around the entrance right? just stay put and look as if you're waiting for someone and we'd prolly find you...maybe. xxD

dont bother about that mary..we had bought the ticket and what we had to do now is just wait for the big day and just go there...we deserve to get what we had patiently waited for....it's just a propaganda made to test us....the true muse fanatic..:)

[mynameisdebbie]

Debbie it's such a waste ur not coming to my beeautiful country :rolleyes: to watch muse!

yeah... *cries* i think i'm the only malaysian who hasnt visited Singapore yet. pfft. damn it if only i was 5 years older... i'll be squeeeling like a little girl again cause i'll be able to see Muse in 24 hours!.. well, 24.5 hours anyway. but no, i had to be 17 this year. with my SPM coming up. bugger. meh.

vspirit i bet you're damn excited now! take as many pics as you can and tell us ALL about it! have fun! but dont have too much fun... :( i dont wanna know what i missed. and yet, i kinda do. man i cant stop contradicting myself.

and after my last log in which was 3 days ago... i finally got some PMs on my selling the Singaporean Muse Ticks! lol. all on the same day too. lol Thank God for last minute people :LOL:

[crazy_mary]

i've never been to s'pore either, oh well.. d gig is like 24 hours from now..i'm not going but am excited wif d idea that they're in SEA rite now.. haf fun vspirit and noisemonkie, pliss fill us in wif details.. esp d setlist of songs they played!

ibelieveinmuse, i dont give a damn as well, but d fact dat they issued a statement like dat really annoys me as it shows a kind of discrimination to a certain group of people.. but i guess they (tiger especially) had to announce dat just to cover their own arses if there r any complaints made by anyone esp those who r in d left wing political party in our country.. u noe, it really should be US to decide not them.. *sorry.. here i go when it comes to our local socio-political issues..* but as someone said in dis board.. what can i do? i love my country..

hmm..wat should i do 2moro since my mind will b 100% about MUSE n d spore gig?
1. show up late to work
2. Read Junk mag wif muse on d cover for d 100th time at work
3. wear all black just to show i'm depressed
4. listen to ALL (well i dont haf showbiz) their albums n pretend i'm at their concert
5. eat all d chocolates that i can find..
6. go to il divo conert.. bleh.. mayb not!

come on man...just wait for the moment...26th feb...aaahhhh...i cant wait it too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yea wait for the moment..wait for it to come and go as i sit and sit helplessly, while you guys are enjoying yourselves there.
i missed them! wow i dont believe it..

i have a feeling theyre staying at M Hotel now..coz that's where The Click 5 were when they came to Spore:happy:

vspirit, i really dont mean to be rude, but quickly get ur bum here and tell us what happened!:D

[vspirit]

uh...the show itself ws incredible, i`ll give the band that but the moshing was intolerable. the style of moshing was really REALLY bad. so bad, my friend and i, who were in the 7th row from the stage, almost died in there either by a) being trampled on, b) suffocation or c)both. we got pushed down to the ground and bodies were falling on top of us and no one would help us. no one could. we seriously tot we were gonna die. i held up my arm and kept yelling for help (with Hysteria playing in the background...how ironically fitting...i loved that song and...well, i still do but everytime i listen to it, it`ll be laced with some bad memories now. =( it got to the point that my usually good natured fren resorted to yelling "Fucker!" repeatedly in between Hysteria and SMBH in order to be heard til somehow, someway, someone realized and helped him back up. which was about the time i was helped back up, too. by then the two of us couldn't stand it anymore and had to be helped up and out. yeah, we were one of those poor saps. but we were too desperate to care to be embarrassed. i almost lost my bag in the mosh too. my bag of crackers were smashed beyond belief and my fren, who was afraid of beng pickpocketed still lost his change anyway, ironically because they fell out during the hysteria.

after that i was too disoriented to care what the next tune being played was which was why MoTP was blanked out for me. I was catching my breath on the side, fully lying on the ground.

I somehow managed to enjoy the rest of the show from a further area where i could still see them clearly enough and there was actually room to breathe but i guess sometime during then Bliss must`ve become a total blank for me. also managed to retain the presence of mind to grab a t-shirt while newborn was being played.

aaaand also managed to snap some pics thanks to my fren (i'd be crushed to death already if it weren`t for him) and i snapped a few myself as well. a lot, were of course, unusable and promptly deleted but still got some not-too-shabby shots in. will upload those when i get back and now traipsing around singapore at midnight like suspicious tramps. god, i miss my bed.

didn't meet the band tho. we tried to wait a little but then had to hightail it back before the last train back to our port of call., which is where we are now. =)

uh...the show itself ws incredible, i`ll give the band that but the moshing was intolerable. the style of moshing was really REALLY bad. so bad, my friend and i, who were in the 7th row from the stage, almost died in there either by a) being trampled on, b) suffocation or c)both. we got pushed down to the ground and bodies were falling on top of us and no one would help us. no one could. we seriously tot we were gonna die. i held up my arm and kept yelling for help (with Hysteria playing in the background...how ironically fitting...i loved that song and...well, i still do but everytime i listen to it, it`ll be laced with some bad memories now. =( it got to the point that my usually good natured fren resorted to yelling "Fucker!" repeatedly in between Hysteria and SMBH in order to be heard til somehow, someway, someone realized and helped him back up. which was about the time i was helped back up, too. by then the two of us couldn't stand it anymore and had to be helped up and out. yeah, we were one of those poor saps. but we were too desperate to care to be embarrassed. i almost lost my bag in the mosh too. my bag of crackers were smashed beyond belief and my fren, who was afraid of beng pickpocketed still lost his change anyway, ironically because they fell out during the hysteria.

Overall i must say i wasn't satisfied with the show, with the freakin disgusting moshing. But because it was Muse, i know i had to stay on all the way man. I was somewhere like the 2nd row and i was fuckin singing while being pushed sideways, forward and crushed from above by people who needed to evacuate or simply body surfing for no good reason other than to enjoy themselves and making people esp me lose concentration of the show,

Before Knights came on as the first song, people already started to push forward and damn it, when Matt come out, made me realise how bloody skinny he is! And his blue eyes are daaammn nice. HAha i can't believe im saying this. But i din get to enjoy the whole song as much as i wanted....... I hated that.

I think the crushing got lesser after a few songs and the show was more enjoyable when the lousy security dudes started to give us water. I think by the second song (Hysteria? But i seriously can't remember the exact order of songs being played) my whole Tee was freakin drenched from sweat.

But if i take away all the crushing and moshing, last night i just attended the greatest show on earth. I seriously hope they'll keep their word and come here again.

Von, i knew it was impossible to catch u after the show. I seriously thought that there were too many people. According to yesterday's local straits times, 6000+ tickets were sold. It was such a shame to not have met up. Sorry if you had waited long afer that. What time did u join the Q? Me and a whole group of us came around 2? And we were somewhere around the 20+ person. But a little later we joined our frens nearer to the gate where it was like the 2nd group from the gate. heh heh. I felt ashamed of doing it but i wouldn't wana be left out from my group. And the first group of people arrived at 630:eek: .
Im anxious to see your photos. My sis took some with her camera phone but it's quite lousy but i have something to look at heh heh :D .

Donno which song this was. heh.

EDIT: check out this page for pro pics. Plus a freakin bootleg of the show!! donno the quality, dl it at the moment. Look for a post by musenut on the page.
http://soft.com.sg/web/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=338378#338378

And oh yeah, the greatest moment of the show, for me, was to pop a BALLOON!! The last one i think, where Dom was stroking on his snare and just as i popped it, he stopped. I'd like to think that he was waiting for that one to pop then he'd stop. I'm so proud of meself.

[mynameisdebbie]

yea wait for the moment..wait for it to come and go as i sit and sit helplessly, while you guys are enjoying yourselves there.
i missed them! wow i dont believe it..

WHAT ABOUT ME?!?!?!!?!!!!??? :( :( :(
i bought the freakin tickets! i was holding it in my hands! and yet i sold them off for 20 bucks cheaper than what i paid for. dangnammit

i hope you guys still had fun despite the bad mad crowd. i hope the Pitt at KL isnt gonna be as crazy as that.... seriously. :stunned: i'm really scared now. knowing me and my fragile bones and history of dislocating my patella (knee cap), i pray i dont get injured when i'm at The Pitt next month. *sniff*

the only good thing i can think of about my missing the singaporean gig, is that i could be with my best friend on her last day in KL before she flies off to Australia! *sniffs even more* :(

muse_music, how come you cant come to the KL gig? its on a Sunday! you wont have to skip school. :)

[crazy_mary]

Donno which song this was. heh.


awww.. can i hug him?? *hears starlight playing in my head*

thnx 4 d link nutcracker, n those lucky people meeting them by chance on the streets!! perhaps i shud be wandering and hanging around KLCC when they're here..

better start exercising just to keep in shape in a month's time 4 d gig in KL. vspirit, keep d pitt tix, dont let one bad experience change ur mind..hopefully d crowd in msia will b more civilised. they shuld noe its stupid to push,surf or mosh or watever doing other violent acts during d concert. its not everyday or every year we get to see 'em live..

[noisemonkie]

Just reached KL. A quick post. Will post pics and vids (if the net connection permits!) later. Cheers!

I'm not sure whether you guys have watch this: http://www.stomp.com.sg/stompcast/

[vspirit]

Hey Nutz! Yea, I actually shouted your name. I even got one of the event ushers to help out. We were all going like, "Leaf! Leeeeeeaf!" but you weren't there anymore. =((( Granted, I waited until the crowd thinned before I did that. I thought you'd wait til then as well. Why didn't you? *sob* Meeting you would've helped brighten up my night further.

Wow, some of the pictures on that site are absolutely fantastic. Not just the position, but the photographer has some l33t skills!! I prolly still wouldn't have been able to get that quality even if I were all alone and the guys posed specifically for me. -.-;;;;

And to everyone, from where I was (about 7 rows away from the stage before I gave up and left the mosh area), the pushing and jostling were very, very bad. Most of my pictures are blurred by shakiness and well, very concert-photo-taken-by-fan-ish. My friend took most of them and given his position, the shots are actually decent, though some are tilted because of...well yanno, things happen. If I were to have done it, all of them would be pretty bad. I did get some not-so-bad ones myself from further away where there wasn't as much jostling tho. I'm thankful that my camera's zoom isn't half bad. If it is, the pictures will come out looking a lot worse than they already are. But none of them are actually close-ups and the guys all still came out looking more like aliens than anything and it was REALLY hard to get Howard from our vantage point. And from that one picture of Bellamy, I must say that Nutz' ones will most certainly be better than mine. I deleted a whole bunch and these are the remaining ones that narrowly made the cut. But then again, my standard wasn't all that high to begin with. So....don't expect too much, OK? Apologies for my tardiness, btw. My entire body's one giant ache now. Er...actually that really doesn't have much to do with anything, does it? Ahahaha...

