 CordMag Interview - Chris Wolstenholme of Muse.
Wolstenholme sat down in Vancouver before the last show on that leg of their tour to give me the goods on what they’ve been up to and why they’re only just now really forging into the American market.
Wolstenholme tests the squishy and deep seats in the green room with a surprised chuckle before he begins talking about the tour.
Wolstenholme likes being able to see what the fans are up to on the board, but admits that with his limited time, and with the huge amount of content on the board, it’s a little bit difficult.

   '' The Chris Wolstenholme Fanlisting ''         (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Playing together as a band since 1994, childhood friends Matt Bellamy, Dominic Howard and Wolstenholme left the Devon countryside and earned a reputation for their energetic live performances with music that could best be described as grandiose rock, mixing orchestral arrangements with supercharged guitar riffs.
With the anti-Iraq war protests that filled London’s streets in 2003 as a backdrop for the Absolution recording sessions, the album took on a decidedly darker tone, focusing on topics such as death and the end of the world.
While Wolstenholme explains that the response from North American fans for Absolution has been positive thus far, he remembers that the band’s label was less than supportive of the idea of releasing Stockholm Syndrome, the first single from Absolution, as a free download off their website.

And while Muse traditionally shun the trappings of showbiz, bass player Chris Wolstenholme told MTV that this is an award they wouldn't mind winning.
But Wolstenholme admitted that the album's success could count against their chances: "Although saying that, you do win a cash prize so even though we'd love to get it, maybe it's fairer if it does go to a smaller act - we don't need the cash that badly right now."
