UK 2009: Support acts.

[Flynn]

The tour is ages away yes, (though you wouldn't know it from the amount of stress going on) but who would you like to see support Muse on the UK leg of there 2009 tour.

I have this terrible feeling it will be Empire of the Sun, I bloody hope not.

[WutDaFucksy]

Escala :D

[Feed the Hex]

It's Muse, the support will be utter shite ...guaranteed...:LOL:

[!Lynam!]

Escala :D

Amen lol :LOL:

[JakeLulz]

Do they even get to decide who's supporting? Or does Warner control that too..

[Judderman]

It's Muse, the support will be utter shite ...guaranteed...:LOL:

yep true... these arent special shows, they will have 1 support act. and no doubt it will be terrible.

[Ragoo]

As long as it's not some new indie wannabie whiners I'm happy :)

[Clunge]

As long as it's not some new indie wannabie whiners I'm happy :)
It will be.

[FrusciantErased]

I don't care what anyone says! The Noisettes were pretty damn good!

[Ragoo]

It will be.:mad: Dammit. M83 (a French electronic band before KoL) were brilliant so I'd rather prefer some sort of an electronic band than some pussyrock ala Coldplay.

[Silass]

It better not be a shit support >< Im hoping for someone like Pulled Apart By Horses or Blakfish, but that will never happen :P

[Mozza]

I don't care what anyone says! The Noisettes were pretty damn good!

If you like mental women spitting all over you then yes they were good

[RazzGirl]

lol.. imagine them getting Mindless Self Indulgence to support them.
:dance::dance::dance:
:eek:

[Davy]

If you like mental women spitting all over you then yes they were good

and waving their dirty feet in your face

[Olly.]

Escala :D

fucking love em

[hipbones]

Escala would be epic.

[seregon]

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :yesey:

[vibrantXhearts]

Olol, an advert for Escala's album just came on the telly. They really are pretty good!

[Amy W]

Escala ftw!

[*OoS*]

Escala would be epic.

THIS.

Or, Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds!!! :awesome: :LOL: (I missed them come to Sheffield last time, and Matt would definitely be into it :yesey:)

[gazgriff]

Everything everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Astronoma]

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :yesey:
That would be awesome.:happy:

[HGBail]

lol.. imagine them getting Mindless Self Indulgence to support them.
:dance::dance::dance:
:eek:

lol now THAT would be something to see. :LOL:

I would personally LOVE In Case Of Fire to support them, they are amazing!

[Judderman]

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :yesey:

hell yeah.


considering the similar prices to the wembley shows... i think we deserve 3 support acts..... and a 2 hour set.

[Hot Burrito]

Susan Boyle.

[soberhypercondriacdementia]

Susan Boyle.

This.

[Finlay]

The Futureheads at the RAH were dreadful:LOL:

[dip]

I reckon the support will be from a band who'll have just finished touring for their album, so pretty much anyone at Reading/Leeds might be a shout.

[garseys]

Escala, absolutely perfect support for them!

[peaches]

Susan Boyle.
:LOL:

[ducksquackmuse]

Susan Boyle.

God so yes! :LOL: :LOL:

And yeh The Futureheads were pants, but that was organised by the Trust not Muse management so hopefully won't be happening.

[dougs]

when do ye think we'll hear more about support acts?

[Milky Joe]

when do ye think we'll hear more about support acts?

Before the gigs probably.

I second Pulled Apart By horses. Blood Red Shoes would also be nice

Edit: And Twin Atlantic, Dananananaykroyd, Pure Reason Revolution, Rolo Tomassi

[salanderson]

Battles - Would be intense.

We are scientists

Placebo?

friendly fired

[bILLOO]

lol.. imagine them getting Mindless Self Indulgence to support them.
:dance::dance::dance:
:eek:

That would be awesome!

Although I think Lynz is busy being mummy this year.

[Hi, how may I help you?]

Arctic Monkeys!

That would be awesome but it's so not gonna happen

[PixieJ]

Escala, absolutely perfect support for them!