GREAT!!!
uh-huh
...not especially. weird is the norm for him anyway.
apparently he didn't.
someone mentioned that he did, a little, but i didn't catch any of it.
i don't think you did cos you weren't there. unless you have super farsight or something, and can see across the causeway...
yeah he did
thanks!!!
yeah, quite a bit. a lot of "Thanks, Singapore!"s and he did a bit of crowd bantering (tho it's mostly dom) but for bellamy, i'd daresay he spoke quite a bit that night.
claps back:D:D

EDIT: to crazy_mary: you're most welcome, lovely. ;)

[Seance]

glad most of u guys enjoy the show but i thought it was pretty average... probably because i cannot hear matt's voice clearly... i hope they'll fix taht for the kl show

[vspirit]

yeah? i heard him loud and clear. even while in the midst of being crushed to death, he was all i could hear ringing in my ears. not so bad a sound to die to, really, but i didn't wanna be moshed to death... xxxD not the way i wanted to go really...

and well, i wouldn't hold my breath for the KL one seeing as the venue is Stadium Negara. If it's Bukit Jalil, rest assured the sound will at least be decent but then that's because it's an outdoor. but Stadium Negara, being an indoor type, has not-so-great acoustics. so it gets echoey...

And to everyone, from where I was (about 7 rows away from the stage before I gave up and left the mosh area), the pushing and jostling were very, very bad. Most of my pictures are blurred by shakiness and well, very concert-photo-taken-by-fan-ish. My friend took most of them and given his position, the shots are actually decent, though some are tilted because of...well yanno, things happen. If I were to have done it, all of them would be pretty bad. I did get some not-so-bad ones myself from further away where there wasn't as much jostling tho. I'm thankful that my camera's zoom isn't half bad. If it is, the pictures will come out looking a lot worse than they already are. But none of them are actually close-ups and the guys all still came out looking more like aliens than anything and it was REALLY hard to get Howard from our vantage point. And from that one picture of Bellamy, I must say that Nutz' ones will most certainly be better than mine. I deleted a whole bunch and these are the remaining ones that narrowly made the cut. But then again, my standard wasn't all that high to begin with. So....don't expect too much, OK? Apologies for my tardiness, btw. My entire body's one giant ache now. Er...actually that really doesn't have much to do with anything, does it? Ahahaha...

note001: #9> the final pic taken right before my friend got pushed down. I think they were still doing KoC...maybe. Everything after that were taken from slightly further away where it's easier to breathe.
note002: # 21>here's the answer to your earlier text-messaged question, deb.
note003: #28> much apologies about my shabby "modelling" :$ ^^; just tot it'd look nicer on a body rather than on a flat, inanimate surface...though I'm pretty close to that as well so there really isn't any difference...xD got it while they were playing Newborn *chuckles*

all in all, it's an awe-inspiring performance, tho I'm gonna need a t-shirt that says, "MUSE concert survivor". =) you guys have much to look forward to on the 25th.

Von i can't believe u called out my name together with an usher! U know after the show i was a little light headed and was staggering for awhile lol. Right now i'm seriously considering going for the KL gig. Tix are still available rite? any idea where i can get em in singapore?

Some pretty good pics u got there! u weren't that far from the stage initially eh? And that tee is sooo awessooome heh heh. I hate myself for not buying any merch. I shld've known better than to wait till after the show to pay a visit to the booths. They only had tiny microscopic badges left that were going for $10 for 3-5 pcs i think? And they were selling tthe ugly posters outside for $10 too.

I did me own tee with the design i made. I think it's just OK. Costs $25.90. A rip off in my opinion.

[orga_laut]

hello everyone!!! I just want to know that is it true that their gig in Malaysia is only for non-Muslim!!!Damn, I hope it isn't true because everyone should be allowed to watch them live..we really need a big crowd here in Malaysia.If this event is only restricted for non-Muslim only, I'm afraid I will lose this once in a life time chance to see them live...arghhhh...Anyone here know anything about it????

only for non-muslim??
no la ... thats not true ..

im a muslim myself, n lots of muslim friends are going to kL gigs .. theres no such thing as only for non-muslim gig bulshait ..

nope.

[dontjump86]

only for non-muslim??
no la ... thats not true ..

im a muslim myself, n lots of muslim friends are going to kL gigs .. theres no such thing as only for non-muslim gig bulshait ..

nope.
thks...I just check the www.galaxy.com.my and no such thing about it. My friends gimme a wrong info earlier..haha..kinda of dumb..


p/s.kinda changed the post earlier

[nonoor]

muse_music, how come you cant come to the KL gig? its on a Sunday! you wont have to skip school. :)

coz i doubt anybody would send me there..
and i doubt anyone would even help me get a ticket..
seriously noone's gonna "waste their time" for that..

[fipoch]

The majority of the people who waited in line for the tickets were malays. Well I think most probably they say the concert will only be for non muslims cuz they want to avoid religious groups like JAIS coming down on them because they're serving alcohol there.

[crazy_mary]

dis issue again... peeps, its only a kind of disclaimer issued by d tiger people to save their own arses from any complaints.. hoobastank gig was also sponsored by tiger, n yeah there were alcohol there.. but this is a free country, everyone has a right to do wat their want! so ignore d 'non-muslim only' thingy and pliss ignore d alcohol as well at d gig if ur a muslim!!

look how awesome vspirit's pix n d spore thread is..i'm not gonna let anything stupid like dat stops me from seeing MUSE!

EDIT: *after looking at my tix again * no mention about a non-muslim only event thingy..

[jerrysoon]

Hello all!
I'm Jerry from KL, Malaysia. I was at the muse concert too! Nice to meet you all..

[jackson_asdf]

Hello all!
I'm Jerry from KL, Malaysia. I was at the muse concert too! Nice to meet you all..

you was at muse concert??? when did this happen?? i don't see no muse concert until 25th Feb..

btw i was shocked to see so many Muse fans from Malaysia.. i dun really expect much ppl in malaysia who support Muse.. btw i bought tix in the moshpit for RM233.. I heard the seating plan is extermely far from the stage... anywayz who's with me in the moshpit???

MUSE forever!!

[orga_laut]

you was at muse concert??? when did this happen?? i don't see no muse concert until 25th Feb..

urmm .. last tuesday nite.. on the 16th ..
they rocked fort canning. the best concert ever!

[kOre]

Just reached KL. A quick post. Will post pics and vids (if the net connection permits!) later. Cheers!

I'm not sure whether you guys have watch this: http://www.stomp.com.sg/stompcast/

^ They're playing for 6,500 peeps in Singapore, so what about here in Malaysia, Stadium Negara? Seriously, I never been there. How many could it accommodate?

[crazy_mary]

should b more than 6500 peeps eh kore? hopefully d stadium will be full. u noe after reading d spore thread am quite nervous bout d concert. so many people were complaining about how rowdy d sporean crowd was and the water bottle throwing was rude! i just wish (x10000) that those things wont happen here considering that d KL gig is not a free standing event. hopefully people in d pitt will be civilised (well, not just stand there n watch) and not stupid enough to push or crowd surfing or moshing coz i dont want to b reminded of my horrible' incubus concert' experince..

[Seance]

yeah? i heard him loud and clear. even while in the midst of being crushed to death, he was all i could hear ringing in my ears. not so bad a sound to die to, really, but i didn't wanna be moshed to death... xxxD not the way i wanted to go really...

and well, i wouldn't hold my breath for the KL one seeing as the venue is Stadium Negara. If it's Bukit Jalil, rest assured the sound will at least be decent but then that's because it's an outdoor. but Stadium Negara, being an indoor type, has not-so-great acoustics. so it gets echoey...

yeah i think its probably just the case of me standing too close to the stage/wrong section of the crowd.. im not holding my breath for kl performance either..need to keep my expectation in check and try to enjoy the show as much as possible

[guilt-stricken]

Hello there. I've been lurking around the msg board for quite some time now, finally coming out of my hiding place to catch up with fellow Malaysian Musers. So yeah, hi. :)

I got my Muse concert tickets (RockZone) the other day @ Sg. Wang. Came around 12.15pm with another friend (that I dragged along) and the queue was already close to the KFC entrance. I was really surprised and impressed to see Muse fans queueing up for hours. And oh, it'll be cool to meet other 'real' Muse fans on that day. I can honestly say that none of my classmates from college know who or what kind of songs Muse plays. It's depressing.

But anyway, after reading a couple of concert experiences from the Singapore thread, I find myself vaguely afraid of being trampled all over come Feb 25th. Of course, what's a rock concert without a little bit of moshing right? But yeah. I was at Rock The World 7 recently and the crowd at the main stage was crazy. I just hope most Muse fans would be decent enough to rock out to the music and not just push people like crazy.

All in all though, I can't hardly wait for the actual event. We've been deprived of good concerts for so long! (Last main event worth mentioning: Incubus @ bkt Kiara.)

[fused]

hi i'm from singapore. muse was just godly that night. the crowd was full of energy but the sad thing was it ended too soon and i cant got enough of them...

i'm thinking of catching them in kl..

[mynameisdebbie]

hello everyone! welcome to the board, guilt-stricken :)

ok i would multi quote most of you, but i'm too lazy.. so i'll just repeat what you guys are saying. after reading the Singapore thread, i am absolutely terrified :eek: since i'm only 16 (going on 17, meaning SPM this year), i'm short, physically unfit with extremely fragile bones and my knee caps on both knees have a tendency of dislocating itself randomly. but it hasnt happened in a while though.

but... but... ITS MUUUUSE. and for us unfortunate beings who missed the Singaporean gig, this could be the one and only time we can ever see Muse live in our entire lives.

so therefore, i really really REAAALLLY hope that The Pitt wont be so horrible like what happened in Singapore. i mean come on, most of us are paying lotsa cash just to get into The Pitt to enjoy Muse and jump around and stuff.. not to push around like a bunch of hooligans.

so here's my er... bright idea. why dont we all go as a group, and NOT push! lol. there's a lot of us here at the board and i'm sure we'll be going with our friends too. and come on, who likes pushing? its dangerous and uncivilized. so if we go together as a huge huge group, we could scream stuff like "We're boarders" and we can help each other out if someone falls over and stuff..

good or bad idea? :D please dont flame me.. :LOL:

[crazy_mary]

agree wif u deb n guilt_stricken , its not every year we get to see 'em live here so i hope people would cherish every moment of d concert in a non-violent and non-rowdy ways... jumping up n down is normal but to push other people untill they fall or feel suffocated is way insane! i really like when LP came here, mike shinoda kept saying that if someone falls u pick him up..that is actually d general rule of any gig.. people did fall during their gig like 3/4 rows from where i stood, but others helped them up quickly. i hope that kind of spirit still exist especially on d 25th feb..n even bands like fugazi always start their show with reminding their fans not to be too violent..so if there are people saying dat falling n being violant r normal in a rock gig, then there's something wrong wif that person..

do u think we should go as group? i'm sure all of us will be arriving at d stadium in different times.. so that would be difficult.

rock the world crowd is always crazy coz most of 'em r school kids wif too much energy.. so they tend to be wild and irritating.. been to a few of earlier rock d worlds.. loved d performances hated d crowd..

