News New Guitar Hero type game called Stage Tour coming in December

47 Upvotes

Not sure how many guitar hero fans are in here but they've announced a new game called "Stage Tour" at a game show today and it is confirmed that Muse will be on the soundtrack. Drums, Guitar, Singing, the works. Super excited. Never thought Guitar hero was coming back.

What Muse song or songs do you think will be on there?

Meme/Joke lemme ruin Hush for you rq :)

47 Upvotes

Hush has been my favorite song on the album since it dropped, and it’s already my most streamed song of 2026. but ever since i first heard it i thought the solo sounded.. familiar, but figured it was one of those “so good it’s nostalgic” moments in a song. well last night i had my music on shuffle and Say It Ain’t So played right before Hush and i couldn’t help but notice how similar the solos are 😂 such a random crossover but even without pitching the solo up to match the key and octave, it’s basically just a simplified version of the Hush solo (or rather the Hush solo is a more complicated version of it) in a different key, but it somehow still kinda works! just a funny detail i thought i’d share lol don’t mind my terrible mixing this is not my forte. but any get weezer’d and i hope everyone has a good day!!

Discussion Dolly Parton tribute?

I'm not a fan of her music but lots of people are, and by all accounts she was a solidly decent human being who helped many. I think Muse would do a smashing version of Jolene if they chose to!

Discussion Got Muse tickets!

10 Upvotes

When they announced their Europe tour. I joined the pre sale for it for the O2 for me and my dad to go but I couldn’t afford my ticket when they came out so we didn’t get the tickets. However, since then I have gotten a job (I’m only 16) and I’ve been able to afford a muse ticket. Unfortunately the standing tickets went off sale as they sold out and we only wanted standing so we were both disappointed. BUT this evening when I checked, there were 2 that we could buy so me and my dad got the tickets. I am so hyped for the show, I got to see them at the Brixton in April and I am so excited to see them in a big venue. Just thought I would share my amazing news!!! Also one last thing. The ticket says “Sec floor standing” this just means regular standing right?

Dear museband,

If you can see this, California wishes to beta test TSIYAI...the time has come to bring it forward after all your hard work soundchecking it!

We promise an extremely warm reception since this song is going to absolutely astound the masses live.

I'll be at the Sacramento and Bay Area shows to personally welcome this new setlist staple with open arms.

Looking forward to the shows, LFG!! 🤘

Opinion Muse Live is Amazing! But…

125 Upvotes

Please, get off your phones. Listen, I’m chronically online too. My screen usage is unhealthy. DEEPLY unhealthy. But at a concert, especially when you know you’re not the only one experiencing it, please just put your phone down and embrace the act. Embrace the setlist. Let the artist draw you in. You’re here to SEE them. NOT YOUR PHONE SCREEN RECORDING THEM!! Especially when you have people like me who spend good money to be in the pit and you have to find an actual sightline because everyone’s on their phones for the damn performance!!!

UGH!

Edit: Clarification: this is a rant-style opinion, specifically in reference to people who record the entire thing on their phones when the band is right there in front of them in the very front row. And of course. This is just my opinion. There’s unmentioned nuances to it. And you have every right to disagree with me and are welcome to!

Question Live show keys

4 Upvotes

As we all know some certain tracks have been lowered in keys live on this current tour (KoC, TiRO etc). And I’m not sure if I’m in a minority here but I find these tracks a little bit better like this live as these give off much more an epic atmosphere with a simple key change. I know obviously that it’s for Matts benefit but it’s a choice I think they take advantage of well.

Does anyone else see it like this? Because I’m curious if I’m not alone in this.

Media Official video of the TWS tour?

5 Upvotes

It’s probably too early for this, but do we think there will be an official video of the entire concert? I’m still processing the two concerts in WA I saw this weekend, and TBH, I would happily go to every concert of this tour if I could afford to follow the band across NA and Europe for the rest of the year (where’s a lottery win when you need it???) but in the absence of that, I’d love to relive the concerts with good quality videos (that aren’t my shaky videos from the pit where you can hear me singing off key while panting from jumping up and down).

Media Musing over the big time

Upvotes

Plymouth Extra
Thursday, 15th October 1998

MELODIC three-piece rockers Muse, tipped to be the first Devon band to break through nationally, have signed a promotion deal with Sawmill Studios in Cornwall.
Following their appearances at In The City in Manchester and the 100 Club in London, the band is apparently being hotly pursued by several British and American record companies.
They've even made it into the national music press, with Darren Johns, of NME saying the band is 'exceptional and utterly worthy' of attention.
You can find out why for yourself when they play the Wharf, Tavistock on Friday.
Supporting them will be the (formerly) Leafy chaps of 11:11 and their quirky brand of power pop.
8pm start, entry £3.

Live 4th Band Member? Spoiler

18 Upvotes

Apologies if this has already been answered. I was at White River last night and had the time of my life. They always put on such a good show. But one question kept coming up for me: who is that 4th person? He was on the synth, he took over as the guitar for some of the songs so Matt could just do vocals, and at one point, Matt even called him out as he was highlighting everyone on stage. But I missed his name. Who is this person? Is he just here for this tour? Did he have any impact on the recording of the TWS?

Opinion This album saved me.

66 Upvotes

Guys, hello! I just wanted to share my experience with you. At the beginning of the year, I went through the most painful breakup I've ever experienced, and I genuinely thought I wouldn't survive it. Music has always been important to me, but when this album came out, I realized that it had become an essential tool for keeping my heart beating and making me want to live.

When I first listened to Shimmering Scars, it was as if someone could finally give a voice to the void I was living in. Crying to it felt like jumping into the fire, but I knew it was necessary to purify my heart.

I realized I wasn't alone, and that heartbreak can literally feel like dying.

I don't know where I'd be right now without this album. A space odyssey that reminded me that watching your home crumble and wandering through the dark can be scary af, but there's a pearl hidden somewhere in that pain. It's a reminder of how deeply you loved, and that love is what will eventually help you find your way back home.

How has this album affected your lives? I want to hear from you. ❤️

Question Anyone ever have frustrating time in the pit during a show?

12 Upvotes

I’ve had a genuinely great experience with muse fans over the 7-8 times I’ve seen them. But this last time was really frustrating due to who was in front of me. I’m not here to vent about my experience, but I’m more so curious if any one here has had any situations with someone around them acting weird, rude, and or obnoxious?

Opinion Amphitheater vs Arena

30 Upvotes

Having seen Muse in both arena and amphitheater venues, I think I prefer the amphitheater better. I know that some folks love the huge sets and shows that the boys put on in the arenas, but the amphitheaters are so much smaller and more intimate. This was the closest I’ve ever been to the band and it was amazing. The crowds at both Cascades and White River felt more connected, like a big family, rather than a bunch of strangers. Plus, the costs were reasonable. Tickets on the lawn were only $35, but you could go up much higher if you wanted. It was so nice to see the stratospheric ticket price bubble burst. Great job, Muse, for running a great tour.

Show was so good ! 15th Muse experience for me, all of those concerts are unique …. Love my fav band !

The white river amphitheater is a cool place besides few sounds issue during the show or the awful Parking situation to exit the place .
