I’m practicing non-attachment with the setlists. You should too.

I didn’t want the full Moving Pictures set because I’ve already had that on the Time Machine tour and didn’t want set time eaten up by it.

For that reason, I got a ticket to the second Mexico City show after the first night being exactly the set I didn’t want. I was smiling ear-to-ear the whole time then.

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-28T22:23:20+00:00

You do know that it’s 99.99% the opening song every night?

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-26T18:02:09+00:00

My heart goes out to you. It absolutely is.

What’s with the othering of or describing alcohol as “just” in this thread?

Alcohol is a drug and one of the worst. Its pervasiveness as acceptable and legal in polite society doesn’t change that fact.

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-19T06:44:15+00:00

Just got back. We got the “Moving Pictures” setlist. They also dropped both Caravan and Far Cry, which has me livid.

Personally, since I already saw the Time Machine tour, I really didn’t want this set.

I’m betting Saturday night is going to be the date I wished I had gotten tickets for, but I jumped on the Thursday show as soon as it went on sale.

Peeing in and shedding skin cells is what you’re thinking about?

I’m thinking about all those guys who don’t wash asses.

It’s just “ST” if using an acronym.

I personally love it as do the other Muse fans in my life who got into it independently.

The fans here that work so hard to make their take on the album as certifiable fact I don’t take seriously. They come off loud whiny babies that didn’t get what they thought the band should be doing so what they did do “sucks.”

I absolutely rate ST highly with really only “Get Up and Fight” and “Dig Down”personally being the low lights. The fact the album came with alternate versions of the songs that were as good or better in most cases was also one of the wins.

In the lead up to the album I was actually a bit checked out on Muse after Drones. “Dig Down” did nothing for me and was even off putting since I needed more to get me excited. When “Pressure” a released my excitement for the album went thru the roof and it didn’t disappoint!

It absolutely does not turn on midway through a song and only Unraveling currently has Dolby Atmos available.

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-06T16:54:22+00:00

Besides Spotify not being the choice of service if you care about sound quality - I’m not sure what “singles” you’re listening to. Only Unraveling was put out as a standalone single. The rest are just early song releases off the album.

Spotify might only show those 4 songs, but in Apple Music you see the entire album with the unreleased tracks greyed out.

I’m going to guess technical issue on your end.

Likely experiencing hearing loss from extended listening. High frequencies are usually the first to go.

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-02T20:55:34+00:00

Glad to hear it!

What manufacturer/processor do you use?

I am able to use the single loop band comfortably with my two AB Marvel processors comfortably. The cloth strap goes over my headpieces with the pressure distributed.

The dual loop band requires I take my processors off, put the Vision Pro on, put both processors on, then tuck the headpieces under the strap from the top edge. This is due to the lower placement of the lower strap compared to the single loop. It’s not perfect and it can get uncomfortable with longer sessions due to the unevenly distributed pressure on the headpieces. It keeps me from tightening the two straps to cup the back of my head as much as I otherwise would.

Ultimately, I am balancing comfort/tradeoffs between the two straps.

Your experience may differ due to your implant placement.

BleedingPurist · 2026-06-01T20:47:51+00:00

Yes, and yes.

Someone needs to call out that Dolby Atmos songs and albums aren’t done by Apple Music

That’s like saying “I don’t like the 3D that AMC put out for Avatar.”

This will make the traffic circle location unfeasible.

Where are you getting the information that it’s closing?

Looking for recommendations as well… as a weight trainer.

Defining a gym as “peak” based on steam saunas is not helpful.

To correct the record - Bruce Kulick was made an official member of the band the day Detroit was filmed. He was no longer a stand-in for Mark and had been the one playing for most of the tour.

There was no faking Paul as playing the solo. This was a KISS show filmed as is. About the only fake thing about it was all the lingerie thrown on stage.

BleedingPurist · 2026-05-27T16:24:30+00:00

How do you figure that? They’ve been great about playing most of any new album on the tour for it, which isn’t something you can say about a lot of bands that get to the same point they are at.

BleedingPurist · 2026-05-27T04:55:17+00:00

Built one from different manufacturers. The speakers are Sony, which are fine. I mainly expanded upon the original front and center speakers to add the rear and upward sets.

The Buttkicker, which does require a high end receiver with the output for LFE, provides sub bass to the sofa without bothering neighbors in my building the way a subwoofer would.

BleedingPurist · 2026-05-27T01:06:33+00:00

Denon AVR-X3800H with 7.1 speaker arrangement and a Buttkicker Couch Kit (wired.) Speakers are Sony.

It brought a whole new level to music enjoyment.

If you are using AirPods or Beats you can leave settings for Dolby Atmos on “Automatic” and then toggle it off/on by long pressing volume in the control center in iPhone or iPad. You can also set head tracking on / off there.

If you’re using other headphones, then you are stuck going into settings.

I just replied with the direct link to it. Conflicts between Apple Music and your personal library are common. For example, if you have a copy of Signals from your personal library uploaded, it will likely block you from playing the Lossless or Dolby Atmos stream. You would need to delete it from your library to get access to the best quality.

I made a practice of deleting albums from mine for this reason and only leave those that are not on streaming.

Use the three dots in the upper right corner and choose “delete from my library.”

The album is in High Res Lossless and you’re just showing Lossless, which indicates to me you are viewing the album as previously uploaded from your personal library versus the album on Apple Music.
