They are indeed. I have tickets to see them at MEN Manchester

Yeah they're doing a show in Aberdeen...might end up going

How are they live? I really don't know if go to to Aerosmith and Muse in GA or only Aerosmith in the VIP sector, where I'd be really close to the band. I've been in the Aerosmith VIP back in 2011, so I could live with being a little further this time. I just wanted to know if I'm doing the right choice as I've never seen Muse live.

About Aerosmith = Long time fan, I listen to them since my childhood.
About Muse = I only like The 2nd Law and some songs like Resistance or Stockholm Syndrome, but they're playing a lot of The 2nd Law so I feel like I can't lose this one.

Really? Muse have been a pretty horrible album band after Black Holes And Revelations. They lost their edge. I saw them live in 2005 and they blew my face of sonically, it was a festival so there was no real stage show. Now it's all about theatrics and over blown songs with twelve minute piano interludes.

Incredible! I first saw them headlining Leeds Festival in (I think) 2006, in the pouring rain, and before that performance I hadn't given them any time at all. But they were fab! I've seen them 2 or 3 times since.

I've been up close in the crowd and right to the back and had different experiences. They use a lot of theatrics, pyro, lasers, screens, robots which is great to appreciate from further back - I'd recommend this to someone who isn't a huge fan. You get to see it all!

I've not seen them supporting this new album due to a lack of finances so I can't comment on their newest show.

Thanks for the information. They headline a festival that starts like 4:00 and they're going to play AT LEAST at 10:00, so or I'm going to have to eat well or I'm going to be further back anyway hahaha, I don't know if they're able to bring robots and lasers as it's a festival, I'll just hope they do as the prices are more expensive that the ones of Bon Jovi + Nickelback!

Thanks for this too, that means that I'm not getting theatrics or stage. So I'll just have to hope they're good.

I never liked them, not my cup of coffee, but The 2nd Law was an interesting album as it was a pretty solid one with influences of a lot of genres: songs like Panic Station, Follow Me or Explorers made me start listening to them.

I saw them at Leeds Fest the year they won a number of "best live act in the world" type accolades. I was very disappointed - they were just alright.

Been to see them a few times over the years- one of my mates takes me to see them as they are his favourite band, and in return he comes along to some Jovi gigs.

They put on a great show, although I do think the stage show is slightly overpowering the music these days. They don't seem to change up much between shows, although do more so between tours and could do with a bit more crowd interaction at their big stadium shows. They always make sure to have a great support line up at their gigs too.
It was great to see the contrast between the Emirates show I did last month and then going to see them play at Horse Guards Parade a week later. But they sound great live, and I really liked The 2nd Law. Panic Station is a tune and Unsustainable sounds amazing loud. Plus they have some incredible live tunes- it's hard to beat being in the crowd for Knights Of Cydonia, Plug In Baby or Time Is Running Out. I would definitely recommend seeing them and they have sneaked up to be my 2nd favourite band at the moment.

Well, I just bought my ticket. Now I just gotta wait 3 months.
