Muse are too boring hence why they couldn't handle more than 10 songs in the poll, I would never see them again because of woeful LP's and predictable set lists, I can't even recall listening to anything after the Resistance because it was so suite.
They could have done this gig much better but they couldn't resist playing 4 song's they have rinsed like my washing machine, 18 song set list, they are old
I'm just glad the money went to Passage
quoting the above as evidence that muse will never make everyone happy. it's impossible, they can't do anything right in the eyes of some.
you should have made this decision back in 2013 so that your ticket to this gig could have gone to someone that gave a shit.

It'd never hit me like that before but the collective atmosphere of the fans finally seeing it live after 11 years of asking, it actually sounding amazing and Dom's ludicrously happy face all tipped me over the edge.
That's it -- they just looked so pleased and happy. Do they not get it? They could feel like that again - and get that reaction again. Several times even. And I mean in general with these songs, not just Glorious. You'd think they would feed off it like a drug but I guess not?
-
I really want to start a campaign to get them to play a couple rarities at this gig. Showbiz, Glorious, Easily would be the 3 I'd go for -- of course one of the three would be a huge victory.
Imagine the atmosphere/beauty of Red Rocks and the band playing Glorious. I think I would die.

Ok, got back home last night and just got done reading through the last 30 or so pages of this thread!
Best gig of my life, nothing even comes close. Setlist-wise it was beyond my expectations - they only missed 2 of the 10 I voted for.
My friends and I were way too early and first in the seated queue - we had 2nd level and I am really short so I had to guarantee myself first row. The view was amazing. and I am so glad I wasn't on the floor -- I knew it would be rough and didn't want anything to distract from soaking in the gig as much as possible. The friend I transferred my stalls ticket to ended up on the barrier in front of Chris, so that worked out well!
I made a playlist of my videos - I saw a few linked earlier. The quality varies but some of them are really good
So psyched they opened with Assassin/Dead Star. God everything just sounded so, so good. Easily blew me away. I didn't vote for it, I actually wasn't a huge fan but my god, it sounded amazing and it's totally one of my favorites now. Who was it on here that said it kills Resistance and should be played instead -- my wish X1000. Glorious was the highlight, never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd hear it played live. It's one of my fav songs ever and I cried like a baby through it and prob looked like a crazy person but sorry, not sorry.
And to finally hear Showbiz! I figured this was at least the one song that was a lock, so I kind of expected it, but WOW. Even Matt's vocals sounded good and I'd give anything for them to actually keep it around but I am not getting my hopes up.
B&H/New Born -- these are still rare for me and I loved hearing them.
S4A was the biggest surprise. I voted for it and didn't think it had a chance. Another dream come true.
Was kind of expecting them to close with Stockholm so when MWAH started I was like....noooo...but it's OK. I can't really complain after a show like that.
Walking out it felt like a dream. I am so glad I recorded so much of it, otherwise I would feel like it didn't happen. I was really emotional afterwards and it's been a while since a Muse gig had made me feel that way. I loved them for coming through on their promise, and giving us exactly what we had been wanting for so long. But I was also sad. Knowing the potential -- and seeing how happy and into it they were, yet knowing that they won't keep doing it. And even worse -- that they will come back here to the US and go back to the trash they've been playing. It is what it is, though.
We saw the guys when they arrived Sat afternoon and that was a treat as well. Dom was in the best mood I've ever seen him with fans
When Matt came through, some guy behind me told him he voted for SMBH and would they play it. Good for Matt for being like "um, no it wasn't voted on.." Anyway I still can't really wrap my head around it all. Saturday was pretty much one of the best days of my life all around.
-
Don't forget "Ah-wehl be singin'" in some cringy falsetto.
I am dying to hear SFA but I don't want to hear a shit version. If they can't do it (or anything else in the top 10) then I would hope they switch it out with something.
Of course that means something rare, not use it as an excuse to throw in an easy staple.

Falling Away With You on both lists
fixed
-
If you're on the front row (I'll be getting there early enough to):
is that from the 2nd level or the 3rd?
-
I never got one of the emails asking for a new selection, so I finally just sent them one today with my new choices. So, this is my final vote:
1. Showbiz
2. Sing for Absolution
3. Micro Cuts
4. Fury
5. Invincible
6. Muscle Museum
7. Eternally Missed
8. Glorious
9. City of Delusion
10. Futurism

