    Speculation on future gigs/tours

    in Tours

    Posted

    I'm guessing that they won't get any more expensive over here. It was $130 last time, and even Coldplay (who are obviously more popular than Muse) are in the $120-140 price range when they tour here (IIRC). Radiohead are also somewhere around there. I can't speak for England though.

    Frankly, they don't need to play all the hits at every gig. There are loads of songs that are practically exactly the same in terms of being a singalong, or using balloons, clapping along etc. Basically I'd be okay if they did these rotations on the next tour (just examples, cba writing them all down):

     

    Bliss - Plug In Baby (balloons, singing along etc)

    Resistance - Starlight (both are equally uninteresting and fill the same purpose)

    Map of the Problematique - MK Ultra (Works well enough)

    New Born - Unnatural Selection (Obvious. Only if Matt plays the intro though, and they play it slightly faster, otherwise New Born can go die in a fire)

    TIRO - Hysteria (Also fairly obvious)

    Agreed except just drop Resistance, doesn't have anything going for it live. Starlight is actually a bit better. I don't dislike hearing any of their regularly played hits (except to some extent Resistance), but they're all* just...there. Even Hysteria - the bass intro was great, same with the solo, but the rest of the song I barely remember. Maybe I've heard them on YT too many times. But I definitely agree, they really can swap around a lot of these.

     

    *well not motp and some others

    Plug in Baby

    Hysteria

    Stockholm Syndrome (next song on the way out)

    Time is Running Out

    Starlight

    Supermassive Black Hole

    Knights of Cydonia

    Uprising

    Resistance

    Undisclosed Desires

     

    I'm sure all of those will be played next tour; unless UD or Resistance "does an Invincible" and is never played again! *hopes*

    Dom loves SS, I don't think it will be going soon. He does have some influence, whatever people here may say. :p

    Well if they do play Sonaphier next year this had better be on the set list;
    MK Ultra with School outro is amazing, it really finishes the song off perfectly, just what it needed :).

     

    P.S. I don't have a YouTube account so can't embed the video :(.

    Muse were great at those festivals. Love the scream in this :happy: And the performance of Bliss is ace

    And Unnatural Selection...why did they drop it? :'( This is the best performance I've seen of it, simply immense. I loved Newborn when I saw it but I can now see Dee's point that it would be a much better live song.

    Most Underrated Song?

    HTAILY is good (though I haven't listened to it in a while, probably should do that again soon), however I will say that it is probably their worst closer by a pretty wide margin.

    Indeed. Megalomania, however, is underrated and their best closer by a pretty wide margin. Even though it feels odd after Feeling Good.
