thanks for the replies, ppl.
Sadly enough, I will be in attendance alone, as no one I know here is into muse. I have a friend at macalester,and he's catching their minnesota show, and another in canada who might watch their toronto show.
Hmm, I hope the show doesn't stretch beyond 11.30, cuz im off to vermont the next morrning, and would like a couple hours sleep before it. Oh well, I might never get to see muse in the states again, so it should be worth it!
I had one more question to anyone who's seen muse live before. This is a bit embarrassing to ask, but as much as i love their harder-edged stuff ('megalomania' and 'sunburn' are a couple of big favourites), i was wondering if they ever play the cover of 'can't take my eyes off you', which I found to be a major, major guilty pleasure, for a group that just doesn't make happy music. I saw them do it on a BBC live set, and it was great, but post-absolution, they tend to stick to stuff from absolution and origin o/ symmetry, from what i can tell.
Not a problem if they don't, though. it is sort of a girly song, and would be more than a little out of place in a male-heavy crowd of 900. Which brings me to another question: does muse have female fans in the US? they're huge in europe, so there's a decent number of females attending their shows, but how about here? any clue?