[kOre]

Hullo guilt_stricken, hey I was somewhere near KFC too. Welcome :D

so here's my er... bright idea. why dont we all go as a group, and NOT push! lol. there's a lot of us here at the board and i'm sure we'll be going with our friends too. and come on, who likes pushing? its dangerous and uncivilized. so if we go together as a huge huge group, we could scream stuff like "We're boarders" and we can help each other out if someone falls over and stuff..

good or bad idea? :D please dont flame me.. :LOL:

^ hey its a great idea but I don't know any of you. Hmm... why don't we tie a bright colored ribbon on our wrist that day so we could recognize each other. Hahaha. Yeah I know, lame :LOL: but hey if you guys are up to it, I proposed a black/red ribbon. *Purely selfish reason, coz it'll match my outfit. Hahaha

[mynameisdebbie]

i dont mind the ribbon idea :) ooh i like that combination.. red and black. but i doubt it'll match my outfit. bahaha. unless we all get really bright coloured ribbons to tie on our wrists. the brighter the colour, the more obvious it is i suppose. aaand, the more unique it is i guess, even if it doesnt match. :LOL:

and crazy_mary is right... some of us might start lining up at a different time. i was thinking of going there right after my lunch :p anybody gonna camp there?? :LOL:

[ibelieveinmuse]

:D kinda like that idea for showing how civilized we are,i really cannot accept those kind of harsh pushing or bottle throwing as it definately could hurt people(that's why i choose seating tix)but as i might be free from that moshing and pushing,i felt quite responsible for bringing up good impression to muse of us malaysian musers and for that reason me myself now had started to advice those whom i know had bought the ticket not to do such badass stuff like what had happened in fort canning...well,i dont think this will definately give a good result but it's worth trying to contribute sumthing that could give us good reason for being a muse fanatic...who knows they'll fall in love with malaysian crowd and will come here more often(o lord i'd be damn glad if this happens)

anyway i got another free copy of the sun(for grabbing slurpee@7eleven) and found out that tiger's having contest where 22tickets up for grab but i'm afraid that this only open to non muslim and above 18,how i hate to mention this again but then again dont worry guys,i'm sure there'll be more contest in this few weeks before the concert and keep on announcing updates in this thread....;)

[vspirit]

i like the group idea...just so we can reinforce one another. lord knows i don't wanna go through what i did again. i was even a little pissed at MUSE for not having the decency to even mention something onstage but then maybe they really were just that oblivious. *shrug* either way i now know that one can't depend on them for anything but a good performance (but really, what would be the point of it at all if some of the audience aren't even alive to see the end of it? xxD). guess i really shouldn't ask for more. and while it's true it's every man for himself, sometimes, when someone's at a physical disadvantage, a little caring towards the wellbeing of others wouldn't hurt.

ya know, maybe we should all just agree to meet up all at once before the day of the show. like pick a random date before the 25th when everyone (or the majority of everyone anyway) is available and have some sort of a get-together somewhere, ya know? kinda like a MUSE concert survival club thingy... what say all of ya?

EDIT: oh right, hello thar, jerry. and welcome to the boards. and thread, by extension. xP

[mynameisdebbie]

and your idea of making the "i survived a Muse gig" t-shirt comes in handy right about now :LOL:

[crazy_mary]

perhaps we can find a way to get that shirt printed in honour of vspirit..:p

EDIT: its kinda nice of u ibelieveinmuse to advise people not to b a badass during d gig n i actually kinda like d ribbon idea.. but d shirt would b way better..

[vspirit]

xxxD make sure it says "MUSE gig survivor" or it won't count. *snerks*

[aMUSEing ShAnNaZ]

i think im gonna camp there, im only goin with my sister, we should be there at 1pm i think! im gonna bring foods n drinks n everything else needed while waiting....:LOL:

[Nutcracker]

I've googled for some pics of stadium negara, and i think it looks daamn sweeeet, with that dome-d roof. I've already decided that i'll be going to KL!!!! This gig is going to be much better than Fort Canine (pun intended), hands down.

[vspirit]

^is that the cue for me to start looking at budget hotels on your behalf?

[mynameisdebbie]

hoh! i just noticed! the Singapore gig was Muse's first gig of 2007...

[Nutcracker]

^is that the cue for me to start looking at budget hotels on your behalf?

Yes, please! If you really don't mind. It's not that you have to, you know. I know we all are busy ants and we would rather spend our precious free time doing something that's not to bothersome. And it's sucha boring thing to do, I feel. heh heh. My bro is also asking for the cheapest accomodation so that he and his group of friends can go too. So, in the end i guess you'll be doing us all a huge favour. :)

Merci beaucoup!

hoh! i just noticed! the Singapore gig was Muse's first gig of 2007...

Yes and i noticed that Matt used a lot of guitars on this one. My theory is he wants to test every one of em before his bigger gigs in Aus and ehem, KL? heh heh. But he's always changing guitars for almost every song anyway so I might just be fullo hot air.

[vspirit]

sure thing. no worries at all. you guys have got a budget to speak of?

and yeah...ever noticed bellamy changes his guitars during his band's performance set as often as madonna does hers with outfits? xxD but since his has a technical reasoning behind it...

really tho...does he actually need to change them so often? xxD

[noisemonkie]

matt brought to singapore a new manson guitar. a silver delorean manson with no internal effects.

[Nutcracker]

sure thing. no worries at all. you guys have got a budget to speak of?

and yeah...ever noticed bellamy changes his guitars during his band's performance set as often as madonna does hers with outfits? xxD but since his has a technical reasoning behind it...

really tho...does he actually need to change them so often? xxD

I think maybe SGD$50 for accomodation? I hope to stick within a budget of $200 for the whole trip inc. tickets for myself, if it's possible.

Weird how Madonna has to change clothes. Maybe she don't like to continue wearing clothes that she had sweat in. :D

[vspirit]

well if you're getting rockzone tix, they'll cost around RM110 so half that and i guess it's about SGD45 or so...hmm don't think it'll be too much of a prob. but i'll need to go look for a place that'll accomodate for RM100 a nite. actually, that sounds pretty good to work with. there should be decent places available around that price range. i'll look around, no worries ^_~

and yeah, noisemonkie, we're quite aware of that already. thanks for the thought of bringing it to our attention tho ^^

[Nutcracker]

Thanks again in advance! It is nice to be able to watch them again.
I was a little disappointed he didn't use his Bomber Manson. I think of all it still looks the neatest. I wonder why his new silver one has no internal effects?

[vspirit]

...cos the rest of them do? i think it's nice he has one stripped-down-to-almost-bare-essentials one. this way, less people can accuse him of being all dependant on fuzzy logic and effects...

...tho i don't think he actually had it built with that exact purpose in mind...

[mynameisdebbie]

umm.... anyone know where exactly Stadium Negara is? is it in KL or what? is there any way a 16 year old like me and my bunch of friends can go there via public transport? :)

[ibelieveinmuse]

shame on me dont know where is exactly stadium negara but ironically mention it almost everyday...but all i know about that place is if u wanna reach there via lrt(or star i didnt know)is to stop at hang tuah station...;) dont laugh at me if i'm giving wrong direction but this is all i can do to help at this moment,maybe i could ask my collegue afterwards as he is going to drive us for the concert...:D

[vspirit]

or the maharajalela monorail stn cos works fine as well. it's the one nearest to petaling street.

...i fink.

[Nutcracker]

If you guys don't know where it is, what about me? heh heh.. But i'm sure it won't be too hard to get to, i hope.. The other time i was in KL i took the monorail and it felt like a theme park ride. I swear the monorail's window was almost parallel to the ground below when it made a turn. So stadium negara is on petaling street?

edit: If you guys haven't checked out the gallery of the fort canning gig, go now. Pro photos.

http://soft.com.sg/web/modules.php?set_albumName=album78&op=modload&name=Gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php

[vspirit]

it's not on petaling street per se. just near it. it's still a main road away, up a hill, pass Stadium Merdeka on the right, and you'll see it to your left (unless you're coming from the opposite direction, in which case it's the, well, opposite). either way, if you find yourself in the petaling st. area, you're near enough that you prolly can't go wrong.

[jerrysoon]

maybe getting a KL map will help?

this page has a very detailed info about stadium negara
http://my.pagenation.com/kul/Stadium%20Negara_101.7026_3.141.map

[jackson_asdf]

hey i was wondering if there's a gathering here?? i don't wanna get suffocate there.. maybe we could gather and help each other up in the moshpit.. this is my first ever gig in my life and i don't wanna get suffocated.. ;)

btw izzit safe to bring a digi-camera there? i alwayz wanted to take their photos

[jerrysoon]

sorry guys, didn't make my message clear in my first post! i went to singapore to attend their concert. it was a bummer coz i bought my ticket before they announced the malaysian concert.

anyway, will go for malaysian concert again. haven't buy my ticket tho!

yeah, i think it's a great idea for us to meet up together. good time to make new friends that like muse too.

any suggestions on the gathering? if the singaporean friends are coming down a day before, then maybe we can meet up and show them where the stadium is? a quick tour around that area and some chit chat.

btw, Impiana Hotel is the closest to stadium negara and it's next to Puduraya. so if you guys are taking a bus down from singapore, it's the most convenient spot.