What makes you say that?

[Mark]

Get Reuben to reform and support Muse!

Failing that, wonder what Incubus are doing November?

Failing that, anyone but The Rasmus, who are, as we know, the world's worst band period.

[RazzGirl]

Arctic Monkeys!

That would be awesome but it's so not gonna happen


omfg, that would be absolutely epic.

[WutDaFucksy]

MUSE
Escala
Little Man Tate

[Flynn]

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :yesey:

No No No.

Not going to happen sorry. Yeah Yeah Yeahs are popular enough in their own right.

[SuperGinge]

Before the gigs probably.

I second Pulled Apart By horses. Blood Red Shoes would also be nice

Edit: And Twin Atlantic, Dananananaykroyd, Pure Reason Revolution, Rolo Tomassi

Twin Atlantic would be a good support. They're a decent band. :happy:

To be honest though, I really don't care about the support. I'm there to see Muse. It's obviously nicer if there is a decent support, but if there isn't I really won't be all that bothered.
But come on, I doubt they'll be able to pick a worse support than The Noisettes! :chuckle:

[allypap]

Marmaduke Duke? That'd be cool. Errr.... there are a lot of bands i'd like to see support muse, but it's just not gonna happen :(

[James.]

It won't be anyone any good I'm sure.
Elbow were awful in 2003 (but are strangely not too bad now), Noisettes worse in 2006, there's not good history when it comes to support for Muse in arenas.

[[DT|_Me]DEADSTAR]

It won't be anyone any good I'm sure.
Elbow were awful in 2003 (but are strangely not too bad now), Noisettes worse in 2006, there's not good history when it comes to support for Muse in arenas.

Cave In. wasn't that bad in 03

[Amy W]

How about no bands supporting, I want Stavros Flatley :phu:

[Nattywba]

How about no bands supporting, I want Stavros Flatley :phu:

hell yeah!!

then a flawless/diversity dance off! :p

[david_icke]

Avenged Sevenfold :\mm/:
Bellamy & Gates in one night, ahhhhhhh :stongue:

[nirajp]

It's Muse, the support will be utter shite ...guaranteed...:LOL:

Wembley wasn't awful but yea you're right. I don't understand why though. The muse boys seem to have good taste; name dropping dudes like millionaire, deftones, cold war kids, tom waits etc. Maybe it is the record company choosing; which would suck.

Also I'm hoping it won't be another generic 3/4 peice rock band playing generic rock music. Stuff like rodrigo y gabriela would be more interesting for a support band.

Part of me also wants Oceansize to support cause 'size are the most amazing band out there and deserve to be better known.

[Mark]

I'm still trying to get Reuben to reform to support Muse :LOL:

[Flynn]

Foals. :yesey:

[*TC*]

radiohead I've heard

[Naomi]

Soulwax were brilliant in 03 - proof that their support isn't always terrible!

[WutDaFucksy]

I'll be the support act (it means i get in :awesome:)

[nirajp]

I'm still trying to get Reuben to reform to support Muse :LOL:

:LOL: I think that would upstage muse ever so slightly.

[missusmuse]

It won't be anyone any good I'm sure.
Elbow were awful in 2003 (but are strangely not too bad now), Noisettes worse in 2006, there's not good history when it comes to support for Muse in arenas.

:LOL: noisettes were awful... bad times!

[Mark]

radiohead I've heard

I came just imagining that impossibility

[Naomi]

I'd love Air Traffic to support - they sound quite Muse-ish so would work really well, I think. Or some other alternative piano-based stuff - Cold War Kids, Dresden Dolls, etc. Ooh! Or Dragonette! No real reason, just cos I love them.

[butterflies and hurrijames]

Idealy, get Amplifier or Oceansize. Creditable bands to support them for a change!

[Olly.]

Regina Spektor or Stavros Flatley

[Amy W]

Regina Spektor or Stavros Flatley
We're on the same wavelength here :awesome:

[Max]

I'd love Air Traffic to support - they sound quite Muse-ish so would work really well, I think. Or some other alternative piano-based stuff - Cold War Kids, Dresden Dolls, etc. Ooh! Or Dragonette! No real reason, just cos I love them.

