Home from Muse.
There was some insane ticket drama which almost meant I didn't get in but it all ended happily and the concert was pretty amazing. They played "Cave" for the first time ever (well, so Matt said) and "MK Ultra" (sadly at the expense of "Feeling Good" and "Unintended" but I've seen both live before). My standing space could have been better, but with the (incredibly awesome) stage design they had it didn't matter quite as much. And there was bouncy balls, and laser lights, and Dom and Chris's adorable smiles, and Matt playing the hell out of "Unnatural Selection" which sounded as amazing live as I imagined, and overall, it's probably the best Muse concert I've seen, and it wars with the Foo Fighters for best concert ever. Totally, totally worth it.
Sleeping now.
Random: "Guiding Light" is growing on me, and sounds a lot better live.
Random II: And they're playing at Wembley in September next year! Sadly tickets go on sale next week and I a) don't have any money and b) I'm not really in the position to buy a ticket for something 10 months in advance. But, uh, we'll see, after tonight, we'll see.
