Muse Reading Festival - Knights of Cydonia -28/08/2011

[CrypticWand621]

6:12 If Matt can still scream like that then why didn't he sing Hyper Music? :/

[aqimwolstenholme]

Chris playing KoC with a Telebass? Awesome! but somehow I miss the Rickenbacker.

[Smashwell1]

I crowd surfed during this, did it a bit far back and it was a bit patchy so i landed on my head, ate two delicious pancakes and the went back to my camp and made a huge fire and got thrown out with some of my best friends. Quality night.

[MrSachsie]

@1994savvas It should be everyone's life goal to experience this, and be that close to the godly figure with the shiny guitar that is Matt Bellamy. I was in that crowd at this very special performance, was breath taking!

[sampicko]

Dom's biceps sure have bulked up.

[maja1985s]

@sampicko He works out

[potterlotr]

It's more than official now. I MUST see them live.

[Foryeva]

@potterlotr I now must see them live with the same intensity that a wandering monk must find enlightenment.

[xtpedro]

COME ON WEMBLEY?

[samwba001]

Goosebumps. Words cannot describe how awesome the performance was :D

[Sackandjam]

Apparently this is Nights of Cydonia according to BBC

[eddywalton10]

bet the guy who was crowd surfing at 6:14 was like AAAAAWWWHHHH YEAH

[coolbean08]

I once read that life isn't complete until you've seen this song live... I then saw it, here, after years of waiting. Such truth has never been spoken. People who think they will never see them... don't give up! It's worth it. It's worth it all.

[1994savvas]

@coolbean08 That's why seeing MUSE live has become a life target for me... ;)

[aurelienboulanger]

@coolbean08 Exactly. I wanted to see this song live once in my llife and I did it this year at Reading Festival. No regret! Good luck to everyone who would like to experience a Muse concert.

[sassangorillaz]

Look at the fat smile on Matt's face as he walks off at 9:05 - was even bigger than mine that night! :P

[davz1992]

is chris always so unresponsive

[AlexJGuitarnut]

What did Matt say at the end? haha

[koeimaster]

@AlexJGuitarnut Er Goodnight Reading Festival, see you soon I think? It didn't make sense actually there, let alone recorded.... :P

[MrsSheilaB]

NIGHTS OF CYDONIA? Oh yes, BBC3, we will take you alive !

[flash276]

I'm saving this for if I ever have 10 minutes left to live.

[Zogguz]

i feel sorry for the people with asthma

[y4ewynne]

i wish i didnt get drunk so i could remember there set properly!! Damn alcohol!

[sirtheory1]

@y4ewynne ah so your one of those people who just goes to gigs and get pissed drunk not even knowing whats going on? theres a thing called a pub for that you attention seeking little faggot

[g0dsavethequeen152]

i was here !

[amaury920]

wtf!! Nights of cydonia??

[NowThatsPwoperMusic]

My username says it all :P

[jonnyboy5896]

Best. Night. Of. My. Life.

[KnightsHuSayNee]

not even close, best wembley of all time imo

[RhythmAddictedState]

The man with the harmonica is Chris! xD

[simonw91]

I was there! Better than Wembley (2010, not HAARP :P)

[MrMuseboy]

funny how dom just plays this whole song perfectly with a broken bass drum !

[MrMuseboy]

6:12 epic scream

[kie1991]

Intro is theme to Once Upon a Time in the West, "Man with Harmonica"!

[promathia1]

best performance on all songs period. they deserve to have a break and keep making the album. dont rush it like you did Resistance . please please pleeease make something like Absolution again though

[tdrider2008]

@promathia1 The Resistance was hardly rushed, It was the longest gap they had between albums. Plus they were recording for about 7 months after they had written the songs. Also if you know Muse at all you know that they never repeat an album. The difference between a Good band and a Great one is the ability to not just rehash the same genre and songs like previous albums.

[ghostfish94]

LOL the crawler says "Nights of cydonia"

[xjimdim]

listen to the crowd!! we were amazing that night :D

[wongpaksum]

i really got an orgasm during listening to the song!

[MrNesk04]

Best Knights of Cydonia ever?

[lfcDEANOstfc]

being in the crowd at this i actually had tears in my eyes, it was that fucking good

[TheGodsgonk]

shame bbc 3 couldnt show all of the setlist. it was the best moment of my life by far. and until i see muse again, it will remain the best.

[peoplesfrontofjudea]

*dropped jaw* That is all.

[eddywalton10]

I was listening to Muse last night and Aliens came into my room and said "wow, you listen to Muse on earth too?"

[MegaEBoy]

@eddywalton10 I knew there was something odd about Chris!!! And Matt and Doms out of this world playing!!!

[1814Man]

First vid I've seen with Chris playing harmonica

[Ed8Lee]

heavy goosebumps watching this.... it was unbelievably epic being there.

Muse, i thank you.

[RigelKitty]

Jeez, I had no friggin idea how many people there actually were until I saw this. That's a fucking human sea or something. It felt so good to be there, it just hurts to watch it again and miss that night so badly!

[Kairac112]

2:29 NIGHTS OF CYDONIA?! WTF IS THIS SOAP OPERA?! Shame on you, Television...

[Mad93Cracker]

best band of the weeked by far bring on 2012

[BiiGGziiE]

I'm gonna be honest- I kinda hate myself for letting my friends drag me to 2manydjs!