Air Traffic...:noey:

[Jay Bee]

Metric!

And love for Tegan and Sara to support, just to make my best friend jealous.

[Naomi]

Air Traffic...:noey:

What's wrong with Air Traffic?! :p

[Davy]

Regina Spektor or Stavros Flatley

Yes please

[lyricalwax]

Metric!

And love for Tegan and Sara to support, just to make my best friend jealous.

I second Metric.

Regina Spektor and Cold War Kids are good shouts, although I don't think Regina will ever support or play in arenas.

[And]

White Lies or Biffy Clyro would be good

[Clunge]

Nine Black Alps.

[BobjimTheAwesome]

Vib Gyor or Sigur Rós for me:awesome:

[newborn_assasin]

Dylan Moran

[Judderman]

Soulwax were brilliant in 03 - proof that their support isn't always terrible!

SOULWAX. fo sho. :yesey:
genius idea...

and whoever mentioned metric. GENIUS. actuall... would fit nicely, a good size band. yes.

[InsertCreativeNameHere]

Air Traffic...:noey:

Air Traffic would be a good supporting act. Theres nothing not to like about them. I'm seeing them on the 20th of this month so shush :p

[Steeleman]

I think a lot of people are forgetting...
I believe, by definition, support bands are bollocks :LOL:

I think it's just the law of gigs... :p

[Mobius]

Vib Gyor or Sigur Rós for me:awesome:

No chance of Vib Gyor as they aren't on warner. Marmaduke Duke seems like the closest shout seeing as Biffy Clyro kicked some major ass when they were at wembley.

[BobjimTheAwesome]

No chance of Vib Gyor as they aren't on warner. Marmaduke Duke seems like the closest shout seeing as Biffy Clyro kicked some major ass when they were at wembley.

:(
*Has a listen to Marmaduke Duke*

[dip]

marmaduke duke wont do it.

[mynameissean]

marmaduke duke are merely a side-project. they did a tour in march (which was amazing) and that was it, it wasn't supposed to be as popular as it has become. it's merely a band for the hardcore biffy/sucioperro fans, although now they're getting a lot of airplay on radio1.
besides, new biffy album out in summer so biffy will be busy boys.

i want THE HORRORS to support. 'primary colours' will probably end up being a better album than the resistance, it's a pretty astounding album (listen to it)! i'm not sure that even if they were asked that they would do it, don't think they're a band who want to become too big, but who knows.

[Naomi]

i'm not sure that even if they were asked that they would do it, don't think they're a band who want to become too big, but who knows.

:LOL:

...They'd do it.

[mynameissean]

:LOL:

...They'd do it.

only t i m e will tell! hope so though, they're without a doubt the best band out there to support muse.

[Silass]

ratm, ratm ;) but that aint gonna happen :P

[binarysonnets]

white lies
simian mobile disco
justice

yeaaah.

honestly, white lies would be absolutely fucking AWESOME. but it would kill me even more that I'd have a terrible view. :(

[Shaun!]

i'd like to see Foals supporting. not sure how the mix of genres would go down. Weren't MCR supporting at wembley? I hate that band.

[Don'tPostThePear]

So I herd U2 will be their supporting act.

[blissfullymuse]

Stavros Flatley

This.

[Hysterical_Fan101]

Nine Black Alps.

YES

[AJ20R]

I vote MGMT and Chase and Status

[Futurellama]

I vote MGMT

That could be intresting

[NicoleyMoley]

Regina Spektor would be too much awesome to contain...but I think I'd prefer to see her on her own. MGMT would be good. Or Sigor Ros, or Biffy Clyro...

I saw White Lies supporting before, they were alright I guess.

[p24114]

Idealy, get Amplifier or Oceansize. Creditable bands to support them for a change!

