Do you not have tickets?
They are on sale tomorrow morning at 9! Today was pre sale
Yeah got tickets for the o2 Dublin after failing at getting them for o2 London.
Hmmm interesting... might get some more in that case

From what I read on one ticket site, there are no restricted tickets so my money is on them performing in the middle of the venue. I'm in block L I think
They are doing some sort of weird standing on individual rotating cubes thing... not too sure of what to make of that.
Going nitefly?
Yep, got standing tickets for Thursday at the O2 during the pre-sale yesterday - will make for the 4th time I've seen them, hoorah! Muse were my favourite band since I was ~14, but more recently I have developed a love / hate relationship that is currently drifting towards the latter
I've decided that the whole of Exogenesis is the weakest part of the new album, particularly parts 2 and 3 - it's just too slow. I have plenty of classical music which is more interesting to listen to, I'm not sure why they made parts of it so undramatic.
I tried so hard to get standing tickets for thursday!
Ah well, I just found out I've coincidently booked the Saturday off work
Means much alcohol will be consumed on the Friday
I take it you weren't up at 9am Thursday?
I just bought whatever came up first - thinking they would all sell out instantly when there was a good 20 minute window of being able to get anything. I would have rather had Friday tickets, but it turns out that my friend's birthday was on Friday anyway. Either way, I'm up for drinking all night in London on Thursday, why not

I didn't even know there was a pre-sale thursday, woke at 10, checked on here and saw you mentioning them. Rung them up straight away and they said they had all sold out
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
So I tried today and after 27 mins of refreshing I finally got offered some half decent seats.
I've got the same tickets, and coincidentally this will be the 4th time I have seen them as well!
I still think Exogenesis is the strongest part of the whole album. Part 2 is the best part, while i feel part 3 is the weakest.
Songs like Guiding Light are the weakest.
Ouch. Just to annoy you, I didn't even try to get tickets the first time around - I saw the email the night before and thought 'hmmm, I might as well give it a pop" - don't hate me
Guiding Light is OK, I wouldn't go as far as to say it was 'weak' but it is indeed one of the lesser songs. I think exogenous will probably grow on me, but part 3 is such an anticlimax.
A couple of things about the album:
On Uprising, if you turn the volume up really loud (use headphones), you can hear a 'donk' (almost like the noise a submarine radar - from a film of course) that syncs with the drum beat which makes me think it it was the squeaking of the drum kit. I can't help but notice it all the time now, is it supposed to be there or did they forget to mix it out?
Does anybody else think that the riff in Unnatural Selection heavily borrows from New Born?
