Muse Interviews

Remember that interview where Matt stops to smell his foot? How about the one where he professes that he would be the first one in the queue to get tickets if Rage Against the Machine ever got back together? Well fear not! We are here to bring all those wonderful (and crazy) interviews to you with anecdotal notes so you know which interview is which!

This project is just beginning, so please be patient as we start working on it.

Any questions or contributions, please send an email to darkshines65@gmail.com. MuseWiki contributors can leave me a message on my User Page- Mnero

Cheers!
