Muse Concert

I promised my brothers I would put up pictures from the Muse concert we went to last Monday. It was awesome! I have some videos too but decided not to post them since there are much better versions on Youtube now anyway.

We stood in line outside the stadium for a few hours before getting in. That wasn't one of my brightest ideas, since it was raining the whole time, as you can see. As you can also see from the "grumpy old man face," Morten wasn't too thrilled about the rain either.

We got more excited once we were inside where it was warmer.

We were pretty close to the stage. This is before the supporting band ("The Horrors") came on. They were pretty horrible, hardy har har...

Big crowd. Though the stadium, which is Denmark's national stadium, was actually much smaller than I thought it would be.

There were some pretty awesome video pillar thingies, where the three members of the band would each stand on a pillar that goes up and down. That is them in the middle of the pillars in this picture.

Also some very cool green lasers on some of the songs. The picture doesn't look very impressive, but it was more impressive in real life.

More video pillar thingies.

Matt Bellamy on the piano.

Piano again (tried to get a close up but the lights were too intense for my poor lil camera phone).

I don't remember which song this was.

What I liked most about the concert was how they built up the momentum with long intros and effects. When the concert first started, the band didn't even appear on the stage until slowly building music and effects had been going for about 3 minutes. They really know how to get you ready for a good show.

Here is a video showing another long intro, and the green laser effect:


More piano. Though it's sad that this video stops right before they really got going on this song.


Knights of Cydonia, one of my favorites, was the one they ended with.
