Last night Clare and I went to see Muse play Wembley. Arriving just as 'My Chemical Romance' finished their last song (perfect timing!) we waited we waited for Muse, whilst admiring the stadium's civil engineering, listening to Pendulum on the sound system (a good omen). With a dramatic opening, straight into 'Knights of Cydonia', they delivered a two hour set of their usual heavy riffs, over the top guitar solos and rock showmanship. With a light show which became progressively more jaw dropping, including ballerinas suspended from large helium balloons, swivelling satellite dishes and plenty of fire and smoke, we weren't disappointed. Such performances surely secure Muse as the greatest band in the UK/World/Universe? I think they are pretty good anyway.
