not sure dave would allow this, but i thought it was interesting at least

def music-news-related

lol Bellamy really needs a slap

the only thing Muse are shooting for is mediocrity

Oh lord.

Explosive decompression, anyone?

what a douche
also band sucks

I'm not sure they have an idea about the scale of the cost for their endeavour here.

they have the money

The only venue large enough for their egos.

He's seen The Jetsons too many times...

Fuck you all, this would be awesome.

It's amazing how one shitty album can change so many people's perceptions of a great band.

pretty sure theres loads of us who have never liked muse so...

Agreed, despite The Resistance being terrible that does not change all of their other albums from being fucking phenomenal

never been a huge fan at all...

but hot damn if stockholm syndrome isn't a top 20 song of all time for me

Bellamy's a great singer, but he needs a slap. Hard.

Tbh I think it's quite refreshing to see a ludicrously pretentious batshit frontman in this day and age. Let's face it music would be a lot less interesting without them.

Also I never said everyone loved them, I was referring those who were fans before The Resistance but now just say that they suck and deny ever liking them.

I've gone from loving this band in 2004 to hoping they all succumb to tragedy in 2011.

Fuck you all, this would be awesome.

ATTN: You are not Dethklok.

This article is hilarious.

I don't either but this is just funny...

Muse's excesses are making Spinal Tap look tame by comparison at this point. Dudes need a reality check and a possible ass-beating so they can get back to writing non-shitty music

Fuck you all, this would be awesome.

God, people need to shut up, he's just living his dream, nothing douchey about that, it would be one hell of a gig, seeing the ones on earth are already amazing

Yeah, chill the fuck out, people. This is an awesome idea, YOU'RE the ones being douchebags. Sheesh.

irony

I'd be happy if this came to be with any band, even if they just streamed the thing back live it would be something to see.

lol Bellamy really needs a slap [2]

This. is. amazing. They're not good anymore but this is just so Muse.

YOU'RE THE ONES

Band is bad.

dude's lost his mind

fuck

This is bad ass, and I'm with Acanthus. If any band did this and they beamed it back on TV it would be fucking incredible.

Er... any band but brokencyde.

now that would be amazing....ly funny, and sad at the same time. I think I'd break down and cry actually.

As a Muse die-hard I've learned to take everything Matt says with a handful of salt. Just sayin'...

Maybe I’ve seen 'The Jetsons' too many times

Yes

@thefullypython: are u meat bellamy>

@acorncheese, you'd love to be him, don't lie.

But there's no sound in space, Matt wtf?!

Their not the group the Darkness so it won't happen.

"Tbh I think it's quite refreshing to see a ludicrously pretentious batshit frontman in this day and age."

AHAHAHAHA

yeah so refreshing. so few of those these days.

band sucks

leave them in space.

i can't decide if this is the greatest idea ever or just incredibly stupid and egotistical.
fuck it, if they play their old music i would definitely watch it

Please shut up this band used to have great songs, all bands end up sucking at some point so try being rationnal for once.

"But there's no sound in space, Matt wtf?!"

"Tbh I think it's quite refreshing to see a ludicrously pretentious batshit frontman in this day and age."

I laughed so hard at both of these. I'm totally backing this 100%

Wait wasn't there already a band that talked about playing in space?!?! Fuck i can't think of the name!

Dethklok.

No it was another band, like seriously why cant i think it FUCK!!!

I know, I knoooowwww

matt bellamy sucks d

Everybody jump on the hate wagon here, yay!
It's incredibly crazy, but I'd be quite impressed if they indeed did something of the sort. I mean, if any band played a gig in space, it'd definitely be Muse.

I really can't see any other band who could pull that off with style. Just look at them, they look totally out of this world.

I loved Muse, pre Black Holes. And I think their douchey pretension is kind of endearing

they're clearly too epic to play on Earth anymore

Dear god, had a band like Radiohead or Opeth wanted to play is outer space, most of you guys here would have said it's awesome or something. But here it's Muse, they've released one bad album, that is getting a lot of commercial success, so you guys bring the hate...

No, I'm not a Muse fanboy, I just don't see all the hate, when they've clearly have a pretty consistent discography.

it's not because Muse is bad now, it's because matt bellamy is getting ridiculously full of himself.
I mean, playing in space, seriously?

if bellamy was less of a twat, no one would be bitching

edit: 2212 comments! BAH DUH BAH BAH BAH DUH BAH BAH BAH (YYZ, haha)
another edit: haha woops the album is '2112' not '2212'

Really, don't tell me you wouldn't be interesting in playing in space? please, no one here is going to make me believe that.