AMPLIFIER WOULD BE AWESOME! And get em some great publicity! I've seen em quite a few times now and to watch em fill an arena would be amazing.

[mikethemuse]

White Lies would be an immense opening act, as folk have said above, they'd be my choice. Other than that, I think someone like Frank Turner / Newton Faulkner might be interesting, not a conventional opener, but a catchy rhythm can work wonders. Or Rolf Harris...

[StockholmSyndrome]

The Fratellis:LOL:
'Cause I Like Them:phu:

[kolko]

MGMT or Elbow would be fantastic :)

[TomDB]

susan boyle

[robnewland07]

rolo tomassi would be awesome as like a 20 minute set first band, then someone bigger that i will be sure to hate, but most of the crowd will go wild for.

[thesupermassive]

MGMT or Radiohead would be intense... or both :D

[PureBliss]

dEUS, Amplifier, Oceansize, Porcupine Tree - any of those would make it even more brillianter for me :-)

[originalboywonder]

White Lies or The Horrors would be ace. Though I'm still unsure if I'd enjoy Primary Colours as much live.

[Benwithjamin!]

White Lies!!

[Jacky Boy]

MGMT or Radiohead would be intense... or both :D

I hope you're not being serious about Radiohead

I think maybe Biffy Clyro would be good, they'll have a new album out around that time so maybe

[cool_bob]

Airborne Toxic Event are pretty good and small enough to support?

[Milky Joe]

dEUS, Amplifier, Oceansize, Porcupine Tree - any of those would make it even more brillianter for me :-)

One day. I will see Porcupine Tree and Muse together. They are too big to support them on this tour, but maybe a one off gig :happy:

[Milky Joe]

Airborne Toxic Event are pretty good and small enough to support?

Yeah, that would be cool.

[*OoS*]

Klaxons :D :p or Enter Shikari? Most people would be like :stunned: and some would be ? :awesome:

[InsertCreativeNameHere]

Yeah actually I'd love White Lies to support them. Theres a good chance it could happen I reckon.

[ryanbmuff]

Future Of The Left will.

[Assassin300]

Placebo simply for Battle for the Sun

[ryanbmuff]

Placebo simply for Battle for the Sun

They're headlining the O2 arena a month later...:LOL:.

[James.]

I also think White Lies would be a great support act, but it won't be.

[hystericali]

Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Biffy Clyro or White Lies would be my dream supports there.

[starlight assassin]

How about Street Sweeper Social Club?

[Placebo_DK]

Well my preferred support would be Placebo. Amazing live band, and my favourite ever. Love to see them or Kasabian support, but both of them are too big, i'd say. For the £50 im paying for my ticket, i'd be hoping that they'll be at least two support acts, and at least one should be amazing and suitable. Love to see Biffy Clyro, of course, or White Lies. Nine Black Alps are immense, and would love to see them. Even though im already seeing them in october, Bloc Party would be amazing, and The Bravery or Editors would be fitting. What about Dan Le Sac Vs. Scroobius Pip? Seems like the kind of weird project that would get the support place. Feeder are a great live band, and would be a good support for them, as would Kill Hannah, MGMT or Ash. Silversun Pickups would also be a brilliant support act for them, and i'd be also pleased if it was TV On The Radio, Wolf Parade or Black Kids. Could be so many good support acts for them, but I bet we'll get some shit like Empire Of The Sun or The Veronicas :(

[Idiot Drugs]

+1 to White lies, they'd be great

[HGBail]

Klaxons :D :p or Enter Shikari? Most people would be like :stunned: and some would be ? :awesome:

Enter Shikari!!

or In Case Of Fire.

[JackAndrews]

could it be the same thing as MCR, where each supports in the others country. if so, linkin park are releasing an album next year :p

[Mark]

Porcupine Tree would be immense, they have a new album out soon too. Although they probably wouldn't be that conventional a choice. I wouldn't half mind seeing Puggy play, they supported Incubus a couple years ago and were absolutely fantastic!

I've also sent Guy of Reuben a MySpace message seeing if they'll reform ;) I haven't really, but hopefully someone has no brains/lots of guts to!

