"Muse are in our hearts"
While Matt started playing House of the Rising Sun (instrumental), Dom noticed that the fans on the tribunes covered themselves with white and blue sheets of paper, altogether growing into a giant phrase which said "Muse is in our hearts". The whole band liked it so much, that they even took a picture of themselves using Matt's iphone with the stadium and the giant message the fans created in the background. Dom mentioned that he would put it on twitter, which he indeed did within an hour after the gig.
