It just gets better!

Thank you for introducing this beauty into my life.

He's slowing transitioning away from guitar. One day, Plug in Baby will be played purely on a keyboard
-
Crowd definitely looks calmer than the SBE

When your catalogue is all shit balance is pretty easy though.

This is so weird btw. Metallica is a great example of balancing old and new stuff, plus giving no shits about crowd reactions. If one of the biggest bands in the world do that and sell out every damn gig, I'm pretty sure bands like Muse, who are massive as well, could do it.
Aye, Muse could learn a thing or two about setlist balance from Metallica!
-
Sometimes, I can't decide if Matt is being self-deprecating or genuinely seems surprised that their fans prefer something like Showbiz to Madness, Resistance etc.
Probably a little from both columns.
I've seen it happen with other bands. They'll have a few shows where crowds won't react to their older songs so they start taking them out of the setlist

'It's a good tune' - Matt Bellamy, 2018
-
he sounds like he doesn't wanna play this at all.
You should of heard Eternally Missed!
-
Is it just my stream or is the mix completely atrocious? Matt's vocal is almost inaudible in the louder bits
That's the case during the chorus. But then it doesn't really look like he's trying to sing loudly :/
-
Thorough impressed with the live version of Thought Contagion!
-
Afaik, Munich Jam wasn't played as fast ever during Drones tour. This year in the U.S. they have been playing it a bit faster, but not as fast as SBE gig
They probably didn't have the in ear's going 'Munich Jam' with the beat. Chris was obviously high on the gig, I've not seen him head bang like that in a long time!
-
Ha, on the Absolution IEM Matt says "Oh sorry it's 'nowhere left to hide'" super fast before seamlessly going into the next line. I missed that on the night and in subsequent watchings of the recordings.
Yeah that was funny at the time! He recovered really well and fast from it!
-
Jeez, what a fricken show!
Showed up just before 11am to queue for the seating, and met some awesome people in the line. Came closest to meeting Chris, before they changed the alley barriers, but he went for the stage door when he was close to it.
I can't believe that show. The atmosphere, the sound, the performance. I've seen Hysteria, PiB and Knights so many times, but not in a venue like that. The intimacy and intensity of those songs, as well as the other songs, live was incredible.
This is before you get on to SFA, Showbiz, Glorious and Easily. SFA being my favourite song, tears were shed. I had my doubts as to whether it would make top 10. The response and crowd singing for Showbiz really pushed the performance higher than it was.
My only disappointment was Fury. I voted for it but it didn't fill me with the same energy that the others did.
Best gig ever, from any band I've seen.
-
I'm seating but I'm still showing up tomorrow morning for a good seat. Needs must!
-
Going to aim to get in line at around 9am. I'll probably be playing Pokemon for most of the day xD
-
Matt's vocals during S4A will be interesting.
"Siiing for abso- *big breath* -luuuution
Ah-wehl *breath* be singin'
Faaalling from your *big breath* ....graaaaa- *move away from mic*
...oooo"
That would be one way to break my heart, the ruining of a long waited moment.
-
Still haven't voted yet. Thinking that it should be a mix between personal picks and what's doing well, so this is what it's at currently
Muscle Museum
Space Dementia
Butterflies & Hurricanes
Futurism
Easily
Assassin
Exo-Politics
City of Delusion
Showbiz
Can't really decide what to do with the last slot. I've had Dead star three times but it's one of my favourite songs ever so it feels tempting despite being a 'wasted vote'...
Do you have a moment for our lord and saviors, 'Sing For Absolution' and 'Glorious'?
-
I got my reply email asking for my new selection of 10. They completely ignored my question regarding a full reset for everyone. I imagine I'll only make a couple of changes.
-
Tbf nowhere near the entire discog is there, it's actually only a relatively small number of extra songs that have been added. Some big ones like COD, Cave, Exogenesis, TSP, Space D, Darkshines and Glorious that'll make a lot of people wanna revote though, yeah.
Yeah, what I meant to say was that the added songs gets it closer to being the entire discography
-
So. Is the common consensus that most people will re-vote?
Very much so. We all had planned lists based on the entire discography, and had to change them when the shortened voting list was released.
-
Gives them time to add In Your World to the list, just saying.
Yeah I'll definitely be waiting, even if only for that song!

Very happy with that ending