[happyfoxtimes]

muse supporting muse

1st off with a small acoustic rarities set list.......

failing that.........our lady peace....archive....or maybe even klaxons.....rummours....

[Joe-]

lol I like that idea.. muse supporting muse!

But if not.. Biffy Clyro/Editors/Friendly Fires/White Lies or Modest Mouse would be good :)

woo

[Mobius]

I think Mexicolas would be a great opening band. :)

[hobomania]

My demand for tickets would go through the roof if Does it Offend You,Yeah? were one of the support acts.. I can dream.. :rolleyes:

[gazgriff]

everything everything would be absolutely amazing

listen to suffragette suffragette and photoshop handsome.

[robnewland07]

My demand for tickets would go through the roof if Does it Offend You,Yeah? were one of the support acts.. I can dream.. :rolleyes:

i swear someone told me that they were splitting up

[Livvy]

i swear someone told me that they were splitting up

They already did, haha!

[Clunge]

Good, they were feckin' shite.

[gazgriff]

Good, they were feckin' shite.

everything everything however :P

[Pip]

Having seen Kasabian support Muse last year that would definitely be my ideal gig!

I know it won't happen again though so am expecting the usual great Muse support along the lines of The Noisettes, DPT or Glas Vegas. Really enjoyed all of them supporting Muse in the past :stunned: :LOL:

[Placebo_DK]

lol i like that idea.. Muse supporting muse!

But if not.. Biffy clyro/editors/friendly fires/white lies or modest mouse would be good :)

woo

modest mouse would be awesome.

[tsh01]

As a lot of you seem to be asking for White Lies as support just a quick heads up. Their own tour in November is on sale this Friday and they will be a presale on Wednesday. Seems to be the Academy circuit with dates I have seen in Newcastle, Sheffield, Nottingham, Norwich, Bristol, Birmingham, Glasgow, Leeds and Brixton but may be more

Obviously not going to be support for Muse therefore but thought worth posting in case anyone wants to try and get tickets.

Presale links will probably be on their website but if anyone wants to PM me I will pass on once they are posted.

[Max]

I'm glad it isn't White Lies to be honest. I don't think they are anything really special to be honest.

[MandyNau]

Can I just say that Noisettes have greatly improved since they supported muse...wouldn't mind having them back :p

[kaza560]

CSS!

[Mozza]

Florence and The Machine, book it now!

[Jay Bee]

I've decided that the support act should either be Metric or Mute Math.

[xpolkerdotx]

Bat For Lashes would be nice

or Dinosaur Pile up

MGMT would be awesome

[Bilbo-215]

I Must say, I seen the Noisettes, May 16th supporting Maximo Park. I really enjoyed it. She's a great frontwoman, and the drummer done this amazing solo that lasted about 3 minutes. and his hair and beard is ridiculous:LOL:

[madzip]

Florence and The Machine, book it now!

+1

As long as it isn't the Noisettes again... man those gold lame pants were just... just... horrid.

Personally not too bothered who supports.

[Ogzzi]

Idealy, get Amplifier or Oceansize. Creditable bands to support them for a change!
Agreed x1000

Oceansize are awesome.

Twin Atlantic or In Case Of Fire would be great as well.

[fspigeon]

Marmaduke Duke? That'd be cool. Errr.... there are a lot of bands i'd like to see support muse, but it's just not gonna happen :(

Well, they got Biffy for wembley, i'm not sure Biffy Clyro would do it again, they are really big now.

I can see muse liking a bit of Marmaduke; nonsense and fun in musical form. :)

[hyper_chondriac_muser]

Anyone remember The Noisettes for the BH&R tour? Aka 30 mins of HELL! (I don't actually remember if it was 30 mins long or not; felt like days :stunned:) Judging by that, I'd say support will be shite. And the Wembellamy Stadium support acts don't count, they were one-off, purposely OTT events, so they had to get some big names (although only some of them were any good. Mainly Biffy tbh, lol).

