Anymore for any more?

YouTube is taking ages. AGES.

Oh. Finally.

Bioshock - Sing For Absolution

I did this. I was bored.

Look what you made me do. I bought a Hello Kitty calculator.

Oh. My. Fucking. God. (You Tube Link)

That was the best show ever. O.o I want it on DVD. Now.

Bored.

Surprisingly.

Same old same old at work today. I feel unusually tired though. I guess its because I haven't had a decent sleep since before I went to Paris. Boo.


It won't stop freaking raining! O.o There was some stupid article in the paper predicting that we'll only have one day off summer this year, on July 15th. I thought we were going to die from Global Warming this year? Emphasis on the WARMING. >_<
G's out at a job interview and no-one's online. Just tried to call my Mum, no answer.

*Grumble piss moan whinge*

Might have a look at eBay. Guh, I always spend money when I'm bored.

Claire @ work reminded me my birthday is next week. Wahbiscuits. How did that happen?

So, we're back.


Where to start?

June 16

Dear Fuckheads,

Thank you so much for making what could have been one of the greatest ever gigs truly memorable for all the wrong reasons.
Jesus, the people talking during Hoodoo, Blackout... *rolls eyes* You are pathetic. We are all aware that the baloon people have wires attatched, as otherwise they would fly off into oblivion, and as yet, Muse haven't done that to anyone*. That we are aware of anyway.
*Perchance this is an idea for goblin disposal.
Also, special mention to the blonde girl shouting at the start of Unintended "I PAID THIRTY QUID FOR THIS TICKET AND THEY'RE DOING MY FUCKING SONG!" and then continuing to shout the lyrics AT Matt Bellamy with loving, over the top arm gestures.
Also, to all of those trying to sing falsetto. You should be locked in a room with Gerrard Way and forced to debate the meaningless of suicide. More on that later.
Having said that, _citizenerased , openskies , phoebeagle and fiyre (hello!) were all there to share the... shall we say, experience and made it more than bearable. Thank you.
Extra special mention to Dan, the typewriter player. You make teh Bellamy happy and that's what counts. I made you an icon so you can continue to play the typewriter long into the night, making the banana eating one happier by the hour.

June 17 caused me many bruises and pain, but aside from the idiot trying to mosh to Feeling Good (uhh?), a proper Muse gig. Although we nearly died, it would have been worth it.
Shoutout to Gerrard 'suicide is not the answer' Way; you neglected to mention that if all your fans killed themselves, you'd not sell any more records. But, in turn, if they listen to your music too much, then they'll kill themselves. Overall, don't come back to the UK too often and things will be well balanced. You got booed. Twice. Ha ha ha. Oh yes, Ha.
WHY did they sing a song about cancer? Really... why?
I blame Dom.

Muse created some amazing moments, especially when they played Unintended last night, rather than cheering when the song started, everyone simply joined Matt in singing. Amazing.
Surprisingly, no Muscle Museum, but we'll see what they play in Paris this Saturday.

Let's keep fingers crossed for the DVD at Christmas (they'd be stupid not to.)

Thank you, _citizenerased for an amazing weekend, see you on Thursday to start it up all over again*.
*Just let me recover first.

Well we're going to see Muse tomorrow.

I'm still pretty hacked off about My Chemical Romance (read: having to see said band) on Sunday. I'm not a fan of support acts, especially 'well-established' ones such as the leaders of the emo race that have come to steal your soul.
I'm going to Wembley to see my favourite band play their biggest show so far and I really, really have no interest in seeing MCR, The Streets or whoever else. The problem is, if we go in late then we're screwed equally.

My question is, are support acts just a way of paying for bands we'd never choose to see in a million years? (May I take this moment to remind all those attending Wembley last year of The Noisettes?) I genuinely begrudge paying to see MCR. Because really, that's what I'm doing. I'd very much like to give the money to Muse and only Muse.

I already feel a little tinge of dissapointment, a little cloud on the horizon of having to deal with all the support fodder before the main event. I know Muse will be amazing, they always are. But I really, really don't want to stand there for hours and hours in an ideal world.

I know it'll be worth it in the long run.

See you in two days.

Rules:

Pick 25 songs in the order you want to hear them at Wembley this weekend
No non-Muse releases (ie no fantasy covers)
Post in your journal your list and encourage others to do the same.
subliminal_dart's list is obviously the best. Obviously.
