Meeting Muse

So, my friends and I went to see MUSE. It was amazing! We were about three rows out right in front of Matt. After the show we went around the back where all the tour buses were and waited for the guys to come out. We got Dom and Chris's attention, talked to them, and got to take pictures. Matt came over after them and we exchanged conversations and pictures with him as well.

We asked them when they would be coming to America again. Matt said they plan on coming over in August but will only "go as far south as Washington". We also asked them how they managed to get to tour with MCR and Matt told us (exact quote), "well you see, we're not very popular over here in America, so we have to sort of start from the bottom up... and well... this is the bottom!!" (haha)

After our private meet and greet with the world's greatest band, we watched Matt get into a very nice Ford GT with his girlfriend and take it for a spin around the arena. Matt was peeling out, revving the engine and just having a fun time with this very slick car. He zoomed around the corner and disappeared for a little bit. When we saw him come around the corner again there were flashing blue lights behind him! We saw him get out of the car and talk to the police officer. We started snapping away with our cameras, and just laughing at the fact that Matt Bellamy just got pulled over!

As the officer left (not giving him a ticket) we start yelling out, "Watch your speed!" and "Welcome to America!" Matt said, "Ahhahh! Cheers!" got back in the car and peeled off into the night.

'twas a night to end all nights.

Rock On!