[bILLOO]

Yeah! Thankfully I was only at one of their support gigs. The crowd really didn't like them. :stunned:

[Milky Joe]

I didn't think they were that bad :rolleyes:

I've seen worse support

Any idea how much the tickets are?

[BrianTheSnail]

The Mono Effect would be good. I'd like to see that.

[ryanbmuff]

the monkeys or maximo park.

[Milky Joe]

Can I just say that Noisettes have greatly improved since they supported muse...wouldn't mind having them back :p
No they Haven't!:LOL:

sabrepulse!

[brian27]

earplugs are for the warm up bands! Save yourself for Muse!
Unless its Kasabian again:yesey: /doubt it though

[Henguz]

U2 are really the Support band when they are with Muse in North America:p
We all know Muse are the better band!:LOL:

[Tornado]

To be honest, I don't really care. They'll just be playing in the background while I'm getting beered-up. :D

[Time-Is-Running-Out08]

lol.. imagine them getting Mindless Self Indulgence to support them.
:dance::dance::dance:
:eek:
id walk out

As long as it isn't the Noisettes again... man those gold lame pants were just... just... horrid.

Personally not too bothered who supports.
The Noisettes supported Maximo Park and were awesome but they kinda fit into the same genre so they kinda work however, them supporting Muse would be shit cos they're nothing a like they need a band that is electronic but with a bit of rock..DAFT PUNK! HAHA

[Pip]

I saw them twice! :eek::eek::LOL:

I didn't think they were that bad :rolleyes:

I've seen worse support

For me the worst support Muse have had were the DPT. Dire in every way.

[Judderman]

any newer up and coming bands been signed to warner recently? hmmm :erm:

[Joe-]

Editors just announced dates for october, hmm pretty unlikely now

[Milky Joe]

It was never likely.

[butterfliesallhavinfun]

Don't know if it's already been asked but when do they usually tell us who the support acts are?

God they were awful at the SECC. The female singer was acting Rasta for the majority, and she was getting on my nerves. I was expecting her to start imitating Ali-G's voice!

Stalingrad Cowgirls ... :facepalm:

Lady GaGa.
Would actually be epic.

Yes plz!

[heyheytomo]

kinda a different genre but hey who cares it would be a good starter MGMT for the win
who knows we might hit lucky and get lucky and get a huge band like chilli pepers that would make me pay 80 quid on viagogo for the ticket i need :pirate:

[Liz0_o]

Justin Timberlake!!!!!!!!!


:awesome:


:noey:


:eek:
N'sync

[Peroxide Pixie]

Something different, something that doesn't make me yawn all the way through like your average indie crap :rolleyes:

DJ perhaps? Other bands do that and it's a lot more fun.

[Clunge]

I'm liking the comedian idea :LOL:.

Bill Bailey would be an immense opening act!

[salanderson]

Please be late of the pier or Metronony. It should be some hot young British talent for the O2!

Plus +20 on both, seen metronomy support CSS and foals. They were better than both.

All I'm thinking through the support of a Muse gig is "I wonder what they will open with, TAB or KoC...", not about the band that are playing. Apart from Biffy at Wembley, who were immense.
And +1 on Noisettes being shite.

That's because they always have shit support, you would have thought as they seem pretty diverse they would have some one good....I've given up hope on Muse support acts :LOL:

[lalalive]

Prodigy :awesome:

i would love that...

[*OoS*]

Hell yeah. :awesome:

Now that would be EPIC! My favourite band and musical combined into one show.

:D You going to be at Sheffield/Glasgow/Rotterdam? I have a feeling we'd get along :LOL:

[centisuk]

Wouldn't mind seeing Passion Pit as support but who am I kidding.

+1 for White Lies. They could use supporting Muse as a warm up for their own gigs

[fspigeon]

Lady GaGa.
Would actually be epic.

This.

[Judderman]

This.

+1

however would go down like a bag of shit with most of the muse moochers....so no.

im not sure who id like to support.... the faint would be good. yes... they should. OMG Ladytron?!?! please.....or we could get shy child back in... innit. they were geniussss.

