Muse: I think my head exploded!

So on Monday, March 15th I was able to see my (current) favorite band! Muse. My friend Chris (@dimwell) told me to be prepared because my head would explode. As the show slowly began he kept bugging me with things like, “Wow, what are they gonna do with that?” and “Where are their instruments?” Chris already knew what Muse had in store for the Sommet Center…or Bridgestone Arena rather, that evening. He always watches shows in other cities to get an idea of what type of show to expect.

Me on the other hand? I wait. Sometimes I will take a sneak-peak. You know…get a little taste of what’s in store for me. Well I am glad that this time I waited. What they had in store for me was a surprise and made it all that much more amazing!

The put on an amazing show starting it off with their current hit “Uprising” from their current album The Resistance. What a way to start a show. They of course played other hits such as my personal favorite Supermassive Blackhole (which can also be found on the Twilight soundtrack), Hysteria, Feeling Good, Twighlight, and Time is Running Out. They closed the show out with Knights of Cydonia (just as I wanted). What a show.  Note: You can check out the full set list http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/muse/2010/bridgestone-arena-nashville-tn-2bd4ac32.html

The lasers were the most surprising to me. I know Muse puts on huge shows in Europe, but I never expected them to bring the “big guns” to the U.S. They didn’t either (check out their article in Rolling Stone).

Thank you Muse for being my favorite band of all time right now in this moment. Much love!