[vspirit]

^how much are the rates? i don't think a lot of them are looking for something overly lavish. they are after all, MUSE fans, not IL DIVO's. xxDD no...not implying that MUSE fans are a bunch cheapskates (i am, after all, one myself but i'll be the first to admit i can be rather cheapskate when i wanna be...but it has nothing to do with MUSE, i promise) but their age ratio, compared to IL DIVO's, are rather much, noticeably so, even, younger and have a tighter budget constraint, i would imagine. i think a budget hotel will more than suffice. still running google for 'em as we speak. speaking of which, crazy, i couldn't find anything about that mandarin whatever hotel you mentioned near the area except for this one (http://www.journeymalaysia.com/cityklmandarin.htm) and it looks kinda OTB (over-the- budget) to me...

and as for the gathering...well, if you guys are serious about it, 23 or 24 Feb both sound about fine to me. i'd slap in a time and venue as well but it's really not for a single person to decide so why don't we work something out around these two dates? anyone who can make it are welcomed to join and help come out with defense strategies (xxxD) and anyone who can't--join, that is--well, we'll see you on the 25th...something like that?

[crazy_mary]

i cant beleive that u guys dunno where stad negara is.. its right in d middle of the town. maharajalela monorail stop will b right in front of std merdeka so u haf to walk a bit ( which is not far really) n from hang tuah station, u haf to cross road, pass by Victoria Institution n dang wangi police station.. u'll never be lost around dat area.. if u do, hey there's a police station, mayb they'll escort u ;)

no, vspirit, its not mandarin court hotel. its KL Mandarin hotel. i've found some info.. last time i was there, a standard room is comfortable enuff for 3 or 4 person..

its just rite infornt of petaling street's mcdonalds, very near d stadium..dunno whether its d nearest tho..

meeting up b would nice u noe.. we should get together at d stadium if its too difficult to arrange an earlier meeting.

[vspirit]

hey, i have the very same red one, you saw it yourself...er that is, i posted a pic. and the rest can be gotten via the muse.mu merch store...only more expensive since everything's in freakin pounds.

/huffs

[mynameisdebbie]

i say we meet before hand and get to know each other as well as the stadium. like knowing where is entrance A, B and C... and which entrance Muse is entering from.. :p oh you know. necessary stuff like that :LOL:

and also, with this, we could help each other out during the gig or before the gig when there's pushing and stuff going on.

damn it i want those Muse shirts! anyone know where to get Muse shirts nearby? or any t-shirt making shops nearby?

EDIT

HOHH! I HAVE SOLVED THE MYSTERY!!!

http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o156/Kuutar4/Dom/D200701175951.jpg

Dom was wearing black pants and was siting on a pink chair at the singapore gig. :D you were sorta right after all, vspirit :)

what's wrong with short sleeves? :S umm.. where is pertama complex?? lol!

and yeah i saw the ad for the mtv pop inc thing.. but what time is the incubus live at red socks thing tonight? my friend told me about it but i completely forgot... ehhe. :$

and thanks :D lol i wish he'd wear one of his multi coloured pants to the kl gig!

[vspirit]

oh wow, congrats for solving the mystery, deb. you can sleep better now. ^_^

and like i said, i'm game for any one of those two dates i mentioned. it's all up to the rest of you now.

[crazy_mary]

pertama complex is just next to sogo.. near jalan tuanku abdul rahman.. short sleeves shirts leave my ugly hands (or is it arms..?) uncovered, dat's why i dont like 'em..

incubus at red rocks, channel v tonite...at 9pm i guess..

my wishlist for d concert:
1. mat will throw his guitar to me!!:D
2. dom wearing his pink pants
3. mat wearing his long coat (doubful.. since its gonna be very steamy..)
4. them playing citizen erased and hodooo..

will add more eventually..

1. then you'll be the one getting a tetanus jab up your butt cheek. pls refer to one Mr. Dominic Howard for further advice. (there's also a clip of that unfortunate event, btw. at the very end of the US version of the TIRO vid...which can be found in the vid clips section of microcuts.net)

2. nothing to say about that tho i think wearing bermudas would be a better and more comfortable choice.

3. hey, if that nutter wore a long coat during the dry heat of the australian summer, your wish could just be granted, yet.

4. for reasons undisclosed, i share that same fervent hope. and then some.

[crazy_mary]

1. :LOL: so be it.. as long as i can get one of his expensive guitars..

2. matt would look hot in bermudas.. and so will dom, perhaps pink bermudas for him..eheh

3. i noe! i saw d pix..hoping that at least he'll be wearing his terror storm shirt.. i dun like his shirt at d spore gig..

4. unintended i assume? or uno or showbiz or.. d list go on..

[mynameisdebbie]

lol wishlist -

1. dom to wear cropped pants OR multi-coloured pants. mm.. yum yum :)

2. muse to play showbiz! and maybe muscle museum.

3. matt will trash the stage and accidentally murder one of his manson guitars and chris puts his bass guitar through Dom's drumset (like Glasto) cause they're so high on adrenaline and the crowd was so awesome :D ehehheh.

4. more random witty banter from matt, dom, AND chris!

5. i come home alive with no broken bones.

[crazy_mary]

4. witty banter in malay i hope :D

5. dat n feeling like i just had witnessed d greatest show ever..

[vspirit]

4. witty banter in malay i hope :D

i already have an inkling how that would come out sounding like and believe me, it'll just sound like english to you until later, when you rewind it in your head and realize it really wasn't.

[crazy_mary]

i already have an inkling how that would come out sounding like and believe me, it'll just sound like english to you until later, when you rewind it in your head and realize it really wasn't.

imagine if matt tries to say 'malaysia boleh!'..:D chester did a good job at it tho a while back..

[vspirit]

haha he said that? nice of em to know of that tagline...embarrassing tho it may be. xxD i can kinda imagine how bellamy, at least, will pronounce 'terima kasih' but i also have a feeling that if howard were to say it, it probably wouldn't sound half-bad; enough for the crowd to recognize the word for what it really is, anyway. xD

[crazy_mary]

indeed, he did. it was quite embarassing really.. dunno who thought him that phrase.. but he made us to shout 'boleh!' while repeating 'malaysia..?' a few times ..;) i dont think i can imagine any one from muse would do that.. didnt dom or matt or chris use any chinese or - dunno what's sporean's national lang is.. - during their gig in fort canning? omg incubus...

[vspirit]

uh not that i noticed. i didn't exactly catch every phrase they uttered cos i was a little...off...but if they did, i think my subconscious would've picked up on it and no, it isn't ringing any bells either.

[Tired.Unhappy]

umm.... anyone know where exactly Stadium Negara is? is it in KL or what? is there any way a 16 year old like me and my bunch of friends can go there via public transport? :)

you can take START LRT or monorail to hang tuah station and you can walk from there...

[Tired.Unhappy]

^how much are the rates? i don't think a lot of them are looking for something overly lavish. they are after all, MUSE fans, not IL DIVO's. xxDD no...not implying that MUSE fans are a bunch cheapskates (i am, after all, one myself but i'll be the first to admit i can be rather cheapskate when i wanna be...but it has nothing to do with MUSE, i promise) but their age ratio, compared to IL DIVO's, are rather much, noticeably so, even, younger and have a tighter budget constraint, i would imagine. i think a budget hotel will more than suffice. still running google for 'em as we speak. speaking of which, crazy, i couldn't find anything about that mandarin whatever hotel you mentioned near the area except for this one (http://www.journeymalaysia.com/cityklmandarin.htm) and it looks kinda OTB (over-the- budget) to me...

and as for the gathering...well, if you guys are serious about it, 23 or 24 Feb both sound about fine to me. i'd slap in a time and venue as well but it's really not for a single person to decide so why don't we work something out around these two dates? anyone who can make it are welcomed to join and help come out with defense strategies (xxxD) and anyone who can't--join, that is--well, we'll see you on the 25th...something like that?

there are a lot of budget hotels around bukit bintang area...it's more happening there

[Tired.Unhappy]

since you guys are hardcore fans...why don't you plan to meet/stalk them during the soundcheck...they must do the soundcheck right probably in the afternoon on the day of the concert or something
oh i think they will stay in traders hotel near KLCC since the hotel is one of the sponsors

[vspirit]

...i don't really consider myself a hardcore...i'm more a fan of their music rather than the band themselves (and after their negligence towards the crowd in s'pore, they can go $#%$& themselves but their music...it's innocent so yeah i'll continue supporting them cos of it xP ---OK no i'm being not entirely serious but i am still more of a fan of their music rather than them...always have been...i'm this way with all the bands i like anyway but and i /am/ a lil pissed off at MUSE). and stalking's a bit much, isn't it? but hey, kudos to those of you who are going through with it and have great fun if you really get to meet em. don't forget to let them know to take more notice of what's going on in the crowd when onstage and say something, /anything/, when they notice something amiss.

but soundchecks...they're done within the venue itself, aren't they? and no way they're gonna open the gates before at least an hour before showtime. hotel near KLCC? you talking about Mandarin Oriental? *whistles* pricey, classy place, that.

[Nutcracker]

You know Muse did their first soundcheck for Fort Canning on the 15th evening, the night before the gig. My bro was there and he called me while i was at work to let me listen to Matt jamming on his piano and later on doin almost full songs of Stockholm, MOTP and even Fury although they din play that for the actual gig :mad: . They also soundchecked on the afternoon of the gig day and we could hear it from where we were sitting outside the stage area. They also did a little bit of TAB which didn't make it to the setlist :mad: :mad: . So you guys should try to meet up outside the stadium. I'm sure you can hear previews of bits and muffled sounds which should be enough to give you goosebumps. \

I wonder what will Matt scream for the part before the rock-out part in KOC, you know where he screamed, "come on, singapore!!" at fort canning. Will it be like, "come on, malaysia!" or "come on Kualer lumpuur!" (a bit of a mouthful).

[vspirit]

lol well if the meetup mentioned earlier actually happens, and happens on the 24th, maybe we can make a stopover at the venue and see if there's any sound emitting from within. xxD

[Bakumatsu]

ive found this Muse ad concert from The Sun (small) paper yesterday, and it says that NON-MUSLIMS AND 18 YEARS OLD OLDER are only permitted to this concert, wtf is that supposed to mean? alcoholic party muse concert?

[mynameisdebbie]

if they're gonna check our ICs, i swear i'm gonna cry. :(

EDIT

oh, right i wanted to let you guys know there that ARE ways to get Backstage VIP passes... i just dunno how. a friend of a friend of a friend of mine got em, and he/she's not planning to sell it at all. *emo*

and i wont really STALK them.. thats a bit too extreme. sure, i'd like to bump into them on Petaling Street or soemthing, but i wont stalk them and hide behind bushes and pillars and stuff. thats just way too extreme.

