Okay, I've liked Lightning Bolt since a internet friend of mine sent me Ride the Sky when I was looking for some new unusual music. I've been sort of perusing this board for a while, hehe. *is sneaky and wary of music messageboards*. I also like Muse a lot and I was at Earls Court when they covered Dracula Mountain for their intro, and I didn't even realise it until I came here and saw this thread, haha. Which goes to show it's not a great cover... but still. Why slag them off? Muse are a good band and they've worked hard to get where they are. Okay so they're not everyone's cup of tea, but I wouldn't get stroppy about it. In fact I'd be more than flattered if any band deemed any of my songs good enough to play at the biggest gig of their career. I thought most music fans would feel the same? And yes, Matt wasn't playing in it, because he was preoccupied... poncing around with a camera. ;D That has to be the biggest load of shit I've ever heard, if you saw the Muse Message Board (Which has members from all over the world) after those two gigs, you'd realise just how much in LB's favour it was. Endless threads on what that song was and where to download/buy it from. Haha, hello Haze. Well, one endless thread. ;D S'true though, it was in favour of LB. And it's not as if they've recorded Dracula Mountain and are marketing it. All they did was play the riff. You're all carrying on like Muse are the biggest band ever, and they're really not THAT huge. I saw the word "stadium rock band" a couple of times. Just... no. Joe Public wouldn't give a toss what Muse covered in their intro riff. The people who actually listen and pay attention to the stuff Muse say in interviews are people like us bunch of nerds on the Muse board, and we all know they talk a load of bollocks anyway. Hahaha...

Muse are pretty fucking huge! If Earls Court isn't big enough...I actually found out that my friend's brother used to share a flat with Matt Bellamy ages ago and apparently he really is an arrogant twat who thinks he knows more about music than everyone. SKRONK?!?!?! It's still pissing me off!!!!

Hehehe... I won't argue with that. Bellamy does come across as arrogant, and he does talk a lot bollocks. And this is the reason why most Muse fans don't pay attention to what he says in interviews. If you look at the official board you'll see that we all take the piss out of him because of it, and he knows how to laugh at himself because of it as well. There's even a picture of him around, made by a fan, with the caption "don't believe a word I say." But at the end of the day, music isn't about interviews and discussing, it's about good tunes and happy times, and I just think that if the band liked Dracula Mountain enough to cover it the decision should only be respected by music lovers such as ourselves. ;D

Nah Nuff said then. It's quite weird sticking up for Muse when I spend so many waking hours ruthlessly ripping the piss out of them. Hehehe.. I like the fact that I'm a "Baby Laser Beast."