Updated poll in an fb group
Omg that first list you posted. I hope the real results so far look like that...my god. I wouldn't even know what to do with myself
-
Refund? I'm pretty sure you could sue, dude. That'd be outright false advertising.
All they'd have to do is say it was due to technical issues, something beyond their control, they didn't have enough time to resolve it before the date. It would prob fly here in the States. Maybe the UK actually enforces laws, that would be great.
-
They're not going to scrap it, ffs, everyone's already paid. There's a chance they'll lie about the poll winners, but that's existed since the inception of the idea.
It's not like paying for a ticket gets you exactly what they billed (a request gig). We can't get a refund if they don't do it. They can do what they want - yeah, lying about the poll winners has always been a possibility. If things worked logically, they would realize this mess is because they chose a shitty company and not use them in the future. Unfortunately with Muse, that's not how things always work.
If people are telling Muse that the polling site isn't working properly and their response is "wow lets not do request sets again", then that's on them. Are we really gonna avoid telling Muse their promised gig isn't gonna turn out as promised because we're scared it's gonna upset them?*shrug* I'm not going to, I just don't feel a need to add to the pile. If other people doing it solves the problem, then that's great.
-
Is it really necessary to harass the band over this and try to get them to do anything? That will make this whole idea look dumb and probably make them regret doing it at all. They will never do it again, or worse yet, decide to just scrap it all together, then everyone is fucked.
Obviously I understand people wanting songs that weren't on the original list --hell, Glorious is my #1 wanted song -- but I can't see the numbers being that much different -- if somebody cared enough to vote on day 1 and be upset that a particular song was missing, then they will care enough to send an email to correct it.
-
People think 78 pounds is a lot? What is that like 120 USD estimating? It's possibly going to be zepp 2 get the fuck out of here. pit tickets for these outdoor NA shows are 2-300 bucks for garbage sets in comparison.
I'd pay 500 bucks plus travel with zero hesitations if this was going on in my country to see a Zepp level setlist.
Sigh. Don't remind me. I try not to think about the $$$ these tix cost when we get these shit setlists over here.
-
I guess the whole thing was never released as one track so maybe that's why they just used the first?
Either way, I'm not sure Shepherd's Bush is the right gig for full Exo tbh.
Have to agree with this. As much as I'd love to hear it live, it just seems like it would be out of place at this gig.
-
Whatever happens, I don't want them to reveal the results or the setlist before the show. I want to be totally surprised.
If they keep it secret and decide to not actually play stuff we voted for, then well, there's not much we can do. The bright side to this is that if the voting ends up being horribly stupid, maybe they will just play something comparable to zepp or whatever and call it a night.
At least for now it seems that Showbiz and MM have a decent chance of being played and Eternally Missed is really high on the FB poll. I think they'll do what's right. I WANT TO BELIEVE.
this latest plot twist is making me consider canceling my refundable flight to london.Nah....don't do that. I'm about to book my non-refundable ticket right now, so oh well! I think it will be worth it
-
I don't really understand why people would tweet at him. On our luck, notifying him of the mistake will just give him an excuse to scrap the whole thing.
The company said they would fix it, why is everyone so nervous still? It's not like the original votes were horrible! It will be OK (says one of the biggest Muse pessimists/worriers ever)
-
I'm in two minds of re-voting again, come to think of it.
Either I cast my vote again with the list as it currently stands and all will be well, or I'll vote and the set list will be updated again, then I'll be mega annoyed again. I don't know what to do
Ha, yeah that's the other issue. Maybe somebody should email and ask if this is the FINAL list or do they still plan to add more?
-
Fair enough but plenty of people have picked very similar songs to me without being criticised or having their choices described as 'stupid' or 'my worst fear'. If anyone feels my choices would ruin their night then I'm sorry but it's a democratic vote so if it is 90% 'hardcore' fans you've got nothing to worry about anyway.
I said "fear," not "worst fear" and only applied it to part of your list. And I have criticized those songs both here and elsewhere online. You should be happy -- many of your choices will end up being played for sure!
I'm sorry to say it guys but honestly, you are better off leaving your vote as it is. All this is gonna do is scatter the results and will make for a very unreliable top10, possibly including the hits.I was wondering this too. We were pretty happy with the way the voting was going, and now the votes will be spread more thin since more rarities are available, leaving a higher probability of the not-so-rares floating to the top.
-
Omg are you freaking kidding. This is BS. They need to start over then. Probably a ton of people (including me a few hours ago) have voted already.
-
I Have 6 definite's so far and about 20 maybe's. I've got to the point of listing every song i've seen live since my first Muse gig in 07 to try and make sure I only pick songs I haven't seen.
I'm 100% going for
Showbiz
Muscle Museum
Assasin
Dead Star
Futurism
Hyper Music
I think my remaining 4 choices will be from the B Sides.
Lot of people seem to be going for Easily
don't forget Eternally Missed!!!
-
Tbf I think most people reading that list thought the same, but as we've lost some of our more "vocal" members in recent months for not playing nicely, no one really bothered to say anything.
Oops, sorry! I don't mean to be harsh. I'm just super stressed over this, this is prob the one chance I have to hear rarities.
Considering he's never seen them the list is fair I think. If everyone who'd not seen them had a similar list that would be great.Yeah that's true.
-
Honestly I wish we could vote multiple times for songs as long as it added up to 10. If we were allowed to do that, I think we'd easily get 5 or so super rare songs.
I want to vote today but I have one lingering decision. Which out of Fury or Assassin is doing better so far? Whichever one looks like a lock is the one I'd rather give my vote to.
-
Hi all. Long time lurker but first time poster. Bought my first Muse CD in 1999 and yet somehow never managed to get to a gig before this one so really excited for this one. My list below;
Stockholm Syndrome
Map Of The Problematique
Bliss
Butterflies and Hurricanes
Muscle Museum
Citizen Erased
Assassin
Micro Cuts
Showbiz
Dead Star
Bit disappointed Space Dementia and Dark Shines are missing from the list.
Welcome! I hate to say it but half your list is basically my fear. Map and Bliss they routinely play. CE not as routine, but not super rare anymore. SS they will probably play anyway. People voting for these songs will push real rarities out of the top 10. Just IMO ofc
-
I'm not going to vote yet but this looks like my new list:
Showbiz
SfA
Micro Cuts
Fury
Invincible
MM
Exo-politics
Eternally Missed
Futurism
Map of Your Head
When Matt came through, some guy behind me told him he voted for SMBH and would they play it. Good for Matt for being like "um, no it wasn't voted on.."

Ok so I'm trying to organize something to help the chances of some rarities at this gig. Basically I want to make a short video scrolling through photos of fans holding up signs asking for songs, and eventually tweet it to the band. We're focusing on a pool of 3-4 songs that were played at the SBE gig to increase the chances.
The details are in a post on FB in what I think is a private event group linked to one of the Muse NA tour groups. I hardly use FB so idk how to invite people. If anyone is interested in participating or wants more info, message me!!