[Nutcracker]

Crazy_mary did mention that there's no such 'claus' on your tix rite? There's no way then, that they can disallow people from any age from entering. Even the event organiser's webbie don't state anything like that rite..

[crazy_mary]

am looking at d tix again now..no mention of such thing but it did mentioned dat they haf d right to refuse admission to any person (venue owner tho not d promoter).. hmm.. shud i b worried?? i'm sure there'll b a riot (perhaps started by myself ;)) on d 25th feb if muslims or those who r under 18 r not allowed in.. coz there were loads of us at sg wang ... if there is alcohol at d concert, hope nobody will get drunk n behave like idiots at the concert..kinda wish that there wont b any, but tiger is d sponsor, so..

damn i wish i could haf those backstage passes.. come to think of it, i wouldnt noe wat to say to them if i do haf a chance of meeting 'em.. starsturck with jelly legs and trembled hands.. i would look like a fool..but d idea of stalking 'em is kinda interesting :LOL:

EDIT: btw.. do u think they'll b doing their sound check on saturday (d day b4 their gig) ? coz i think dat they'll only be arriving here on saturday coz they haf a gig in jakarta on 23rd. meeting up on d 24th is a great idea really just to survey d area..

[jerrysoon]

whoa, you guys 24/7 on the board la!

btw, do plan up early for the gathering. maybe we can post some suggestions on the location meet up?

location suggestion for gathering:
01. stadium negara itself
02. petaling street coffee bean

[vspirit]

02 looks good to me. i can smell it even...

and i seriously don't doubt the restrictions are just there for show. galaxy, the /major/ organizer, has firmly said there aren't any. they're probably the ones responsible for handling all the red tape. i imagine tigermusic's role in being joint organizer is to advertise, promote and generally spread the word. and like someone else has said, since tigermusic's the one handling all the publicity, they probably had little choice but to put that restriction notice there to throw authorities off their back. no doubt the 'event' in question is merely the buying of beer from the stand located in some corner. i wouldn't worry overly much if i were you.

[Bakumatsu]

Did anyone watch BlastOff last saturday??? a band call Coda did Muse cover songs, they played Starlight and Plug In Baby, i just got this info after i read the Malay Mail just now and they only mention it was not loud but memorable, if anyone has the RECORDING OF IT, plz UPLOAD!!! i really wanna see how they pulled off Muse songs in front of the Malaysian crowd..

oh cool maybe there might be a repeat!
arrggh u guys are making me excited!!!

[ibelieveinmuse]

gah..they wont sound good covering muse i reckon..even 1st runner up(blastoff season 1)media puppet did cover tiro and they spoiled the song btw, i thought it was cool to see some local band did cover muse song but it all ended with the same result...they cant make it sounds good enough as they cover other bands songs(this is due to making effects that they arent good at i reckon)however in this cases those bands who did cover muse will get my vote as they appreciate what we called good music...heheh..;)

[Snakehead]

damn it man, The Pitt's tics are long gone and The Rock Zone has 70 tics left!

My friends are looking for the Pitt's tics so anyone selling here???
But the stadium aint that big, Rock Zone is that far from the stage right??
RM113 tics are good enough for me *muakz tics*:D

Lets post what songs they're gonna sing!

Let's sing along now...:cool:

* * * * *(Starlight)* * * * *
...But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations

well it seems uv misjudged them, they pulled it off quite well and unexpectedly impressed all the judges, heres the review i read, theyr the only band got 5/5 rating, cool isnt it...

Stage 3



Last week, Brian Vinesh thought that their performance so far has been average, but been impressed with the band playing. Apparently, Brian has also said that this band has so far not picked the right songs to perform throughout the show. This week, CODA performed an outstanding show by actually playing each other guitar, 3 in a row. Dedicating to their family and friends, 'Starlight' and dedicating this song to Bunkface and United Kids of Oi! 'Plug In Baby' by Muse.



Brian Vinesh: Sat here for 4-5 weeks, and it's the first performance that

indeed wanted to clap for them

Good job on all the Muse songs

Very good performance, very impressive as Brian is a fan of

Muse

If 'Plug In Baby' was performed wildly, would have given all

the votes



Joe Flizzow: Very impressed

Very good show and good set

Very confident on stage

Good vocals and very good show



Out of 5 stars: 5/5

[crazy_mary]

damn it man, The Pitt's tics are long gone and The Rock Zone has 70 tics left!

omg are you serious??? oh nooo!!! i need to buy a few more pitt tickets for my other friends now!

is there anyone here selling The Pitt tickets? PLEASE???

EDIT

wow.. i cant believe it really is sold out.

i'm so ambivalent now! i dunno whether to feel happy that Muse are doing so well here or bummed that i wont be able to get tickets for my other friends who want to go... :(

and you're right, suddenly my Pitt tickets seems to precious... lol :LOL:

[vspirit]

70 rockzone tix left? w00t, i hope those sell out quick, too...no wait...i hope they sell out /after/ Nutz and his bro and his bunch of frens have gotten theirs. You guys had better hurry if you don't wanna have to settle for seated tix.

in fact, i hope everything sells out by by CNY...

Yea you're damn lucky to have it man... u better run in 1st with the tic b4 u loose it while bragging it outside the da stadium man. I went to the Putra Stadium to get those tics, the lady told me Muse giler hebat.

I was like " Wa, aku tak sangka Muse kat Malaysia band scene kuat". :pope:

She say " Muse hebat man, tapi kebanyakan yang pegi tu Malay boys, masa Jan 7th kat Sg Wang tu, 1k+ ppl pegi sana beli ticket cos 30% off, hampir habis...":cool:

Me again "Bagus la, kalau Msia bawak band cam nih byk lagi bagus... my friends who wanted those Pitt tics would fly over from Sarawak for them..."
:musesign:

One of my friend say that this kinda indie, alt etc music scene still do not appeal much to alota chinese peeps, its even harder to open up their mind to indulge and enjoy this kinda genre. (He and I are cinapeks going to muse OH HELL YEAH! :musesign: )
What you guys think?

[Snakehead]

70 rockzone tix left? w00t, i hope those sell out quick, too...no wait...i hope they sell out /after/ Nutz and his bro and his bunch of frens have gotten theirs. You guys had better hurry if you don't wanna have to settle for seated tix.

in fact, i hope everything sells out by by CNY...

Oh yea, she say " I rasa 2 hari lagi semua ROCK ZONE ticket habis..." :eek:

[vspirit]

:eek: indeed.

there /are/ chinese fans...i saw quite a lot of em...but most chinese who listen to them are prollly bananas...if ya know what i mean...and i've always had the impression that malay rock fans seem partial to britrock and indie stuff so yeah, there were a substantial amount of youngish malays that day. i heard, tho not in so many words, that a lot of them (the young ones) aren't the politest of people and that even if you're a tiny weak sickly girl standing at about 4 feet in height, and one of them can easily triple you in mass and body weight, will still gladly step on your face to get to the front.

this doesn't bode very well for some of us...i'm not vain by any means but i still love my face for the biological and physical convenience it allows me. granted i'm neither sickly nor weak, and neither am i a 4-footer, i'm not very substantial in size at all...someone bellamy's size will break into tiny lil pieces in there...and i'm smaller than him.

that group idea is really sounding more and more like an extremely wise one...

[crazy_mary]

mostly malay boys? kinda ironic dont u think since tiger kept announcing that d gig is only for non muslim n 18 years n above? vspirit, as much as hate to say this, but i kinda agree wif u.. i dun wanna d crowd to b like rock d world crowd, where mostly r malay BOYS acting like idiots.. but i may b wrong n i dun want to accuse anyone as being violent n throwing racist remark or watever.. coz i myself a malay n there r chinese n other boys who tend to act like punks during concerts.. perhaps d key word here is BOYS rather than d race.. its kinda weird when u say its rare for chinese people to like muse since most of d peeps in this board r chinese ..(well, i always assume)

[vspirit]

lol actually every time i've been run over in an environment when the adrenaline surge is high, it's almost always a male of the young (prolly still a high-school goer or a first year college freshie) and malay variety. i never really thought much about it but thinking back on it now, i've never really had that kinda problem with males of other races...malay girls, on the other hand, are generally nicer than some from the other races that i know, my own included. so it's a race + gender thing, i reckon, tho not in the biological sense so don't get me wrong. here, let me elaborate:

i'm sure they're punks of other races but i'm willing to venture a guess that their problem all boil down to their attitudes. they prolly aren't very likeable at other times either but these malay kids, they probably are great people, so i'm not saying that they don't have hearts in all the right places, because they do. even moreso than the others but let's not go there. they do, however, in a high-energy environment, seem more prone to letting all the adrenaline go to their heads and cloud their judgment than other people of the same gender but different races. and if i have to turn analytical, i'd venture that it's the environment in which they grew up, and the people they hang with, rather than their biological makeup cos that just plain doesn't make sense, that makes them more prone to totally losing themselves. which means, i don't think that all the young malay kids of the male kind are all completely uncouth when excited. i'm aware that i may be stereotyping some but i'm also well and truly aware that it's not written in stone that as long as they're young and they're malay, they're all gonna be like that. I have met quite a few who behave in an exemplary manner...but there do seem more of the former than the latter in events like this in M'sia, based on personal experience (which i'm sure you yourself have a lot of, crazy...more than I do even, if we're talking about gigs held on local grounds). =/

in hindsight, though, most of the nice malay guys i've met in int'l concerts here were pretty stable and laidback and...they're adults. so there's no telling that when these hooligan-wannabes become full blown adults, they won't do a complete 180. sigh...or maybe i should just chalk it down to MUSE bringing out the worst in everyone. it's all their fault. bloody over-talented freaks.

and tackling that other issue you brought up, crazy, there aren't that many fans gathered in this thread to begin with, a handful only, really, if you factor in just how many turned up to buy tix on the 7th. it's just the same old people over and over again with the occasional new handles who post sporadically and then disappear altogether. that, and let's not forget that i said most chinese who like these sorta bands are bananas, meaning english is their...our...strongest mean to express ourselves in, written or spoken. the rest will go for stuff like...leehom, i guess (ironically, leehom is pretty much a banana himself but it's all about catering to the market innit xD)? whereas, like i said earlier, for malays, it doesn't matter whether or not they speak good english, they are more partial to the english rock scene (and this is totally my biasness speaking, have better taste in music) in general. so with this board and thread mainly in english, i don't think they'd feel too driven to post here. a couple tried, trying to start conversations but in malay, and well, you saw for yourself how that turned out. we answered, though in english, and they're never seen or heard from again, resulting in the only malays who remain gathered here to post regularly are ones like yourself and nuts and a few others i'm sure, who are on top of the food chain within your racial bracket when it comes to communicating in english...and, at the risk of stating the obvious, there really aren't that many of you.