[blokey8]

While Dom's talking, Matt's kinda frozen in that weird pose with a look that says "Jesus, did we just do that?" :D

[liamfountain1994]

this makes me ejaculate

[stuiyboi]

oh god i miss this so much

[maidenfanmartin]

thumbs up if you watched this on BBC red button

[alfishipp]

@maidenfanmartin red button fwend

[Jirado]

@yarhal I should've brought a bigger flag :P

[sneakyrussian1000]

the harmonica is better than the original introduction

[Holbourn08]

More than likely the highlight of life

[yarhal]

5:36

Israel Flag- Cause no one's gonna take us ALIVE!

[RealStunningStuff]

Matt Bellamy is my GOD

MUSE IS MY RELIGION

[vertinoes]

do anyone or just me like the riff at 5:15

[whitesebi]

@vertinoes you're definitely the only person who likes that riff.

...

[LiamGabbitas1]

Shivers......

[Warcraft20101]

normally you see massive crowds jump and sing in countries like mexico and argentina and man does it look great.

My jaw dropped tothe floor here that the reading crowd is nothing less.. maybe even more then that :D

Thumbs up for an amazing performance and an amazing crowd :)

[lankygit101]

I came buckets during this performance.

The guy who was in front of me, if you ever read this, I'm sorry.

[Hodrid]

omg

[jeromeefy]

i watch this before i leave the house to ensure that my day is destined to be a good one

[TheFatninjakid]

pornhub should have a 'Muse' section

[twimatt]

@TheFatninjakid Be careful what you wish for. museslash . livejournal . com

[promathia1]

wow when matt is next to the speaker in the beginning and it sounds like a battery or car is dying. made shivers go down my spine

[94mcliam]

6:15 = FUCKING CROWD ERUPTION! So glad i was a part of it XD

[puredruid]

@94mcliam Loved how people were still singing the solo when everyone was waddling, trying to get out xD

[craigvaukins]

i was watching pete doherty on the festival republic at this point .....as always a great weekend

[CE04Elisabeth]

The crowd screaming the solo is almost louder than Matt actually PLAYING the solo. Insane!

[cpfundstein]

No citizen erased in the setlist... what a shame =/

[koeimaster]

@cpfundstein They did play it, but Muse didn't want BBC to show all of the songs from OoS, so you won't find it really (You may find it recorded of phones etc.) The only songs they showed from OoS were New Born, Bliss and Plug in Baby.

[MrJordanbailey95]

@cpfundstein it was played

[bbgMickey]

daaaadadadaaa dadadaaadadadaaa....

[hexagramz]

haha me head-banding 7:40 win! ;D

[LOLZARKID]

[LightUpMediaUK]

Crowd eruption 6:13!

[30mistake30]

@LightUpMediaUK Best thing EVER! XD

[Rieul31]

OMG ! That finish !! from 8:00 to 8:45

[london6809]

[puredruid]

Awww man I knew this moment would come, I was all hyped up to see them and now this... wondering when i'll see them next :(

[Darkalex18]

I love this song! "Nights of Cydonia"

LOL

[leonidassbr]

EPIC!

[devonp29]

best day of my life.

[gulidor]

6:16 Is that a foot?

[MimmiBie]

Most awesome part of the song is defititely the COME ON READING part XD Was standing next to a bunch of hard core musers and we all shouted it along with him at the top of our lungs, because we knew it was coming. It was fucking amazing.

[MimmiBie]

We guys were fucking amazing. All of us.

[biggsey150]

6.14. COME ON READINGGGGG!!!

[Blindshooting]

Reading 2006 BBC Named butterflies and hurricanes as "Bliss"

Reading 2011 BBC Named it "Nights of Cydonia"

Someone just fire the guy who does the song names.

[Asthiagosilva3]

Epic performance, something of inbelievable :O

[ladys45]

"NIGHTS of cydonia". lol wtf BBC???

[pozzetto86]

[97AVIATOR]

matt being a pain from 1:10 to 1:22 :D

[PatrickRU92]

This was an amazing show, those who were there were lucky. Think this is the first time I've ever seen Chris not use the Rickenbacker for Knights

[TheRaider0fTombs]

what the hell is Nights of Cydonia?

[hughjazz2008]

This is probably the best Knights of Cydonia since Reading 2006

[titoufou17]

@hughjazz2008 I prefer the v festival version but this one is great !

[mrfanlogan]

when muse started i had some stupid fat kid screaming for help because he was getting crushed. WHY DID YOU COME TO THE FRONT!!!!

[imthebestatpool]

I WANNNNA GO BACK TOOO!!

[barokokable]

miss this song...

:D

[MrNesk04]

OH MY DOM.

[MrACBest]

They missed the bit where he started to destroy the drums.

[MrGeewiz1]

@MrACBest That was at the end of stockholm Syndrome, not Knights Of Cydonia

[cwscpfc]

Fifteenth time seeing them. First half- great. Second half- urgh. Just urgh. Dull.

[stephanie231994]

@cwscpfc The moment when you started saying Muse was dull, your life as a Muse fan ended.

[cwscpfc]

@stephanie231994 Yep, probably. I've seen them at their best so I'll remember them from that, not from performances like this.

[andrea8286]

Gods !!

Incredible

[kruszynkaa222]

Pure awesomeness ;) I wish I was there !!!!!

[444jsm]