And I don't think the number of comments is relevant to the user ^^

the number of comments is the number of comments i've made here. what do you mean it's not relevant
to the user?

and obviously playing in space would be kind of cool, but it's completely unnecessary and probably
super expensive, and muse are only doing this because they think they're large than life.

Bellamy visits the outer rim of his ego

you want to talk about things that aren't believable, you trying to tell me that this is anything less than a pretentious douche of a move is comical

"the number of comments is the number of comments i've made here. what do you mean it's not relevant
to the user?"

Oh no, some users think it's cool to bash those who haven't commented much here, I was just saying I'm not like that"

As for Muse, I'm an advocate of the theory that they're doing this to give something special and unique to their public. Let's just admit that you're right about Matt's ego for a moment. I actually don't mind big egos as long as I like the music.They've made one bad album, if they keep on doing so then I won't be able to stand them, but for now, he can go play in space if he wants, I'm down with that

yah fair enough. It is kind of cool that a band may be playing in space and you're probably right in saying that if it was anyone other than Muse I'd probably be on board. It's just that this is so fitting for Muse in the worst ways possible, like a sitcom or something.

I like muse though (except for their latest which I gave a 2.5).

Dear god, had a band like Radiohead or Opeth wanted to play is outer space, most of you guys here would have said it's awesome or something.

@Aids, Yeah, I gave it the same rating.

@Fade, yeah, you're probably right, but I think we'd be pretty much the same if we had that kind of success.

What the fuck.

I think Bellamy really wants to be the Doctor.

As much as he was probably half serious, I was having a giggle reading the post. Come on people, lighten up.

Actually, I remember writing a similar news article about a year ago with some other band wanting to be first. Who was it now? Let me go check... I'll brb...

Spandau Ballet... Good God.

hahaha

If Kanye hears about this he's gonna want to do a gig in space too, and first.

band is great. anyone who disagrees go listen to their first two albums and then tell me that with a straight face without feeling stupid.

Band is awesome but I feel that ever since they put out The Resistance, Matt Bellamy thinks he is the greatest fucking musician to ever live.

I can already see it now

"i'm happy for you muse, and imma let you finish..."

If any band were to play in space, I think it should be Muse tbh. I know Radiohead wouldn't tackle something so pretentious.

"i'm happy for you muse, and imma let you finish..."

that shit would be all over the Internet in a heartbeat. Matt would bash Kanye's head in his Piano. this would make the headline on every news channel in the world. I'm already seeing it.

"Kanye brutally murdered in space for interrupting Thom Yorke... sorry, Matt Bellamy"

That was just dumb.

oh well, I tried...

It would be cool if the rocket they went in imploded.

no it wouldn't (though I secretly think that's one hell of a death), you're mean

"lol Bellamy really needs a slap"

FACT.

This article made for an interesting talk at the dinner table.

I think Taxt pretty much nailed it, these guys are not Dethklok.

Pretentious is not the word I would pick for the world's first orbital concert. Oh ye of little imagination, this would fucking rule.

if anyone is playing in space its deftones.

Pink Floyd should have done this years ago

I read this yesterday somewhere, sounds stupid but would be cool if they done it

hopefully they are as stupid as their music and they are just out in space and die.

let's hope that some challenger shit goes down.

and if anyone is gonna play in space it should be david bowie.

I'd build a rocket to see that

if only they had not released Resistance .....

hahahaha what the fuck

eureka! ive completed my theory of shit in outerspace!

let x be muse
let y be shit
let z be space
if x = y
then x+z = y+z

therefore, muse in outerspace = shit in outerspace

by god ive done it!

you don't have to be Pythagoras to come out with Toddler's math.

you don't have to be a douche to point that out.

oh wait

I like being a douche sometimes. =)

but I think you do have to be a douche to point it out (I'm sarcasm-impaired)

no doubt a reaction to Thom Yorke's sustainability work.

pretty sure iCarly did this already.

pedophile

"no doubt a reaction to Thom Yorke's sustainability work."

hahahaha awesome

"Dear god, had a band like Radiohead or Opeth wanted to play is outer space, most of you guys here would have said it's awesome or something."

I know I misread, but for that entire first paragraph I was convinced you were writing a letter addressed to god.

leave them in space [238427482949123]

the great gig in the sky

pretty soon they're gonna transport back to their home planet