[Bakumatsu]

oh my thats a long description

[Snakehead]

thats y they say Muse play intelligent music...;)

sometimes its not just them or us being partial to the rock scene eg indie, alt rock. If we really learn, analyzes, "listen" to their music as well as to how the band play as a band and their instrumental skills, and enjoy doing it at the same time,... being at the top, mid or bottom of any racial tree ( as what vspirit says) it doesnt matter anymore. I dont mind talking Malay or English or Mandarin because to me, language is just a medium of communication, the only means to create racial integration.:)

I really hope the Msian thread grows out to all races after the show, then we might get to know alota people, maybe hidden local band gems that are overshadowed by very,very commercial bands that sounds like some other. (I really like networking :D )

People in nature like to belong to something because it creates the sense of security. Who knows those who are here, may one day, after the show or future gigs, chinese, malay, indian and other races hang out? that'll be real nice man...:happy:

[crazy_mary]

phew.. that was long eh? hey.. it's all good, no matter wat colour u r.. as long as we r m'sians n we all agree that muse RAWKS! didnt mean to start a discussion bout wat our social backround r. just trying to say that rock concert tend to make some of us go wild regardless of our ethnicity.. i didnt actually quite understand parts of ur post:LOL:

EDIT: now i do..hmm shuld i say s'thin? mayb not..
btw, has anyone seen their absolution tour dvd? noe where i can get it?

[vspirit]

^^; well yanno me. once i have something i wanna say, i need to get em all outta my chest so there might be some irrelevant stuff i've mentioned in there. sorry you had to go through all that, heh heh...if you did, that is. and thank you.

and the absolution dvd is but a myth to me.

[crazy_mary]

i did actually, 3 times.. just to make sure i understood u perfectly :LOL:

[Nutcracker]

Oh c'mon! Surely you know the Absolution dvd does exist? I got mine at Gramophone in sg.. I think hmv shld have it? It's the 2004 glastonbury performance(not full setlist though) plus some extras like TOADA, the groove, fury and endlessly!!

Actually i feel that the Malay dudes in sg can be quite energetic during small gigs too. If you happen to attend an 'emo-core' or whatever 'core' nonsense gig there is, the mosh is usually made up of Malay dudes. Occasionally you can see one or two girls in it (almost always Malays too). Strange aint it.

[Skylar]

Woah! The band haven't even played and look at all these pages. It's even more than the Singapore thread :p And the sold out pit tickets? Totally Wow! It's great to see there's so many Malaysian fans. Memang Malaysia boleh ;) I hope everything goes well for you guys. Wish I could be there.

[mynameisdebbie]

the absolution tour dvd DOES exist! i'm having my friend's one right now.. he bought it from a pasar malam. lol. he also borrowed me his Incubus live in Red Rocks one which he bought from a pasar malam too. its amazing, what you can find in your regular pasar malam. however, the absolution dvd he got doesnt have TOADA and stuff..but it does have the ending Stockholm Syndrome though. which is really awesome :)

lol Skylar, this thread has been going on since even before Muse announced their gig at Singapore, nevermind Malaysia! lol :LOL:

oh yeah i wanted to ask you a question, vspirit. did Matt sing "our trials and tribulations" in Starlight at Singapore? or did he sing the normal "our hopes and expectations"??

[vspirit]

i know it exists. i've just never seen it before. tho it probably shouldn't come as a surprise cos i'm kind of a slacker and don't really /look/ for things...even things i tell myself i want badly. *chuckle*

right, your question. if i was out of it enough to completely miss MoTP and Bliss (even while i was just standing there and watching the balloons being popped one after another), what makes you think I'd be paying attention to what he's actually singing? xP i was so far removed, i prolly still would've completely missed it if he sang the whole thing in Hokkien.

so i cheated and checked youtube ahahaha. bet you never thought of doing /that/, huh? xxxD er...ignore that last bit. anyway that's what i did, and the answer is....nope. followed the album version to a T. well almost to a T, but you get what i mean...right?

[jono]

Hey, i just got my tickets today
When i bought mine at 10:00 this morning from lot 10, there were only 24 left for the rock zone.. pretty crazy. Its gonna be packed there.
I'm just hoping that there will be a good opening band, because the last concert i went to (INXS in August last year at same venue), the opening band was so bad they got kicked off. How many people can Stadium Negara hold?

[Skylar]

Hehe, well, I'm thinking of getting my tickets tomorrow. So, The Pitt has sold out. If the Rockzone's no more, I don't think I'll be going anymore.

[vspirit]

yanno, skylar...i finally took a good look at your avatar. not only that, i even took the time to try to make out what is it all about exactly. and i'm sorry for it now.

[Mewse-ic]

does anyone have extra tickets for the pitt?
kthx

[vspirit]

...bai. you left out the 'bai'.

[kru3l]

I have one extra Rock Zone ticket left. Do contact me at kru3l.muse@gmail.com if interested.

If you happen to attend an 'emo-core' or whatever 'core' nonsense gig there is, the mosh is usually made up of Malay dudes. Occasionally you can see one or two girls in it (almost always Malays too). Strange aint it.

were there indians in sg gig as well? i find it pretty rare that indians fancy rock music.

[Snakehead]

sobs... ill be missing muse...
ill be reaching on 25th from Australia, 10pm but i think itll be midnight...
i know its too good to be true...
dammit....

[crazy_mary]

dude, if ur in oz mite as well watch 'em there if u cant make it to KL gig.. they're in oz for like two months. it would be nice if they play more than one nite in m'sia.. perhaps after KL they'd go to kelantan (PAS people would go crazy) n then kuching then penang.. i would follow 'em in a heart beat..

which pasar malam is that deb coz i sure cant find it in tower records or other music stores. it will make me feel less guilty to buy d cetak rompak copy since the original is not available..

[crazy_mary]

Hey, i just got my tickets today
When i bought mine at 10:00 this morning from lot 10, there were only 24 left for the rock zone.. pretty crazy. Its gonna be packed there.
I'm just hoping that there will be a good opening band, because the last concert i went to (INXS in August last year at same venue), the opening band was so bad they got kicked off. How many people can Stadium Negara hold?

who opened for INXS? tough crowd to please then inxs fans. i wouldnt want to demand any band to get of the stage especially if it's a local band no matter how bad they r..i noticed that the seating plan for inx's gig is similar to muse's upcoming gig..did u get their pitt tix?

[guilt-stricken]

i dun wanna d crowd to b like rock d world crowd, where mostly r malay BOYS acting like idiots.. but i may b wrong n i dun want to accuse anyone as being violent n throwing racist remark or watever.. coz i myself a malay n there r chinese n other boys who tend to act like punks during concerts.. perhaps d key word here is BOYS rather than d race.. its kinda weird when u say its rare for chinese people to like muse since most of d peeps in this board r chinese ..(well, i always assume)
Rock the World crowd is certainly craaazy. But I do agree with your earlier post stating that they're mostly school kids with a LOT of energy. I sure hope the crowd in the Muse concert will never be a repeat of RTW, if yes, then I need to find a group to stand together with. Pronto. I for one, and I'm sure many of us here too, love going to concerts mainly because of the music, and not just for the purpose of trashing other ppl in the event of rocking out to the music. It's fine that you're rocking out, but please, please do not get other people involved or injured.

As for the more bananas loving Muse comment, I cannot agree more with you. Lol. I'm actually thrown in a crowd of mandarin speaking people in college, and when you ask who's going to Muse, they'll all look at me and go ?!?????. But if you ask them about the LeeHom concert, oh well, I guess you guys know the answer to that. I suppose it's the same when they ask us about chinese bands and that we hardly know anything about them, I think it's just the different culture and way that we're all being brought up.

But ultimately however, I think all of us are there and we're all connected in one way or another for one reason. That we're there for the purpose of great rockin' Muse music. ;)

Let the countdown begin. 29 more days til we see Muse!

[vspirit]

dude, if ur in oz mite as well watch 'em there if u cant make it to KL gig.. they're in oz for like two months. it would be nice if they play more than one nite in m'sia.. perhaps after KL they'd go to kelantan (PAS people would go crazy) n then kuching then penang.. i would follow 'em in a heart beat..

have i ever told you how much i love your sense of humor? if the answer's no, well, then, i do.

hey there, guilt-stricken. going as a group doth sound pretty amazingly good, doth it not?

[mynameisdebbie]

i say we go in a huge group... :yesey:

[ibelieveinmuse]

oh my...is that true bout absolution dvd thing?i mean u could easily get it at night market?which night market then?shame on me for not having it altough it's pirated...before this i have a doubt of owning pirated muse cd's or cassetes or dvd's as i thought not much people here would buy the 10x more expensive than what they would get for the pirated ones..so,my collections were all original(except for a cd that includes HOTRS,CTMEOU and those rare tracks that i coulnt resist)..
but after BHAR was released i noticed that muse were becoming more mainstream and no doubt that those albums were sold well here so i dont have that "too worried that muse would starve if i dont buy those original albums"..how pathetic i could be if it comes to muse...

back to that dvd thing i reckon that i've seen most of the footage at the earls court but i'm dying to own that dvd so i could play it again and again(that happens to my hullabaloo dvd and now its running slower than usual if i played it in my laptop)

so please people...do help me by giving some info..;)

[guilt-stricken]

i say we go in a huge group... :yesey:
I concur :yesey:

Only problem is, I believe the majority of you here will be in the Pitt, whereas I only bought the Rock Zone tix. :$ :(

[7ty6]

MUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've waited years for Radiohead, never will be here .. Coldplay!! just missed out in Singapore.. but MUSE IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what are the chances of them playing ESCAPE here in Malaysia??

i'll be satisfied if they play any of this..
muscle museum any version.. or maybe a different take!

Well the band was called Single Track Mind... and the music wasnt that bad, but it was a bit Emo and INXS doesnt really mix in well with Emo bands. And on top of that the lead singer was disgraceful, never on pitch or anything. There were a lot of Australians there too... at Muse me and my friends will probably be the only ones...

And the tickets for the Pitt were RM382 which as a student i could never afford.... so we got Rock Zone tickets... which is the same as what we for Muse. But the seating plan was exactly the same.

