Live: Muse at the O2



Muse return to the Point, now named the O2, of course. This time it's to promote their new album The Resistance.

They haven't said much about the album but Dom posted this on his MySpace last week:

Hi,

Yes, The Resistance is on it’s way. Out in a few months hopefully. We’ve just started mixing some tracks and it sounds wicked. Still got a bit more work to do but its coming along nicely.
See you guys soon..

Dom.

Tickets priced €54.80 (Standing) and €59.80 (Seated) including booking fee are on sale tomorrow morning at 9.

Album News: Big Star - Keep an Eye on the Sky Boxset



Big Star are one of those essential bands. Like the Beatles or the Stones, except not as well known, but just as good, or maybe even better. Number 1 Record or whatever you want to call it is a classic, no matter who you ask. And now they're doing a Neil Young and raiding their archives.

Keep an Eye on the Sky is a four disc boxset due for release on September 15th. It's filled with rarities and unreleased tunes. You can stream the previously unreleased 'Lovely Day' here:
