Was anyone else at their 930 show?

T'was wonderful.
Wasn't it back to back nights? My friend was trying to get tickets to that but they had sold out. I wasn't big into them then, I thought "Time Is Running Out" was a lame song until someone handed me "Origin Of Symmetry" then I got into their other albums. Origin remains my favorite.

I first saw Muse at the Curiosa Fest at MPP. They headlined the second stage and tore it up! Then they did that 9:30 show and were just as awesome there. It does boggle the mind that it was almost 10 years ago! So are Muse, like, a dubstep band now? haha

I think they peaked with Absolution
The one after that was goofy fun but a step down and the two after that have been a snore

Thanks Arthways, I did screw up the presale.  Semi 'new' window arrangement, I think.  It's not like Muse is one of my faves, so not too stressed, just dismayed at my own ticket fail.  Will see what happens today.

Should I assume that most if not all GA was sold during fan club and 9:30 presales?  Just don't know whether to start with GA, or just look for seats.

Really? Black Holes & Revelations was amazing. Totally disinterested in the last 2 though. Still an amazing band live though.

wow... tickets were $15 more expensive if bought via the bands presale, thanks to ridiculous fees and no free shipping options.  even face price was $2.20 higher!

TM is cheaper.  who'd a thunk it.


corrected, see below.

And as much as I like the idea of paperless ticketing in principle, it makes you a bit nervous for a show that is 5 months away.

i got 4 in the main concourse through the bands presale yesterday for $287.90 total including the $2.50 shipping fee.  Just pulled 4 similar tickets on ticketmaster showing $316.60.  Not sure what options you had that made it more expensive on TM.

yup, you're right.  i just check and the reason it was cheaper was because i pulled $50 tickets on TM but got $65 tickets via presale.  my mistake.

TM still sucks, yeay!

And of course my worst fears come true.  Work trip gets moved to the week of the show and now I'm stuck holding these paperless tickets.

well that sucks.  however, it allowed you - and a lot of other people - to get tickets.  the alternative would be to have traditional hard tickets, in which case scalpers would have scooped up a lot more of them.