[zy3038]

my exams are finally over n i can start looking forward to 25th feb!!

never thought i would live to see them perform in m'sia..nvr thought they would release a song tht sounds lyk britney too so wth.

hope they play more songs from their old albums though..i noe its supposed to be a BHAR tour but they HAVE GOTTA PLAY CITIZEN ERASED, MICROCUTS and hopefully my personal fav..HYPER MUSIC!

cant wait cant wait cant wait cant wait cant wait..

[Nutcracker]

were there indians in sg gig as well? i find it pretty rare that indians fancy rock music.

Yeah you can see them, although like you said they're a rare breed in rock gigs. But i do know a local punk rock band that has an indian dude as a drummer. He's pretty good.

And i have bought me rockzone tickets!! I think the ticket looks much better than sg's, prolly cuz they printed a nice picture on it, and it has a nice shiny sticker at the side, eh? Can't wait to see all you dudes and dudettes too!

[noisemonkie]

yikesssss!! rock zone tickets sold out!!

[Nutcracker]

Woah that means we're gona have 2000 musers in the rockzone...

[vspirit]

^^^ very nice. really looking forward to meeting up with you, then. so is it just you alone? got your bus tickets already?

and yanno, it's entirely quite possible that you're the one who snapped the last of it up...sure took a while to sell out but sell out it did. and given that this is malaysia we're talking about, that word being used at all is an amazing feat in itself.

(hoping one of the numbered or free seating ones will be the next to go, then)

p/s: you've heard me say it before but i'll say it again: winning avie =PP

[noisemonkie]

Woah that means we're gona have 2000 musers in the rockzone...

and I haven't got my tix yet! padan muka myself...then have to resort to RM83 free seating tix. bummer! :(

[zy3038]

and I haven't got my tix yet! padan muka myself...then have to resort to RM83 free seating tix. bummer! :(

what are u waiting for??
get those tix quick before even those sell out!!
heh, kinda unlikely though..

2000 in the rockzone..plus the sold out pitt, that makes at least how many tix sold aredi?

[zy3038]

Yeah you can see them, although like you said they're a rare breed in rock gigs. But i do know a local punk rock band that has an indian dude as a drummer. He's pretty good.

the drummer in my band's indian too..he listens to rock..but he also likes 50 cents!:eek:

anyone with concert experience at stadium negara? how's the view from the seating area?

how i wish it's like bukit kiara. the terrain at fort canning's the best! period!

[crazy_mary]

hey, 7ty6 good to noe that one of my pix is meaningful to someone. u even posted it better than i did.. :$ i have also been waiting for radiohead n pearl jam or even greenday to come here but that would be over reaching isnt it?

am actually nervous but happy to hear that those tix r selling like goreng pisang panas..cant really imagine wat d crowd condition will be like..

so.. about going as a group thingy that we've discussed earlier, here r d list of people who agreed that we shud go in group for safety n reinforcement purposes..

did anyone listen to hitz.fm? i heard something about muse give away just now.. didnt actually catch what it was about really..

and jono, since ur d only person here who had been to a concert at std negara.. how was it like?

[vspirit]

how i wish it's like bukit kiara. the terrain at fort canning's the best! period!
no. just...no.

and hey, don't ignore me! i've been to stadium negara!! only i was 8 and was there for Disney on ice...

[noisemonkie]

no. just...no.

and hey, don't ignore me! i've been to stadium negara!! only i was 8 and was there for Disney on ice...

'no' for bukit kiara or fort canning? well, if your in the middle of the pitt at fort canning it's a 'no' with all the pushing and shoving, but my vote goes for the unobstructed view. and yeah...it's because of the terrain.

just curious here...how far is the stage from the seating areas? haiyaaaaa...boleh sold out lah pulak! was not expecting it to be so soon. :(

[crazy_mary]

and hey, don't ignore me! i've been to stadium negara!! only i was 8 and was there for Disney on ice...

lol, does that count? coz i've been there to watch eric cantona when he was here.. we're talking about concerts here.. there, there *pats on ur back*

noisemonkie, if u wait some more then u might end up only wif d RM50 free seating tix;)
n no to bkt kiara as well, bleh..

[vspirit]

i'd say both but i don't really have grounds to diss kiara cos i've never attended a concert there before. i have been there for the starlight cinema thingy (pun unintended...er this one wasn't intended either...-.-;; REALLY) and all i could remember from the experience was hearing the mosquitoes shouting "free food!! free fooood!!!" in glee all night, and the overwhelming stench of horse manure. so powerful it was that i kept superimposing the head of a horse onto johnny depp's shoulders, mocking me throughout the night. crazy didn't exactly have a blissful experience each time she went there either, or at least that one time i know for sure she did, but that was more due to the unethical and overzealous young crowd rather than the terrain itself.

FC...what can i say about it. i've actually already said my fill, which i'm sure you've noticed, so i don't think i should repeat myself. and should you have read the singapore gig thread then you'd realize that the slopey terrain wasn't exactly conducive to the experience at all. i believe it was mentioned that it's great in theory but phailed big time in practice because the organizers hadn't taken the crowd's overenthusiam into consideration when deciding upon the venue. i also wouldn't entirely blame the organizers either for being overwhelmed (cos it's not something they'd expect based on past concert organizing experience) and i'm sure they know better now, that is to prepare for the worst no matter how docile you think the crowd will be. taking things for granted will only lead to grievous consequences.

you're half right tho. it's not really fair to blame the venue when it works fine at other times. there were a lot of other factors involved that night and the terrain just didn't help matters much, if any at all, that's all. so forgive me if i don't completely agree with your opinion.

[zy3038]

no. just...no.

and hey, don't ignore me! i've been to stadium negara!! only i was 8 and was there for Disney on ice...

lol...how did they get ice into stadium negara??

crazy_mary..i want protection too!! heheh...me and probly around 5 of my frens..count us in =p

[vspirit]

^ iunno. my 8 year-old mind was asking the very same thing.

and you guys do know that if we were to agree to go as a group, it'd be imperative that we all meet there on the day at around the same time, so as not to step on anyone's toes by jumping queue. and i think i'll be going pretty early. as in sun has just risen over the horizon early. so if you can agree to that, we can make a date of it. otherwise, we could probably form two groups. one earlier, one later.

[noisemonkie]

no biggie :)

maybe having a gig at slopey terrain is not a good idea after all. can't imagine the crowd of the slipknot gig. as for slayer at least it was held in an indoor arena. no slopey terrain.

well, i'm not really sure about the open area of bukit kiara, where the starlight cinema was held. never experience any concert there. been to bukit kiara once...the bukit kiara indoor arena when incubus was in town. one of my best concert experience. the worst is kl tower...dewa19 gig. stadium merdeka was ok...melawati shah alam indoor was ok...not sure about stadium negara..hmm *wonder* *wonder*

rm83 tix..la..la..la..do i have a choice? a big NO! ;)

[crazy_mary]

the more the merrier zy3038..so no earlier meet up? been thinking of perfect venues for it on the 24th: KLIA arrival hall or traders hotel :p * me, as a stalker*

EDIT: yeah, incubus was awesome but d crowd at d front stage.. maniacs!!

[vspirit]

yes earlier meetup. no airports or hotels. >=( nice try.

[livinadeadlife]

hey.. i'm kinda new here..

Yeah well at INXS, I was in the rock zone, but some of my friends parents got seating and they said it was great too. It's a fairly small venue compared to my experiences in Australia (i only been here for 2 years). I'd say only hold about 5,000. So basically you'll be able to see them easily from anywhere in the complex. When i went to see blink-182 in canberra, i could only get sitting tickets way up the back and you could still see them easily... Only thing is that sitting isnt quite so fun. But get tickets quickly this'll be sold out way soon

[Blisz]

Dude i need those two tickets...i want i want...lemme know if you're goin to sell it! the sooner the better! :)

[vspirit]

Hey there, all.

Just thought I'd drop this here to get the ball rolling once and for all.

So meetup, meetup.

Date: February 24, 2007
Day: Saturday
Time: 1300hrs
Venue: Bukit Bintang McDonald's

Those who can make it, please include a "w00t!MUSE (http://board.muse.mu/showpost.php?p=2612934&postcount=719)" in your message and make it orange and bold, and link it back to this post like I did.

All are welcome. Even if you aren't there to form a mosher-defense group with us, or heck, even if you aren't going to the concert at all. The only requirement needed is that you're a fan of their music. Hmm...come to think of it now, antifans (in the context of antiheroes, not the literal translation) are welcome, too, I suppose. What? You have to admit it'll make things interesting...no fistfights, though, cos none of us can afford to be warded or injured in lieu of the following day's event.

As for an identifier of sorts...well, I've been thinking *real* hard on it--gears being rusty from disuse and all--and placing something on the table seemed like a fairly brilliant idea to me. A sign of sorts, ya know? *beams* As to what the sign will say I have yet to work out but I'll come out with something, I'm sure. Suggestions are welcome, too, but nothing too directly MUSE related, k? I wanna something quirky...

I'm not much of an organizer (I usually leave the dirty work to others) but I figured I'll make an exception and get off my lazy arse for this one for the sake of not being moshed to death, after nearly having been. After this, if there are any slacking duties, please leave 'em to me! *salutes*

[Snakehead]

Snakehead...

Dude i need those two tickets...i want i want...lemme know if you're goin to sell it! the sooner the better! :)

LOL i hope i can give you the good news asap dude!
sad giler tak dapat pegi.. aihz :(

[jackson_asdf]

btw i've watched a performance in stadium negara.. i can tell you the seating plan is quite far... i've been there to watch some chinese artist(can't remember the name, hate to think of it when i'm there) performing... its better to watch the television beside the stage if there is in MUSE gig.. Lucky i bought the moshpit tix earlier :LOL:

btw if u guys wanna meet up.. why not... itz a good idea to meet up so we can help each other out if any of us got hurt in the moshpit.. btw i'm not sure whether bukit bintang is a suitable place to meet up due to the crowdy area.. btw i'm fine with that.. juz want to see if anyone turns up...

btw are malays retricted in the moshpit?

I actually read somewhere that the event is restricted to Non-muslims, 18 and over. I seriously doubt this is true. They wouldn't have sold me tickets otherwise... i'm not muslim but im only 15 so yeah. Its probably just applies for a certain area where they're selling alcohol...

