No Muse?

Just saw thanks to a trending topic on Twitter (I don't follow gossip magazines, I swear!) that Kate Hudson, partner of Matt Bellamy of Muse is pregnant. If it's been kept under wraps for a bit surely it'll be due around August time, coincidentally at the same time as those festivals they're rumoured for.

I'm not sure whether this makes a difference at all really, Muse could have signed up months ago and this wouldn't have made a difference, but I thought it was worthwhile throwing it out there. Something different to talk about during this complete drought right now!

I read that as well, on twitter... *ahem*

Yeah, maybe they might pull out now, maybe they're not even booked, etc.

Wouldn't mind if they were not here. Wouldn't mind if they were.

She's 14weeks pregnant, she has 26weeks left till the babys born. Leeds is 33 weeks which gives him a 7weeks, 1 and half months between the baby being born and leeds.

Im sure the little one will burn a hole in his pocket (As If) so i guess a paycheck from Festival Republic would be a nice bonus.

Muse still to me look a certian for Leeds Festival 2011 (My fingers are crossed)

Well im to disagree, Muse are a qaulity band. They have been said to be a bit emotionless on stage and not very active. But its a 3 man band, they all have to play and perform. Green Day are qaulity performers but they have very simple songs. When you listen to them they aint difficult to play yourself.

Muse have a difficult songs to play, i struggle to play anything really of theirs. But watching live DVD's of wembley they look out of this world and would have more of an impact on stage than Blink did last year, really enjoyed my chance to see blink but they wasnt anything special.

The King has been dead for over 30 years now and I've seen more life in his corpse than at a Muse concert - and the fans are usually either Kensington art student w*nkers or w*nkers who wish they were Kensington art student w*nkers.

Matt Bellamy is a grade A c**t - a pretentious arse of a man more focused on casually dropping 10-minute piano or guitar solos into his coma-inducing sets than banging out a good old fashioned Punk anthem about hating everything. All Muse is, is a bunch of colourful lights and laser beams that hide an otherwise shitty, dead and decrepit Christmas tree, and nobody likes a dead Christmas tree.

I don't doubt their talent and their abilities but when I listen to them, it reminds me of everything I hate about pop music - it's as if Punk never happened and we're all still in tune to Emerson, Lake and Palmer. There's a time and a place for guitar fret and keyboard w*nkery, and unless you're doing something as ridiculous as King Arthur on f**king Ice then in this day and age there is no excuse for it, just as there wasn't back in the 70s.

If a band feels that they need to excite the audience by having as many superficial elements as Muse do in their live performances, all it does is shows the levels they will go to distract you from the mediocrity of their music.

I don't have time for Muse. There's nothing there. I'd quite happily pay to avoid them.

    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
