Finally! Muse are playing a local Devon gig at The Den in Teignmouth (a local park) on September 5th and 6th. They will be doing the first public performances of songs from the upcoming album, The Resistance.

So who is going? I am SO HAPPY they're doing a Devon gig again (being a Devonshire girl).

Well I'm not a Devonshire girl but I'm so stoked that they're playing Teignmouth and Devon. Feels right, ya know?

Another good point for Muse

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH IT WAS SO AMAZING!

On the first day when I was waiting in the queue in the morning, there were loads of people filming for BBC news. They interviewed me and I was on TV three times talking about Muse! I was asked why it was such a special gig and why I had got there so early. They also put two other people on, but I was the first and the longest interview that they showed.

The second night was the best. On the first night I was one row behind the barrier, second night I was in the PERFECT position. I was right on the barrier, centre-left, so as to be directly in front of Matt. Because we queued early, we were second to be let in!

So yeah, the supports on the Friday were a bit shaky. The Quails were alright, but Cosmo Jarvis was just plain WEIRD! Of course on Saturday we had Zane Lowe breaking up The Sea (who were really good) and Hey Molly. There was sooo much waiting around because we were let in at about 5.30 on both nights and nothing came on until 7.30! Obviously I arrived in the morning both days too so I am soooo achey now.

Muse. Were. Phenomenal.

This was the setlist for the 4th:

Uprising
Supermassive Black Hole
Stockholm Syndrome + Agitated riff
Resistance
Interlude + Hysteria
New Born + Headup riff
Map of the Problematique + Who Knows Who riff
United States of Eurasia + Collateral Damage (short)
Cave (piano)
Popcorn
Starlight
Undisclosed Desires
Time is Running Out
Unnatural Selection

Encore
Plug In Baby
Man With a Harmonica + Knights of Cydonia

And this was the 5th:

Uprising
Map of the Problematique
Supermassive Black Hole
Resistance
Interlude + Hysteria
New Born
Feeling Good
United States of Eurasia + Collateral Damage (Short because "Sorry I forgot it"!)
Cave (Piano Version)
Popcorn
Starlight
Undisclosed Desires
Time is Running Out
Unnatural Selection

Encore
Stockholm Syndrome
Plug In baby
Man On A Harmonica + Knights Of Cydonia

The light show was magnificent too. There were proper big green LASERS that went over the entire crowd like a cage! Truly spectacular.

I got all teary both nights, it was awesome. On the second night when I was directly in front of Matt, I was (I confess) doing a lot of screaming "I LOVE YOU!!!" in the quiet moments. The first time I did it, Matt DEFINITELY heard because he kind of looked down and did this really cute little smile! I'm hoping it's on film somewhere (the 5th was all filmed properly). Anyway, I continued screaming various things very loudly until my last chance at the very end of KoC, when I screamed REALLY high and REALLY loudly "IIIIIIII LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE YOOOOOOOOOOOU!!!" and Dom came to the microphone (as everyone else left the stage) and said "I love you too. You're deafening."

It was SO amazing.

Anyway, I'm very very bruised today and completely exhausted and SO HAPPY. I cannot believe that he said that.

I also made friends with a very cool Muser called Nikki who I am going to meet up with at the O2 weekend (who I'll try and badger into joining the forum!) and we went to try and find Matt afterwards on the Friday but the security was absolutely insane.

I bought loads of merchandise on both nights - a Resistance hooded zip up top which is black and blue, a white Resistance t-shirt, a black Seaside Rendezvous t-shirt and a brown one with a different design, a Eurasia flag to tie around my shoulders, a Seaside Rendezvous mug and poster, and a stick of Muse rock.

Awesome, awesome weekend.

You can keep your Bellamy, Dommeh loves ME

I was on .mu like some obsessed fangirl watching the set list come through via people tweeting.

So many people I knew went, I could have gone, why the &*%% did I not go?

Tell Nikki she's more than welcome on here

Seriously, all the reports I've read have been awesome, I'm deliberately steering clear of new material until the CD is out.... it's torture

An older Muser was on a BBC news clip I saw, I was screaming ''that's ****'' when I saw it. Any links to your moment of fame?

I can't find any links to it anywhere! I haven't even seen it myself because it was on while I was there. I'm going to have to email the BBC to ask reeeeally nicely for it! If I get it I'll post the link.

Those of us who didn't go obviously hate you for all eternity now. What's that "popcorn" business?? Never heard of it before.

But it's all going so crazy right now, everybody's talking about Muse lol I just love it.

One of my friends on Facebook discovered Muse this week-end lol yeah that's possible. i'm gonna make sure she knows everything she needs to know, no worries. And I'll drag her here too he he

This is Popcorn.

I was in the Express and Echo (Devon local paper) today! Totally awesome. I'm the girl with the dark hair with the blonde woman (my mum) on the left below the big picture.

And also one of Muse's Twitpics with my mum:

The bad news is I went to A&E today and they think I may have fractured one of my ribs on the barrier... but I'm fiiiine and all Mused up so all is good.

Hannah I was trying to find a decent time to introduce myself to you but you didn't seem to recognise me, I was the girl with black hair glasses and the rather outrageous rain mac

I was at the front of the queue as well
