    Simulation Theory tour discussion

    I didn't say that. I said that it's lazy to pull out a generic setlist in one country and never change it. I didn't say they don't put in physical effort or emotion. If I thought that, I'd quit going to gigs. It's just that, for whatever reason, the setlists here are 99% predictable, which is not a good thing for a band that has been around as long as they have. There is definitely a lack of...something...going on here.

    And his point is that since Muse aren't lazy in nearly any other regard as a live band, the lack of variety probably isn't due to laziness. It's not laziness that makes them rehearse a rarity to play for a couple of gigs in Europe or Asia and then drop it in the US. That's not how it works.

     

    This "whatever reason" has been explained by Muse themselves several times. Trust me I think it's really stupid of them, but it's certainly not laziness. Matt has even complained after gigs in the US because they only react to the pop hits. What you said originally was that people wouldn't "stand there with their hands in their pockets because a song they don't recognize is being played", but that's exactly what the majority of the audience has done whenever a rarity has been played.

     

     

    We will not get any of those four at any US arena shows. I'd bet on that.
    Probably not, no.

    Quickly done without too much thought:

    1. Origin of Symmetry/Absolution

    3. Black Holes & Revelations

    4. Showbiz/The Resistance/Simulation Theory

    7. The 2nd Law

    8. Drones

    Fine.

    The reason he feels like he can do it now is probably because it’s almost the only A4 belt he has to do for the entire gig. Back in 2012 there was Madness with the proper ending, Survival with both A4 and Bb4, Supremacy with G#4 and A4, Panic Station with A4 and Follow Me with loads of G#4.
