MUSE COMING TO THE O2!
News last updated: 24-09-2012

TICKETS FROM €54.65 (INC BOOKING FEE) ONSALE THIS FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 28th 10AM

The incredible MUSE will play The O2 Dublin on November 3rd as part of a massive European tour. Tickets from €54.65 including booking fee, go on-sale this Friday 28th of September at 10am. It has been almost three years since they have played Ireland so this is a real treat for Muse fans, as it also coincides with the release their sixth studio album “The 2nd Law” on Helium 3 / Warner Records this Friday 28th September. The group has made a stunning short film to preview the album; this can be seen on www.muse.mu. New single Madness is here : http://wtrns.fr/7wKSaMordGcNMB
Muse didn’t set out to make the most gloriously ambitious album of their career. How could they have? The band who dreamt up Supermassive Black Hole, Knights Of Cydonia and the three-part Exogenesis symphony were already well-versed in going One Louder. Any wilder, any further out there, and Muse would risk incineration by a dwarf star of their own making.
But you don’t become one of the biggest bands on this planet – in excess of 15 million albums sales worldwide, 5 MTV Europe Awards, 2 Brit Awards, 8 NME Awards, 5 Q Awards, 4 Kerrang Awards and winner of the Best Rock Album Grammy 2011; No 1 in 19 countries with 2009’s The Resistance; filler of arena and stadia across the world – by sitting on your hands.
So when Muse approached the making of their sixth studio album, they wouldn’t stint on the choirs, strings and horn sections. And be reassured: guitar-shredding, piano-thumping, orchestra-arranging, book-chewing, big-thinking Matt Bellamy, as the band’s chief songwriter, didn’t lower his sights from The Big Picture nor ignore The Precious Details. And nor were the trio afraid of giving space to a brilliant new element to their sound – songs written and sung by bass player Chris Wolstenholme.
And this time, Muse had the experience born of self-producing The Resistance to apply their studio knowledge to creating the album they really wanted to make. From solid beginnings came big tunes.

“We all had a lot of great fun doing it,” says Wolstenholme, “and hopefully you can hear that on the album. There are some real moments of positivity in the songs. And I just think everyone personally is in a pretty good place at the moment.”
“It feels like the best thing we’ve ever done,” says drummer Dom Howard. “There was a sense of adventure making it.”
“This was a breeze!” declares Bellamy, still high from the experience of seeing rock-operatic new track Survival emerge victorious as the official anthem for the London 2012 Olympics. “We were making ourselves laugh at times with how different things were sounding.”

We'll be doing a presale for MUSE on our facebook page this Thursday at 10am! Dont miss out on this show! facebook.com/mcd.productions

There'll also be a presale for Muse.mu members, just go to the site and sign up. I don't know if people who sign up after the Dublin announcement was made will be eligible for the Dublin pre-sale code though. Some artists have operated like that in the past.

Are we expecting this to sell out within minutes/hours or will it sell 60%-70% of the way on Friday with the remaining tickets going in next few weeks?

I want to get tickets for this but given the fast I've been at a wagon load of festivals and few stadium gigs in the past few weeks and months, funds are tight plus I'm hoping on securing myself a Glasto ticket on the 7th Oct.

But if there's a strong chance of an instant sell out, I'll source the funds and get a ticket!!

karaokeman

I'm thinking this will sell out straight away, well not straight away as there will be extra tix released two weeks before, but the initial tickets should be gold dust.

Just entered a competition in the Metro this morning so hopefully I shall be lucky.

Chancing my arm but could somebody please supply me with a o2 presale code? I would really appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best live band I have ever seen. I just sat there the whole time [actually both times] with my mouth open, catching flies.

*wow wow wow*

JaMarcus Hustle

Muse are amazing live, one of the few bands who can justify a €50 plus ticket imo.

As good as they are not sure if i wanna see them again , have seem them about 4 times at this stage

Decade of Decadence

Was going through my old tickets last night and found the ticket stub when I saw them in the Button Factory/Temple Bar Music Centre in 2000, ticket was only £9!!!