[nendo]

i wouldn't mind seeing innerpartysystem for support

[lalalive]

Wouldn't mind seeing Passion Pit as support but who am I kidding.

This. I saw Passion Pit. I think they're pretty amazing.

[Antipathy]

The Lonely Island.


that would be just .... epic. :LOL:

[James.]

+1

OMG Ladytron?!?!

Wouldn't be bad at all, saw them support Interpol last year and they were great. Maybe Mira could sing a Muse cover in Bulgarian!

[Judderman]

Wouldn't be bad at all, saw them support Interpol last year and they were great. Maybe Mira could sing a Muse cover in Bulgarian!

i dont think i would complain if she did...

considering the faint and ladytron have been touring together in the u.s.... and ultimately need to be supported more by the uk..... i think it would only be fair if muse had them both support, as exposure really :)

[Dirty K]

if No Doubt were still going id love to see them support, then i could drool over matt after my boyf has got his kicks from gwen, everybody wins ;) ....back in reality i think Sound of Guns would be pretty damn cool, get everyone jumping

[StephySuperficial]

This. I saw Passion Pit. I think they're pretty amazing.

Passion Pit are brilliant
The Music would be pretty awesome supports too

[jackreddy]

well hopefully wont be worse than the streets or mcr lol id rather have like hullabaloo being shown on massive screens LOL coz they dont play most of the awsome songs on there and in my opinion there was more energy put into hullabaloo lol

[jackreddy]

i know................ MUSE supporting then MUSE again :) would satisfy all lol

[Mozza]

well hopefully wont be worse than the streets or mcr lol id rather have like hullabaloo being shown on massive screens LOL coz they dont play most of the awsome songs on there and in my opinion there was more energy put into hullabaloo lol

No band should ever support themselves.

[TheFeederFish]

No band should ever support themselves.

Agreed. No member of the main band should appear on stage beforehand. I was at UEA to see We Are Scientists, when Keith Murray the lead singer came on and played keyboard for the support band, Oxford Collapse. It didn't feel right.

[Pip]

Micky Jackson? :D

He'll be too busy dodging his own commitments! :LOL:

[Amy W]

Really? That totally ruins the vibe if the singer plays with the support band, then goes off and comes back on again. It just ruins the surprise of having them all come out together as a band!

[Steven_K]

Editors are touring in the UK around the same time (i'm seeing them in Manchester) so they'd be a decent option

[seregon]

Wouldn't be bad at all, saw them support Interpol last year and they were great. Maybe Mira could sing a Muse cover in Bulgarian!

I thought they were pretty pants supporting Interpol :erm:

[hellomuse]

so long as its not fucking glasvegas like last time in dublin im good. kasabian were pretty awful too.



--13/08/08 Marlay Park, Dublin
--06/11/09 O2 Arena, Dublin

[TaperJeanGirl]

Assvegas were dire.


kasabian were pretty awful too.


:stunned:

:noey:

[a-museing]

Nah I'm going to Dublin.

Yay another phantom fan. I'm going to see Phantom of the Opera in Vegas baybee :dance:

Is that with John Owen Jones as Phantom? Id love to see him play phantom, my boyf seen it 13 times now, hes a huge musical fan. Took me to see it last thursday for my Bday :happy: was amazing as usual. I wanted to take him to see muse as hes never been!!!! I know its a sin. But alas no london tickets

[ToniTERROR]

Fingers crossed (and toes) for either placebo, the horrors or msi.
that would be immense... :D

either way, the gig is gonna be great anyway. i cant complain.
i wouldnt care if rihanna was supporting.
i'd be dissapointed though... :\ but still muse are great :D

i would die happy at that point.

[fspigeon]

Elbow would be good.

A bit too big now i suppose, but they could borrow muse's string orchestra!

[gar23]

KASABIAN KASABIAN KASABIAN. Oh and Klaxons

[Assassin300]

They're headlining the O2 arena a month later...:LOL:.

oh, well fair enough then

sorry mate, looks like placebo is impossible.
Their tour dates clash with muse's. they are performing nights muse are.

