Violet Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 If Radiohead is gonna have a second week, and if U2 is getting one, I want Muse to have one, too. Therefore, I am making it so. I want to gather you beautiful Musers and make a week for them, because I know you guys are out there. I'll try my best to make sure it doesn't get in the way of the other weeks going on. So, is there anyone other than me willing to undertake this? If so, lemme know. Construction for Muse Week: Day 1: "Showbiz"-Carla Day 2: "Origin of Symmetry"-Marisa (In a telescope lens) Day 3: "Absolution"-Violet (violetsparks) Day 4: "Black Holes and Revelations"-Kelly (Hysteria) Day 5: "The Resistance"-Christina (Showbiz) Day 6: B-Sides Galore-OPEN Day 7: Live DVD/Festivals/Music Day-Violet (violetsparks) It'll probably take place sometime in mid-October. If you wish to participate, you can post in this thread or PM me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corkus Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I love Muse. I really do. That said, fuck no. This is exactly what I feared in the U2 thread. And heck, Muse doesn't even have enough albums to fill a week. EDIT: Disregard this post. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 See, I knew this was gonna happen. Every time I try to make a thread, it either gets bashed or it dies within 24 or 48 hours. Look, I wasn't necessarily trying to be a copycat, OK? I wasn't trying to be annoying and make 100 bajillion week threads, because that is just silly. I just wanted this one. You could have just ignored the thread and let it go away if you didn't want to mess with it, instead of using profanities to show me exactly how much you dislike it.

the_gloaming09 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I probably wouldn't participate much given I only know a few songs by them. But I might stop in a few threads to check them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to be offended, m'kay? ;) Tell ya what, since "Fuck no" was a bit harsh, I'll give you my reasons in a more civil manner, if you'd like: A) Clutter. One dedicated week for a band is okay, two is pushing it, and three or more gets excessive. B) Influence. The reason I think the Radiohead thread and potentially the U2 thread are okay is because of their influence. As awesome as Muse is, I don't think they've hit that influential point in their career. C) Like I said, they can't even fill a full week yet. In a few years, then sure, I'd be up for it. Don't think I'm gonna stop you from creating a Muse Week, but I can't say I'd be enthusiastic about the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudy_o Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Wait, you're up for it, Rudz? :cheesy: Yeah, but I'm not sure what all these WEEKS are all about. I just agreed with it because I love Muse, and I'm sure if I know how it works I think I would like to join. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In a telescope lens Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I'd totally be up for a Muse week :wacky: And Muse has 5 albums, so you could do a Monday-Friday thing :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 On second thought, I feel like a bit of an ass for posting what I did earlier. I've been bitter online in general lately. Apologies, just go ahead and do whatever you want. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 A) Not vaild. U2 Week is fine and all, but with their vast amount of discography, they're going to end up overtaking the WoM. As for Radiohead Week, it's been done before. Not that I mind it happening again, as I'm participating, but I don't know how in the world I'm going to top Bernard's take on HTTT. I honestly don't. B) I disagree, but that's probably the fangirl in me talking. I know that for me personally, Muse have influenced me greatly. People will argue about Radiohead, but the truth is, I didn't even know about them until after I joined the forum. C) I am working on that. :tongue: It may not even be a full week. It may be a Monday to Friday thing, which I certainly don't have a problem with. At any rate, I can't do Muse Week if there aren't enough people for it, and so far, it seems like maybe it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I think as long as we organize the weeks so they don't overlap it would be a fantastic idea. Muse is a really popular band on this forum and I think it would be successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdensestate Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 ^Yeah, what he said. Tbh I don't even like U2 and I'm up for U2 week as well. I don't like Muse that much but I'm up for this too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 See, I mentioned that in the first post. I want to work with whoever is organizing Radiohead Week and U2 Week and make sure they don't get crammed into each other. I know Sara is doing Radiohead Week. Isn't it howyousawtheworld doing U2 Week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 What about Beatles or Pink Floyd Week? :P I'd like to do those if I have time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnspieler1012 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 There's really nothing wrong with having dedicated weeks for all kinds of bands so long as enough people are interested in each band. Key is to space them out (maybe a month apart or whatever) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 yeah good idea chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdensestate Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 What about Beatles or Pink Floyd Week? :P I'd like to do those if I have time Beatles Week in particular would be ragingly popular here. They have like 3430498 albums though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 haha... then i'll do beatles week then! it'll work out great... 12 main albums, and then 2 albums for the singles (past masters vol 1&2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 OK, well, since Radiohead and U2 Week were there first, I'll let them figure out when they're doing their weeks, and I can use those dates to determine when Muse Week will happen. In the meantime, I'll make preparations for it by pairing people with albums, as well as studying HTTT in-depth for Radiohead Week. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In a telescope lens Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I really like this idea :wacky::wacky: Oh heyyyyy, Marisa. You just got through saying what I wanted to say. Great minds think alike :D I think as long as we organize the weeks so they don't overlap it would be a fantastic idea. Muse is a really popular band on this forum and I think it would be successful. THIS Beatles Week in particular would be ragingly popular here. They have like 3430498 albums though. Agreed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
