  1. I've listened to it a few times and it still literally sounds like Starlight to me (with different vocals). I know Muse releasing a new song that sounds like an existing song isn't exactly unheard of, but I can't see this being any more than a novelty Halloween-themed performance of Starlight. (maybe a couple other songs too)

     

    Just trying to keep my expectations low here

    Fury

    Unnatural Selection

     

    Oh, Nina is Hoodoo? I assumed it was Feeling Good (obvs not a 'working title' as such but maybe a code name the band used at some point).

     

    Finn's setlist has gone way over my head though...

  3. ***The Unknown***

    The British Empire

    Hex

    Get A Grip

    Billions Of Digits Carved Into Tablets Of Crystal + riffs

     

    I see what you did there. For some reason this looks like it could be a setlist of a prog-metal band or something :p

     

    Wouldn't 'Hex' make a better closer than 'Billions of Digits...' though?

     

    Also where did The British Empire come from? Musewiki says it's a working title for The Globalist but I can't remember ever hearing that name used during leadup to Drones.

  4. If they pull some last minute surprise out I really hope its after November, otherwise getting to the UK from Germany at an affordable price will be impossible for me.

     

    Same. Everyone seems to be touring end of November/start of December so I'd be grateful if they could leave it until after then, pretty please :LOL:

  5. Alphabetic:

     

    1. Agitated
    2. Assassin

      ---
    15. Showbiz
    16. Stockholm Syndrome
    17. Take a Bow

  6. Using only songs from the last 3 albums:

     

    [We Are The Universe]

    1. Uprising

    2. Reapers

    3. The Handler

    4. MK Ultra

    5. Resistance

    6. United States of Eurasia

    7. Redemption

    8. Animals

    9. Defector

    10. Follow Me

    11. Revolt

    12. Madness

    13. Liquid State

    14. Unnatural Selection

    15. Survival

     

    16. Overture

    17. Supremacy

    18. The Globalist

     

    I'd swap Survival with TG, replace Madness with Dead Inside and put Cross-Pollination somewhere and I'd actually really like that.

  7. I find it funny that Micro Cuts, one of their most vocally demanding songs (for Matt anyway) seems to have one of the smallest vocal ranges :LOL: Never thought about it that way before.

     

    edit: Also out of interest, where would City of Delusion fit into that?

  8. I also think The Globalist is going to be something people will miss after they stop playing it.

     

    I can't see myself missing it much. It was nice with the visuals and the flying Dildrone and such, but I can't see it working that well outside of the Drones tour context. Plus the fact that its absence will free up at least 2 slots for songs that drag on slightly less.

    New Born (Download)

    Knights of Cydonia (O2)

    Take a Bow (Riga)

     

    (Did 3 from each gig because I've only been to 6 so far)

     

    This would actually be pretty close to my perfect setlist tbh. Pretty pleased to have seen all these songs.

  10. We all know the best live songs get dropped and the worst stay, so I'm guessing the only ones staying for next tour will be DI, maybe Psycho and maybe Mercy. (though none of those are terrible live tbh). Reapers, Handler and Globalist will almost certainly be gone. They'll still probably find a way to fit Drill Sergeant, JFK and Drones into the set though.

  11. Did Biffy actually play every single song or did some get left out ?

     

    There were a few that got left out. I think it went something like this:

     

    Night 1: 11/12 from Blackened Sky, 11/13 from Puzzle (plus hidden tracks), 6 b-sides

    Night 2: 10/13 from TVOB, 11/12 from Only Revolutions (the b-side version of The Captain was played instead of the album version), 6 b-sides

    Night 3: 8/13 from Infinity Land, 12/20 from Opposites, 7 b-sides

  12. That's an interesting idea, and interesting to see Coldplay do it, since they're a much bigger mainstream band than Muse.

    I find it hard to believe Coldplay also doesn't have a very large "casual" fanbase.

     

    Will be interesting to see if anything rare actually gets played, though.

     

    They've already been doing it for their South American and European gigs this year, and generally the chosen songs have been old-ish singles and a few album tracks. Nothing super obscure like b-sides but still some songs that probably wouldn't get played otherwise. The equivalent of Muse playing stuff like B&H, Assassin, Hyper Music etc