My personal thoughts on the matter are, I'm not to fussed if i like them or not just as long as its not someone i hate (ie. glasvegas or kasabian) both of which are unfotunately free during muse's uk tour.

If I had to put my money on anyone it would be Franz ferdinand.
Their nonstop europe tour takes a mysterious break for a month from late october to late november.

these dates coincide with the uk leg of muse's tour. I'm hoping its them.

other performances id like to see but don't actually expect to do it are yeah yeah yeahs or la roux.

[gunnpj01]

lol.. imagine them getting Mindless Self Indulgence to support them.
:dance::dance::dance:
:eek:

I think I might sell my ticket if they support them, saw them at Leeds fest last year waiting for Alexisonfire, I very nearly left..

Speaking of which. ALEXISONFIRE! Would love it if they supported :D

[gar23]

Oh dear just listened to that mindless self whatever on Youtube. Awful

[hazzamid]

would love passion pit or gallows to support :)

[john4muse]

would love passion pit or gallows to support :)

no, not my cup of tea at all. they are available to do the uk leg though.
id rather passion pit than gallows if it came to it.

[john4muse]

ha, they do look pretty aweful. he stole a fans phone, which he was videoing him with, haha. thats just hilarious.

[WutDaFucksy]

Pendulum

[Nattywba]

Manana would be amazing!!

www.myspace.com/mananamusic
(www.myspace.com/mananamusic)

they should so get them to support :D

[melanie64]

asuming it will be crap to make muse even better ! ie noisettes ,the streets , stereophonics were best band before them at V only exception

[john4muse]

does nobody think it weird franz have a month gap in the middle of their nonstop tour. I mean tours rarely have a gap in the middle of them right, you get maybe 1 or two days off between gigs , that doesn't change, even when you switch continents, but franz have a month gap in between their european gigs and their uk gigs. This all coincides with the same dates muse begin their uk date.

hmm, I just think this seems very coincidental.
do bands choose their support as far ahead as this. for franz to be supporting them this decision would have to have been made along time ago before franz drew up their own tour.

FF would be amazing as a support act but I doubt the support would be as big a name. It's probably just Franz having a break, although its strange for the break to be as long as it is.

True, but I wouldn't rule them out, I'm guessing it might be different supports for various legs of the tour and I think FF would be a definite choice for at least a few gigs :)

Let's just hope that it's someone vaguely interesting...

[Hot Burrito]

My demand for tickets would go through the roof if Does it Offend You,Yeah? were one of the support acts.. I can dream.. :rolleyes:

Hell yeah.

[Nattywba]

Dylan Moran

that would be genius :LOL:

[TheFeederFish]

Hell yeah.

+1 for DIOYY? and FF, although FF is probably unlikely. DIOYY did a remix of Map, so they obviously know them in some capacity. I guess we will have to wait and see :)

[*TC*]

Surprised at the amount of people wanting MGMT.
Personally, I would fucking love them to do it, more than most people you could mention to me.

[Joe-]

Funeral for a friend? :p

[bob19933]

Oh dear just listened to that mindless self whatever on Youtube. Awful

Not really, they would suite Muse well.

But, Nine Black Alps pretty please.

me too. i love them :)

[Jezorama]

If you like mental women spitting all over you then yes they were good

haha they were absolute tosh, about as entertaining as...well, the Noisettes!

[john4muse]

that would be genius :LOL:

hahaha, that would be absolutely mint, comedian opening for a band. its genius as u said, pure genius.

[john4muse]

FF are surporting green day from the 8th of august till the 25th of august.
then they go one their own tour.
which takes a break around the muse uk dates.

FF are still possible in my opinion.
we just have to wait and see.

[john4muse]

Funeral for a friend? :p
id welcome it but i think it unlikely.
having said that its no less likely than most of these suggstions
we have to wait and see.

i dont give two craps they're a great band
