Yeah I saw Muse on "Later... With Jules Holland" recently and I was a little surprised. Chris wasn't much to watch and as a result they barely cut over to him. The sound was bad too but that show is inconsistent with that a lot of the time. |

He has a program on his home computer that tracks mentions of his name on Talkbass, and it automatically pages him every time the number of mentions passes a thousand. |

I was stood right in front of him on the saturday, and he gave one big grin in the performance, just as he was playing TIRO. Reckon that song...erm...pleases him? |

Atypical, not a typical... | | Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Carlisle, PA | | | I t is called professonalism. He plays the same way in front of 200 people (I have seen that) and 20,000 people (I have seen that).
FWIW... 10% of what they make is enough for me.... And what is with all the bashing of a great player of our time. He may not be the best at everything, but he is a heavy effects user, and is a great bass player when it comes to speed, and ability.
Just because he doesn't smile on stage?????
I hope none of you every see me play. |

You've got to hand it to him though; the man gets into his music. He had a doctor's order to stop headbanging for a few months back in 06 just because of the collective whiplash he'd accumulated.
