Bellamy & Tom Morello
I was waiting for this to happen! :D Tom Morello not only supported Muse on their recent run of UK stadium dates, but he finally joined Matt onstage for the last gig at Manchester 6/8:
"Thank you Manchester!! What a great end to the U.K. tour. Jamming with @tommorello was a blast! We’ve had such a great time in the U.K. we wanna come back for more. Stay tuned for a major announcement about UK shows on Monday June 10th.... # BreakItToMe"

Morello played the "Break It To Me" solo (such an obviously RATM inspired track so how perfect) and then did his own epic solo to finish it off. Bellamy manically dancing about like a thrilled little kid getting to play with his idol was the best part. I mean he even commented on the post:
"Best birthday present ever!"
Because for him, you know it was. :3
Here's the whole song:
He also gave Morello this beautiful "Power to the People" guitar:

"@tommorello has been a huge inspiration to me growing up, a guitar legend. Proud to be able to give him a guitar I had made inspired by his playing and his message. Thanks for joining us on this UK tour, it’s been a blast!"
Morello wrote:
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY to @mattbellamy who on the eve of HIS birthday gave ME this awesome # PowerToThePeople @mansonguitarworks guitar! Incredible. Thanks buddy for everything and have a great one!"

Bonus:
Tom Morello: "Opening for MUSE, the audience has been pretty great. I've been a fan of theirs for a very, very long time and they've opened up for RAGE a few times in the past, so we have a very long history. The fact in 2019 that there's a rock band like MUSE with an electric guitar player, playing stadiums, that in of itself, I'm happy to see that."

In other Muse news, Bellamy posted this today:
"Had a great time on the U.K. tour. Meeting some of audience in at London Stadium. Glad we’re coming back for more! O2 likely to be filmed (this show better captured with indoor lighting I reckon)."

Still waiting on that Drones World Tour DVD, but I'm so excited to see a film of this tour OMG YES. Quite possibly their greatest stage production ever. I just hope it'll be edited more like Roma than Drones... Also these newly announced O2 dates (Sept 14+15) will be 2.5 weeks and just a couple gigs before my Mexico City shows, so it'll be around the same time frame... making it a nice little souvenir for me too. :3

Random: According to www.distance.to, I'll be traveling 1428 miles to see Muse in Mexico City. Cool. Most I'll have ever traveled.
