i also have a few of their live albums, official and unofficial. they are also fantastic.

Haarp - Wembley Stadium
Live - Earl's Court
Live - Shepherd's Bush Empire

is there any other live stuff out there that i should grab? i'm pretty picky about quality, i really don't like listening to fan recordings that i have to turn up to 8 to hear what's going on...

Le Zenith, Paris in 2001 which was released as an official live/b sides split recording as 'Hullabaloo'. Definitely, definitely worth checking out if you're after good quality live albums and even more so if you arent familiar with their b sides. It was released on DVD too and I would really recommend getting that as it's quite an impressive visual performance also.

I have seen Muse I think 5 times now and I've never seen an intro like this one. A little jealous really.

The HAARP dvd is amazing.

I like their radioheadness....

I guess that says it all.

I don't see how they're like Radiohead very much at all, besides falsetto and a little of The Bends influence on Showbiz.

I find the vocals to be similar, but that's probably about it, though I tend to think of them as the hard rock Radiohead.

So it turns out that there were two epic B-sides that WEREN'T on Hullabaloo! Definitely check these out if you haven't heard them yet.

Dead Star was but it wasnt on the B sides disc. It was actually a double A Side single with In Your World and was part of the live set on that album.

EDIT: Actually I've just remembered the video of Dead Star from Hullabaloo is up there ^^

Ah yeah, forgot about the 2nd half of Hullabaloo.

Its fantastic. Again I would recommend any Muse fan who doesnt have it to buy the DVD.

I think Black Holes and Revelations was a damn good album. Very futuristic.