[mynameisdebbie]

by the way... i heard a few people bought TOOONS of tickets for 30% off, and are selling them for the normal price. talk about scammers... -__-

anyway, i'm up for the meet-up-beforehand-and-form-a-mosh-defence-group-on-the-day-after idea, but i wont confirm it yet. i have no idea where bukit bintang McD's is. i'm lost when it comes to KL. why dont we meet up at the stadium itself, and "get to know" the stadium? so that we'd know which entrance to enter from and whatnots... *coughstalkcough* and that way, some of us might be more familliar with the place and therefore, wont get lost on the way there the next day.

so since i'm only like.. half-confirming the meet up, can i type "Musew00t! (http://board.muse.mu/showpost.php?p=2612934&postcount=719) " instead? :LOL:

[ibelieveinmuse]

gathering....gathering..i doubt if about joining it as i would be busy at that time...
stalking...stalking...thats a good idea...<< :noey: its unethical actually but i wonder how me could be on top of da world if me met em...:p (mary would be happy too right mary??)

[vspirit]

er...i seriously just wanna meet you people. nothing more nothing less. i'm not even sure the mosher-defense thingy will work or not (there's a chance we might mosh each other to death, even). this stalker thing...well if you guys wanna go for it, be my guest. but the gathering i'm hoping will come into fruition isn't for that...so if you just wanna meet up and chat and trade enthusiasm, then the le muchos is for you. if stal--trac--trailing the band is more exciting for you, then i suppose you can form a different gathering for that...or you could go fulfill that mission of yours after the le muchos while some of us head on home.

and deb, i'm just arranging a place where it'll be accessible to most everyone. if a lot of people can agree to it, then we'll just stick to it. if a lot can't, then we might go for your suggestion. is that fair enough? (tho truth be told, i really don't wanna hafta go to the venue a day before...since i'll be spending most of my following day there, looking at the same view over and over again...sides stadium negara ain't that far off from bukit bintang...it'e pretty darn near in fact, so much so that if you can freely choose to go to the stadium, you shouldn't have any problem going to bb as well...)

and there's another reason i suggested bb. if we get too restless to stay in one place for long, we can always adjourn elsewhere without too much travelling involved, anywhere that's anything being within walking distance and all...

and so far there's only one confirmed taker, if i don't include myself. there should be more of you out there...i hope...

[kru3l]

I still have one extra ticket remaining for Rock Zone. A few ppl have emailed me about it already so this is the last notice ;)

Ticket is priced RM113

[zy3038]

i cant confirm for the gathering yet, cos its lyk one month away, and im a student, i dunno how my schedule's gonna be for nxt term.so...i'll confirm asap k?;)

indeed, me like! :LOL: the obvious reason why i suggested KLIA arrival hall n traders hotel as our meet up venue...but anyway..serious tone: we can always go to the stadium after the meet up (if i'm able to go to d meet up dat is..) since bukit bintang mcdonald is not that far from d stadium.. or like jerry suggested: starbucks petaling street. nearer to the stadium, right in d middle of the town.. those who r using lrt, stop at plaza rakyat n walk towards petaling street.

n jackson_asdf, i finally saw d add in the sun. that non-muslim, 18 above event thingy is printed rather small dont u think? so i doubt there'll b any restriction for d muslims or even those below 18 to be in the pitt..

[kru3l]

Those looking for MUSE Pitt Tickets, this may be your last resort. Good Luck!

phew.. lucky i'm just 18 last december.. and i've into MUSE just the start of this year.. what a coincidence... :LOL:

don't worry..they won't care...last year i went to the W.A.S gig...also organised by tiger..they had the same non-muslims above 18 oni thingy..but i went anyway..it was at zouk..the bouncers at the entrance asked for IC, i gave mine..and they let me in anyway....and i got a free tiger on the way in;)

oh, i was 16 back then btw...which means i am still underaged for this..hahah.:p

it's very hard to cater to everyone's need. some prefer to meet up at another location, some another date.

since we've decided to meet on 24th Feb at McD, why not everyone try their best? else.. you can also set another gathering on 25th Feb. who knows, maybe some can attend both gatherings?

i'm pretty sure most of us would want to go to the stadium early on the 25th... maybe we could meet up then too, while we're lining up.

and about the 24th thing, like i said, i'm only half confirming cause i'm still a kid and i'll probably have to take public transport.. which i am completely clueless on, btw. i'll probably end up taking the monorail to BB, which is the same route i use to go to Sungei Wang, that IS the right public transport to take right? :LOL: anyway, yeah i'm only half confirming cause i intend to bring my friend(s) along too, thats okay right? it doesnt necessarily have to be a strictly-boarders-only meet up right?

Hey there, all.

Just thought I'd drop this here to get the ball rolling once and for all.

So meetup, meetup.

Date: February 24, 2007
Day: Saturday
Time: 1300hrs
Venue: Bukit Bintang McDonald's

Those who can make it, please include a "w00t!MUSE (http://board.muse.mu/showpost.php?p=2612934&postcount=719)" in your message and make it orange and bold, and link it back to this post like I did.

All are welcome. Even if you aren't there to form a mosher-defense group with us, or heck, even if you aren't going to the concert at all. The only requirement needed is that you're a fan of their music. Hmm...come to think of it now, antifans (in the context of antiheroes, not the literal translation) are welcome, too, I suppose. What? You have to admit it'll make things interesting...no fistfights, though, cos none of us can afford to be warded or injured in lieu of the following day's event.

As for an identifier of sorts...well, I've been thinking *real* hard on it--gears being rusty from disuse and all--and placing something on the table seemed like a fairly brilliant idea to me. A sign of sorts, ya know? *beams* As to what the sign will say I have yet to work out but I'll come out with something, I'm sure. Suggestions are welcome, too, but nothing too directly MUSE related, k? I wanna something quirky...

I'm not much of an organizer (I usually leave the dirty work to others) but I figured I'll make an exception and get off my lazy arse for this one for the sake of not being moshed to death, after nearly having been. After this, if there are any slacking duties, please leave 'em to me! *salutes*

i shudder to think of you reading fine print...
(translation: your friends are more than welcome. in fact, bringing them along beats you coming alone big time xP)

and you got the trasportation thingy right. just alight at Sg Wang Plaza, walk a bit and when you see the huge crossroads somewhere near Lot 10, you'll also sight a giant Giordano ad or signboard or both. Then look a little harder and you shouldn't miss the golden arches. ;)

EDIT: oh and jerrysoon, your dad doesn't happened to be called Simon, does he?

*fingers cross n prayin hard*

[vspirit]

yes i have, as a matter of fact. you guys'll get a picture of it soon. *grins*

and take your time confirming and don't worry if you can't make it in the end. there's really no obligation at all, anyway. it's just all for shits and giggles (and muse by extension, too, i s'pose).

would be great if you can, tho. ^.^

hey guys.. i was wondering if itz recommended to bring my digi cam along with me.. cause i'm interested in taking MUSE photos for my blog..

mm.not to say dat its recommended tho.they already clearly states that
"NO cameras, camcorders and audio tape recorders, analog or digital are permitted into the concert area." by the management.
but..as for us concert-goers.. we intend to ignore dat ridiculous rules n just go for it...
its MUSE ok.. it won't b happening quite so often as a dayang showcase in planet. heck, probably its a once-in-a-lifetime thing.u surely dont wanna miss those moments.trust me.
but u still haf those guard to deal wit at d entrance.slip it sumwhere safe.:D

i completely agree with you there. but since my sister is going too (she got the Rockzone ticks. i already taught her the Starlight clap! :LOL: ), she's definately gonna bring along the FAMILY digicam with her, so if i wanna take vids.. i guess i'm gonna use my cameraphone instead. :(

so if you're really really afraid of bringing your digicam, you can always use your camera phone. assuming your phone has a camera, of course. luckily for me, my camera phone has 2 megapixels.. technology these days, huh? :)

do you think i should be the one bringing the digicam since i'm obviously gonna be nearer as i got the Pitt ticks when she got the Arena Rockzone ticks? :D

[livinadeadlife]

u got d pitt tics? lucky u! its already sold out by my time.talkin bout goreng pisang panas.lol..
but i think u should b the one bringin d digi cam tho.dats actlly d major purpose of havin d pitt tics in my opinion... u rock harder,got a dam good view n a better picture! i dun think ur sis wud mind.:)
but then again.. dats only my opinion.. (don't wanna cause any siblings rivalry.:p)

ps:\ dun forget all d pushin n shoving.be well prepared!

saw the pics and vids taken by ppl in front at the fort canning concert? they were mostly blur and the better pics/vids were taken by ppl who were sum distance away...

similiar if not more aggressive moshing shud be expected at the pitt come 25 feb, so i think u shud let ur sis do the work..;) u can try taking pics from the pitt tho, if ur chun camera phone has those anti-handshake/jerking feature thingies..

[crazy_mary]

i'm gonna ask my friend to take pictures or even record some parts of d concert wif my handphone coz she's not a fan.. i guess dat'll give her something to do at d pitt and i can enjoy d concert more.. plus i think tired.unhappy is gonna record d gig with his/her nokia n series phone so.. i hope that dude will post d recording here..

people always bring cameras to concert.. so far no problem.. but dont quote me on that..and yeah xy3038, wif d pushing and shoving i dont think d pitt is a suitable place to take pix.. unless if u'r rite infront.. but i reckon d pushing will be worse at d rockzone area coz it look bigger than d pitt..

EDIT: d tix r almost sold out.. only d rm53 tix r available.. do u think it's gonna be a sold out gig?

[vspirit]

*drops jaw* you're right, it's almost sold out. hot damn! you go, malaysians!!!! this way, they'll come back for another round for their next tour...for sure, yo!!! i'm so happy for them, hahaha~ and damn if my respect for malaysian music fans hasn't gone up a hundred notches or two.

respect~~~!

[Nutcracker]

Whoa! I can't believe it's almost sold out, and so fast!! I can imagine how awesome this gig's gona be... But my frens haven't got their tix yet.. they're gona freak out fo' sure, kno wat 'm sayin.. :( it's a shame that their payday is like 7 days away.

Be careful about ur phones.. you might want to hold it tight so that you don't drop it, cuz that was what happened to a few hps at Fort Canning..:eek:

omg i think i just died. i dunno whether to feel happy that Muse are doing so well, or sad that lots of friends of mine wont be going for the gig at all, or will be going for the RM53 ticks in the end :(

and yeah good point... i just got my new phone and if i lose it, i may lose my life too with that :(
i've got a feeling the Pitt is gonna be more violent as the more hardcore muse fans will be the one there, as they're willing to spend more cash. holy shit i hope i dont pass out in the gig...

here's an idea. Muse performing a second date in Malaysia! wahahhaha what are the odds of that, man?
